The supreme court surely does 'make up' constitutional law. They claim only to read what's already there, true, but that's not at all what they actually do. As perhaps the most obvious example, I defy you to find anything in there which even remotely resembles a right to abortion, yet the SC found it constitutional. Now personally, I strongly favor that decision, but to try to claim it's really in the constitution is ludicrous to the point where you could equally claim that anything is in the constitution.
Ah, the Supreme Court says so. Which I agree with. But the constitution doesn't say so, and that was the OP's claim. Once you admit supreme court decisions, then libel comes right in as well, as there have been plenty of supreme court decisions to cover that.
Thankfully, the cost of producing video games is likely to come back down. It has been rising persistently as 3d has been evolving, but it looks to be reaching a zenith. The tools for 3d design are getting better (read as artist produces what he wants faster), but not more expensive. The import/export formats are getting standardized, so you don't have to invest programmer time there. The APIs for 3D are stabilizing. Gameplay data formats are settling into excel/xml. There are lots of reasons to believe that next-next-generation games might be made for half of what the next generation games will cost.
It will be very difficult, because much like adblock for firefox, you won't easily be able to move the code to another platform (try running adblock on IE).
Anything that blocks ads in one game will be completely useless for the next game. And worse, unlike firefox, you won't have the platform's cooperation.
Section. 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Section. 2. Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State.
Section. 3. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.
Section. 4. The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.
Section. 5. The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.
No where does it say that the states shall not abridge the freedom of speech. When it limits the states it specifically restricts itself to privileges and immunities, and quite obviously deliberately ignores freedoms. Why else do you think they use different words?
He clearly states that he has already introduced them to sci fi books. Either they like them and he's giving them more (he's doing the rightish thing), or they don't like them and haven't told him (can't really blame him), or they don't like them, told him, and he's still pushing them on them (he's a jerk).
No matter which case you have, really, it seems clear to me that delivering recommendations that the girls are more likely to enjoy is in their best interest.;-)
Your comment doesn't really qualify as libel, as libel must be untrue, and your comment is factual. Of course, I guess maybe the point you were making was that the 'libelous' wiki entry was true also, which it was. Read it carefully, every bit of the entry he claims was libelous was factual.
For a brief time, he was thought to have been directly involved in the Kennedy assassinations of both John, and his brother, Bobby. Nothing was ever proven.
I'm fairly certain that there is in fact no false information in that statement. For a brief time, he was in fact thought to have been directly involved in the Kennedy assasinations. Unless something about it was proven, which I don't believe it ever was, this is all fully factual.
Or maybe the factual error was in the preceding line?
John Seigenthaler Sr. was the assistant to Attorney General Robert Kennedy in the early 1960's.
Note that the first amendment specifies congress specifically, and that all powers not granted the federal government are reserved to the states.
Therefore any state law restricting libel is constitutional, and he can pursue any case he'd like in his state or the state of the poster or host (if the poster or host is in the US: every state has libel laws).
That's clearly on the way. I know people in the industry developing channel plans where they'll hook you on a show by letting you see a few episodes, then sell the remainder of the series via dvd mail order, or PPV.
It's not really a market failure because most cable tv systems are government granted monopolies. A much more valid evaluation could be made once the telcos are able to deliver significant numbers of channels via vhdsl.
The limits to digital lossless compression are indeed well understood. Consider that it might be possible to effectively compress intelligence in a lossy manner, or that we might very very poorly understand the limits of how intelligence can be designed.
Not that I really think you can fit an intelligence in so small a space, just that I don't think we have the tools to prove it impossible to a race with an extra ten thousand years of research behind them.
I'm not sure what the voltage is, the experiment I did just lit a 10 watt bulb for a short time (1min) with considerably less than a single coconut worth of volume.
I play games on my laptop all the time. I have a geforce go 6800, and most games are more than fast enough. Assuming i'm not going to try fps head to head, it's fine. I love the fact that I can play civ iv at barnes and noble while my wife studies.

Because as far as I know, anything being protected by copy protection might be spyware. So if they pass this, anyone can argue away cracking anything!

All in all, a very challenging problem.
I'll just write a program to email myself every file on my hard drive and see what fails, or maybe use that gmail as file system thingy.
On the contrary, it clearly is not:

Use GC unless you know precisely why you're not doing so. And even then, double check to make sure you're right.

About the adjustable end stroke please!
That develops the bicep, which is in the upper arm, not the forearm.

Sharing your personal recordings of shows off tv isn't a crime. You can even legally lend or give as a gift your dvd movies to your friends.
