like the advice. ive found the hardest thing to replace in the office is the white board. I haven't found a digital version that is as fast and easy. I just wanted to say that im my opinion that you should be using much of this software even if you are not working remotely. bug tracking and project management especially. i find the most useful software to be desktop sharing software. makes showing your weekly progress so much easier. i also think that the video conference bets out the conference call any day of the week; it engages people alot more.
They already got it back from the government. Unless you think Google gave them 30% of the gross income(50 billion) they made last year, like many individuals do every year.
People dont like new right aways so companies loose in sales, thus people dont make them all that often. if you want new games vote with you wallets and dont buy remakes. to bad that is never going to happen. you almost have to trick people into liking new things by making gradual changes from the old stuff.
I would argue that a hard drive wipe would not satisfy many of these people. They see 'new' in the next cube over and want one. these employee still get the same 'old' hardware after a wipe, even if it is just as fast as the 'new' stuff. We have been conditioned to love new things.
End of Content Ownership? Seems more like the start of a great discussion on ownership. This is what the public really need to get excited about a legitimate conversation on the subject, real implications about what the average person can or cant do with stuff we have always thought we owned.
obviously this mean that he cant write any more ps3 hacks, but does it also extend to writing about the issues involved. e.g. holtz is never again able to write / talk about anything with the word Playstation in it?
does this mean they can take all of my luggage for no reason at all. The government needs to stop making rulings about digital ownership and the ownership of the physical hardware that is my laptop, just because it is convenient way to not give me the rights that i deserve.
guess we will all have to run VM's and switch to thin client laptops. can't wait for the excuse for that one.
Please excuse my ignorance. but how is this illegal? companies do this all the time over the web. tracking where you log in from, how long you are one each page, and what sites you visit every time most people use the Internet. I think this practice is defiantly immoral, but give how constrictive contracts are I don't see how this is against the law. if you could point me towards some case law or a brief it would be much appreciated.
However this is a problem that the entire software field faces. java tried to solve this problem with the jvm, but then Microsoft released.net and created another choice for developers and companies.
i think choice is more good than bad. the alternative means you are stuck with what is there.
You are going to continue to lose money with this attitude and that is not in the best interest of your shareholders. By making things more difficult you will drive away customers that want to compensate you for your product. The economics of music distribution are changing, and you can change with them or wither away trying to fight them, so dont get angry, use that passion to move the industry forward with new brilliant strategies and technologies.
also you talk about shareholder, but do not mention artists. I hope you realize that this shows your true feeling towards the people who make you who you are.
btw, are you really suggesting the judicial system should put your legal cases before those that are for the health, wellbeing and safety of the community?
They rather sue to support their dinosaur of a business model than inovate and keep the status quo.
It is expensive and risky to innovate. change cost a lot of $ for companies so of course they are going to fight it. I can't bash them too hard for doing something they believe is in their best interests, after all we let them do so as consumers. Because they are large organizations that can't change very fast so they need to slow innovation down to help compete.
However i support the new business model that is still maturing that lets people provide their own content. The major content providers are in a losing battle at a change or die crossroads.
anyone really believe that a jury would be able to make these types of distinctions? all they see is we tracked something back to your house without regard to how trustworthy the data is. it happens all the time with other forensic techniques increasing the number false convictions.
I hope this will force people to look more carefully at the argument the industry has been trying to use and maybe people will realize that one download does not equal one lost music sale. does anyone know the specifics on a counter suit for frivolous lawsuits? seems to me that is is apparent that everyone knows some of the facts and conjectures are false, but they sued anyway knowing full well they didnt lose the amount of cash they claimed.
I can't believe that i took this long for an organization to show original content over the Internet considering there were companies in the late '90s that tried to offer an Internet based substitute for tv. Hulu needs to start offering some original content(to bad they dont have deeper pockets)
torrents aren't solely made for distributing copyrighted contents ether. i use them regularly to download software that is not illegal. they are a faster and robust mechanism to download anything. although this arguments is not valid for sites whose sole purpose is to provide illegal content, but there are a good deal of sites that dont fit that category. i could use pirate bay to post my own legal video is if i wanted to. it should be notated that the supreme court hasn't found this an adequate argument in the past though.
the artists on these site always LOOSE, they would be far better off flipping burgers somewhere..
music artists may loose on cd sales, but they gain on promotion costs. musicians dont make alot off of cd sales anyway, even if they do belong to a label. bands make alot more doing concerts.
PC has aways been on the frontier. they were the first a allow online play, the first to allow chating while playing, and first to allow comparing achievements with others online.
Anyone know what the statistics are for violation rates outside the mobile market?, or on other devices? I don't find the statistic provided really surprising though, since there are less options to protect your code. with free code you could run it through an obfuscator. Are legal options the only ones available to opensource projects to protect your code?

What constitutes a fold? more than a 90 degree change in direction? Any other special rules anyone can thing of?
some more than once. how many times does Spock die throughout the series / movies ?

also. Best value and lowest price are two different things.

This is how business works. Microsoft should be used to it. stop crying.
