Exactly. If the EFF decides to pursue this to the end, it will more than likely give others pause when trying to stop people from USING their PURCHASED electronic devices.
They aren't talking about "hacking IP". They are talking about using hardware, think linux on Intel hardware. If Intel required signed bootloaders, do you think the law would protect them too?
Think "Grow Houses"
Up here in Canada. If a landlord knowing keeps renting to a grower the house can and will be forcibly cleaned up at considerable expense to the owner and the owner may also be held criminally responsible.
Different laws/country though.
I loved that MOD too. I loved all the grappling hook mods. I SO miss that aspect of swinging into a base with support and slinging out with their flag with a rear guard.
I must be getting old.
re freezer:
You are forgetting something here. The inside of the fridge/freezer combo is a closed circuit (air-wise and refrigerant-wise).
When you take a new freezer and it starts to cool, it's many passes of the air inside through the evaporator before it comes anywhere near freezing.
That and the fact that there is still "heat" to be absorbed well below the freezing point (heat pumps anyone?).

Why a cell phone? Why not just a usb dongle + software?
and... 1867 means something in Canada.
I think this is the joke.
XML for the win

synergy(the software, NOT the buzzword) is awesome. I hope it never gets renamed to something I won't be able to find down the road.
Oh.
You said Iraq.
Carry on.
As $YOUR_DIETY is my witness, I swear to name any illegitimate children I spawn (yeah, yeah, except it really COULD happen in my case) Havoc.

Funny you should ask this during this thread :-)
It applies to the source of much of Led Zepp's music (old bluesmen that never saw a dollar, or credit for their work)
Got shouted down in a most disgusting way when it was brought up.
You have to realise that nobody shoots for the middle (workable) ground.
You have to aim for NO copyright to get "reasonable" copyright.
Tell me I am wrong please.
Asphalt has it's issues in cold climates.
Up here in Toronto, highways are concrete (yes concrete) with an asphalt layer on top.
Every summer the asphalt has to be repaired, leading to our two seasons.
Winter, and Road Repair.
Things may be similar in the midwest but I am only speculating.
*too afraid to comment*
I may not completely understand graphic cards but,
I think in this case clock cycles actually *DO* mean something.
Really?

Confusing and foreign enough for the masses.
Ah the trillion dollar question at last.
Coders don't design faulty business logic. Coders code what they are told to code.
Subject says it all.

No love for Quake 2 mods at all eh? Loki's Minions was awesome to play. Spent at least 2000 hours playing that crack-mod.
Actually it's state sanctioned theft. Thanks for playing.

And here we thought the Alaska Pipeline was expensive.... Imagine the stretch on THAT hose?
All up into a dude's business just to sell ads. Disgusting.
Of course not! Sex with a teenager is illegal. Or did you mean the cat?
but he knows karate (boogie nights) besides, didn't you hear the tracks? It's that good.
