They're not saying that. They want free non-commercial use of copyrighted stuff & shortened copyright lifespan for everything else. The GPL would do just fine.
War on education and young people, go! Those filthy young ones, all they think of is the initial sin, right? Although the initial sin was trying to be equal to God (pride), not sex. By the way, Adam and Eve couldn't have been adulterating if it was just the two of them, and they were married, right?. Anyway, let's sue them kids, let's take their money away, let's brainwash them, let's put them in jail, that will teach them, right? They need to learn that being younger than us power people never pays.
That means that if I go back to Europe, my kids will have much better chances in life than any of yours... Oh well, so be it then.
That's right, but after Athens, there was the Byzantine Empire and then the Ottoman Empire, etc... In the west, there were the Romans, then the medieval kings, etc... So democracy was re-discovered relatively late in Europe... Anyway, you're right.
... that which can be explained by incompetence. I doubt the phone jockeys could tell what was going on, they just knew their company only supports Windows. To dodge stupidity, one must learn to hmm... bend reality a little.
Try deleting all files from C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch . It will cause the first few boots to be painfully slow, but then it should recover with 2 or 3 subsequent reboots.
Like the previous poster said, we all produce tons of data daily without storing it. Mobile phone calls. VOIP. Video conferencing. IM without history. etc. That's countless gigabytes daily worldwide...
That, my friend, is *completely* beside the point. Your OS uses 1024 as a base for these measures, and so does every software I can think of. You shouldn't need a bachelor's degree in CS to be able to figure out hard drive sizes when you go to the store...
Actually, they're quite consistent. Good are companies that sell services and give software and content out for free. Bad are companies that sell software and content and persecute file sharers. Evil are monopolists that cash on those monopolies, and virus and malware developers. Nothing communist here. Trust me, I used to live in a people's republic...
I'm glad someone showed the pirates from RIAA who the boss really is. We, geeks, are the ones who have the final word in this modern world. They all depend on us for all the business they do. It's time we showed them who has the real power! It's time to blow the real pirates out of the water for good! Go Jobs, get them!

I loooove this. Linking copying of information to communism and murder. Just gotta love that!
Sorry, my friend, you're speaking to deaf ears...
Parent deserves to be modded informative.

Ahem... Thousands? :)

How about Java's inline inner classes? True, you can't modify final int a; but you can modify final int[] pA = new int[1]; :-)
I think you're right, but the term just exposes the ridiculousness of the situation, so they would never use it, for PR reasons...
Why are idiots running the patent desk? Someone didn't do their job. Fire them!

Seriously, how many brilliant inventions have we heard of lately, and how many of those vanish just days after being announced?

Thanks! I just clicked, now they know of my good intentions!
I suppose most people will start clapping their hands singing "I told y#($%#$%@![NO CARRIER]
Good point. I was thinking in terms of new data, not maintained data, but anyway.
Isn't this exactly what RFID passports are intended for? I mean, facilitating ID theft? :)

That's right. Shop smart. Shop S-MART! :P
