I am fifteen, I know how to write in cursive, but I never really do, unless I have to. My print is not really print either, it has the connected letters like cursive, but it is generally made up of regular letters. Personally, other than a few teachers, I do not know anyone who writes in cursive unless they have to. And realistically, unless we are writing an essay, we tend to write in the IM style shorthandand add symbols like the "smiley things," "These are my favorite alternative smileys"
Anyhow, the way I figure it the only time I will have to use anything that resembles cursive is to sign something and technically, I wouldn't have to use cursive. And to clear things up, I saw a post somewhere on these pages that said The last time I used cursive was on the SAT..., I don't no about when (s)he took the SAT but I just took it this weekend and it said Copy the following in the lines provided (DO NOT PRINT).... This suggest the use of cursive, but does not mandate it, if you had another way of writing you wouldn't have to write in cursive and they coudn't do anything about it.
If all else fails, everyone in future and present generations that will be affected by this can become doctors, then it won't matter what our cursive looks like; as a matter of fact, it would be better if it is bad.
doesn't this fit under illegal search and siezure?
I am pretty sure, but not certain, that you have the right to view the search warrant to see if it is valid. Now since your internet provider gets the warrant they have they right to look at it, but since they are not searching your property its legal for them to take whatever your IP has on you. But isn't any information that the IP gets on you illegal since it was an illegal search and seizure of sorts or did we sign away all of rights to privacy when we signed their EULA thing?
make and distribute their own software for viewing these documents free of charge. It's not like we can't already get these documents realitively cheaply by mail or download them as a pdf.
The government has the money and resources to make a simple "MS Word style" program and make it publicly available to open any document they release.
In my opinion this would be benificial because it would not force any company to change their practices, even though I think some of them should. It would prevent any third party company from making a program that would undermine the integrity of the file (sounds absurd but it would probably happen, i.e. something pertaining to Microsoft opened by the Microsoft application is modified, just a guess)
I didn't understand the articles very well, so if this is offtopic, do as you will.
There are some gamers who make a living off of playing games and there are others that lose a lot of money playing games such as college students.
As for the friends, with the advent of internet bsed multiplayer games friends are not require, but it is more fun if you are playing someone you know.
While this is true, the legallity of this is more dependant one the location of the dumpster that the patterns were taken from, because if they were legally obtained, they can be sold by a third party (i.e. garage sale).
However, if they were not legally obtained, McCalls has the right to do this; although they should not have used the DMCA, they have a legitimate clame to the patterns.
Perhaps they could invest in a lighter, through the patterns in dumpster and have a bonfire...
If it is like it is where I live dumpster diving is considered trespassing, unless the dumpster is on the curb (or near it for that matter). If it is on the curb it is lawful to take whatever you want because the previous owner has given up all previous rights they had to it by placing it on the curb. Thus making them this so called "abandoned property."
In reffering to Antitrust, are you implying that Microsoft is stealling and even killing for the code running on the phone?
Now, let's assume they are. I know the people at Microsoft are thick, but are they so bad that they would steal inferior code? It just doesn't make sense.
I am interested in the technology, but, like everything else I am going to let it mature before I even think about purchasing one. And besides, what is actually so hard about carrying a PDA and a phone, what did people do before computers?: Bob: George what do you carry with you? George: I carry a day planner, phone book, a few rolls of quarters, and a legal pad. Bob: Why? George: So I can keep track of my day, make phone calls and produce documents Bob: Really, I got this new fangled smart phone that does all that plus some... but it only works for five minutes every other half hour.
Your phone has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down
This is assuming you agreed to the EULA which you agreed to by: openning the box, turning on the phone, and then clicking yes to the message that appears (if you click no, the phone becomes inopperatable). Then, after you accept the EULAs you must activate your phone with a carrier and Microsoft, failure to do this will cause your phone to be inopperatable whithin 30 days.
We, Microsoft, reserve the right to use any media for advertising or other purposes that is and/or was on any phone that was activated... if any of this media is pertaining to Microsoft in any way, shape, or phone, you will be subject to a unlawful usage lawsuit. See article Q!@#$you for further details.

First off, I'm not getting into the money issue (like it matters to them any way). But any way, shouldn't the DoD like open source even if they don't use it so they can make sure there isn't some hidden feature to start a terrorist attack.

That is right, but people wouldn't pirate as much stuff if the companies selling it didn't believe in 400+% inflation. And besides, most of the stuff on P2P is pron, who cares about pirating porn?

What, are they claiming that a dumpster is copyright control?
Not exactly I think they are saying you are violating copyright laws if you get into your neighbors garbage and selling whatever you find.
