So, how does the comparison with mixed-race marriage work? The bans on mixed-race marriage were bans on particular pairings, but they weren't about the definition of marriage. All the example you gave were similar--various marriages & divorces being allowed, but not the definition of marriage changing.
They're both just bans on particular pairings. The relationship remains the same.
You might say that you can't simply abstract away the gender of the participants. The people concerned with race said the same thing.
How about this. We let people choose if they pay. If they pay then they get to watch the movie. If they don't pay then they can do something else with their time.
I heard an interview with Sam Donaldson on NPR a couple of weeks ago.
He pointed out that, outside of doing interviews and covering press conferences, TV news relies on newspapers to research and break stories that the TV guys then cover.
Roger that. I'm playing D&D for the first time in 15 years. I decided to dive back in when I saw what they were doing with the 4th edition, and I've been loving it.
Remember that in the US copyright was originally 14 years or rather 7 + 7 (7 when you registered, extensible by another 7).
All I could find when I went looking for data was this page in wikipedia (I know, hardly a conclusive source) that seemed to indicate 14+14=28 years. Not that this invalidates your point that the term has been extended significantly.
Exactly. Pure speculation. It's amazing how many people are talking about it as if it were true.
I'm going to start some more rumors.
There is a naked picture of Linus Torvalds secretly encoded in the Linux sources.
Mac OS X silently uploads your porn collection to a Cupertino data center where Steve jobs personally sifts through it for the really good stuff.
The Zunes were originally programmed to explode on December 31st, killing their owners, but there was a bug in the code since nobody wanted to test it.
Yeah, my understanding is that steam was originally designed to work like this.
In reality, games released on Steam do not use this functionality because the user experience is not what people expect. People would rather queue up a game and come back later to play than start playing immediately and experience random pauses during play.
One of the early games (rag doll kung fu) took advantage of this by loading low res cut scenes with the game, and then downloading high-res in the background:
Through the magic of steam, we were able to reduce the size of the initial download to 50 megs approx. So you can get playing much sooner! However, when you first install, in the background, steam is still working away to deliver the full quality video - a further 250 meg download. So be sure to leave steam running on your computer, even when you're not playing RDKF! You can still play through the whole game, but the quality of the cutscene video will increase once the complete download is finished.
Nobody here is saying you can't sell GPL games. I believe he said that you can't make money doing it.

It's a great idea, but it's disingenuous to hold it up as an example of a business model.
The Star Trek franchise lost me a long time ago, but I'm genuinely intrigued by this new film. At this point in time, a project helmed by JJ Abrams has far more potential than any other overseen by Lucas.
I agree 100%. The franchise has sunk lower and lower with each passing series.
Honestly, he would have to do a pretty horrible job to sink to the level of the stuff Paramount was spewing out.
I had the same experience.. I was going to replay it to see the other ending, and then suddenly she was there cowering in front of me... Could I really kill a little girl and suck out her adam?

You don't actually think you can shove a genie back in a bottle, do you?
So, if I'm understanding your argument, there are good programmers, but none of them are actually trying to program securely.
They could stop writing vulnerabilities if they wanted to...

If you are a good programmer, you can do safe programs in C++ or any other language.
So it must just be that there are no good programmers. Because I haven't seen any safe web browsers, word processors, or PDF readers.
No, I'm saying that the anti-miscegenation crowd couldn't see past the races of the people getting married. To them, that was the overriding issue.
Today, most of us wouldn't register it as an issue at all.
With respect to marriage, I'm more concerned with issues like:
"Do these two people love each other?"
"Are they good for each other?"
"Are they ready to dedicate the rest of their lives to each other?"

Seems simple enough.

So we're still screwed.
I've heard of many apps being rejected, but never for that reason. Do you have a reference?

I guess that means she can halt her research now. But it's hard to say for sure. If she kept going and won it again she's be a turing-machine...

have commented out a section of your code without having to insert a comment character independently on each line.
I usually just go to the start of the first line, hit ctrl-v to start block visual mode, go to the start of the last line and hit I#<esc>
That's capital i, pound, then the escape key.
