I did not say that removing your memory destroyed that memory, merely that it would be taken from you. Would it make a difference to you if a copy was made prior to your drives being erased? I am saying that pirating software is creating a copy without payment or the effort required to create that piece of software. If the copy has no value then the pirated copy would not be made.
If your employer decided not to pay you for your work last week, the money would be in their pocket instead of yours, no money actually disappeared, but the money is clearly not where it belongs. In addition since you presumably did something for the company, wealth was actually generated. You would have us believe that you would have no issue with that?
Your arguments amount to nothing more than naysaying. Occam's razor favors the simplistic view, and in the absence of evidence to the contrary (which you have not presented) should be accepted. The critical flaw in your line of thinking is that you only see value in money and material property. Freedom and ideas also have value. You wouldn't mind if I removed from your brain the memories of your first love and your best vacation, would you? You wouldn't mind if someone erased your hard drives? After all, according to your argument, those result in "no detectable loss of money or property anywhere".
That, and the fact that "convenience voting" (AKA absentee ballots) tends to further reinforce "picking the least bad of the remainder". The 2010 Maine gubernatorial election with five candidates might have gone to an Independent if those voters had realized that the Democratic candidate had no chance. The irony is that it was Democrats, not Independents who threw their votes away.
In the Nixon-Kennedy debate, radio listeners said Nixon won, television viewers said it was Kennedy. So the question is should we listen to debates or watch them?
If Harvard grad is so important to you, I suppose you voted for George W. Bush?
It is very easy to cite specific issues to demonize one party:
One party wants to legalize and promote the killing of unborn babies.
One party passed legislation that they had not read and called it a health care "plan".
One party thinks it is more important to protest the removal of a mural in Maine than representing their constituents. Otherwise how can one explain a drop of that party from 62% to 48% in the House and 57% to 40% in the Senate in 2010? Governor LePage is a buffoon, but the alternative was NOT the Democrat who got 19% of the vote, it was an Independent who got 2% less than LePage and might well have won if our electoral procedures did not favor the two dominant parties.
If you think that the only alternative to Republicans are Democrats then you are part of the problem, not part of the solution.
Pilot error, yes, but the throttles do not indicate their settings on an Airbus except when manually set. The handles can say 90%, but if they will be at the last setting that the autopilot used when it disengaged. This is a counterintuitive design that does not properly consider human interface. Standard procedure for loss of airspeed indicators is to set the control surfaces, angle of attack and throttle to values that will keep the aircraft flying safely. One theory is that the crew made the mistake of reading, rather than setting the throttle.
It was two cars, not one. TG claimed that "the motor's overheating and I've lost power" and the other's "brakes had broken" while it was being charged. At about 6:40 in this YouTube link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DfHyGD7_pM It does appear that they misrepresented the issue since they would have been able to continue once the motor cooled down. Personally,I doubt that too many people would be put off by the overall review which exhibits bias against electric cars in general.
I don't see much code being reused on quality apps, but it should lead to lots of mediocre games. Each game will work best on the platform targeted by the developer, and the quality of the ported versions will vary widely, but online tutorials are unlikely to have a positive effect.
Briar Group was ordered to comply with the Data Law, but they were NOT fined under that law which went into effect after the data breach was eliminated. They were fined for violation of Title XV,Chapter93A
SBC bought AT&T and assumed that name in 2005 and bought Bel South in 2006. I lived in Texas when SBC came into existence in 1983. I lived in California when SBC took over Pac Bell in 1997. I lived in Illinois when SBC took over Ameritech in 1999. I will vouch for the toxic nature of SBC, the asshattery began long before the acquisition of BellSouth. In each case costs jumped significantly and service declined markedly. It is the formerly SBC management in Dallas that is responsible for what you incorrectly attribute to BellSouth.
Reactionary is the correct term for what he described as regressive, and he did not make them up. They do not wish to make things worse, but they do wish to undue certain aspects of "progress" Many fundamentalists regardless of name of their god are reactionary. Back to nature groups, survivalists, Amish, Hutterites, Mennonites, a lot of Mormons, America First groups are all reactionary to varying degrees.
No one will ever need more than 640 KB or 10 Gb/s... until they have it, figure out how to use it, figure out how to use it up, and how to upgrade to the next thing.
Hubs will need to be replaced every time the speed gets bumped, Your keyboard is useless as a hub for USB 3.0. Also USB requires CPU cycles. With daisy chains, you only need to shift the slow devices to the end of the chain.
The Legislature, led by the Senate isn't done. Senate President Michael Waddoups said Monday, "We’re not going to repeal it until we have something to replace it with.” This is just intermission, the fat lady hasn't sung.

If Google wished to do something untrustworthy with Gmail, Java is the least of your worries.
It is apparent you have never driven flat out on a track. Engines, brakes, tires, and transmissions overheat on normal cars during speed tests.
A "vast conspiracy," right wing or otherwise, is known as a political party.

We're talking Google, Microsoft and Apple here, not Sony.

Non profits should have under 50M revenue or do not compete so they couldn't be sued. They don't need to do anything.
