Additionally, it is trivial to forge email headers. There are only two ways to verify email headers: matching them up with the headers of emails at the other end of the correspondence or by comparing them to server logs, neither of which is likely to exist any longer. With or without header information, the email cannot be verified at this point anyway.
The RIAs and MPAs of the world don't equate this to bootlegging, they equate it to theft. In the offline world, at least in the US, both seller and purchaser of stolen goods are criminals.
You're going to take a picture of the picture on your PC monitor with your phone, then you're going to drive to an internet cafe to put the picture in an email (presumably) to yourself, then drive back home again to save it?
If this is what it would take for you to defeat this, then I'd say the joke's on you.
I picked up a low-end kindle at a discounted price (~$40) that I'm sure represented a loss for Amazon, and I don't buy any DRM'd books for it, so they're not recouping that loss from me. This gives me a gratifying feeling that I've successfully fought back against "the Man."
You lost as soon as you bought the Kindle. You helped them recover some of the cost of manufacture instead of letting them lose it all on an unsold device.
The only way to fight "the Man" is to not buy the man's garbage and get other people to do the same.
Which is not for everyone, nor should you have to do this.
So don't buy it. You're simply stupid if you buy something that does what you don't want it to do. Until the majority stops opening their wallets, this crap isn't going to stop.
Except it doesn't teach you anything and ignores the fact that zip ties are used far more than handcuffs for restrainng people these days. It's just another dumb video of timothy wanking around and the editors thinking this stupid shit will somehow stem the tide of user loss.
Zip ties use the same principle as handcuffs and a shim is equally as effective. If you're going to bash Timothy, you should at least try not to look like an idiot.
Firefox has better memory management than any other popular browser. If you aren't seeing that, then you aren't on the latest Firefox version or you've got some horribly leaky add-ons installed. (The add-on problem is fixed in Firefox 15 Beta and will be available in 6 weeks.)
Considering Firefox is one of the most horribly leaky add-ons anyone could install into Windows, I guess you're right.
I only keep Firefox installed anymore to remind me of why I'm using Chrome. When Chrome starts acting up, I fire up Firefox and visit a couple websites just to refresh my memory.
10% cost saving which you will likely need to help your new potential employees fight their non-compete contracts with the employer that you just poached them from. And possibly to fight your own lawsuit for poaching them in the first place.
Outsourcing firms are typically fully aware of the possibility of losing their mostly underpaid workforce to their clients. Most have non-competes in place for this very reason.
What would the USA look like today if Ben Franklin, George Washington, Patrick Henry, Thomas Jefferson, Sam Adams, etc., etc. had moved somewhere else? "Be the change you want to see."
What would the USA look like today if the first colonists had never packed up and left somewhere else to move here? Works both ways.
We can't get computers to drive autonomously on earth, but we can program computers to automatically dock with the space station, that tells me it's EASIER than driving.
Your analogy immediately took a nosedive when you compared driving a car with parking a spacecraft. Computers are already somewhat decent at parking cars. However, if a computer had to navigate a spacecraft safely through a congested orbit of spacecraft piloted by humans it would likely be just as bad as it would be driving a car.
Put simply, you've overlooked the reason computers can't drive cars autonomously - it's impossible to predict with 100% certainty what the humans driving around the computer will do.
Anyone who has had a little experience with a small company can already imagine the horrors of having to deal with a specific annoying support rep every fucking time they call for help.
Compare the results of a crash with someone who has used those comforting seatbelts to the results where no seatbelt was used. I think you'll agree that they provide a lot of protection. Most people would say they aren't especially comfortable; people only use them because they don't want to get a ticket.

My daily commute is less than 2 miles - that would last me a week! Count me in!!!

I just hope that Microsoft didn't learn anything from HP's blunder and goes on to fail and sell the remaining stocks at $99-$199 in a firesale.
...For example: You can't travel to Europe for free, just to see if you're going to like it...
Analogy fail. You absolutely can travel to Europe, or almost anywhere for that matter, for free .
Just to be clear...

It seems so. I've also heard rumors of Mr. Wen joining the firm.

I don't think I've ever been on a bus where the passengers complained to the driver that he or she wasn't driving fast enough.
You haven't ridden the bus enough.

It's because ASNs do not identify providers, they identify networks. ISPs may own or control any number of individual networks. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_System_(Internet)
Also, keep in mind that most large ISPs have numerous ASNs. Comcast, for example, has somewhere around 50.
That's not as interesting as browser/OS stats would be.

Sometimes it is a good idea to do a little more research before whining...

It was also obviously written by someone who knows nothing about Comcast - the Xfinity app does nothing if you're not a Comcast subscriber...
Not true. When you turn the car off, you lose vacuum, which includes power brakes, and ABS whenever the ignition is defeated.
God forbid anyone actually use an emergency brake for anything other than drifting...

If they don't believe in ANY medical treatment for anything, I suspect they may not exactly be the patients that are getting "fired".
