Also "Congressional Facebooks" have been in use since before the internet existed. Lots of politicians coming and going to keep track of.
I'd send you a link as evidence, but unfortunately it's going to take Google a while to add a search filter for "not as registered trademark".:(
The Solicitors Regulators Authority said the two Davenport Lyons lawyers 'knew that in conducting generic campaigns against those identified as IP holders whose IP numeric had been used for downloading or uploading of material that they might in such generic campaigns be targeting people innocent of any copyright breach.'
(My highlighting)
"IP numeric"? "IP holders"? They obviously aren't techies or tech-aware...
I believe they are just mixing acronyms poorly, and that it should be read as 'Intellectual Property holders (ie. possessors) whose Internet Protocol numeric (ie. number) had been used...'
So in legalese that just means, "people that did possess and did share copyrighted files, identified by computer logs".
Legalese is a lot older than techie speak. You're about 400 years too late for the 'can't speak English' joke.:) The lingo ain't gonna change to suit the way you think it should sound.
You do realize there *are* real criminals on the internet, right? It's not all grandma's shared MP3 collection.
The joke is criminals won't keep their servers within the geographic reach of this bill. So in order to flex their legal muscle some grandmas are going to get slammed.
Why?? It means that they're now in direct competition with zombies!
Previously it was a solids/liquids kinda thing. Now they'll have to fight over larger portions.
Well I hear in Zynga's lawsuit their proposed settlement includes the ChickenHawk (+150 ATK,+150 DEF) for Mafiawars, and 10 free chickens in Farmville.
Yes! It means I can finally throw my 3dfx card away. I think the only reason I've kept it this long is nostalgia. First "gaming" video card I ever bought with my own money, and a pretty important step in the industry too.
I notice he talks about controlling the book forever, so he would also like a copyright term of infinity?
Is his book about cryogenic freezing? It's logical that the first person to live well beyond a normal copyright term would also want to write a book about doing it. Just sayin'.
If ChiefMonkeyGrinder can draw these conclusions, what in tarnation could make you believe even for a moment that Microsoft PR is unwittingly acknowledging anything? Corporations make dumb decisions by committee, but they aren't actually staffed by... monkeys.
They are tacitly acknowledging their competitor, and Moody is pointing out that he has taken a few marketing workshops.
Historically, burning down a building doesn't make people forget it was there. The power of an institution in not in its foundations, but in its founding.
Whole summary is pretty corny... Bunching 10 random numbers into 3-3-4 doesn't make it a phone number. First, 683 is the country code for Niue, and apparently they are small enough to use only 4-digits for their subscribers. So 10 digits is too much. (Nothing is apparent for (68) 3077-0643 either.) Second, no telephone system that I am aware of supports 0 as the first number of a central office prefix, only as a subscriber number. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Numbering_Plan#Current_system
Many of the "e-book" titles available on Amazon would never make it to the printed stage. There is a growing contingent of $2-$10 "photo books", little more than hastily thrown together erotic photosets, some at web resolution, some inexplicably converted to greyscale (and poorly). Amazon has quietly become a supplier of zipsets that you can read with any Kindle app, and is including them in their sales figures. I won't link. They're easy to find.
I have to wonder if this influx of titles really took off after Apple started banning "Babe photo" apps. (Except the corporate-sponsored ones.)
Assuming that the 4.9 million barrels of oil number can be believed? That's the US consumption in about 6 hours. Pretty much a drop in the bucket when it comes right down to it.
It's a pity that proverbial drop has cost so many lives, livelihoods, lawsuits, and is in fact damaging a very real ecosystem that two months ago we could swim in. In this case it fell out of the bucket. What a difference 6 hours makes.
There is also wolfsrc.zip from 1996! FTP server seems to be in the midst of a slashdotting. Half of my downloads were 0 byte files the first couple tries.
Aren't we also dependent on the definition of broadband? Which hasn't been formally defined if wikipedia is to be believed. So why are they calling it poor rural broadband, instead of country-modem, city-modem?:)
He should have a copy transcribed, and release it in a torrent.
Hold up, you might be going for +funny, but did you just mean to imply that the author wrote his drafts on paper? Or that the publisher used a letter press? I realize some seasoned authors like to use a typewriter from time to time. But I can't imagine a publishing house that would not be doing digital typesetting in 2010.
Not to make psychological (or ludological) research sound trite, but it's not too terribly complicated... What's the appeal of a book? Or the appeal of a movie? Now add interaction. You get to decide what happens to the character between the start and the finish.
Video games offer the potential to recreate facets of the human condition in a more engrossing way than almost any other form of entertainment. We all start and finish the same way (birth and death), the interesting part is what happens along the way.
Which is why it's better to pick up a few 12 month cards on sale between now and November, save a few bucks, and choose to use them or resell them as you wish. I've seen posts where people have Gold memberships paid up to 2013, so likely you can use multiple codes now if you don't want to risk losing the cards.
And an increase of $0.84 a month really counts for a greed tag? Really/.? Would you rather go back to paying the same $50 for the features LIVE had in 2002? Not having a price increase for 8 years seems like a good deal to me. Think about what they can do in the next 8 years now that they don't have the old system weighing it down.
If you're about to say that it took 8 years for them to add enough features to be worth $50, I will kick you in the shins. You don't get to play in our fort.

What if the offender posts a video wearing a monk's robe begging forgiveness for the misunderstanding?
Oh, that's also stealing their IP? Shucks.
Oh no! Not my top secret award winning BBQ Ribs recipe!
I've had your ribs. If by "top secret" you mean "use chicken" believe me, it wasn't a secret for long.

So it's a way of hiding something in time, without anyone really knowing anything is being hidden.
In my day we'd just loop the video feed. Kids today think they hafta be some kinda Neo to pull a heist.
Not likely, we have a special image of the universe 400,000 years after it formed,
Is it one of those images that you have to fuzz your vision to see the sailboat? I fucking hate those.

Zynga flipping their customers the bird again.
They don't, they have a PR policy.
Fortunately Privacy and PR have at least two letters in common. So it's like the same thing, only shorter to read...
But 80% of that 90% will only read The Full Changelog.

Defying the notion that mathematicians are over the hill at age 30,
Wait 'till you hit 31, that's when mathematicians are in their prime.

Key parts of the reactor construction are being overseen by AREVA subsidiaries, the parent company of which is +90% owned by the French state.

The race was tight between Japan and France, and France then became the hosting partner. Most of France's attention to nuclear energy is fission, but they have subsidiaries devoted to renewable and fusion.
