Well, courts would look at the intent. The intent of a clip with regards to fair use is to exist as a clip. If you go around gathering all the parts, your intent is to duplicate the full copyrighted work, and therefor is no longer fair use, even if all the parts taken individually are.
Let me make it clear that, it doesn't matter. Software patents should be abolished. Allowing them to stand as foobar algorithm "on a computer" should NEVER be allowed.
But that is the bullshit that I'm talking about. Everything uses a client system and a server. Tying the patentability to that is a load of horseshit ten miles deep.
Well, I'm not pointing my finger at that type of patent. If it uses hardware, that's different. My problem is with patents on pure software. For example the patent on 1-click at Amazon. That should not be patentable.
The idea that software patents should not exist is based on the idea that all software is simply sets of algorithms. Therefore all software can be boiled down to mathematics: algorithms and formulas. According to commonly held ideas about patent law: "You cannot patent a formula."
Let's all focus on software patents rather than all patents in general. The argument is much more cut and dry. If we focus all our energy on getting rid of software patents, I think it would be more beneficial than trying to reform all patent law. Once we've gotten rid of software patents, then we can move to reforming the patent law in regards to areas that are much more gray.
Just to put this in very specific easy-to-understand terms; the man who raped your neighbor's housekeeper is going to rape your daughter next week because the housekeeper is undocumented and fears deportation for simply calling the police and reporting the crime.
You are exactly correct. And the concept that you are talking about can be expanded to policing and immigration status in the US.
The shooter that you refer to under fear of the enormous financial repercussions of accidentally starting a fire will fail to report the fire and run away. This makes the firefighters' jobs more difficult because the fire does not get reported as quickly. The most important thing in an emergency situation like this is the speed of response on the part of the firefighter. Who caused it and what happened is secondary or even tertiary.
The same thing holds for policing in a community. If an undocumented immigrant observes or is a victim of a crime, they are less likely to report that crime to the police in parts of the US where the police will check your immigration status just for calling them. Those locations are less safe than locations where the police leave the checking of immigration status to after charging an individual with a crime. In communities where the police pretend to be an immigrations service, the conservatives and the tea baggers might feel like they're being protected from the boogeyman of the criminal immigrant, where in reality they are much less safe because the law abiding immigrants fear even calling the police to report a real crime.
Take a year off. Make a travel plan to see the world. Stay in hostels that have wifi, and split your time coding for open source projects and exploring the world.
No idea, but if you deal with reporting abuse all day long, you would respect Microsoft and Yahoo. They shut down abuse within moments. Google ignores abuse reports.
Please mod this UP! Google is unable to deal with abuse on their own systems. They ignore reports of phishing drop emails hosted at Gmail. In fact they ignore most all reports of abuse submitted to them, period.
Abuse reports to Google fall on deaf ears. Google couldn't care less about crime on their own systems, unless it's copyright violations on Youtube when a bird song infringes a record label's intellectual property. Google is one of the worst companies on the internet with regards to responding to abuse on it's systems. Even nasty dens of garbage like OVH and iWeb respond faster.
This is precisely what I'm talking about. One part of Google may care about phishing and malware (the Stop Browsing team). But Gmail doesn't care about drop emails. Google Docs doesn't care about phishing pages they host. Google Apps couldn't care less about malware payloads that you can download from their sites.
Google stopped dealing with abuse on their own systems over a year ago. They don't correct any abuse complaints at all anymore. For example, if you take down a phishing site, there is always going to be a drop email somewhere in the php code of the phishing page. The stolen credentials get sent to this email address. If you report this illegal email address to google, they ignore it. These drop email addresses stay up and allow phishers to profit from their phishing campaigns for very very long periods of time. There are a numberof times that this problem has been raised with google. They are always answered with, go to this page and report it there. Gmail abuse admins do absolutely nothing about things reported through this form. The only thing that happened is that they adjusted the form so that it just flat out rejects anything that does not have a header. So it is now IMPOSSIBLE to report drop emails to google. Additionally, google has a side channel abuse email "trusted.abuse.reports@google.com". Even if you report this type of abuse to that address, you get a autoresponse saying thanks for the report, but they do nothing to suspend or stop the abuse that it reported. I'm under the impression that Google has given up monitoring any of the channels that they have to receive abuse reports.
This is quite interesting because if you make a project open source there is much much less that the government can do to stop your project. The thing that makes this even more interesting is this is being started by exactly the same person who PUBLISHED the source code for PGP IN A BOOK just to protect it from the government!
Build a FNPP. I understand that the acronym is inferior, but I assure you that the actual end product is far far superior:
FreeBSD Nginx Postgresql PHP
You are then going to want to get the box configured properly with the following: geli encrypted root partition ZFS Filesystem geli encrypted swap Nginx in its own jail Postgresql in a separate jail and only listening on localhost the only network access to the main system (outside the jail) is through openssh have ssh use three factor authentication: 1. Password. 2. Google Authenticator. 3. Crypto Stick. Enable ipfilter, and read the FreeBSD handbook for how to set it up properly make sure that Openssh restricts itself to AES/SHA raise the kernel securelevel to 3 make sure that openssh has a 4096 bit key and is restricted to the only the authentication methods that you are using set portsnap and freebsd-update to run nightly in cron install ports-mgmt/portaudit install OSSEC from ports/security/ossec*
Follow these instructions and you will have a battle-ready hardened server.
Being a DJ and a gear head, I've spent lots of time and thought on what to buy and I've made quite a few trials. In my experience you need to look at exactly what you are going to be doing with the headphones (or speakers for that matter). If you are going to be doing recording, you want to get a very good set, and by very good, I mean very unforgiving. They need to reproduce the sound as accurately as possible. The problem with these is that they are too good to listen to most MP3 recordings. They are so good that they expose lower quality recordings to the point that they sound bad. Those same MP3s will sound much better on cheaper, more forgiving speakers and headphones. Since you mentioned $50 as your budget, you won't have a problem.
Every time I have to whitelist a cookie to get a website to work what other third party cookies are always sitting there in the block list. I'll give you two guesses.
Well... except for porn sites. They have about 10 - 15 blocked third party cookies, but none of them are Google/Facebook........
Malcolm Gladwell is in the pocket of any corporate entity that feels like paying his fees. His game has already been exposed. Don't believe a word he says.
Try driving in the US if you're black or hispanic. You will be treated quite differently than if you're white. If you disagree with this statement, then you're white. Also, don't talk about the day to day conditions of somewhere you've never been.

If you want them to really get into it, buy them a Roku and a gift membership to Netflix.
