You have to realize that it is the "recording artists" who have blind justice in their favor.
Looking at this objectively, we see that there is a "little girl" who loves an artist's music. If she wants to own a copy of the artist's music, she should pay him a fee for it. You see, the artist is a trader: he/she provides a product to trade in exchange for another's product of equal value.
Your comment that "art is for everyone and is priceless" is one of the most bullshit comments I have ever read. You fail to consider that it is only the artist that makes art possible. Accordingly, everyone does not have a claim to the artist's creation, only those who have paid the artist for his art. Further, by saying that art is "priceless" you are saying that the artist cannot (the art is worth an infinite amount) or should not (the art is worth nothing) be paid for his work, which is absurd.
It was the girl who was in the wrong, not the "recording artist" or the RIAA. She stole their property, it was fully within their rights to prosecute her.
You're hilarious. This is an instance where I wish we could meet in real life, and then we could see what a pathetic loser you are compared to me. Alas, this will never happen and that's why you are able to post this crap, but it's reassuring to know who's in the right and who's in the wrong.
Oh, and don't think that I haven't anticipated you responding with something like "Looks like somebody's sensitive," because I'm not. I'm content with my experience with opposite sex, whereas you're probably some geek just sniping away whilst you wait for your next chance to post first.
I don't think it has been improved

HotBot Returns

I've been searching HotBot for the last couple of hours and haven't been able to find this story's dupe. I know there has to be one, as all other Slashdot stories have dupes, but HotBot hasn't rendered any useful results. Guess I'll be sticking with Google.
Maybe if quantum computers were based on the binary system, but in fact their advantage to traditional computers is that they can process more than two values. So, 1000 bits could work just as well as 1024.
Yeah, I wish the "Time Machine" series (a Choose Your Own Adventure type) would be made into a movie, even though I always chose the wrong page and ended up dead.
'Spelt' works, but it is an ancient spelling. There are many such gray areas in the English language, but I was going with the currently accepted method. For example, a split infinitive isn't necessarily a fatal grammar mistake, but it is generally that accepted that it is bad grammar. Similarly, 'spelt' refers to both the a dated form of 'spell' and a type of grain. 'Spelled', on the other hand, refers to only one thing, thus negating the gray area.

People pay for a secure, stable, easy-to-use OS; not whatever he calls "his best."
I know y'all want some sweet tea.

It's a joke off of a Comedy Central comedian, whose name I can't recall.
Insider trades here and here.
He was doing the right thing in scaring them off.
Somebody get a hold of President Bush! We've found the smoking gun!
Err...
Oh wait, it's Chui, not Chiu... nevermind.
Aye... 'Tis true, 'tis true

She is now in her late 40s to early 50s. Her name is Alice. B Toklas. And I love her. And yes she has brownies.

Uh, by using other hard-wired non-pay phones. I can think of at least 3 instances where they didn't use pay phone.

You're so right.
1) Mod the parent of my post up, and the parent of that post down.
2) ?????
3) Profit!

There is another allusion in there, but I didn't get it. Oh well.
Common sense is all the sense there is.

If you didn't get it, read this script.
