While I've heard several times equating the web with the internet, his is the first time I've come across someone equating search engines with the internet.
It does have sort of an equivalent to that, in the form of a number of articles like "Every person shall have the right to (property|life|...)".
No. It has such articles stating that every human shall have those rights. And therefore AFAIU those fundamental rights do not automatically extend to corporations. IANAL however.
It possibly would not immediately hurt Google. However, surely some other search engine (Bing?) would step in, and with Google being unavailable, it would get all the traffic Google would have gotten.
Note that it is quite easy to comply without violating that law, and at the same time without paying anyone: Just offer the links, without text excerpts. Not as useful as with excerpts, but infinitely more useful than no search engine at all.
Well, the solution to this is to have two dishwashers, one for the clean and one for the dirty dishes. As soon as the dirty dishes dishwasher is full, it's started and then takes the role of the clean dishes dishwasher-:-)
Be careful what you say! My robot read your comment, and not it doesn't want to clean under the TV, pointing to your comment and saying "true robots don't clean under the TV."
Well, there also was recently a story about physics being proven NP hard.
Now we only need a way to translate physics questions into games, put them onto gaming servers, and let the gaming community solve them for us. They'll even pay us for solving the problems!:-)
When the market share of both PCs and non-PC devices grows, what market share is then shrinking to make up for it? Remember, the sum of market shares is always fixed at 100%, no matter how much the market grows.
"It's" == "it is" or "it has". No exceptions. The possessive form of "it" is "its". Maybe it's because English is my 3rd language but this is one of my pet peeves.
Yeah? Well you just used "==" the wrong way.
No, he's just using C++ and an user-defined operator==.
He'll teach the Washington Post readers to imagine a Beowulf cluster of everything, and tell them that in Soviet Russia, the Washington Post reads you.

Hmmm ... I wonder how they manage to pay Rembrandt or Michelangelo. :-)

Yeah, why should we build long lines of iron bars across the country when the problem of transportation has already been solved with horse carriages?
To the gas station because it has that yummy gas.

You were talking market share. Let me quote:
Don't worry. Traditional PCs are also growing in market share.

Of course you can. Just don't be surprised if she looks for a new job afterward.
What makes you think they don't?
I like the old Bekeley labs machine names - they were natural disasters. Examples that I recall are Earthquake, Tornado, Avalanche and Headcrash.
A headcrash is a natural disaster?
"It's" == "it is" or "it has". No exceptions.

Of course. You just have to apply it before the cannon is fired, to give directions via Morse code on where to aim the cannon.
Time to dedicate $1T of borrowed money to block the sun!
In the local shop I get sun blockers for much less.
You got the tense right: This was a tech site.
They promise you to not just take your money without at least pretending to give you something in exchange.
Well, at least to pretend not to do that.

Is the TV installed for the driver to see, of for the passengers to see? You know, few cars have only one seat ...
I think self-driving cars will be the future. Then you can talk, text, or even drink as much as you want.
I can text, check my Facebook, AND drive with no problems. I think I'm one of only about 20 world-wide that can do it.
I only can do that if I'm drunk.
Well, the Titanic going 3D (namely, downwards instead of only horizontally) was exactly the problem.
I heard that they have travelled to the Bermuda triangle.
