There are no hate speech laws that I know of, but if "hate speech" is added into a normal crime often times it becomes a "hate crime" with much worse sentencing and punishment. Apparently, it is worse to mug someone because you hate them, instead of just needing money and being nice about it.
Your mistake in this issue is assuming YouTube should be fair. It is not. This is not government censorship, more like a private club telling her not to say that in their clubhouse. This girl can say her opinion all she wants out in public. YouTube doesn't need to re-air it. They probably shouldn't leave death threats up, but that's the point of this entire article. It is unfeasible for YouTube to screen every video posted. If you don't like the death threat vids, report them.
But you will have a problem with that. This isn't about free OTA broadcasts. If this renders commercials moot to the point that no one advertises on TV (free OTA or pay channels) the channels will charge even higher fees for cable and satellite companies to carry their channels. Then cable and satellite channels will no longer be subsidized by ads and will get more expensive.
You couldn't be more wrong. Some times renting is cheaper. If I need a U-Haul to move across town one time, it is definitely cheaper to rent one for the day instead of buying a U-Haul truck. The same is true with cars. If I go on vacation somewhere for 2 weeks, it is much cheaper to rent a car than to buy one for the time I'm there.
If you need to have the vehicle everyday, than yes, buying is probably cheaper. For infrequent usage, renting may just be the better option.
The difference of course is that additive processes are mostly concerned with making a piece that is the right shape. The microstructure of the produced piece may be woefully inadequate compared to other methods of production.
My photo collection is mostly all places I've been and sights I've seen, but this is still photo-documentation to me. I can look at a landscape photo I took somewhere and think back to the time I was there. Rendered images will not replace someone's personal memorabilia. It may replace commercial photography, but individuals will still take pictures of people and places.
I see you lamenting the lack of angle brackets in your post, so I don't know if you were serious or not about all your points.
If Apple does put voice recognition in a TV set, it will be typical that most people will think they are an amazing innovator, even though there are voice recognition TVs available now. Samsung Smart TV
I think a lawyer could argue that the original KS had been published as it was accessible to the public. It was published by a bug, but it's debatable that it was indeed published.
What exactly does half-naked mean? I would assume either her top half or her bottom half had no clothes on, but it just seems to be her in a sheer outfit. I hope they got better pictures when they hacked her phone.
The thing about Piracy is, the people who pirate are not people who would have paid for it in the first place.
I've already read 2 other posts of people that did pirate the cam version and then went to go see the movie. Piracy has a lot of use cases. The only one that costs the content producers money is when a person was going to pay for the content, but pirated instead and decides that is all they need. What % of pirated copies falls into this use case is a big unknown. I have a feeling it isn't very high and a lot of pirates wouldn't have been paying customers like you said, but I don't believe that 100% of pirates would have never paid.
Obviously crocodillians and sharks change over time. Crocs and gators are considered to be among the least changed animals from the Cretaceous period, so they haven't been changing all that much relative to other animal species.
150ft is half a football field. That's American football. I'm sure that will clear it up for you./sarcasm
I understand that the unit of feet is not common around the world, but do you not know what a foot is? They are the things at the end of your legs that have those 5 toes attached. If you measure it from ankle to toe, it's probably around a foot in length. That's not gonna cut it for any accurate measurement, but should help you visualize the unit of a foot.
Then there is Google, which will gladly convert from feet to meters, Angstroms, fathoms or whatever other unit of length you want.
It may have no basis in a religious text, but I've heard people say this exact sort of crap. It's their misguided attempt to compress all of prehistory to 6 days or some such nonsense. Couldn't really have dinosaurs live and die within days, God must have put their bones there to test our faith, etc.
Most of the rhetoric today is not about dealing with these corrections, but about trying to stop them all. Does anyone think we could stop all the hurricanes or earthquakes? I don't, so what are the odds we can stop the climate from readjusting if conditions warrant it?
Hulu is locking out folks who can't fax a current cable bill
I dropped my cable and they send me a bill every month saying they owe me $2 and some change for an over payment. I wonder if Hulu would accept this bill as me having cable?
Are you honestly asking for advice on what to do in your evenings on/.? Is it really getting to the point where no one can think of things to do that aren't watching TV? Go read a book, go outside and get some exercise, paint a picture, play a game, build a robot love doll, do whatever it is that you enjoy doing.
Is 250GB not enough to stream some video? I'm assuming this is a monthly cap. That's like 2 single layer DVDs every day. I would never go over this cap unless I tried to stream HD content. My weak speed kind of prevents that though.
Personally, I wouldn't deal with these assholes. I switched my ISP from the cable guys to the telco solely because the cable guys started a cap and the telco has none. If the cable companies cap had preferred services that circumvent it, I would have been even more upset.
Sounds perfectly reasonable to me. Kind of like a non-compete clause in an employment contract, but more of a don't provide favoritism for a cushy job clause. I think we shouldn't stop them from getting these jobs completely, but at least make them wait a couple of years after leaving their govt job before they can work for one of these companies.
He wasn't in Pakistan, nor coming from there, when he was found with the porn. Read the fine article before spouting off like you know what you're talking about.
"He had recently returned from Pakistan via Budapest, Hungary, and then traveled overland to Germany." That's the second sentence in the fine article.
I can clear this up for you. When he was stopped in Germany, he wasn't in Pakistan. That's obvious. He also was not travelling directly from Pakistan as the article mentions he traveled overland from Budapest. What the GP was implying by this I don't know. Perhaps that it would look less suspicious to hid porn in your pants if you were flying direct from Pakistan, but not after a long trip overland through Eastern Europe.
If that's the case, Hulu will only lose 25% of their business. Maybe less, if it convinces some people to get cable again, but I find that hard to believe. Sounds like an awesome business plan.
The problem with this line of thought, is that it assumes that people MUST watch this content. Taking one's business elsewhere could mean doing any activity to fill one's free time. If there are no other options for legally watching this stuff without onerous fees and hoops to jump through, people can either pirate it, or do other things with their lives.

Just because it was briefly available to the public doesn't mean it's been published for the public to see/hear.
It does provide a valid basis to argue that the idea already existed for a patent case. I'm not saying it would work.

Aside from voting, you can do all of those after December 21st. I know lots of people that do that already.

Yeah, I can see your point. Especially with the teenagers.
Does anyone know how much data is consumed by the popular streaming services? How much data goes over the wire to stream an hour on Netflix or Hulu?

Will somebody think of the porn actresses! As if they didn't have enough stuffed in them, now they are being violated by terrorists' messages.
