"Green vs Libertarian would make for a great election, don't you think?)"
Just so long as the libertarian's don't win, sure. Trendy conservatism packaged as progressive, there's two reasons people espouse libertarianism- They want to fully hand over power to the leading corporations of the day or they're emo hipsters in their 30's.
Ahh, the always brilliant advocation of nuclear weapon use.
When using your big sticks is considered a legitimate fallback point, you've obviously failed.
You are surprised and upset because a discussion about the President's press release regarding the militarization of space gets political?
Because that is the main point of this policy, that the space arms race is going to be started up again. If you could, would you prepare a room for me on whatever planet it is that you are living on? I think I might need an off-world place to crash in a few years if this policy goes forward as planned.
I'll take the coach seats.

So a hundred wealth donors only had to put up 10,000 to get their genes decoded in 10 days? That means I can sign up for the 100 day process for only $1000, and the 1000 day process for just $100.
I can wait three years.

Don't worry, there will always be lo-tech. Wealthy bodies are as vulnerable as poor ones.
If we can just get our hands on a navy trained dolphin we should be alright.

How much does it cost to get your product listed on slashdot these days?
After being sued by the RIAA, is it feasible to sell all of my wordly possessions and prepay for my own or a relatives college education and start eating at a soup kitchen?
I don't think they should break it, but if they do that would be where I would do it, or at the arrival to lake town, after their escape from the barrels. Transitions from travelling misadventures to the big dragon fight
I see you failed to state what the item in question was.
"After having a malicious "customer" (who hadnt actually bought anything, but envoked the DCMA over an item which was perfectly legal.) "
Agreed, it seems like this is meant to be added in to a redbox or an industry standalone kiosk. They can basically create a dvd store the size of an arcade machine in malls, shopping centers, etc. A massive catalog of dvd content, with a stack of a 1000 or so blank dvd's that can have css protection burned at the kiosk.
Joe User can go up at anytime, insert credit card and scroll through or search the titles, and have the hot new release burned for him with a nice printed label. At the same time he can get an obscure cult flick that most stores wont bother stocking because. Less overhead, more convenient.
Hopefully this will turn up some damning evidence on RIAA, but I no longer get my hopes up about anything related to them. Even if this works as a defense the chances that the DOJ is going to reopen the monopoly investigation is probably nil.
The part that interested me is -
"that the RIAA companies forfeited their copyright claims thanks to their coordinated and illegal effort to monopolize digital music distribution"
What exactly do they mean by forfeiting copyright claims? Surely they don't mean that the members of RIAA would lose their copyright over their music? They've got senators that kill those sorts of laws don't they?

Sprint also had the Touch Pro 2, CDMA but also with a sim option for international

Then you haven't been listening to the voters in the red states. You forget swift boat veterans for truth?

I've got a feeling that they will probably go with a more influential director, like Michael Bay.
I met every single one of those conditions just a few years ago. Except I'm a white male american citizen(born and raised)
Aaah, Anonymous Coward, we know thee well

Sweet! I was born in 82' bring on the eternal ennui!
I suppose that's why I don't have a job providing tech support in a language I don't speak well.

Does this mean the dead old napster is coming back? Is it still going to be flooded with Brittany spears? Cause I can do without that.
Meh, I've got rear wheel drive, and my engine is over the driving wheels. Never been stuck
