They don't even have to post them publicly. They can just post them for their support contract users, at least as of GPLv2 - if you get a binary, you must be able to get source. You don't have to be able to get source without the binary.
Even freaking Aveos have line-in standard nowadays, IIRC.
It's just aftermarket that sucks. And I have a low-end head unit that has rear-accessible line-in, and ran a cable to my car's center console for that.
Dismantle a massive, marginally successful, republic that the Communist regime is financially dependent on. If the US goes under, the Chinese never get their money back, and go under in quick succession.
Because the government it's trying to replace (or, rather, the parties that completely control the government) has control over the media, and the populace won't know about them, due to that control.
If the media does cover them, they'll interview the craziest supporter, and be painted as a bunch of crazies that want to destroy America or something.
Even if they get decent media coverage, people still will think that it's safest to vote against the party that they feel will actually destroy America, rather than for the third party, because voting for third parties is "throwing your vote away" - no accident on the part of the Democrats and Republicans, they want the differences between them to look larger than they actually are.
Arguably, the second amendment's intent was to allow nuclear weapons to be owned by the populace.
That is, to allow the populace to own what's needed to fight the government. If it's nukes, it's nukes.
Now, I actually think the correct answer is to create a shadow party within both the Republican and Democratic parties, get the shadow party to power, keep them in power for long enough to get all three branches of government controlled completely (presidency, 2/3 of both House and Senate, and majority in Supreme Court,) and then reveal their true allegiance once the shadow party is in power.
From what I've heard, doing RLL on MFM drives is very much possible. The problem is doing it reliably, because a lot of MFM drives from after RLL drives started coming out were drives that weren't good enough to do RLL, but were good enough to do MFM. Yup, they used binning back then.
Doing MFM on RLL drives is pointless, but should be perfectly reliable, as MFM is lower capacity than RLL. Only reason to do it is if you have a legacy system that can't be upgraded to RLL, and you can't find an MFM drive.
First off, where did the parent mention any personal ties to SCO?
Second, the SCO in question is Old SCO (Santa Cruz Operation.) Old SCO sold their Unix rights and such to Caldera, and then renamed themselves Tarantella, and were bought out by Sun, who in turn was bought out by Oracle. They've got nothing to do with the lawsuits.
The SCO you're talking about is New SCO (The SCO Group,) which is what Caldera renamed themselves to after purchasing Old SCO's Unix rights.
Wonder if the Streisand effect can be applied to jury nullification.
Maybe someone should go for jury duty for a high-profile case, and then mention that they are aware of jury nullification, get thrown off, and make a HUGE stink about it online and as far into the media as possible.
The problem is, without copyright, you'd literally have to nuke every major company off the face of the planet to get your utopia.
Here's what happens, if copyright is abolished without destroying the companies: the major companies have a lot of money. They can promote more than smaller companies and individuals. So, a smaller company or an individual comes up with a movie idea, maybe even producing the movie, and releasing it.
Someone at one of the major companies sees it, and makes a big-budget copy of it, making a lot of money off of it, concentrating wealth. And, using careful application of FUD, DRM, and contracts, they'll keep people from going towards pirated content.
Well, the reason for the safe harbor provisions is that it would make running ISPs and providing online services EXTREMELY expensive otherwise.
YouTube would have to charge thousands of dollars per month for access. Bandwidth caps would be in the tens of megabytes for ISPs charging under $100/mo.
Tunneling through the government approved connection? Um... that defeats the purpose.;)
Unless you mean physically tunneling. As in, digging a hole.
As for a democratic government... this is a republic, not a democracy. And, it's controlled by corporations that would be willing to push through such a law just to ensure their profits - the MAFIAA would LOVE this.
The thing is, in a 30 second commercial, you can use a sped-up announcer or 2 point fonts that are completely unreadable, but TECHNICALLY meet the requirements.
In a 140 character twitter message, you can do a bit of unintelligible abbreviation, but even then, 140 characters isn't enough to include the disclaimer ITSELF.
Wifi detector cars. Sniff the connection, if there's an encrypted connection that doesn't use a government-approved private key, then triangulate, and arrest the owner of the access point.
Free space optical isn't vulnerable to that one, although FSO gear is more easily visible to the naked eye.

Except they've put in their statements that sometimes they may not do what's best for the stock holders, if it's not morally acceptable, IIRC.

What if that party exists solely to institute election systems that are harder to game, so that third parties are viable?
Besides, it's not like the Democrats and Republicans haven't effectively snuck people into power, too.

RTFA. That's exactly what they're doing.
www.google.cn now redirects to www.google.com.hk - a site that is not affected by Chinese censorship, and is in the same language.

Except it's early 80's (1983,) and it appears to be Version 7.
Which is Ancient Unix, although barely.

Except it's not the last defense.
We've gone through soap, ballot, and jury.
Pretty sure there's still one box, and that one's even stated as a constitutional right.

I think all of these asinine patents should be enforced. Go for the reductio ad absurdum approach.
Then, everyone will be buying Chinese tools on the black market, and the US economy will collapse even further.

On older OnStar-equipped cars, the OnStar stuff was in one or two separate boxes, and you could unplug them from the harness.
IIRC, though, on newer cars, it's integrated into the ECU. Unplug that, and your engine doesn't run.
You could probably unplug the antennae, and build a Faraday cage around the connections, though.

Finland's codified 1 Mbps broadband (not just basic internet access) as a right.
You can code around willful stupidity.
Problem is, the end result of that is the iPhone, with restricted, pre-approved application choices.
(Then again, if you count jailbreaking as willful stupidity, then even it fails at that.)

You could learn pretty much everything about a headless Solaris/SPARC system.
OpenSPARC T2 to learn about the CPU (and chipset, it's a SoC,) OpenSolaris to learn about the OS.
Graphics would be the only thing in a normal system that wouldn't be included.

Except Newegg reviews are the YouTube comments of the review world.
