My car doesn't have a CD player. And don't tell me I can buy one of those little cassettes with a wire that goes to your CD player--I wouldn't have anything to put the cassette in. I'm also cheap, so I'm stuck with the radio. Also, I've never won Aerosmith tickets from a CD I've bought.
Well, when EULAs don't make sense they shouldn't be enforceable. If the EULA is like the GPL, LGPL or MPL licenses, then I wholeheartedly agree to them.
Possibly, but I believe SF only allows FSF-approved licenses, and I doubt this type of licensing will gain FSF approval, but that's not my decision. If this is approved or SF makes a slight policy change, then I assume they will implement that.

Well, it'd probably be in the EULA that the company *must* release the source after x dollars have been made. Otherwise people wouldn't really believe it. If you paid and the company doesn't release the source when specified, then you can sue.
How about 16 MIPS R14000A processors and 32 GB of RAM in a 4-rack-unit 'superbrick,' for a grand total of 128 processors and 256 GB of RAM in a single rack.
I don't think it was about urban v. rural--when the constitution was drafted, the founding fathers realized that there was no/., so people had no way of finding news about things on the other side of the country, and thus might be ill-informed.

Well, just think of the people that support this movement.
Well, when you sign up for a service that claims they "may" sell user information, it would be a simple matter to add said clause to the TOS.
By that logic, blocking spam is also theft.
Actually it is. "Dayton's (OH) rock station," 104.7 WTUE
But when TUE was bought out by ClearChannel in 1999 they kept the same callsign, format and DJs.
If you live near one of said billboards, mod a radio in your house to emit a very strong signal and leave it on all day.

Some stations are worse than others. The station I listen to seems to repeat songs pretty rarely.

1: Write Code
2: ???
3: Profit!
So why don't they sue the governments of the US, UK and any other country that uses the word "visa", since Visa owns the trademark to the word "visa".
Cigarette machine, but same thing.
I'd suggest contacting your local /. meetup. But then, it might be too late for that.
It doesn't seem that bad--as of now they only use these as samples. If they want me to buy one, screw them (o wait--I haven't bought a CD since 1998).
Wide-angle or zoom lens?
So you can google whack, but you can't altavista whack?
Now I won't have to buy books for next quarter.

Yep. Maybe I should switch to Windows ME.
Now that I'm booting Linux I'm beginning to miss the good old Windows BSOD.
Oops, wrong link. Try this one.
Note to the naive: don't click. Ever. I warned you.
