You're pretending that this isn't your problem, but you're wrong. You and North Korea are the biggest red flags on this planet and you are close enough together that you're bound to catch big shrapnel from fire returned on your comrades/neighbors/whatever.
You are the giant on the world stage. What are you going to do?
They are asking you to take on a a role as salesman in addition to your normal duties. There's nothing wrong with that. In fact, if you have any ethical objection to selling what you make, then you shouldn't be making it in the first place.
Tell them your considerations about being an ethical salesman and the proper rewards for being one.
Replace everything they stole and put the empty boxes out on the curb. Turn out the lights and duck down behind your new flatscreen. When the scumbags come in, blow their brains out with a big gun.
Then, take a picture of their blood and guts. Print the picture at 12x24 feet and put it on your roof.
It's not the government's responsibility to protect a bunch of rich football dickheads in a private stadium. If the ticketholders can afford to spend $500/seat then they can afford to chip in to buy their own security.
I'd love to see an MIT-type hack like this one just to embarrass Deputy Fife.
That's not true. For one thing, "made in America" includes Canada and Mexico which puts most U.S. models ahead of Toyota and Honda. If you limit the definition of "made in America" to U.S.-only and consider the entire fleet that a company sells here, the U.S. brands still come out ahead.
People should buy whatever suits them but they shouldn't pretend to be patriotic when they're driving Japanese cars on American roads.
MS leaves thousands of gates and windows open and then struts around like Barney Fife when it catches a few kids sneaking through. Are you as clueless as you seem or are you just messin' with us?
I see what you mean. The main thing is that something needs to be done to break the dynasties that are being built by a few at the expense of the many.
I think it's reasonable to deal with copyrights, trademarks and patents differently because, despite certain common factors, they are different. And I don't limit my ideas about copyright to artistic materials. Technical journals and manuals should, IMO, be handled the same way but possibly with different term lengths.
I lazily used "wife and kids" as an example because they are the usual beneficiaries. I should have said that the author should be able to will his copyrights to whatever legal entity he wants, including the public domain. By the same token he should be able to sell them before he dies. But, no transfer should change the fixed term.
I'm referring only to copyrights, not trademarks or patents.
I'm a bit torn on the idea of taking away control while a person is still alive but I think some people may, uh, live too long. The other problem with tying copyright terms solely to the author's lifetime is that a person might publish one day and get hit by a car the next. Shouldn't his wife and kids inherit the rights to his work?

Buy a car that has tires instead of rubber bands on the wheels you fucking moron.

Here in Massachusetts, they cannot legally refuse to refund money for a defective item which they represented as a working product.

Dodd is a cunt and everyone knows it.

Problem solved.
That's not one of the choices.
Boston is actually pretty good as far as major cities go. It does suck, just not as bad as most.
But let them (cops, captains, chief, IAD, DA) pull the same shit again and heads will roll. This is a win for the good guys no matter how you cut it.
I don't know, but he might be one of them pinko jews. I wish we had more of them.
Because Jews respect human intellect. You would have to be anti-jewish to not keep them.
Me too. Texas is not the United States. Just ask a Texan.
California IS a cancer.
They're gotten to be almost as bad as Toyota, Honda, VW and MB.
Too bad it didn't say "fuck off and die, you fascist pigs."
They bowl, silly.

The next thing you know, cardpunches will be declared to be terrorist tools.

Well said. I disagree about the term being tied to a person's lifetime, though. I think it should be a fixed number of years and be inheritable.
LOL
