"The FCC's brief argues the court ruling would make it almost impossible to punish broadcasters that show nudity or profanity during hours when children are likely to be watching or listening."
At best we get a close approximation of something Mesoamerican peoples might have quaffed 3400 or so years ago.
At worst we get yet another interesting recipe and high-octane brew.
Where exactly is the bad?
...a Basic Stamp starter kit. Or an Arduino starter kit. Or any of the other microcontrollers out there. There is plenty of hardware available for tinkering and learning without ever needing to deal with Apple's change of direction.
...that nowhere in this article does it say who fired on these people. It could just as easily have been Haitian police, private security, or UN troops. I doubt even they know; generally when being fired upon the proper response doesn't involve stopping to ask origin or intent.
...when do we see the death penalty applied to them?
The Ford Pinto's exploding gas tank and Union Carbide's Bhopal clusterfuck are merely the first examples that come to mind of corporations exhibiting depraved indifference to human life. Had an individual done these things he/she would be facing the death penalty; why should corporations be exempt?
From the Summary: "'There's a doctrine called "fair use," which we believe to be challenged in the courts and would bar it altogether,' Mr Murdoch told the TV channel. 'But we'll take that slowly.'"
Fair use is the target here. They don't want anyone to ever be able to use any current culture without payment and approval.
...and I've been building exhibits for science museums for the past 25 years. In my experience, the following are the best in the U.S.:
Liberty Science Center, Newark, NJ Chicago Museum of Science and Industry, Chicago, IL Indianapolis Children's Museum, Indianapolis, IN Science Center of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN (don't miss the Museum of Questionable Medical Devices!) St. Louis Science Center, St. Louis, MO OMSI, Portland, OR Reuben H. Fleet Center, San Diego, CA California ScienCenter, Los Angeles, CA
And when you're in L.A., don't miss the Museum Of Jurassic Technology. Absolutely fascinating.
I've been to the UAE. The problem there is that even though they hire the best engineers in the world, the laborers building these projects typically had never seen the business end of a hammer six months before being hired.

Cricket is CDMA 1X and 1xEV-DO, not GSM. Which rules out using an iPhone.
They are Guy Fawkes sympathizers, after all...
...as in "this decision is bad how?"
"The FCC's brief argues the court ruling would make it almost impossible to punish broadcasters that show nudity or profanity during hours when children are likely to be watching or listening."
And this is bad how?
You must be loads of fun at parties.

We don't have a justice system in the U.S.
We have a legal system. The best money can buy.
An 8-bit operating system for a 2-bit country?
A squid-eating doe in a polyethylene bag is fast and bulbous. Got me?

...competition was supposed to lower prices, not raise them?
His own ex-wife has called him mentally unbalanced.
Because of course, when I want the straight, unbiased scoop on someone, I always look to their ex-spouse.
*facepalm*

Idiocy should be expensive.
Make it so.
No, no, poors. As in reverting their appearance to when they were young and poor and hungry for fame.
Very nice. Have an intelligent rebuttal, or do you simply choose to accept mindlessly whatever you're told?
Surplus profits, of course. Anything else?

I can't help but wonder if it was related to this:

Jesus, does this mean we're going to have to go through the whole SCO fiasco again on a grander scale?

What could possibly go wrong?
...but does anyone here remember/miss MicroCornucopia or The Computer Journal?
