?? What, are you still using a one button mouse? That would occupy both hands. How do you... uh... oh nevermind. I suppose where there's a will, there's a way.
Neither's perfect, but I think either will result in a return to sanity and pragmatism...
You have my personal guarantee that it won't. I'm not saying they won't put a better face on it, however the changes will be nil. All we can do is to celebrate to 40th anniversary of the great decline if and when any of the front runners win.
That would mean it was unintentional. They were revealed in a press release. Poorly disguised maybe, but it was a press release. And my advice is to go with XP or the business edition. Works pretty good with less fluff.
Otherwise, how else would it have been able to cope with the expansion of the airframe during flight?
Cables and/or push-rods are connected to hydraulic servos which worked the flight controls themselves, just like every Boeing airliner(and Douglas DC-10 and Lockhedd L-1011) from the 747 up through the 767. The 727 used hydraulics for the elevator and rudder. Ailerons were mechanical. The only "fly-by-wire" aspect of them was the autopilot and instruments. And other aircraft, like the 707 and 737, had mechanical controls with hydraulic boost(rudder only on both for the yaw damper), and had a very fancy, but purely mechanical system of bell cranks to maintain proper cable tension to deal with it.
If you had Wal-Mart's clout, you can bet it sure would work out very well for you. I happen to think that Wal-Mart has too much clout in that a supplier could be put into bankruptcy because it depends on Wal-Mart as a client too heavily.
the importance of having a human on board watching over the machinery. If this was a pilotless drone, it surely would have crashed, killing all on board.
If something like this happens only once every 12 years, instead of engines and propellers coming off every couple of months like on the DC-4s and Connies, then I should accept the fact that these new fangled machines are pretty damn good. But note that the triple 7 has had some incidences with its electrical systems that didn't make the papers. I believe only the Concorde has a better record, and that without fly-by-wire, but at the very high cost of very vigilant maintenance requirements.
Is there anybody who doesn't look good compared to Bush Jr.?
Cheney - Yeah, I know, not president, but probably the brain. The people that voted for them - for thinking only of themselves. The front runners - who will carry on the same policies, but look much more competent and will be able to put a much better spin on the degradation. Satan, maybe
I guess you didn't notice that little part where I said you would only get a small piece, or maybe a chapter. And you might be waiting a while for me to release any of it until I get enough buyers. I could play that by ear.
I can sell it 1000 times for $1 and make a profit.
I wouldn't know how if everybody else is giving it away. Eh...nevermind. Same argument, different person.
A copyright of 50 years on a book or musical composition doesn't seem outrageous to me.
I have confidence that a better price could be arranged before anything is released. Studio musicians could charge by the hour, and live performances can pay quite well. A snippet of a book can be released leaving the reader craving for more if it's a good book. Make 'em pay for each subsequent snippet, or chapter if you wish. Control of distribution is not necessary. In fact it is detrimental in that it reduces the size of your audience. Commercial content will sell just fine. That it might cease to be a multi billion dollar industry with all its undue political influence isn't necessarily a bad thing. The individual creators will do well without it. And they will have control of what is released, and at what price, not their publisher. And, if they prefer not to handle all the daily business, they can hire a manager to make their deals for them for a reasonable price. Copyright gives all the power to the distributor, in the same way the railroad monopolies screwed over the farmers who depend on them to get their product to market. This, to me, is its purpose.
It also doesn't matter when all the front runners are clones of each other. And apparently massmedia will have almost as much influence on the election as the electoral college. The whole thing has become a charade.
The ability to make and sell copies of an entire work is just as important...
If I could apply those rules to washing dishes or replacing a light bulb, I would agree. But copies don't clean dishes or fix the lights. There is no reason to give anybody else such special privileges. You should profit from the amount of work you do, the way I do. If somebody wants more of your work, you should perform the work. The notion of a playing a recording as a performance is absurd. Your performance was making the recording, and that's what you should be paid for. Once you perform said work and get paid for it, that's it. You're not performing the reproduction (unless you're performing live to an audience). The playback device is. You can claim you did the work, but you don't own it. It belongs to the person who possesses it. You should not be permitted to control what happens to it afterward.

Then let's claim eminent domain. We can have the property condemned as a public hazard... oh, wait...maybe we should save that for windows :-)
That law has been there for almost 300 years.

How I wish we had a pirate party.... or at least RMS as a senator...
All you have to do is get 51% of the voters to write him in. Time to start a political selective service program.

I wouldn't be so sure; it's been a pretty steady decline over the last half century and it might just continue like that.
If ANY of the current front runners win the election, you can bet on it.
Even a loser like Bush Sr. looks pretty good compared to his son.
This guy is making Nixon look good. The spirit of Rosemary Woods lives on.

...how much money can the RIAA be held accountable for?
How about (puts pinky to lips) a billion dollars for every song they sued for?
...the fluidity of language...
And that begs the the question, what kind of wessel would you store it in?
If I buy your book at $5...

GASP!!
But he's got a new hat... and that face looks so familiar
...what with the stalwart reputation for standing up for their customers' civil rights in the face of NSA and FBI threats.
You can always buy a Nokia...

Fuck Ford. I'm buying Japanese next time.
Yeah! Get a Mazda
...I imagine "non-cloned" meats will be labeled as such...
Some states have tried to prohibit such labeling.
Just remember this. It's either them or us
