I'm imagining the situation was this... Someone set the AC to be on from 9am to 3pm (but really set it to 9pm to 3am) and next day tried setting it again, this time correctly but with both time periods set.
You can be fired for any reason. An interesting story I recently read was that you can be fired for medical marijuana use, even if it is not affecting your job performance. http://www.komonews.com/news/local/123571074.html (Supreme Court: Medical marijuana users can be fired)
This hack on Codemasters was days before their new big game came out, Dirt 3. What you may not know about Dirt 3 is the new "online pass" feature used to prevent second hand sales and piracy. What this online pass feature really did was prevent legit purchasers of Dirt 3 from playing online (because PSN was down) and from getting all the single player content (because of the online pass and PSN being down).
This just looks like the world balancing itself out. You know, Karma.
That is not the question we should be concerned with. The question is why is the Principal (?) against the video and the student's teacher for it (by helping him produce said video).
As per the Canadian Copyright Act, it is legal as long as you are the one doing the copying and it is for your ears only. It can be copied from an original or a 2nd generation copy (but your friend that gave you that 2nd gen copy has no committed a crime). Both are legal as long as you are the one personally doing the copying. If you personally make a copy and that copy is for your self only, it is all legal. If you give that 2nd gen copy to anyone, you have now committed a crime.
"Yes," said Arthur, "yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying 'Beware of the EULA'."
Every time digital information comes up, people talk about costs for storage and distribution. You seem to imply it costs big money for these things. If so, how are companies that provide newsgroup access able to do it for so cheap? Less than $10 a month and you have access to many TB of data with many weeks of retention.
That is the point, clearly you can see that the fastest action is the one with the least amount of human interaction. Do you want some automated process available so that others can take down your work easily?

Everyone needs to eat.
What about the 3rd party levels/textures for games like quake1+2, descent1+2, duke3d.

To read more on the subject, do an internet search for: html loop OR iterate "not a programming"

The answer is Asus' EEE Transformer that costs $399. It also has a microsd slot, that an ipad does not have.

"Apple is not selling a competing app."
MS was not selling Internet Explorer either.
Ideas are a dime a dozen. A finished "product" is all that matters. This guy had his product out before Apple.
Nice rant there. Stallman is talking about DRM and such, not that everything should be free.
That is not the question we should be concerned with. The question is why is the Principal (?) against the video and the student's teacher for it (by helping him produce said video).
America uses those games as recruitment tools
What does it smell like when ipods are given away with every apple computer purchased by a student? Apple usually has this same promo every summer.
The summary has the word "company" in it. Learn to read.
When Apple and Creative had their mp3 players out, one was the size of a deck of cards and the other was the size of a portable cd player http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0f/Creative_Nomad_Jukebox_(DAP).jpg . THAT is why one was more popular than the other.

Perhaps software engineering and programming are not a real profession like being a Doctor or Lawyer. In those jobs, they get schooling and training.
"It shouldn't be too surprising to find they have different attitudes to things like this."
It also shouldn't be too surprising to find it believable that they might later remove this feature.
PSN was down, so he had no other option than to go outside to play.
"But look, you found the notice didn't you?"
"Yes," said Arthur, "yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying 'Beware of the EULA'."
A bunch of jerks on the internet that have pwned Sony's top scientists and engineers.
I only read the first few sentences of your reply but have to say that cheating on ps3 existed before piracy on ps3.
I'm thinking they only failed because at the time they (tablets with windows) cost a lot (over $2000)
From the number of people I see complaining in #ps3 on efnet, psn is down.
