    Yes, and there have been other similar projects like the CMU coke machine. I omitted the full disclosure that I am actually pro thing connectivity just so long as it is done right. That why I threw in the part about the cloud. Teapots on a LAN is fine, as is controlling it securely, but let's not get carried away and let corporations gather data on our tea habits, and by logical extension, everything else.

    Let's not pretend that an unvaccinated child is in any way like a child playing with a loaded gun, first of all. From there let's admit that the children of these people are already in the general population and the dire consequences you are claiming aren't a reality. Then, and only then, can we have a reasonable dialog founded in reality.

    Actually you sound incredibly naive, not fascist. It sounds like you really lack the life experience to understand why that is a truly dangerous idea. A few deaths is bad, but the death of freedom from state mandated injections is far, far worse.

    I prefer the words "You can't fix stupid", but probably because, while he did say "stupid is forever", that was merely a segue to his actual shtick. They might find a vaccine for stupidity someday, but they won't use it, thereby cementing the veracity of his tagline. :^)

    This was just very forward thinking in preparation for IoT. Now, when your teapot can't connect to cloud it can tell you what the problem is ... "I am trying to connect to the internet and E418"

    There are a lot of reasons to criticize the younger set and doing the job for money rather than because they love it is one of them, but even I think accusing them of being in it just for the health plan is taking it too far.

    No. You are the one who doesn't get it, even though you actually said it: You are selling *the CD*, not the software. You don't own the bits. You can't sell the bits. You do own the physical medium, which is what you can charge money for. Off you go now ...

    You must be one blissful motherfucker to not get that both Kim Kardashian and Linus Torvolds have no obligation to comply with the wishes of a third party. In other news, if someone is selling my trash they can't sue me for bringing it directly to the landfill to stop them from profiting. Tortious Interference is not hard to understand, but you have to have a passing familiarity with logic, which alas, you lack.

    You seem to be unaware that peek has nothing to do with it as that is reading a location, when you poke you are writing machine code to a location not assembly, and you need to use call if you want any of this information to be of any use, which you left out completely.

    I was writing assembly for the Apple II back when the TRaSh-80 was being sold, and I also had access to the TRaSh-80. I didn't say it didn't happen. I said the same thing you used different words to say. As with the Apple II, almost nobody wrote in assembly language, because again, it had a BASIC interpreter in ROM. There was a significant barrier to writing in assembly, and the vast majority did not do it. It is true today and it was true then. Almost nobody writes in assembly language. You should know that given your SlashID.

    The target market was people who didn't even have access to real computers back then, as the summary states. Those who did referred to it as the TRaSh-80. Almost nobody programmed it in assembly. It had a BASIC interpreter in ROM, which is what you were in when you powered it on. People know how to program in assembly today. BASICally, you just got snide acting superior when you clearly lack even a passing knowledge of the subject matter. Good Job!

    You need to get an education. There must be lack of privilege on the part of the third party to induce such a breach, and Linus has full privilege to do whatever he wants with the Linux kernel. The paparazzi example is perfect as nobody is talking about speech, but action. The celebrity closes their blinds to stop them from making money, but it isn't tortious interference because, like Linus, they have full privilege to do so. Now seriously, you are the one with no clue WTF you are talking about, so go spend your time getting an education instead of making yourself look like an idiot here.

    There is something called the LGPL that libraries use to solve this issue (but the L stands for "lesser", not "library" as one might first assume). So ask YOURSELF this, why do they need an LGPL if I am wrong?
