In France, private copy was always legal, but the fact that it stayed legal for so long is because "private copy tax" was introduced on all storage media (blank CDs/DVDs, memory cards, hard drives). This tax is per MB, and has never been updated, which means that you sometimes pay more tax on a new hard drive than the drive is worth.
I read the title in my RSS feed, and still opened it. I knew it was going to end-up in a Fanboys vs. Haters and I still opened it. Well, better get back to work...
This is why the French, in French Guiana, are offering their assistance. We have quite a long experience of launching payload into orbit from Kourou with Ariane...
In the same way that the London 7/7 terrorist attacks are now refered to as the "7/7 bombings" and not a terrorist attack anymore. It's just when the wound starts to heal. Norway will probably remember it as the Utoya Island massacre.
Is anyone willing to do it for free? Because at a moment when the US are struggling to stay afloat and are likely to default payments in the next 2 months, I don't think anyone in your Congress will allow for a 20+ bn USD program...
Same here. As much as they don't want to "Do no evil", they're also pretty fond of their advertising revenue, which this malware is cutting them from. Somehow, I believe Googl-iath wins this one and David goes home with a sore head.
Just saying what? That the hypocritical Germans are going to keep burning the filthiest fuel available, polluting the rest of the world just to regain their precious nuclear virginity?
Last time I checked, hymens didn't re-grow. So really, they'll only be menopaused.

Hopefully it won't get like that in the UK...
Not any more than when the rapists lose their license for dating patients.
There, FTFY. You'd misread. Now you know why they lost their license.
Damn! I spent my last mod points yesterday...

Communism died with the Berlin Wall being torn down. Why the hell did the GPL and FSF not follow? Will they never learn?
I think you'll find it's a thousand different cheeses. Or at least that's what the ads say :-)
As an American, I know I am. (...) Maybe some day in the future a nice country can come along and liberate us.
Bougez pas, on arrive !

1) It's called the moderation system, and
2) "Like" is deprecated. It's "+1" you're looking for.
Obama slashdotted his own communication services. Some people never learn hey?!
yeah but guys, if you had the right equipment available, this is publicly available information. you could gather it too.
it's not like they're sniffing around our phones. or we haven't caught them doing so yet anyway...
You'd only be easier to pickpocket from...

Off with their heads!!
You obviously have a boss with a rock-hard ass. Can you share a few pics of her? Just for future reference of course...
Why regret buying an iPhone I never did. Its overpriced and behind the curve...
I don't know about that... The Bold, maybe, but the Curve?!
I honestly believe that the only result of blocking this address would result in more and more users of Tor (or the like).
HTC is the object of all my desires!
they can only be trusted with bribery and rape...

That is your opinion. The GPL harmed the Apache project so much that it had to fork and split its developer base...
