I think it's pretty clear that this isn't going to go well for Brown. They'll get nothing but bad publicity from this, so why on earth was this lawyer allowed to write a C&D letter? He should have at least checked first with Brown's marketing department - or any department - if it's okay to threaten a small business that's popular with students for no gain to the the university.
But the lenses in your eyes will still be focusing an image from the TV screen. The image is generated by the flat plane of the screen, therefore you need to focus on a flat plane even when the 3D effect makes you think there's a variety of distances in front of you. It's no different to a cinema screen.
This sensor would be fantastic for microscopy. The current range of "scientific" cameras are woefully under-specced even compared to consumer DSLRs (tiny sensors, small pixels, high noise level even with peltier cooling). Canon can eliminate Leica from that market with a product like this.
Of course, but that superpower would also need the desire to enforce ownership. There's just no incentive when they can just encourage Chinese or US mining companies to do the dirty work.
Exactly, but it's still only worth $195b if someone is willing to pay that. The annual budget of NASA is $16b and I doubt they're going to spend every cent they get on space minerals.
The outer space treaty says that nations can't "claim ownership" of space bodies and they can't use them for weapons testing. But AFAIK that doesn't prohibit commercial exploitation of an asteroid. Whoever can catch it and start mining it has a pretty good claim to it. Who's going to stop them? And for what purpose?
A legal battle would arise if another company tried mining the same asteroid. They'd need to set up a way of staking a claim. But we're not nearly at that stage yet.

I think it's easier to learn a programming language than a human language, so in practically every country you'll find people who are already fluent in their own language plus whatever programming language you know. And most of them will have learnt English since childhood.
Learn a language for fun, or if you want to see the world, but it won't tie in with your programming in any meaningful way.
So you're benefiting from other people sharing information on Facebook without actually sharing anything yourself? How about you just don't use it at all?

You say that Facebook users don't understand the meaning of the word "privacy", but that's plain incorrect. Most are fine with the knowledge that Facebook is using their data to fund the service, but are not fine with messages meant for one friend being seen by another friend. That's a type of "privacy" which is much more important to most people.

Yes, but then you would need special lenses. This sensor works with 35mm (full-frame) lenses.
I can see you're a master debater.
The patent on the use of glyphosate-resistant GM crops.

Yes it's ratified, and how is the number of spaceships relevant to the question of mining rights?

Android doesn't use 3G if it's connected to a wifi network, regardless of whether the wifi connection works. That's the problem.
The AC's opinion is that Yatse sucks despite it doing exactly what it's advertised to do, ie, controls XBMC over a lan using the HTTP api.
Yatse displays the XBMC media library on your tablet and lets you control playlists, etc. Try doing that with bluetooth.
Seconded. Yatse works great on both my phone and tablet and I prefer using it over my bluetooth mini keyboard.
We did have something new and great, but then Fox cancelled it.
This paint is terrible! It's a totally failed investment. I better get some new paint and cover up these splotches quickly so no one finds out.
Sure, and the horse sets a pretty high standard for transport.

Do your employees enjoy not being able to receive personal phone calls at work?
Why would they do that when the burgers are prepared frozen and cooked on the spot?
It doesn't matter if the media has decided she's guilty. She may actually be guilty. What makes you so certain that she's not?

What are you talking about? "Chipzilla" is a nickname for Intel.

That's not true. Likes and comments on a post don't change the privacy settings of that post. It's really not that complicated.
