I realize this was posted on CNN, but could we please attribute these stories correctly? This is an AP story. I think it makes sense to say "an AP story (by way of CNN.com)" or something similar. Credit where credit is due.
i wonder if i know this guy. i was thinking a similar thing, but place a display on the headstone (and of course the net). kinda performance art of sorts.
i think that's a very interesting idea...i wonder if this could make prostitution legal...at the very least, it would move all the business overseas. what the hell am i saying?
amen. comcast has a choice: keep service the way it is, thus earning 45 bucks a month from me (for modem service)on top of the 45 i pay for cable tv, or change it and lose 90 bucks a month. god willing many will follow suit, but i sorely doubt they'll be able to live without tv.
bottom line is this - if you own something, or have lost it, as long as you paid for it, download the files. burn accordingly. a co-worker told me that he almost walked out of a record store at lunch today having spent 100 bucks on cds, of which he owns the vinyl. download and burn. unless you're one of those super-wacky audiophiles, you won't know the difference.
it won't necessarily prevent him from being prosecuted. there's some minimum level of expected behavior from a party entering into an agreement, and unless there's a bulleted summary or something similar above the fold in the EULA box, it might not be enforceable if someone goes after the originator, and thus the originator could be charged if something bad happens. btw, ianal.
I would recommend that you don't say anything, and in the event that someone complains about incompatibility, you refund their money and apologize, or work out some other arrangement. This argument assumes that the majority of players can handle cd-rs, of course, which i think is fair.
you're absolutely right. and i'm not kidding. did i overreact? yes. am i tired of everyone constantly attacking america, being counter attacked, and then getting pissed off like i initiated things? yes. it was a joke, but in poor taste. now if you'll excuse me, i have to go cry you a river. which i'll assume you want of beer or maple syrup (hey, i had to strike back somehow, right?).
as someone who worked in one of those buildings, my hand is raised quite high, my middle finger facing north. choose your shots very wisely.
that being said, if your country wasn't of such marginal importance to everyone but yourselves, maybe you could partake in the glory of having your civilians, coworkers, etc. killed. fuck you and your shitty country. at least we don't have an entire state full of french people we take it in the proverbial ass from.
phew, i was beginning to wonder if i was the only person that knew what i was talking about. which is commonly the case. now if you'll excuse me, i have to go listen to some of that strongbad techno.

well, at the very least hell should be freezing over, since we won't be pumping as much pollution into the air, thus lowering temperatures.
I suspect decades if not centuries. If there's one thing the Catholic church seems to do well, it's think _very_ long term, and they're very patient.
Or the corrupt pre-Reformation Papacy?
;)
as opposed to the non-corrupt, post-reformation papacy?

say old chap, that's not my hand...
and thus teledildonics became a reality.
C'mon asshat, spend at least thirty seconds doing your job.
you're correct, but all the non-cable channels suck. :) except maybe pbs (public television).
Cancel your cable TV subscription.

i'll take that. makes all the extra typing worth it.
you're a funny guy michael. would you please change your name to asshat, so i can just type 'asshat' for the subject, instead of stating the equality?

yeah, and there are so many of them. and they try to secede on a regular basis. take off hoser.

Yeah, we may be assholes, but at least we're not a bunch of pinko fuckheads. enjoy your third rate utopia.

They should all move to Strongbadia. I can see it now... Strongbadia. Population: 20,000 humans, 1 tire.
can you imagine a beowulf cluster of these?
Wasn't Spielberg paying for some of this, or was that a one-time thing?
