I work in a university library, and all of our copiers have a sign above them that says that duplicating copyrighted works for illegal purposes is (duh!) illegal. Or something to that effect. It kind of parallels your README idea, I guess.
Technically there is no 7th season. They just had a really long break during season 6, and the series finale was episode 21 of season 6. But yeah, it was almost like a really short 7th season.
I bought one (Coby, I think) for my own mother last year, and it uses a CF card for storage. You just put all of your pictures on the card and stick it in the back of the frame and it automatically displays them slideshow-style. It has a little remote control you use to configure various settings like slideshow speed, or to just display a certain image or whatever. It has a 7" screen and cost about $70. I just wish it had batteries so there isn't an ugly power cord hanging down the wall or over the edge of the desk.
Actually, she's not at all liable, and neither is the bar.
7. (a) In any proceeding pursuant to subdivision one of section
sixty-five of this article, it shall be an affirmative defense that such
person had produced a driver's license or non-driver identification card
apparently issued by a governmental entity, successfully completed the
transaction scan, and that the alcoholic beverage had been sold,
delivered or given to such person in reasonable reliance upon such
identification and transaction scan. http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/nycodes/c5/a6.html [findlaw.com]
(Emphasis mine).
If she asked for an ID, and reasonable documentation was provided, she's fulfilled her obligation under the law, and the liability now rests with the minor.
If an ID actually passed the scan, i.e. the state database or whatever says that it's a valid ID after running it through the little machine, then I don't think she would have denied the patron, confiscated the license, and posted it on her site. So by definition she'd be liable for allowing any of these people to drink illegally.
It's pretty obvious; I don't think that even the ZFS developers will deny it. They'll just say "it's a layering that was worth breaking".
Of course they'll say that. If they hadn't shipped ZFS, what must-have feature would the marketdroids use to promote Solaris 10? SMF? Not likely. SMF is a solution looking for a problem.
It might have been confusing, were this a Dickies message board. But the sales guy's misunderstanding of the term 'free' as it would be used at an FSF event is clearly his own fault.
Don't they make money from the vendor on each transaction? Isn't that why the family-owned gas station attendants always want me to use debit rather than credit?
Legal code is complex and much like computer code, you can't take sub-sections out of context and claim to understand the greater implications.
The section he quoted is one of many that refer to self-defense. There are whole other sections with different rules regarding the defense of someone else, with distinctions based upon your personal relationship with that other person. Defending myself is not the same as defending my sister is not the same as defending the 7-11 clerk. And the rules can change based upon time of day, location, and other environmental conditions. There are very specific definitions of force, deadly force, protection, person, third person, safety, property, assault, aggravated assault, etc.. Still, there's room for lawyer-types to twist a story in any direction they want. And that's a good thing, because it allows every incident be evaluated individually and under it's own circumstances in a court of law.
This complexity is the reason why you have to take an 8-hour course, pass a written exam, and pass a shooting test before getting your license. All I had to do for a drivers' license was stand in line, and a motor vehicle can arguably be more destructive than a handgun.
People sometimes ask me why I (legally) carry a concealed handgun, and I tell them it's like wearing a seatbelt or a motorcycle helmet. I hope that I never ever need it, but if that one time comes up where it may save my life I sure as hell want to be wearing it.
Now you understand the double standard that exists in general when reporting political relationships depending on which political party you're referring to at the time.
It's the same for sports teams, college fraternities, religions, online forums, caveman clans, etc. You're describing a universal characteristic of human nature - "the group I'm loosely affiliated with is better yours".

When I was in college I sure as hell wouldn't have wasted macaroni on some dumb Father's Day gift. That's my dinner!
I don't if I've missed a setting or something, but my standard-def MythTV box uses 1.1GB per half hour of recording.
I was talking about the 'sign on your drive' bit.
Don't stop believing. Don't stop
An analogy rant finished with an analogy. Nice.

It's designed to prevent, say, one process on your machine from overwriting a file it should be able to.
Yeah, that pretty much sums up my experience too.
Probably quite a few more than that! How many iterations of each ship were there? 1701-A through D, etc..

Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.
Or, you could just drop some acid, eat a 'shroom, and do a whippit to get the same idea.

Huh? I'm talking about ${a} versus "$a".
I thought it was functionally equivalent to quotes wrt spaces in the variable's value. I'm no expert.
Better or worse than ${@}?

Is that for real, or is it like the sports bar who has a $80 peanut butter and jelly sandwich on the menu?
Would that be Beakdot?
I always knew Tupac was still alive, but I never would have guessed that he hung out on Slashdot.
That dialog was eerily disturbing. Like some sort of geeked-up Scientology interview.
That's a great point that I forgot to mention.
