all this kind of shit does is insight people to subvert the system even more. people generally have a sense of whats fair, and when you present someone with a $250,000 fine for downloading some piece of crap song, they don't tend to see fair in the equation.
ive been involved in oracle's style of management before, where they say they are about the money, yet when you present them with a money making scenario that goes against their ideals they simply ignore it.
If i was oracle and i bought out sun, i'd put maybe 10 software engineers on open solaris, adding features and drumming up community support. it'd cost them maybe 1 mil a year to run, fucking chump change.
THEN, i pour cash into beefing up the hardware, marketing sparc as the only game in town if you have enterprisy demands. i'd sell them managed contracts where you get the hardware/software/database with support, or rented as businesses love to do. I'd give them the hardware at 10% markup and the software for free, and MILK them on the database.
SUN should be treated as a vehicle to get some vendor lock in happening, not as a money spinner on it's own.
the young generation hate posers? dude have you had a fucking look on myspace or facebook? it's FULL of young posers pretending to be something they aren't.
gen y like to think they are all liberal and open minded, but really they haven't cut the apron strings yet, most of them don't have the life experience to know when advice is good or bad.
I know that was the only part that shocked me - $10 seems like such a tiny amount, it's like the authors are betting most people will just do it instead of invesitgating.
the reason for us assuming the need for water has nothing to do with projecting our requirements on the rest of the universe.
it has everything to do with water's unquie properties. it's non corrosive, non reactive, is liquid at reasonible temperatues and is able to transport other elements without contamination.
life isn't going to exist at 1000c or -200c, and the mechanics of life ie. a fluid transport mechanism, won't work with solids.
if you can offer a viable alternative i'm all ears
I've never understoof why the hell anyone would use a debt card. i guess there is a section of the market with no self control, and hence can't own a credit card.
they could end all this by implementing one time CC numbers, but that is probably more costly then covering the fraud at this point.
barcode scanners output 1/1000th the power of a domestic light bulb. if that is enough to burn her, how the fuck is she still alive from all the death rays comming from the light sockets in her house?
this is the worst kind of bullshit law suit and it's a big part of what wrong with the world today.
how are you going to make them do that? they will just declare they are bankrupt. this system allows anyone to do massive air swings hoping for a pay off at no personal cost to them at all.
this bitch will just go back to living in the trailer park if she fails.
if copyright is only a small part of your agenda, why choose the name "Pirate party", unless your agenda also includes stuff about booty and adventures on the high seas?
from your opening move it seems like copyright is ALL your about.
i don't really give a fuck what warm and fuzzy feeling the nerds on the ground had about it. my point is it's probably not great for 9 out of 10 teams that enter it financially.
more power to NASA if they can find suckers to do their work for peanuts though...

your a perfect example of a penis attached to a forehead.
go on leave, i'm betting you won't.

he's got plenty of other priorities he's trying to juggle, i'd say NASA did pretty well out of this.

sunlight is limited you simpleton. you can't make the sun shine more can you?
i suspect you have no idea what's wrong, you just don't understand the balancing act OS dev's need to do.

i think we need to schedule a bi monthly meeting so we can present our progress on this. i'll order the snacks.
from your opening move it seems like copyright is ALL your about.
corporations don't make laws or form government you silly twit.
i agree, pirate party is a retarded immature name. these clowns undermine serious copyright reform.
isn't this a null issue due to the cd tax in canada?

2. merely patenting something doesn't make you money
ok go out finance a team in a NASA prise for a few 100k, fail to win then lets see you tell us it's productive.
maybe you should try posting some facts, instead of some shit which tries to push all the pop culture buttons?
so what new codec did you develop since it's so easy? oh right none, because it's not fucking easy at all.
h.264 has won, give it a rest.
huh? so what if apple is makin locked up devices, they are a tiny part of the web market.
