    i don't know what the case was in galoob v. nintendo. the case involving sega was the system would not load the game unless it displayed the SEGA logo. someone put out a game without a license from sega and eventually it was decided that you can't use trademark law to keep someone form making compatable products, or, for that matter, any purpose other than actual legitimate trademark protection.

    if you did that you would not be sued for copyright infringement, yoiu would be sued for breach of contract. if you licensed oracle it's not going to be click-thru poser contracts. there will be genuine ink and paper signatures and genuine lawyers if you get busted cracking it.

    Oh, really? Can Asterisk run its fingers through my hair while I rest my head in its lap, soothing me, calming me, letting me know that everything's going to be all right?

    Edison had built enough prestige on his own merits to gather a large enough group of scientists and engineers to invent more things.


    Edison had both, and so he is remembered as somewhat of a hero. He wasn't some PHB as he was a very smart man and he gathered enough people together working on advancing technology that he advanced humanity as a whole by at least a century of innovation probably more.

    wikipedia entry here
    HVDC seems to be less of a general purpose carrier as it works best point to point, but it supplements AC grids quite well by allowing power to flow between unsynchronized and differing frequency grid.

    it's not really even the computer center's fault for the most part. aside fom the time their server got owned and they blamed file sharing for bringing down the network.

    it's mostly caused by the size of the network. at a community college you have a few dozen wireless points and a few hundred lab machines.

    when administering thousands of lab machines and thousands of resnet accounts you have to have "dumber" policies because of the volume of traffic you need to manage.

    sadly that is how it works at universities.... one of the reasons aside from not getting assraped on tuition to go to a communit college.

    Binghamton university network: down all the time and terrible VPN wireless
    Schenectady County Communit College: excellent computer labs and network, never had the wireless or internet go down and labs used something similar to deep freeze to restore the state of every lab computer on reboot rather than locking out everything usefull.
