No, it's business as usual. If you perform music in public that's made by someone else, you need to pay the artist. This is how a composer gets bread on his table. Sure, if it's on a small enough scale it doesn't matter, but shops and pubs are probably not on that small a scale.
I'd like all of my GUI to be in human readable code, thank you very much. Having binaries for such things is an incredibly stupid idea This was annoying when I dabbled with Delphi: not being able to directly look at how the GUI construction works. In Netbeans, the GUI code is right there in the source, but is locked to prevent accidents, and can be folded away out of sight. Maybe someone can make the case that it's a bad idea, for some reason, but it feels right to me.
The line is determined by those who prescribe and administer the drug. One would hope. Rape victims are the obvious target group, because while this won't erase any memories, the traumatic effect is reduced. That means instead of being fscked up by negative memories, they're merely "normal" negative memories.
Hanging 1s is easy, haven't figured out how to hang 0s though. Shooting them is also fairly difficult. Anybody found a good way to execute 0s? My computer hangs on both of those all the time.
Easier? Many of the consumers who would get conned are unlikely to be aware of the regulations, so they're just as easy to lure as before, from the point of view of the individual, except there's an organization that breathes down your neck if you do con people. Sounds more difficult to me... or perhaps I've been lured into a false sense of security?
They pay... to RECEIVE calls and texts?
If this is true then the American mobile telephony system is more fucked up then I previously imagined. That's to be expected, the American mobile phone system is fucked up beyond all imagination.:p
We are - if anything - individuals Thanks for the confidence-inspiring reassurance.
But you're quite right, gadget-itis is a common affliction among geeks, I'm infected too. As I get older I've tried to take a step back though, I don't constantly upgrade my computer, I think three times before buying anything remotely expensive (and usually arrive at the conclusion that I don't actually need it). Perhaps it's a passing phase in geekdom, or wannabe geekdom.
When your quaint little untested drug can prevent HIV and herpes, along with the risk of permanent infertility from chlamydia, you go ahead and give me a ring. Until then, I and many others like me will rely on the ONLY way to prevent all of the above + HPV. Condoms FTW. Wait, you didn't mean bullshit like "abstinence", I hope?

Assuming 60 fps, your 823 248 725 x 617 436 544 screen intrigues me, and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.
Hint: this is a completely different issue than RIAA tactics.

TeX is not a UI renderer, though. Did any OS have nice fonts back then?
No, the fine is literally XXX. Payment in Porn.
Just make the generators out of rubber duckies.
We need more research. None of these are strong enough for goatse.
Indeed, every single EU antitrust article brought up on /. gets the same "unfair regulation"-, "money grabbers"-wailing comments in it.

The market doesn't keep itself free, the regulators do.
No, he ended it with a phrasal verb, nothing wrong with that.

IIRC last year (or was it 2005), military & defense spending in the world amounted to 140 € per human being. The US represented about half of that.

Actually it is efficient, in that it's a very simple design that works. You could make it more complex, but there's no need to.
Yes, yes it is bad. Or do you want to argue that market forces will cause people to get their needed vaccinations?
An educational drilling MMORPG. Awesome!
Apparently the record stores started maniacally bashing Prince with not much of a leg to stand on, so... an eye for an eye.
Ah yes, ad citatum, the ultimate in slashdot retorts.
