If that's true now, it didn't used to be true. There's plenty of R rated movies from the 70s and 80s that had a few frames of penis or female pubic hair.
The constitution does not limit the freedom of the populace to do anything.
It gives the federal government specific powers, lists specific rights that the federal government is not allowed to infringe upon, and then specifically declares that anything not mentioned is a right reserved by the states and the people.
Of course, everyone just ignores the constitution these days. The federal government acts like it has unlimited power to do whatever it wants. And for the most part, the courts have agreed.
911 didn't exist here until the 90s, after AT&T was broken up. My family had a "party line"... we basically were forced to share a phone line with a few of our neighbors. All the way up until mid 1980s. Yay for socialized phone service.
No. No system ever has a design goal of forcing all the oxygen out of the air. They all leave enough oxygen in the air so that they are not an imediate hazard to personnel.
Inergen is mostly nitrogen with enough CO2 to make you breathe harder and want to leave. You can easily survive in a room that just had an Inergen dump with plenty of time to get out.
You could pass out, but you wouldn't die of oxygen starvation unless there's actually a fire... in which case the CO would kill you regardless of the halon if you stuck around.
Halon or equivalent only needs about 7% concentration in the air to work... that leaves 18% oxygen in the air vs 21% normally... even with no venting.
What the fuck is "hoarding of money"? Is that like "saving money"?
We can't live in this Keynesian dream of everyone spending every dime of their income as soon as they get it. Its what made our economy fragile in the first place.
That wouldn't accomplish anything. They might feel a little lightheaded after 20 or 30 minutes of breathing Halon or equivalent, that's all. It's a myth that it is dangerous or somehow prevents you from breathing.
A steady stream of new suckers to inject money into such an idea will be pretty hard to come by if word gets around that spam doesn't make much money anymore.
No one wants to comply with mostly irrelevant 100 year old laws, and regulation of pricing down to the stupidly detailed level (government dictating how much caller ID should cost, etc).
You should assume it. If the people actually making and selling penis pills no longer get as high a return, they will stop hiring spammers.
While spamming is artificially cheap due to externalities, it's not free. There's always opportunity costs. At some point it will indeed become not worth doing for the majority of spammers.
VHF is pretty useful in a disaster too. All it takes is one guy climbing/driving up to the top of a mountain who can do simplex relay for the entire massive area.

We have an OS X server.
It really does suck.
It's kind of like a crippled BSD server with weird management utilities and a lot of buggy modified utilities.
You might as well just use a normal Linux server, since all the same daemons are available, and much easier to manage.
Surely we should blame a free market that never existed in the first place. That seems to be the popular thing to do.
The method is to accept that some people are smarter than others. This liberal propaganda that everyone has equal potential is poison.

Just think of design patents as a special case of copyright.
Copyright doesn't apply to functional objects (with a large gray area). The legal term is "useful articles" if you want to google.
Trademarks apply to brand identifying marks. Infringement depends on the likelihood of brand confusion.
Design patents cover the non-functional ornamental visual appearance of otherwise functional objects.
You are assuming equal freedom on every axis.
An airplane can use climb or dive quickly, or bank, and that's pretty much it. And none of those operations can really be done on a dime.
I hope I never have to work with you.
All black powder cannons are legal. He didn't need to call the ATF at all.

They still seceded from Virginia. Not that we particularly want them back or anything.

People tend to forget that socialism is inherently an isolationist philosophy.
The main reason Germany felt the need to expand its borders after the national socialist party took over was to ensure natural resource independence.

Laws vary, but often it has to be "primarily" based on skill rather than chance. Courts wind up deciding in the end.
Poker is often considered a game of chance, not skill, legally, much to the chagrin of many players who don't agree with that.
Of course ISPs give a damn about spam, it's a profitable business selling high bandwidth links to known spammers for many times the market rate.
ISPs allow spam to exist because it makes them money.
You should assume it. If the people actually making and selling penis pills no longer get as high a return, they will stop hiring spammers.

Making a direct connection on port 25 is a presumption of guilt these days anyway.

It's not gambling if it's a game of skill. You can charge an entry fee for a game of skill and pay a prize in pretty much every state of the US.
