However, with the current unconstitutional laws in effect, you are rewarded for an absurdly long period, until long after you and probably your children are dead.
Part of the problem here is that copyrights are transferable and can be owned by corporations. The original copyright holder quickly loses his rights, if he even held them in the first place, and people with no affiliation whatsoever to the works or the artist gets to reap the benefits.
Make copyrights non-transferable from the actual creator(s), and only licensable for no longer than 5 years at a time. If a corporation wants to continue using a creation, they need to continue to compensate the creator, until the work falls into public domain.
Maybe, you ought to outlaw mustache, aquarelle painting, and vegetarianism â" because Hitler was into all three â" just to cover all the bases?
You overlooked the second part of my sentence, "and it worked". Mustaches, paintings and vegetarianism didn't bring about the holocaust. Hate speech festering in the hearts of the listeners did.
Why would you need to do exact same stuff... with a new tool?
You don't. But it's useful to learn new scripting languages because some devop or other will surely use it, very badly, in an installer or maintenance script, which you will have to fix to get it working.
So that resolution isn't all bad. #16, on the other hand, truly is. "It's hard to break old habits, but get used to the newer commands. Maybe it's time to use ip instead of ifconfig and ss instead of netstat. Look into the newer commands and try to roll them into your daily work." No, no and no. Compatibility is key. You will still maintain 20 year old systems that cannot be upgraded, and needs more than your department's resources to replace. So you will be stuck using the old commands anyhow. Then what is better, to be able to use the same script snippets everywhere, and know what they do, or to use different commands, some of which change APIs more often than you change your underwear? Learn the new commands, but don't use them. Much as you avoid bashisms when there's not a particular reason to use them, you also avoid new commands when there's not a particular reason to use them.
If you only have a homogenous set of servers, sure, do whatever you like, but then you're not much of a sysadmin either.
Why is too complicated to fit a Linux's LiveDVD to 4.7GB DVD instead of 2 GB?
Why is there not a Linux's LiveBD in a 50GB BD?
You live in the past. Newer systems don't come with shiny media readers, much like they haven't had tape stations for a while either. Booting off a USB stick (or good old bootp for those who know how) is what's done these days. Then media size isn't much of a concern.
Sure it's censorship. That's the whole point of it. The big difference between many European countries and the US is that they are more open about doing censorship when deemed beneficial for society as a whole. WWII happened on their own soil, and they want to take steps to prevent it from happening again.
But most Americans appear to be for censorship as long as it doesn't affect them, and isn't called censorship. Suppressing science, suppressing medical information, suppressing sexuality, suppressing freethinkers, suppressing seditious speak,... that is apparently fine. But suppressing hate speech is not?
A fair amount of them are parents because they believed in abstinence, the rhythm method, or a supernatural being who allegedly hates prophylactics. By all means, parents helping their children is a great thing, and one that should be the norm. But it's not something that should be counted on, nor the quality of it believed to make a positive difference.
Generally you would only follow up on abnormal lab tests
But pay for the normal ones, with money and with blood and results that according to their small print can then be used in money-generating research without compensating the paying donor. The normal tests, by virtue of being normal, are at best unnecessary, and help drive up insurance premiums.
By all mean, test for what is suspicious if the customer wants it. Even sell home testing kits that can help tell the nervous ones when to go get a lab test. Heck, even offer free tests if you think the dragnet will bring in enough paying customers. But don't impose unnecessary tests on customers that haven't expressed a wish for them, at inflated costs that the unwilling customers and other insurance holders pay for.
And no, if I take my car in to replace the air bag, I don't want to be presented with a bill for a 50 point inspection. Especially not a bill written with a fork.
I think you failed to spot PopeRatzo's rather thick irony.
When adding a random link is seen as a feat, it means it's pretty close to rock bottom. Fixing the broken HTML here, or a simple UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1 conversion would have been easy, but apparently beyond the capacity of the new owners.
Police in other countries don't seem to get shot quite as much, either,
At least part of that is that when the cops don't carry a gun, criminals have less incentive to shoot. They won't feel they have to in order not to get shot themselves.
We do need safer ways to respond to this for all parties. But you're not offering solutions, you're just making demands.
I thought I did look for solutions by proposing that we look at other countries where this problem isn't of the same magnitude.
One big difference is that cops many places don't go armed, and need approval to remove firearms from sealed boxes in their cars. The flip side is that criminals shoot less at the police too, because they don't feel they have to to save their lives from an armed and trigger-happy cop.
The problem of lethal weapons being used as a first resort seems solvable. The willingness to solve it doesn't seem to be there.
"Nationwide, law enforcement made an estimated 12,196,959 arrests in 2012", There are approx 1000 killed by police each year. That means.00081% of arrests result in a killing
You're an order of magnitude off..0082%
But it's also a dead wrong number. The numbers only counts fatal shootings, and only during arrest of those people. The numbers do not include "innocent bystanders, hostages, or those not in the custody of the state".
Also, the number having gone up more than tenfold in less than a decade is very troubling.
The people that end up cops would do just fine in a criminal organization. In In the police they're paid less, but can kill citizens with impunity. What's not to like from their point of view ?
The killing today in Colorado of a sheriff's deputy responding to a domestic violence call highlights the challenge faced by law enforcement officers.
A thousand cops being killed does not justify a single innocent person being killed by cops.
If they cannot do their jobs without being killed or killing innocents, it's time to replace the police. Close it down and create a new police force based on police in countries where crime is at a similar level but the death toll in police confrontations is much lower.
Do you have a reliable source, not ones tainted by socialist America haters who regularly push fake news?
Businessinsider can hardly be called "socialist America haters".
But perhaps you are begging the question by classifying anything that reports what goes against what Trump says as "socialist America haters" and "fake news"?
Doctors in the US over-treat illnesses, use outdated and ineffective treatments and generally run up the costs of medicine.
Running up the costs is an inherent problem with for-profit medicine. The last time I went to a doctor, it was for a broken arm. They wanted to do full blood panel and urine tests and follow-up appointments for those. I asked them what for, and they said that they always had to do that if there weren't recent results on file. I asked whether it would change the treatment of the broken arm from a sling to something else, and the doctor said no, but it could discover unrelated issues. Well, I was not there for unrelated issues or to look for could. I ended up switching doctors, because of the money grab.
So you are assuming everyone on the road is using an autonomous vehicle.
No, I am refuting a claim of it being impossible. It is certainly possible to put several autonomous vehicles after each other on the road, and it's possible to make them react at the same time. Thus refuting the claim that it's impossible.

His tax plan went through.
No, it didn't. A capitalist tax plan went through, but not his.
He didn't run for and didn't get elected to Dictator of Legislature, which seemed to come as a shock to him.

Lesson 2: There's no Lesson 2.

Yes, because Hitler was such a big fan of Free Speech, that the dangerous concept must be suppressed.
He was a big fan of hate speech. And it worked.
No more.

Basically the caller fed the 911 operator exactly the information needed to cause the police to abandon caution
No reason should be enough to abandon caution.
If it hadn't been in an urban area, I'd say it would be a nice time for target practice.

Thatâ(TM)s nonsense. As soon as you can do your job perfectly, weâ(TM)ll be willing to take this kind of advice from you.
No one is asking for perfect.
Just that is not the worst in the entire world.
He needs to be in prison. The police directly involved probably need to be in prison.
The caller and the cop being sentenced to serve in the same cell seems appropriate.
