If you haven't signed a contract it just means the record company is not allowed to use your performance at all. The only question here is if clapping is considered a performance, if it is worth anything, and if the recording doesn't fall within fair use.
Increasing the bit-depth will not be enough. The human eye sees way more than 3 colors, most are mapped to a 3-color space in the brain but a couple stand out. So we need a color-space with more than RGB to get closer to human vision. Most important are visible infrared and visible ultraviolet. These are needed for low light vision and glow effects, and without them you will never be able to see what is going on in Doom 4. Also to fix low light the bit-space should be made logarithmic, you can't see the difference between (0,0,254) and (0,0,255), but the difference between (0,0,1) and (0,0,2) is significant.
Actually SCO was not only laughed out of german court, they were asked to shut up or be fined for libel, because their statements was so absurd the court could only find them deliberately malicious.

C/C++ might give you 1% CPU speed-up, but by fine-tuning the memory allocations, the block allocations on the disk and the way you communicate with the I/O devices it can give you a speed-up on I/O operations that is not available in any of the modern toy languages.
No Tolkien more or less invented Fantasy literature. There is a huge difference between Fairy Tales, ancient greek novels and fantasy. Tolkien invented the concept of constructing a fantasy universe with specific rules and trying to tell an epic and realistic story within that world using the rules of that world. Most literature before just added fantastic being to the story as they went along without consideration to their impact on the world they live in.
But enough people are not arguing against it. There is just a small minority arguing against it, and a mistaken ideoligy in modern journalism about giving each point of view equal time, no matter how absurd their point of view is.
There are significant differences between the US and Europe, if you haven't noticed...Until recently, the United States appreciated well rounded individuals with wide expertise and the ability to do multiple kinds of jobs over the European preference for specialists. While this preference has changed in recent years, American universities still teach to those old preferences. So, most American universities would say the point of attending is getting a "well rounded" education. Besides, seeking to limit yourself so narrowly means you are more heavily affected when a downturn occurs in your field of specialization.
I think you missed something. In Europe the point of high school like educations called "Gymnasiums" are you give you a "well rounded" education and prepare you for university.
In many European universities the level needed to accieve a graduate is much higher than what required in the US. In many places Ph.Ds are almost unheard off and graduates accieves the same level as American Ph.Ds. This is not because the education is better, but often just because it is longer. These things are not standardized and varies a lot between countries. A person with a European graduate-equivalent education can easily have spend 2 years longer reaching that level than an American graduate.
Well, with everybody breaking this law, the music industry can now cherry pick which DJs to sue. For instance the DJs that do not play the right kind of music!!
I can understand your difficulties. C++ is a mucher simpler and much more logical language than English, if you can't even master English, especially in Denmark where we have a mandatory 7 years of English education and everybody speaks and writes fluent English - No wonder you can't understand C++
The major flaw in your program is the same major flaw Stroustrup has in his vision of C++ - If you need a standard library you shouldn't be using C++ - If you are using C++ - for the love of god - don't use the standard library - If you want portable C++ code, don't EVER EVER use the standard library!!!
Did I mention using the right tool for the job? Use perl for this example.
You can't do fact checking anymore because "believing in facts" have become an opinion, and journalists who question opinions are considered biased. See Creationism, The war on terror and Reagan economics for classic examples.
Well, that and journalists have become incredibly lazy. They reprint whatever the other medias are producing. This means the government and associated businesses only have to control a small fraction of the media to control all media.
Actually, Voight-Kampff tested for emotional responses (or lack thereof), not intelligence. I don't think there was ever a question as to whether or not replicants were intelligent.
I love the modern hindsight we now have no this retro-futuristic point of view. Modern AIs have shown that emotions are a lot easier to implement than intelligence. We have computer pets now, exactly because we have managed to simulate emotions, but not intelligence.
OpenSER, OpenPBX, Yate and several others was all proposed for deletion by the same guy, got voted ''delete'' by same group of people and deleted even though the majority of comments was ''keep''. FreeSwitch somehow survived after an extremely heated debated and interference, but the other decisions was never reverted.
A pretty nasty case of either deletionitis or a small Asteriks conspiracy.
That is not why. Most countries that do not have punitive damage allowances in their laws are usually run by tyrants anyways. The idea of of punitive damages is to punish an entity enough so they think twice before they do it again, it's a civil punishment for a civil case where a criminal punishment should be enacted but cannot be for whatever reason.
You do realize that the US is pretty much the only country in the world with punitive damages, and you just called every other democracy in world for "run by tyrants"?? That's a pretty arrogant statement even for an american asshat like you.
How then do they punish gross negligence or wanton disregard for the harms caused to others or do they just not distinguish between those and accidental harms? The USA may have more than its fair share of asshats, but we don't have a monopoly on bad behavior.
Through criminal law! Duh!
You are still mixing up civil and criminal law. If people put other people at risk or harm them, they are punished by the state through criminal law. Putting other people at risk is a _crime_ not a purchase settled by civil law. Opposite to copyright infringements which are _not_ crimes, but counts as a purchase and settled by civil law.

Hell does even exists in Christianity outside the US. Only the King James version of the bible mention it, and it is considered a mistranslation.

They do take precedence into account, but unlike Common law, precedence is only guiding not binding.
OMG Polio!
Sorry, that doesn't worry me one bit.

You can easily run at least KDE 3 on a pentium or 486. It runs om many old RISC CPU who has similar processing power, all it really needs is memory.
Douglas Adams wrote a couple of episodes for the old show. He didn't write the entire show.

Crazy for going to Starbucks
Crazy for paying 2.5£ for shit coffee
and UTTERLY INSANE for putting milk in their coffee!!
I think you are right
Well, with everybody breaking this law, the music industry can now cherry pick which DJs to sue. For instance the DJs that do not play the right kind of music!!
I think you have some kind of language problem.
I can understand your difficulties. C++ is a mucher simpler and much more logical language than English, if you can't even master English, especially in Denmark where we have a mandatory 7 years of English education and everybody speaks and writes fluent English - No wonder you can't understand C++
Or maybe you just need to study harder.
The major flaw in your program is the same major flaw Stroustrup has in his vision of C++
