They wrote the license so that if you link with the code yours becomes GPL
No. They wrote the license so that if you link with the code and distribute it, yours would have to be released as GPL or any compatible license. It doesn't become GPL. You can't be forced to release the code, only to stop distributing the software linked to GPL software without following the license.
Sorry if I sound angry, but it's wording like that that enables people to get away with calling the GPL viral and cancerous.
Swedish government ministers are not allowed to comment on these matters or promise anything like that in a specific case. There's an article in English Wikipedia about it: Ministerstyre, Minister rule. The police and lawyers can comment on it, though. So when you say "Sweden", you are talking about different authorities in Sweden.
The OEM version is sold without support. That's the main difference compared to the retail version (in Sweden, at least).
I paid $140 for it. I would probably never have bought the full version at $240. (These are prices in Sweden, Swedish taxes included.) If I remember correctly, the box doesn't say anything about me having to sell the computer and not use it myself. It does say that I have to put the OEM license sticker on the computer that I install the software on. I guess Microsoft realise that they can't enforce such a contract here.
I think you're confusing personal name and public username. There are probably a hundred thousand people named "John Jackson", but only one with the public username "john.jackson". If you search for "John Jackson", you will get a list of people named "John Jackson", and each entry will be linked to facebook.com/publicusername (if they've picked one). That public username can be used for email.
Your Facebook email is based on your public username.
What this also means is that if you have someone's "public username", you don't need to see their profile to learn their email address. You can get the public username from any search or friend list, concatenate "@facebook.com" to it and start spamming.
It's called Pascal's wager. Look it up. According to it, it's cheaper to believe in a god that doesn't exist than to not believe in Him and risk being punished to Hell.
Parsers of XML, HTML and SGML need and may only support U+002F SOLIDUS as "closing slash". If that weren't the case, we'd already have problems with people writing and .
Raise your hand if you couldn't code a parser that detects those characters and takes appropriate action, such as popping bidi characters.
I'd love to be able to write IPA when discussing pronunciation, or actually write out words in other languages, ohm character for discussing electronics, pound and yen signs for currency... Hey, even a bigger whitelist than what we have now would be great!

Strangely, it's only spelt "New Zealand" in English (and languages that don't localize it). The reason everyone else gets it wrong is that the country is named for the Dutch Zeeland, not the Danish Zealand.
The rest of the world gets to vote neither for nor against the senator that killed the Internet. Why do we need to suffer/be persuaded? The EU has already spoken out against SOPA.

Nine years. It's been nine years.
On the other hand, Visual Studio has upper case menu titles. To get normal case titles, you need to perform a registry hack.
I like how you've been modded down except everything you've said is, at a very basic level, correct.
There's no "-1: Incorrect" mod, so why would correctness matter when moderating?
2007: $100000 -> 45,000 tax // sabatical -> 0 Tax. // only worked half a year -> $6000 Tax
2008: $85000 -> 39,000 tax
2009: $0
2100: $35,000
Cool! You finally got the time machine to work! But is that 35k in 22nd century dollars?

Why wouldn't the public username be unique? Can I access two different people's profile pages through https://www.facebook.com/publicusername?

Don't need no computer analysis for that.
Agreed, there's no need to back up theses with data.

In C, ~ is the bit inverse (or "not") operator.

Meanwhile, the iPad 3 has 2048 x 1536 in under 10 inches. That alone is almost enough for me to want one.

They should start with just targeting DC. If that doesn't get any reactions, then do the whole US for a day. Or the world, for that matter.
Bambi, a Life in the Woods is a novel written by Felix Salten and released in 1923. Though not public domain, it was not created by Disney.
