I don't know if you'd call it theft, but if you think of your installed image as licensed then you did steal a license from them. If you consider it pirated, then you merely violated copyright. I would say the S/N was stolen.
Oh, I think that's a little excessive. Confiscation of your computer and a public whipping would satisfy me. For stealing windows or for using it in the first place?
Parent is not flamebait. That's funny. Somebody grow a sense of humor and at least give him his karma back.

I too have trouble sometimes with those debit machines. Every supermarket's debit has different prompts, and I try to go fast for the sake of the people in line behind me. I also had no trouble with the last touch screen voting machine I used. In fact I found it substantially easier than lining up the bubbles on the optical scan machine in the county I live in now. I'm standing by my view that touch screen systems are simpler to use.
You can order groceries online? How?

Probably because people clam up and act like morons when presented with a new electronic device for the first time. Clearly I have more experience with computers than average (this is Slashdot), but I don't see how a computerized system is any more complicated than filling in those annoying bubbles or operating some Baroque lever pulling machine. It's about on par with using an ATM -- something almost everyone in America can do. If anything, it might be the poll workers who had trouble with the new voting machines. They had the hard job.
This is perfectly legal and IMO even ethical behavior on both sides. Exxon can't be expected to advertise next to editorials that trash them, although they may choose to do so anyways. As always, you'll just have to trust the source when reading editorials or draw your own conclusions.
Non profit does not necessarily mean they have the funds to prove this drug effective on cancer. Seems like the Canadian researchers are ready to handle this themselves anyways. This whole story is political FUD.
Objectively, seeing hair colors out of the norm upset a person's sense of normalcy. A good natural colored dye job is either invisible or just subtle. People do in fact look down on the bad die jobs. To break with nature so vividly is bound to attract attention, which is unfortunate for those who aren't seeking it.
Also, it's worth noting that the built-in media player on the 360 works pretty good This is one of the things that gets lost in the console wars. Try watching movies on your Wii.
The government is the peoples' worst enemy, and they're the ones with the guns. That's true everywhere. The government owns the guns and the gunmen. That's what makes them the government. The guns make the government able to impose its will on the people, which makes it the people's worst enemy.
That's the story of almost *everyone*'s investments made around that time. You can't complain about brokerage fees if you go online. It's what? 7 bucks a trade or something. Investment in risky ventures is just gambling. The broker is like a blackjack dealer. He's on your side, but he's not giving you your tips back when you lose.
Not all contractual agreements hold up in court True. The ones that do not hold up shape future agreements. For instance California insists that all work done by an employed person on his own time with his own equipment is his, including intellectual property. This has led to employment contracts that make explicit what is done for the company. If not for the law and the court cases behind it, some companies would claim everything a person created while employed.
I think it's awesome that people halfway across the world who play no (American) football not only know about that incident but have learned our big-word latinate euphemism for it as well. Awesome.
Yes, it's amazing that we villify people for both have sex contrary to nature's intentions (sodomy) and having sex with individuals who have just reached sexual maturity as nature intended (statutory rape.)
So basically you can't tie a 14 year old girl up for one night, but you sure as hell can marry her and tie her up for life.
Parent said his computer was confiscated. I think if they had busted him, he would have said "my friend was unjustly imprisoned/put on probation for looking at kiddy porn.
Are you kidding? What is so implausible about his story? What am I doing responding to an AC troll?
Does this apply to other laws as well? Can a German be prosecuted at home for visiting an Amsterdam coffee shop (and smoking the wacky tabacky in case you didn't get the euphemism)?
You can download HD movies on XBL now. Granted the selection is very limited, but it should improve. You could say the same thing about Blu Ray dics, however. XBL movies are only for rentals, though, so they're not good for collectors.
Sounds possible. It would be awesomerer if you could use the PS3 controller, but, with a keyboard, it should work fine, assuming you can find an emulator that compiles for Linux/PowerPC. I bet Sony would love it if that became popular.
To be clear, YDL is compiled for the Cell, but it does not take advantage of the SPEs. Because they lack direct access to main memory, it would be difficult to integrate them into an OS. Also, you want to save that power for apps right? You are free to write your own software that takes full advantage of the Cell, and TFA has instructions for doing so, or you could wait for someone else to do so. Only certain types of apps will benefit in any case from the parallel processing power, and clearly games are out of the question because of the graphics limitations.
This happens occasionally. My plumber friend assures me it's not standard practice to crimp off pipes, but some folks will do however poor a job they can get away with. Since the problem usually shows up years later, as in your case, I doubt they're ever taken to task.

Invisible because you can't see them. Pink is the color they would be if you could. I got it.
Many of the women in pr0n are nastys. It's easier to forget that in SD.
Football is the best thing to watch in HD. And there's a lot of HD content. Football is often shown zoomed out, and with HD you can see the details.
