Oh for the love of god....THAT'S THE POINT ABOUT PRIOR ART! Where the fuck have you been??? That's the point about all these patent challenges, is their prior art. If so, then the patent is invalid.
Um you don't know much about copyrights do you? Unless it has been specified in a legal contract otherwise, the artist has the following legal right.
"Then copyright law was revised in the mid-1970s, musicians, like creators of other works of art, were granted “termination rights,” which allow them to regain control of their work after 35 years, so long as they apply at least two years in advance. "
Fronting money for a song does not automatically entitle the money person to ownership of the song. something you would know if you had bothered to research the topic.
And I'm not going to argue with idiots. Saying Apple is more secure through obscurity is stupid. An OS does not have more security exploits or less security exploits because of the number of people using them. Security holes already exist in the OS, they were already present.
For OS X and Windows to be the same OS X would have to have the same type and number of exploits. OS X does not.
There are over 100,000 viruses for Windows. OS X has about 5.
Windows has more security exploits than OS X. That's a fact.
Ah the fools logic. Security exploits exist in Windows whether 1 person or a 1 million people use it. A million people using Windows did not suddenly create security holes. These holes existed before anyone used it.
Thus for OS X to be the same security risk, OS X would have to have the same type and number of security exploits as Windows.
It doesn't. Different OS. It's Unix based which is a hell of lot more secure than Windows.
"iSec's recommendation is premised on the assumption that a small percentage of employees in any large business or government organizations will be tricked into installing malicious software, no matter what platform they use"
"the Judge concludes that the drop in visitor traffic due to their seizure does not establish a substantial hardship, and therefore no reason exists to return the domain.
This line of reasoning goes directly against previous rulings in First Amendment cases. As the EFF points out, in two earlier Supreme Court decisions it was concluded that having alternatives available does not mean that freedom of speech isn’t violated.
According to the EFF, the peculiarities of the ruling don’t end there.
“As if misapplying the relevant substantive First Amendment analysis wasn’t bad enough, the court failed to even address the fatal procedural First Amendment flaws inherent in the seizure process: namely, that a mere finding of ‘probable cause’ does not and cannot justify a prior restraint. How the court believes that the seizure satisfies the First Amendment in this regard is a mystery,” they write."
"Now imagine half the population plugging cars into the gird every night that draw WAY more power than any consumer HVAC unit."
Really? Half the population charging cars is going to draw more power than half the population using A/C? Seriously? Do you have any idea how much energy a compressor uses? Do you have any idea how long it takes to cool down a house 1 degree? Do you have any idea how terribly inefficient A/C units are and how badly designed houses are for heating and cooling efficiency?
"It is concluded that atmospheric feedback diagnosis of the climate system remains an unsolved problem, due
primarily to the inability to distinguish between radiative forcing and radiative feedback in satellite radiative budget observations."
It's about cloud coverage. So it makes it harder to make accurate warming models.
But here are some fun facts. The global temperature has been rising over the past 10 years. Each summer has been hotter then the previous. There have been more droughts each year. Climate extremes (warmer summers, colder winters, harsher storms) have been increasing each year. Each climate event we have experienced has been consistent with global warming models.
So by all means bury your head in the ground and pretend food prices are not going up and electrical grid demands aren't increasing and water rationing aren't happening.
What profit? The money that universities generate do not go to any investors or ceo. There are no dividend payments? Revenues that the university generates goes back into the operations of the university.
RTFA....the article was looking at record contracts and noting how record companies are just as much "pirates" as people who pirate music.
The article pointed out that bands can sell millions of records and still make no money because all the profits go to the record company.
The article also point out that record contracts are not clear and simple. The contacts do not point out what the different fees are and how they are calculated. If it was an honest contact it would.
Think again sparky! If you pay the electric bill you KNOW the cost. Wr knew the cost was going up when we got it because we added another device that was going to use electricity. We knew that the box when "off" is not completely off and using electricity. What was not known was that Service Providers were sitting on their asses in providing energy efficient boxes!
Stop blaming the consumer/homer owner! Makes you look like a total douche bag.
"...Facebook is about to launch a mobile platform aimed squarely at working on the iPhone (and iPad). But it won’t be distributed through the App Store as a native application, it will be entirely HTML5-based and work in Safari. Why? Because it’s the one area of the device that Facebook will be able to control (or mostly control).
Facebook will never admit this, but those familiar with the project believe the intention is very clear: to use Apple’s own devices against them to break the stranglehold they have on mobile app distribution."

Case closed. You can't protect from stupid.

Clearly you haven't a clue.
Superior technology because what it's faster? Seriously?

The sad thing is they do.....and still nobody cares 3.57% of the global market is pretty sad. Hell Baidu is beating them with 4.64%

Something you would know had you attended one.
Yeah Exchange...there's no support nightmare there *eye roll*
Dude Javascript is not Java. Javacsript does not run in a virtual machine like java. Do research before posting!
The senate has the power of Filibuster. Bills that passed house died in the Senate. You would know that if you had bothered to do research.
Thanks for being a complete fucking douche bag.

But thanks for supporting corporate piracy.
Oil companies having using that line for 40 years. So when does the immediate future begin?
Microsoft has yet to specify which patent Google is infringing, Apple did.
Troll.
Show me one single court case that shows one single patent Microsoft owns is being infringed by Android. That's right, you can't.
Troll.
Porn! We limit the sale of porn to children.

Sounds like you are talking about Windows 7 and Microsoft support.
And the 7 cars I have owned of different makes a models over the past 30 years would disagree with you.

Is it clear now?
It is, the paper was meant as a PR piece for Go.
