That's who I blame for their false claims of ownership for something that cannot be owned, and their mad desire control it for a near infinite period of time. We steal nothing from them. We "lend" them this monopoly of control for a very limited time. And the greedy bastards want ever more. They are the ones stealing with their bought and paid for laws. It's time for them to realize that they are not special and deserve no special privileges. They must realize that each work is nothing more than an ad or promotion for their next work. It's time to bring them back to earth and have them do their work the same way the rest of us do. The time of "artist as king" is over.
I am surprised to hear that from you. The first responder got it right. I can only add that it should apply on a planetary basis. Nobody has a right to tell us where we can and can't be. Consent comes from willful participation(voting, etc) not from mere existence.
Or lynch mobs and kangaroo courts? Try to remember that we have more people locked up in prison than they do. Your Grand Juries are pretty selective. If they were attempting to obtain justice, we might actually see some.
This is based on hundreds of years of legal precedent and tradition.
So is bullfighting. Doesn't make it right. We must assert our right to resist all authority. Because we DO have that right. "Contempt of court" is a very convenient way of locking up "undesirables", and is frequently used for the explicit purpose of whisking people away. Grand juries can be quite politically corrupt also. As is usually the case when dealing with reporters and the "war on drugs". They have no right to force me to do anything.
Not really. Those with a bad record pay higher fees. For those who drive a lot, you can use the odometer as a kind of "electric meter". Might need to use GPS tracking to decide how much is out of state. Most of the damage to the roads comes from heavy trucks. That's where most of the money should come from. They'll still using regular fuels. The price will just be passed on to the consumer anyway. Otherwise use rail for shipping. A well built road will last for many years with minimal maintenance.
Let's not forget that it is prohibition that puts the entire business into the hands of the bad guys, whoever they are. It hands over probably 20% of the world's economy over to criminals. And Elliot Ness isn't around to save us anymore.
Waddya talking about offtopic? Once we get out, we might have some money to build up the infrastructure. You don't expect the "free" market to do it, do you. Did the free market build the interstate system? Or Hoover Dam? Or put a man on the moon? We will catch up when we make it a national priority.

That was the first place I went after seeing the price of the book. This appears to be yet another ad for Amazon.
"Labor saving"?...not for the slaves toiling in the sugar caves to power those machines it isn't. Most of the people using them believe they run on some kind of pixie dust. On the whole all this "modernization" doesn't look so modern, or even very civilized. Lots of stuff is getting blown up and people getting killed to sustain it.
All your high tech archiving won't mean squat without high tech equipment to read the archives. You will be playing a constant game of "keep up" every time something new comes along and the old techniques become obsolete. Like with what seems to be our primitive phone system, but I have two 60 year old phones in perfect working condition that remain compatible. Grandpa's system may seem outdated to you, but let's see whose archives hold up better after being buried and forgotten for 2,000 years.
If you had linked to the source, instead of a weak article, you would find all the words you need. 3.0GHz My fantasy machine costs a little more than $5,100 us.

Scratch that. The time of publisher as king and gatekeeper is over.

In the land of "free speech zones" and sedition acts, the first amendment is toothless. The info must be released from a place that's out of reach.
If you find it, tell the author(s). If they don't respond? Tell the world.
But it still MUST be done anonymously to keep anybody from suppressing it, as is being done here.

Why bother staying informed and holding public officials accountable when the new season of survivor starts soon?
Well, right there you nailed it. It really does boil down to us. And ultimately the same goes for the Chinese.
...societal attempts at obtaining justice?...

Looks like a great opportunity to sell those itty-bitty "spy" cameras. If that's what they want, that's what they'll get.
Bush didn't start the current wave of neoconservatism.
That honor probably should go to Wilson.

...just give me a way to pay the tax for alternative fuel vehicles that's easy.
Registration fees. Tack it on the price of the plates. Insurance should be done the same way to make sure there are no uninsured drivers out there.
Will we ever see a storage medium that can move data that fast?
This means that the government isn't taking them up, who ever was infringed apon or represent those entities are.
But the Government gave them the WMDs to do it.
BTW What's this "Hate America First" attitude" you're talking about?
take a piss test.

Speed kills!
100 years, eh? Look at the bright side. We should be out of Iraq by then.

And in a few generations they will look like complete gibberish. While the film I can see with the naked eye.
Shellac 78's appear to be the best archival format.
You can bet on it.Actually glass would be better. And film is still best for video. Find a single hard drive that will be usable in 50-60 years.
