Exactly. Those of us who own and *use* SUVs can generally afford the gas anyway. Sure, it's another bite. But is it anymore obscene than the price of movie tickets? Two or three lattes a day? Cable TV? Actually, with digital TV mandated next year, cable TV is more and more of a rip off and excess expenditure than $9 a gallon gas.
While SUV sales may flatten out or even drop, those of us that own them will not stop driving them.
And, when push comes to shove on the highway, we will survive while the Civic drive bites the dust. Too many hot rod kids out there driving like assholes. I plan to walk away from the head-on.
Reiser's hubris has sentenced him to what will almost certainly be more minimum 25 (or 15 if he gives up the body) than the 11 year sentenced that he was offered before trial. And of course as a murder, he deserves it.
The guy really sounds mentally unstable. Granted none of us like what he stands for, but beyond that, he really seems to have some issues other than having a tight sphincter. Maybe they should direct him to get professional help.[blockquote]Before walking out of the courtroom, Thompson filed what he called "Thompson's Formal Objection to June 4 Sanctions hearing. In the documented, 4,500-word objection, Thompson questioned Tunis' ability to sit on his hearing, calling her incompetent and arrogant and threatening to have her removed from office "in the days and weeks ahead." He also went on to call the people run The Florida Bar fascists and denied that he was involved some sort of "petty culture war."[/blockquote]
Excellent. You've made the parent's point. But cry as much as you want, there will always be an implied incestuous relationship between Wikia and Wikipedia.
Given China's propensity to spy on its own citizens and foreigners as well, one wonders what back-door document stealing code snips are buried deep within this OO fork...
"Our backups mitigated the serious breach to a minor inconvenience"
both totally fuck up your civil action.
"How can a minor inconvenience be worth $50 million?
Maybe your little blog or game site doesn't suffer much from being off-line for a day or a week. Being offline for 24 hours is not a "minor inconvenience" for a big on-line only business.
Did you read what he wrote? In the real world, people have defense lawyers. They will use anything they can to destroy your case against their client. Even something that seemed innocuous at the time.
Yes, I *did* read what you wrote. It doesn't change *anything*. There is nothing for the "defense lawyers" to "use" in what R3 has said since they have only publicized "the facts" that would come out in discovery anyway.
So fucking what is MediaSentry's lawyers know G3 thinks they are garbage and have said so. Who cares, a judge? I think a judge would be more interested in these things called "facts" which remain unchanged by discussing them in public.
The most important thing in legal matters is that you don't discuss a damned thing without talking to your lawyer first.
A useful anecdote when you are accused of a crime. But Revision3 isn't being accused of a crime, they are the victim. They have no liability by discussing the issue because they have committed no crime and it can not change the legality of MediaDefender's behavior.
Revision 3 should have just sued, and sued BIG. By discussing it so glibly, and in such detail, on their blog they're jeopardizing their case...
How so? The facts have not changed just because they've talked about it in a blog. If it was illegal before, it's still illegal. IANAL, but I can't imagine a law that says you can't talk about it when someone commits a crime such as this against you...
Can you expand your comments on this to include a reason such a thing as you propose would be true?
Never mind the military uses, how about using them for construction purposes?
Indeed. It's pretty sad that most (or just a lot? It seems like most...) new technology comes about for "military needs". Imagen if all this effort was devoted to developing technology whose actual purpose was peaceful applications to benefit a peaceful society... The money we spend on war prevents a renaissance of humanity.
More importantly, a SnoMote is an 'expendable rover that wouldn't break a research team's bank if it were lost during an experiment,' according to the lead researcher."
So, when the battery gives out or the unit breaks down they are just going to leave these things out in the environment like garbage? Plastic and old batteries? Is this a good idea?
Even if Viacom were to win this, they would still be losing out.
Where is the first place I go to find clips of a show? Youtube. After that I head off to google in hopes of finding it somewhere else.
Remember that Google is no longer (and hasn't been for quite some time) the warm and fuzzy "do no evil" startup it originally was. Now, from a business standpoint, it is like any other multi-national. This is about money, and in the end if Google loses, they will simply pay a license fee.
The best part, in my opinion, is that they requested a jury trial. If they get that, Viacom is even more screwed.
Maybe not. That's an emotional reaction from you. The jury in a recent RIAA case ruled for the faceless record industry monster awarding them obscene amounts against some lady. Unfortunately, while most Slashdotters, other technically savvy people, and many educated folks have a very liberal view of copyrights, most Americans seem to buy into the kind of thing Viacom sells on this issue.
But I only think they did this because the wii fit is touching on the arena of exercise equipment.
Entirely correct, I think. I don't think CR is testing the Wii as a game platform, rather as excursive equipment, which is consistent with the types of things they test...
No, I really don't think CR is the right forum to test games, except maybe to discover if they start fires...
So, are some of these schoole going to become money whores and sell out their rights? It's a serious question, folks. When money is involved, you know ethics fly out the door...
