I suspect that Spammer Rule #1 applies. (Note the weasel-word "intended".) Besides, it doesn't scale. If it was okay for one company to send you one message a day, then it's okay for 10,000+ companies to send you one message a day. And if they only steal a penny in time and resources from one person each day, then it's okay to steal pennies from millions of people each day? Their whining is just a fancy version of the "Just Hit Delete" spammer mating-call.
Nice to see that they're on-track for Spammer Rule #4.
That's why you should always play nethack. Anyone can understand a game of Solitare, but watch someone try to explain why the soup of nethack is a bad thing on your screen.
but his descendants get to control it for almost a century after his death.
Do these people have anything to do with his descendants (Aldo Guthrie, others?), or did they just manage to gain control of the rights during money problems in Woody Guthrie's lifetime?
Heck, the original was pretty darned political. In fact, it was on a blacklist for a long time because Woody Guthrie was *gasp* a leftie! The Canadianized version grew quite popular before the original was allowed much airplay. I think one verse of the original says it best about this nonsense:
As I went walking, I saw a sign there,
And on the sign it said "No Trespassing."
But on the other side it didn't say nothing,
That side was made for you and me.
Perhaps something like David Brin's Kiln People? (Interesting book, but it never quite turned golem magic into science and technology for me.) Cheap clay duplicates that last a day or so, with memory transfer back possible at the end of the day. Send dittos to work each day. If it's a boring job, don't even bother to download the memories afterwards. (Since the copy is you, you'll be "killing" it, oh well.)
Destroying someone's ditto might get you a fine, but then, if it was trespassing and wasting the time of an original, it's owner would be fined. (Dittos have ID pellets baked into their foreheads. Naturally spammers would continue to forge.. headers.)
If you disassemble a living being, I don't think it really matters if you ship all the molecules to the new location or use stuff that's already there. For a while, the being is dead either way depending on your theology.
I'd be worried that the other end would be running a nanno-nanny filter and I'd come out the other end without any naughty bits.
Also, even if you do break down the original, there's no limit on the number of copies. I'd rather not get people spam.
Bad assumption: No button on my speakers. (Do you design games?) Besides, I'm using the keyboard and mouse and about to reach for the phone. Don't complicate my life.
Any local user or remote user able to access port 3050/tcp [gds_db] can manipulate any database object on the system. This includes the ability to install trapdoors or other trojan horse software in the form of stored procedures. In addition, if the database software is running with root privileges, then any file on the server's file system can be overwritten, possibly leading to execution of arbitrary commands as root.
I wonder where the person who coded that one is working now?
Embedded is one of those Humpty-Dumpty type words. It used to be only for firmware stuff, but now it's used to cover any kind of batch job or server app.
At most another five minutes. They're in the Collection line behind IBM. (Unless this case is just a way of jumping from the prefered stockholder line to the court awarded damages one.)
Bankers on a Friday morning? I still think it was golf.

If we were really organized, we'd get a very high-power surplus laser with equitorial-tracking mirror mount and get the domain moon-the-mpaa.org
It did for me. (We watched it at the drive-in back in the sixties.)
My guess is that a drive-in would be about perfect. Just pick a night or time when they're not trying to show a movie.
Darn it, what's to stop someone from tailgating you and illegally video-taping it?

I tried switching to IPv9, but I got some chinese banner ads. ;)
Mice: The other weird meat!
It may have never happened, it might not work on everyone, but I have a hunch that the Xerox lie-detector would work on Sal. (Or Sal.)
And I thought Windows NT 4 (Cairo) was a good release (after they got to SP4).

I want a pause that will kill all sound including the background music/sound. A "STFU I'm on the phone!" button.
Why not put IR lasers on a Moon base and control all the sports bars? (It's what I like to call a "Death Star.")
He's been pounding these out for months now. Rebutted by Open Source Industry Australia in April.

I think a rat (its only friend) crawled into its left leg and died.
What a choice: dive for FP or get the trailer before shashdotting. Neither! 15% and now estimated time of 44 minutes.
With the link and the title stuff that Slashdot adds, there isn't much room for "In non-Soviet Russia drunk attendants beat passenger!"

The five minutes to draft their response, I can understand. What was the two hours for? Laughter, rage, a few more holes of golf?
