When I'm on I-15 I expect anything, including people doing over 100. (*)
At least they're awake. Which is more than can be said about many drivers on that road. So many killed by falling asleep that warning s are put on the highway radio stations in Nevada and California.
(*) Heck, I saw COPS doing about 120 to get to the scene of yet another SUV rollover.
Shutting down usenet would involve shutting down a majority of the nodes, which isn't practical.
Not in a free society, but to say it is always impractical is wrong.
If the government instituted beheading for having a USENET node, it would work (well there would be some renegades who didn't lose their head, either figuratively or literally).
The penalty in pre-war Iraq for having an Internet capable computer without permission was in fact beheading, so this isn't just a theoretical argument.
Burma/Myanmar has been recently cut off the Internet by gov't dictate.
"Knowing that it is stolen property; or Under such circumstances as should have caused a reasonable person to know that it is stolen property." is the standard.
Also, the is the question of intent that goes with any crime except "strict liability" crimes (of which there are few - usually things such as speeding and other regulatory offenses and the special case of age of consent laws in some jurisdictions).
As regards stolen property, if you get convicted, you likely deserve it. "Whaddya mean those 300 free diamonds were jacked?! Idda neva have guessed!:)" Uh huh.
P.S. What you say might be true in some jurisdictions I grant you - but not all.
McDonald's is a FAMOUS mark (which have specially additional rules), and you could get sued and lose, even if you did only do business in an unrelated field.
There was a program called xroom or xrooms and I know I used it in or before 1993 (so it very well could've existed before 1991), which let you set up different workspaces ("rooms") in which windows could exist in one, some, or all of them, and switching between rooms would leave the ubiquitous windows alone, show the windows that exist in that room, but not the previous one, and hide those windows that existed in the previous room but not the current one.
It was quite cool and useful, especially when twm was THE window manager.
If it existed before the patent it is very likely prior art.
The quality of the scientific articles and comments on slashdot are absolutely atrocious lately....failure of the insulin-producing beta cells of the liver.
Case in point! Beta cells are in pancreas, not the liver!
(possibly unless you have metastatic pancreatic cancer)
You don't really have "type 2", at least in the US you wouldn't be considered to. The treatment may be similar, but you would be said to have "other type" diabetes.
Because insulin resistance alone doesn't cause type 2 diabetes. Your beta cells need to fail to produce enough insulin to overcome the resistance for it to become diabetes.
Fixing the production loss means you go back to being insulin resistant "non-diabetic" (as far as sugar levels go, once diabetic, always so, at least by current definitions).
Yeah you still have the insulin resistance, which isn't good, but you'd be way better off.
Fixing the insulin resistance would be even better, but perhaps if that is all one did; production would still not be enough or keep declining until it was too low.
Come to Southern Nevada, where the local utility (Nevada Power) charges approximately $0.13/kWh and you'll find a LOT of people who care because they have electric bills over $300 or even $400 a month! It's not as much about being green as it is about keeping your green.
That might not work. Acting crazy might make one LESS suspicious, since they'd think you were just one of the local crazies who are everywhere, instead of a real criminal or terrorist.

If you want to speed in Nevada, you can do it legally at this event:

Gold plated isn't expensive enough for NASA.
Try platinum plating.
Or something more exotic (and expensive) such as rhodium plating.

Dilution, damaging to reputation, etc.
Watts per Application User is the real important benchmark, unfortunately you can only figure it out for specific cases.
You got a year in the US after releasing the info to patent it.
If I can't use X on Linux, I'll have to switch my Linux machines to Windows.

Much more practical to sue Satan.

Fixing both problems will be best.
That law means when the Feds want to hook up their snoop device you can't say no.
No rule that you must be monitoring and keeping backups ahead of time.
So the Feds can't just get past data, they can only get data from AFTER they decided they needed it.
Sometimes you have to restrict freedom to protect it.

Actually it is supposed to be the other way around:

If Comcast knew what kind of products I was interested in
:)
Like internet with more than a (secret) 100GB/month limit?
Windows 7 will be the product that decides the future of Microsoft. They simply can't afford two crappy releases in a row.
As opposed to how many in the past?
Can ya be a gettin' that new OS to me 'morrow? *fnzownt*
Giving them Microsoft Vista would be a worse punishment.

They even have 4th mortgages now. How soon before someone offers a 5th mortgage? Or is that illegal?
It was true when prices were going up, but not now since prices are going down.
Which is why they'll likely make it much harder to get loans for high-risk borrowers.
