Who cares about packets. What if I just start emailing people in Pakistan Base64 encoded random numbers? Will they have to prove it's random numbers? Does anyone have a list of government officials email addresses?
It proves that the original statement that Humble Bundle makes more money from Linux & Mac combined than from Windows. You know, what I was commenting on. Showing that the parent of my original comment was wrong.
I'm looking at the Toshiba Tablet. It has one feature I really like: "Battery Replaceable? Yes, and you can do it without and tools." A full sized USB port and an SB port don't hurt, either.
Do the Telco's really need to keep that data beyond a month or two? Does it need to be *everybody* or just a random anonymized sample for system reliability?
Yes, they do. They need data about usage and location so they can track cell usage growth (or decline) in areas that might need more cell towers to handle the load. The data could be anonymized, though.
Come on, once they started selling PLEX, you've been able to trade real life money for ships, items, etc. This will just make the relationship more obvious.
If you read the article, they did appeal and had the damages reduced to $27,000. They are appealing that to get it further reduced. They have already lost, twice (original case by not responding and the appeal), now it's just for the court to determine damages. As for free speech issue, it's really not. We have to assume that the spammer in this case was not breaking any laws. As such they were, as much as we might find it annoying, a legitimate business. Being called a 'spammer' might have an effect on this business and that is why they filed the lawsuit. While you have the right to say what you want, with that right comes the responsibility for what you have said.
And as someone else pointed out, no matter what happens, they will have a hard time collecting anything due to the jurisdictional issue.
No. Because they didn't respond to the first case, they lost and now have to pay. What they are trying to do is get the payment as small as possible. $1 judgement usually means "You are right, but you have suffered no real damages but we have to award you something".
One of my favorite problems was from my Dynamics class: Given a VTOL aircraft of weight W that is carrying G gallons of fuel (with weight of X kg/gallon), burning Z gallons per second from two engines that provide Y thrust each, and are angled A from the vertical. Where is the plane after 3 seconds? 7 Seconds?
Google needs to allow you to authorize specific permissions for apps, not their current 'all or nothing' system. This way you could say "Yes, you can have my position because I believe a GPS mapping system needs that, but no you can't have my address book, since a GPS system doesn't need that". Sure it would screw advertisers over, but I don't care about them. Not everything in the world needs to have advertising on it.
How are the thousands of defendants supposed to do anything when they don't know who they are yet? Who was the opposing lawyer? Was there even one at all?
No, you use Sharp Develop, MySql, Apache, Linux and Mono. None of which have license fees. Again,.NET has no licensing fee. If you choose to use products that do, that has *nothing* to do with having to license.NET.
He is completely unable to understand that it runs only on Windows and produces applications that only run on Windows. Both of which carry a license fee.
Mono.
Again, there is no fee to use.NET. You don't have to use Visual Studio, you don't have to use SQL Server. You don't have to use Windows. Look, no licensing fees at all.
As for "why.NET": because it's a tool that lets us get our job done faster, with less bugs, and higher maintainability. And like any tool, sometimes it's the right tool, and sometimes it isn't.
There is no licensing to use.NET. You can even get Visual Studio for free (Express editions) which have no restrictions on developing business applications.
Hmm, when I type in "toy story 3" google suggests that I'm looking for "toy story 3 dvd", "toy story 3 download", "toy story 3 download free"."toy story 3 dolls". Seems Google is suggesting that I might want to download it.

The worst the Christians ever did was the Inquisition.
Really? Take a glance over at http://notachristian.org/christianatrocities.html and start counting the 10's of millions killed in the name of Christ.
Correct, total Payments, not total Orders.
Really? I guess you can't read pie charts http://www.humblebundle.com/
I can read the chart.
But what does it prove?

Where did he say that was before taxes and expenses?

I'd be more interested in seeing the graduation rate. I see a lot of people on programming forums who have no business being in a CS program.
For $25 do I only get ads for a week or two? Or for the rest of the devices lifetime? It's not worth the discount if the latter.

Isn't that just word problems? I've always enjoyed them, but I knew most of my classmates dreaded them.
So where are the non-free apps that don't ask for permission to everything on the phone? I don't see them out there either.

whoosh
Since I wear polarized lenses already, I only get to see 1/2 the movie. I should get a discount.

You only remember when you see the coupon around your wife's period, even though you are probably seeing them all the time.
You underestimate my OCD :)
I'll agree about lipitor vs beef intake, they haven't gone that far.
