Sure, downloads happen through iTunes, but it would still behoove Apple to point searches for songs to iTunes in some way, even if through some intermediary that launches iTunes to actually make the download.
Which is probably why Google were surprised that Apple is not already doing so. Not that that has anything at all to do with copyright infringement.
I don't see this as being a criminal act, but given the way that it was carried out, I think the casino has every right to demand 9/10 of his winnings back.
You win a game at the $1 level, exploit a bug to change your cash level to $10 before accepting the payout, and then accept your payout. Well, you didn't actually make the bet at the $10 level, so you shouldn't expect your winnings to be multiplied by 10, but that's what's happening here. I'd argue that he's still entitled to the original 1x amount and let the casino ban him if they want to.
I can opt out of wearing the goggles, so I don't have to be concerned with google pushing ads into my eyeballs. I can't opt out of other people capturing me with their goggles, but this is hardly different than people collecting video in public spaces with cameraphones or more traditional video capture devices. Google themselves could pay people to wander around public spaces and collect video, surreptitiously or otherwise.
Sometimes it undermines credibility when you display ignorance like that. If he created a sprocket and called it a spring, I'd expect the same criticism.
I thought this was about making sure students were coming to school on the days they should be, attending the classes that they should be, nor leaving campus during the day, etc. Now we're talking about revenue? From where does that revenue actually come?
Local news media are already saying it's not even available to everyone. They're bundling it for certain people and making it an optional extra for others, and they're really going to have to stretch to come up with good reasons why someone would want to pay extra for an RFID band on a single-day ticket, considering that single day admission is already nearly $100, and you'll be lucky if you get to ride 6 or 8 rides due to the length of lines.
I have CS2 running on W7 x64. I remember I had a heck of a time installing it because it wanted to install by default into the Program files (x86) folder, and no amount of reselecting the folder would avert that, but I did somehow manage to get it to install (and run) perfectly fine. It's been a while so I can't remember exactly how I did it, but it came up in google searches. I seem to recall it was pretty trivial stuff.
It's not really disturbing. This is common in small-town America. The parents might be successful members of the community, they might know local government figures who can quietly plead with the small police force to investigate selectively. The mayor's son and the police chief's son might be on the same team. They might be all banding together to protect their kids from a lifelong fate that resulted from a terrible thing they did when they were a bunch of stupid kids.
Note that I'm not condoning this AT ALL. It's totally believable, though.
So can anonymous tips be used in investigation? How can it be known whether the information in a tip was collected legally if the police didn't collect it? And therefore how can any information discovered from following such a tip be allowed?
Is that how it works? If prosecutors aren't directly involved in the acquisition of the evidence (i.e.: soliciting anonymous to collect it), I thought it was admissible.
Yahoo is little more than AOL at this point. I see them as struggling to find a place among other better and more useful brands like Bing and Google. You'd think they would want to BOND with a brand becoming such as RIM who is also becoming less and less relevant by the hour.
As a recent convert from C# to Java, it's hard to deny the very obvious influence Java had on C#. I see C# basically as a port of Java in most instances.
A cell phone carrier is somehow NOT liable or subject to the same punishments if a user of their 3G cell services posts defamatory content via their mobile browser.
"Mousing", as in your ability to manipulate the mouse. The mouse itself should obviously be accurate.
I just meant the dexterity required in order to be proficient at mousing is very low. It doesn't require extensive training and use to master. For example, my three year old niece's typing is for shit. However, she can get the mouse around and click on things no problem.
As a lefty, I always thought it was a good thing that the mouse is on the right. Mousing isn't something that requires incredible accuracy, and the accuracy it does require is easily learned in a rather small amount of time, so long as my hand was compatible with the ergonomics of the mouse, I was in good shape. And it freed up my left hand for combination keystrokes and shortcuts and one-handed typing, which definitely requires more deliberate movements and precision than right-handed mousing does for a lefty.
You should suggest that they get together and open a store filled with products which cater to the left-handed people to address this persecution. Some sort of emporium of left-handedness. A leftorium, if you will.

So no one should develop technologies for legitimate applications because they could potentially be used for nefarious purposes?

Specs! I get it!
Hey, I'd like to buy some of those drugs. Hit me up on iMessage at 407-TOTALLY-NOT-A-COP.

I don't really get the controversy.
You're both right - set a precedent for approving TLDs for commercial entities under the auspices of diversity and then the floodgates are open.
Ahh, so because the right word can create ambiguity in an imbiciles brain, you don't have to use it.
I guess I'll start using the deceleratrix since people may not know what I mean by brake pedal.

It's so easy. I can do it only with my mind. Works every time.
Because IT stuff is easy. I mean, you just type some things and click a few buttons, right? That's not hard. Why do you need 100k a year to do that?
Should the United Kingdom be told to use uk.gov instead of .uk? Et al.
