Nuclear reactors have to be built near rivers so they can use the water for the cooling. Sometimes these rivers just happen to constitute a border. In fact, most French reactors are fairly far away from any border.
Well, I scrolled down to the bottom of the page and the first thing I saw was your post. You failed, utterly.
The only way I can avoid reading a spoiler is if 1. There is a spoiler warning above it (of course) 2. It's inside running text instead of an isolated bullet point (as bullet points are too easy to read in order not to do it).
You're crazy. We cannot even build automatic cars and you want computer-controlled planes? That just cannot work -- maybe for regular flight, but when anything out of the ordinary happens I very much prefer a human to be in control.
It's not about better or worse. The government requiring corporations (and people, by extension) to pay compensation for damage done to the environment doesn't interfere with the market any more than enforcing property rights does.
Unless it was butchered beyond recognition in the English translation, the article doesn't say that authors were paid better than in England at the time but I guess it is possible.
Here's the part that says that (my quick & dirty translation):
The German knowledge initiative led to a curious stituation which sure enough nobody noticed at this time, though: Sigismund Hermbstädt, a long-forgotten professor of chemistry and pharmacy from Berlin, earned a higher royalty with his work "Fundamentals of Leather Work" than the British author Mary Shelley with her famous horror novel "Frankenstein"
A German court (for example) has ruled that a small developer who advertised his products as "DRM free" accepts/encourages piracy and as such has much less options when fighting copyright violations.
A few weeks ago, I read an article about the lack of copyright in Germany in the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century. Compared to England - where copyright had been introduced a long time ago - there were significantly more books available at cheaper prices. The authors were paid better, too.
If the employee doesn't like the policy, he can either make a convincing case the employer why it would benefit everyone to change it, or try to find another employer with a different policy.

Just crank it up to 11.0, putting it ahead of Mac OS.

Because I don't use it?
(Of course, there might be other reasons too, but I'd have to RTFS to find them out.)
Much like Thunderbird appears in Firefox's software update marked "other software you might want".
Screenshot? Source? I've never seen when updating Firefox. (And I'm on Windows)
Oh wait, what about fidonet and pbboard. Those were the days! Surely the infrastructure still exists.
Sure.
Most of which were by people who directly knew him (i.e. Plato) as opposed to someone who lived in 1953.

Star Wars is not a whodunit. Finding out who it is isn't quite the point of the movies.
What if pretty much all mail from a person is in fact important?

Here's the previous licence
If he's changed the licence after publishing, it's too late - the app is open source. You can't pull back a licence you've already granted.
(Providing the previous licence actually was open source, but I don't see why not.)

To bad the only approved way of registering your work will be to send in a package of 8" floppies by mail.

If you add the tone marks, it should be fine. Otherwise, the whole language would be unusable for speaking.
In some of the scandinavian countries you have the right to hike (almost) everywhere you want, even if the ground is privately owned.
Germany? We have a coalition of conservatives and neo-liberals, neither are even remotely "union-owned" in any way.

Reductio ad absurdum is a perfectly valid form of argument. The principle is the same, whether it is about genocide or about having to pay a fee.
Americans are NOT required to carry ID at all times.
Neither are us Germans (yet), we only have to own one. Most people do carry it, though.

Volunteering doesn't have to be recorded publically - you can just tell someone what you did if it was a good thing.
