Only on the first shot. The officer will drop the thing when the first round hits it. If he was holding it in his strong hand, he may not be able to return fire with his bruised/broken fingers.
I don't know why you got modded troll, I guess some people think their opinions are more important than facts and the Constitution. It is not law, it is a rule. Symbolic? Only in the sense that it symbolizes a truly broken government. We have two branches of the government telling the third that it can't do something, and it says it intends to ignore them both. This is grounds for impeachment. Laws do not come from the executive department, they come from the Legislature. We now have the Justice Department making up rules that infringe our rights, and the FCC, DoE, and a host of others going beyond their charters. Unfortunately, Congress gave up paying attention to the Constitution long ago and won't act in the prescribed manner.
Not even close. The right to property is inalienable - natural, self evident and universal. Copyright is granted at the whim of the government, it is strictly the construct of a legal system. A government serves its people by protecting the first right, and by granting the second. Enforcement of the latter is not something that all citizens would recognize as being in their interest, and since in most cases the infringer has only potentially deprived the victim of royalties, using the massive power of the government to prosecute is NOT in the public interest.
That "flaw" requires physical access to the iPad that falls under rule 3 - If a bad guy has unrestricted physical access to your computer, it's not your computer anymore.
Barnum coined "egress", and that was clearly deception and not entertainment. "Only" makes your statement untrue. While Barnum didn't say, "There's a sucker born every minute", he did give the people what they want, even when that meant sewing a fish and a monkey together to make a mermaid. In other words, not quite what it seems to be. I think the comparison is apt.
How appropriate the first line of the first link: "It’s October 28th in Italy and today’s the day when Andrea Rossi’s 1 MW Plant is going to be tested at his Bologna factory." It might have been a little clearer if they had used the colloquial spelling "Baloney."
One point that comes to mind is that accountants are worse (more evil) than lawyers. An accountant will calculate the cost of losing times the chances of losing and choose to settle when that product is less than the offered settlement. A lawyer will not feed a troll who isn't his client.
Your statement implies an intent that you do not have any evidence to support. How do you explain this move? Clearly they did not have to open source ALAC. Anyone who does something with this code will HAVE to comply with its license.
WMA files are converted to the format of your choice when you drag them into iTunes. Ogg Vorbis requires a QuickTime component to be loaded on your computer. There are plug-ins that handle FLAC. WMA with DRM is such a bad idea that I have no sympathy for anyone with that format. And you don't have to use iTunes. Other than those points, your post was spot on!
There are numerous programs that will convert them in batch mode into another format, including ALAC, that is compatible with your device. There is a plug-in for iTunes that will let it cope with FLAC and do the conversion when you sync the iPod. BTW, I use a Mac, but not iTunes, or QuickTime, or any of the iOS devices, and I chose ALAC two years ago when I ripped my CD collection, because decoding takes a couple percent less CPU time. My music server converts the tracks to FLAC on-the-fly for some of the clients, to MP3 for others and sends them unmodified to one. Any whining about converting is either uniformed or misinformed.
What I want to know is whether they'll be able to pay back the loan. That's an important measure in whether this was a bad idea, just as much as "creating juuuurrbs".
No, there is no measure that would suggest that it, or any other loan to private business, falls within the purview of the Government.

Don't you want an offensive clipboard rather than a defensive one?

I'll wait for version five - predictably, the AsimoV. I figure by then it will truly be autonomous.

Dead people still believe smoking doesn't cause cancer. Call George Romero!
It might be only in Android. It may be an issue on iOS, but I didn't turn up anything with a Google search.

The list would be so much shorter if they listed the honest ones.

In other news, Dewey Defeats Truman! The fat lady will be singing in ALAC.

Announced is irrelevant if changes were made before release. That phone was not released until August 2007 - well after the Apple application.
How about GSPlayer? It is a free media player for Windows Mobile v2.25 that was released August 6 2006, and it has a slide to unlock screen.
It's not a flip phone!

Not "sit on their hands" - bumble incompetently and conspicuously. You can't dodge a bullet that is never fired.
The corners aren't rounded, I think the magazines might have a slim chance.
A "secret interpretation" does indeed give us a basis for general expectations. Expect tyranny.
