The commentary on your clip renders their use of it fair use. You have no actionable claim against them.
No, this is not fair use if they use the entire clip. It's like saying you can reproduce an entire novel by putting quotes on the first and last pages. They are allowed to show a SMALL PORTION of the clip under fair use, "for the purposes of review".
Please we need to hear from the 100 in the store , why didn't they leave ? Why did they comply ?
Because the general public have been indoctrinated into thinking that a) there are "terrorists" EVERYWHERE, especially in the parking lot outside the store, and b) of course you always do what the perpetrator wants, and then he'll let you go, right?
Oh, and the rest just wanted to see everyone else naked.
I never understood the SaaS model and why anyone would want it.
The corporations obviously want it. So you're going to get it. Ahhh marketing... all they have to do is show lots of flashy colors on the screen and cut a deal with most schools, and before you know it an entire generation will be sold on this stuff.
7...... How much more do we have to add to really start becoming scared?
That Bush declares a "national emergency" after a pre-election terrorist event, invoke Gleichschaltung style legislation and refuse to step down. Then it would be worse.
You'll need it for the check-points. What check-points you say? Ahhh, wait, this will be the brain-child of the NEXT administration. Welcome to Soviet Amerika, tovarich
think on all of the crimes that would be easier to solve if you had DNA ot match to already in a database.
The thing is that the "tinfoil hats" are sometimes right, in that governments do tend to abuse power. What happens when 15 years after your national mandatory DNA database is opened to insurance companies and corporations (after successful lobbying) and you can no longer get a job and or health insurance because you're too much of a health risk?
You think this won't happen? Look what is happening to the national "Do Not Call" list for telemarketers. They (the corporations) are fighting like hell to get permission to call people on it... and this is just the off chance of maybe getting a few sales. Imagine how much they will want hardcore information like your genetic predispositions? Nope sorry you can't be an airline pilot because it shows here you have an increased risk of early heart disease. We're not willing to invest hundreds of thousands into training you if in all likelyhood you can only work for us for 10 years... Oh look, you have an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, if you want health insurance you have to pay 10 times as much, and we'll only insure you until you're 40. Etc.
Sometimes some of the crap tinfoil hats say makes a lot of sense.
Yes. They can apply for one right (points to guarded "show passport to access" federal building) inside there.
What happened to the "If we lose our freedoms, then the terrorists have won"?
What terrorists? Mission accomplished, remember? Oh, RIIIGHT. The mission accomplished referred to taking the WMD's from the Iraquis. Oh wait, there were no WMD's. OK, well the mission accomplished referred to getting Saddam Hussein. Oh wait, Bush said "Mission Accomplished" on May 1st 2003, and Hussein wasn't captured until December 13th 2003. Wait, now I am confused too!
Surely "mission accomplished" didn't stand for "I did it, and I got away with it, and the American people are so stupid and/or apathetic that from now on the US government can do whatever it wants", does it?
The country where everyone sues everyone else. Also the country that has incredibly restrictive legislation on health care information (HIPAA). Am I getting warmer?
Risk, reward. If you're not willing to take the risk, don't complain that you're not getting reward. There's nothing wrong with speculation. If it was EASY then everyone would be rich. But those few that DO manage to make a living from it deserve it very much.
Who cares if the burger-flipper at the local fast food joint believes that a bus can jump a 50-foot span?
Agreed. I mean after all, you have to save room for 50% of the population on the OTHER side of the Gauss/normal/bell curve.
Then again, if you look at all the scientific progress made SINCE the 1960's, I'd say the world doesn't have to fear stagnation yet. Also bear in mind that most of this progress has been made by the same generation that was busy smoking pot/other things in the 1960's...
This is just the same old fallacy about "this generation is morally depraved, completely off the rails, etc" that has been around since Plato and Socrates. Old farts never understand the young idiots that are going to replace them. It's the way of the world.
Humans have evolved to find Newtonian mechanics intuitive! (especially in translational cases, somewhat less in rotational ones) If someone throws a ball, you can quickly figure out approximately where it is going to land. You have no need to do calculations, because its evolutionarily hardwired into your brain.
Actually I wouldn't say it is "hard wired". That's what the first few years of life are about. Throw a ball at a 6 month old and see what happens.
It's more that we grow up in a world where gravity is constant, and we learn to predict future ball positions through observation , trial and error.
"Look, an object heads towards me. I predict it will arrive here.. no.. here... little bit more... here. gotcha."

Yes, a very convincing counter. Congratulations. Win a lot with that one, do you?

and companies don't want the bad press of sueing a kid.
I guess they could just get the RIAA to do it for them.
Of course, the Turkish government is not an occupying power hell-bent on destroying the language and culture of the Turkish people.
No need, they already did that hundreds of years ago...
I think I just saw a pig fly by the window. But seriously, how can this get any better?
George Bush gets impeached?

Too bad the article fails to mention what these enzymes turn the sugar into. Ethanol?
Hey I know how to solve the battery (hic) recycling pro (hic) problem. Can I have your (hic) dead batteries?
Actually rule #1 is... never mind.
Anyway it's everyone ELSE's crap that clogs the tubes.

You'll be waiting in line at the airport, and the Real ID reader will say "Buffering..."
What about travel on federal highways?
You'll need it for the check-points. What check-points you say? Ahhh, wait, this will be the brain-child of the NEXT administration. Welcome to Soviet Amerika, tovarich
What precisely does the current federal government do for the middle classes?
Hey come on, they build freeways and bridges oh wait...

Polling continually shows that a very high percentage (70-95%) of the entire world believes in some higher power.
Is it a coincidence that according to standardized tests I am also smarter than 99.99% of the world's population?
Here is a vid the "majority" might enjoy.
Which coutry might that be then

Well done, that man.
And I expect if they fail to comply we should jolly well knock them for six wot eh? Smashing.
So as long as the receiving end of the freeway happens to be 1.16 m lower than the departing end, YOU'RE OK!
I was going to say something about the bridge collapsing but I guess that would be in bad taste.

Does a lack of a suspension of disbelief hurt one's chances of getting a date?
Nah, plenty of dates to be had in the supermarket.
They're in the exotic section, next to the figs and other stuff. Oh, that's not what you meant, is it? I have NO IDEA about the OTHER kind (shrug).
