If you don't pay the rent, leave valuable customer information in file cabinets and are kicked out (after getting an eviction notice), don't complain if someone comes in and uses the space for a crack den and the customer info for their own nefarious purposes.
I'll assume by "don't complain" what you actually meant was "do something about." (You know, since the OP wasn't "complaining", he was asking what to "do about.")
Now, you expect him to, what, just ignore this and let the havoc wreak? If you're a stupid 18 year old and end up with 20k in credit card debt, do you just move on and keep letting the penalties pile up? Probably, but that's obviously not what you should do.
Integrating internet and phone in to a place it has no business, by a company who can't do anything people actually like. Sounds like a typical Rim job.
I'm not either, so... honest question. How does gravity affect light? How much matter is in space? Or, more specifically, in the space between Earth and pulsars visible on Earth?
With the exception of Guantanomo Bay, which I won't comment on because I'm not familiar enough, all of your examples are completely moot. The PRC government has actively and blatantly ignored human rights and censored the information coming in their country. The US has had some crazies in war situtations abuse and murder people, and in all cases it was condemned not only by the general public, but by pretty much everyone in the world -- including, in many cases, the people that actually DID IT.
The US government isn't (and wasn't) conspiring to wipe out an entire village in Vietnam or to murder POWs. (Or, if they are, this isn't the evidence) The point is, China's government has taken a totalitarian role in denying its citizens their rights as human beings. If you want to list EVERYONE with ANY associtiation to ANYONE that's EVER done another person wrong, good luck.

Thank you. I ran an open source project for a few years and came home one night to find to find that my webhost had taken its site down after being contacted by a company with a similar name. The company claimed they'd tried to contact me, explained how my project was causing them harm, but the simple fact of the matter was that my project's name did not infringe on theirs.
I ended up renaming the project. I've told the story dozens of times, and the response is always the same. "That's BS! They can't do that! Go to court!" People don't understand that $20 a month in unmanaged Google ads doesn't cover lawyers the same way that company's actual paying customers do.
My biggest problem with Reader has been that it's a horribly slow piece of garbage with 3rd party alternatives that work great. I'd call this "strike 2" but it's already way beyond "out."
So what seperates IsoHunt from say an MSN Chatroom, where I happen to come across such a buddy. The fact that it makes the process more efficient?
2 things.
1) You've got it. It's more efficient. Choose your battles. If you're an environmental activist, are you going to go after the guy flicking a cigarette butt out his car window or the electronics recycling center that dumps everything in a city park?
2) My original main point. Can torrent sites be used for legitimate purposes? Of course. But people perpetuating that argument are, apparently, caught up in theory and completely ignoring reality. The sites are made for software piracy, pure and simple. In fact, the only time I've ever seen TPB used legitimately by a guy uploading a demo of his software, the comments berated and insulted him.
If I go home tonight, can I log on to MSN Messager and expect it to be painfully easy to download all of this week's Xbox 360 releases with just a few clicks?
I doubt you could prove without a doubt that these sites were created exclusively for software piracy, but this is one case in which I think the intent is winning out over the word of the law. "Stop breaking the law, asshole!"
Law Enforcement: If You're a Gun Owner, You Have to Be Responsible
Or what? Someone will shake their finger at you?
Or your daughter might accidentally shoot herself. If punishment is intended to deter or rehabilitate you, what more do you think they really need? Any punishment now would just be for the sake of making these people pay.
Right now an engineer at Intel is slapping his forehead and saying, out loud, "Why didn't I think of that? We should have been trying to make faster chips that use less power all along!"
Component video cables are hardly ubiquitous. Lots of people have never even seen them and even less could tell you what they were if you asked. The majority of people with HDTVs bought a $150 HDMI cable along with them.

5. and they ARE cool... until you put a bunch of servers in them, and then they heat up, and STAY hot, and are harder to cool than on the surface
How do you figure? Unless you're talking about the logistical complications (your point #2), I don't see any reason.

Did this article say something?
but I end up forgetting most of the movie.
Sounds like it worked.

I'm interested in this too, but I don't even know what to google. What exactly am I looking for? What are these things called? Thanks!
What is this, 1629? What's mysterious about Jupiter's Great Red Spot?
I'm nowhere near being an astrophysicist.

I think that's the popular contraction of "wang" and "not." Am I correct? If so, your sentence doesn't make sense.

Uh.. You set the conditions, and you already knew the outcome. Let's review:
1. Mafia boss gets caught.
2. It's good when the bad guys get caught, but bad when the good guys get caught...
What was the question again?

The first thing that came to your mind clearly wasn't RTFA.

Meh. Minorities can't be racist, women can't be sexist. Good luck reforming society.
You're full of shit. HDMI is digital. If you get a picture, there's no signal degredation.
Component video cables are hardly ubiquitous. Lots of people have never even seen them and even less could tell you what they were if you asked. The majority of people with HDTVs bought a $150 HDMI cable along with them.
I'd imagine that when the compensation is an upgrade to the latest phone model, just about every claim "looks" suspicious.
