That article does not seem to touch on optus' recording and streaming free to air tv. Do you nave any other info that does indicate that they wil also be legal changes to roll back betamax? By the way, I agree with you about the situation here. This is a simple contact dispute between AFL and telstra. The AFL sold telstra something they did not possess - an exclusive right to stream football video to mobile devices. The government is not involved in that and that is how it should stay.
Yahoo was never a search engine. The were one of the "hand made index" school. When that idea proved unworkable, they started adding other's real search engine results to their indexed entries.
As soon as Apple agrees to a patent swap agreement with Google. Yes, actual invention patents, for rounded-rectangle-in-black patents, but Google is only interested in competing.
Teslas are also designed to avoid deep discharge: read the article! You would have to discharge it and then leave it parked for months to damage enough cells of the battery, but that would be yoru fault.
Surely, if Proview is established as the owner of the trademark within China, then the iPads being produced in China by Foxcon are counterfeit items. Could that be the basis for an injunction banning the export of these items?
That would be an excessively heavy hammer to bash an enormous settlement out of Apple.
I agree fully with the between-the-lines message here: like Big Content, the bricks-and-mortar-store's business model is finished. They need a new one. I can see two: One is that the manufactures should start paying B&M stores to market their products. It already happens in supermarkets: Coke pays supermarkets huge amounts to get those end-of-isle promotion spots, and the same happens on the ordinary shelves: If you don't pay, you'll end up with 6 inches near the ceiling or by your feet. Those 12 feet of John West Tuna cans you see at eye level? John West paid for that. Quite a bit, too.
The second is travelling road-shows. Outside of major cities, we will have Samsung or Hewlett Packard sending out a fitted-out semi with displays, listening rooms, and well-clued-up salespersons, all set up to allow customers to touch and see their products. They'll have a headline act like a huge 3D screen showing a recent release film or something - flavour of the circus here - and all ready to take your order with fast shipping if something takes your fancy, or give you a mouse mat with their online store's address.
Will B&M adapt, or try to stop the world instead? Only one of those options will work, and it doesn't involve 'earth-moving equipment'.
Whenever they are posting HTML, which, like a sane programming language, ignores extra whitespace. Click that 'Options' button, and change the "Post Mode" to "Plain old text". And Enjoy.
And as to why HTML is the default - well, this is a techie's site, and techies would get really annoyed by their html codes showing up if they forget to log in, or having to use (gag) BBCode, or (Double Gag) a javascript WYSI(almost, but not quite, entirely unlike)WYG editor.
The sun puts in 1.3kw per square meter. Or, if you prefer, 1.3 Gw per square km. It's hard to compete with that type of energy input. Water is a greenhouse has, certainly. But the amount of water is dependant on the temperature. If there is too much water in the atmosphere, it rains. Yes, other gases like NOX, ozone and methane are also a concern, but their volumes are low, and they are short-lived. We are pumping huge volumes of CO2 into the atmosphere, and the plans ability to remove out is, well, fairly constant. Lastly, recall this. It's not that we noticed the earth warming and thought greenhouse. We knew the physics said that, if we pumped lots of extra CO2 into the air, it would get hotter. That's what we then did, and, lo, it went and got hotter. Normally, that would be considered proof positive!
As well, all contestants should reveal all techniques they intend to use a part of their application. All these reports would be provided to the vendors after the competition.
But he can, if he has the talent, do a pretty good rough draft. Good enough to get some attention, and funding for polishing and render farm time for a full quality 'print'. If he has the creative bits down, there is plenty of entertainment value in watching the rough draft.
As long as this isn't all shut down because you need to go back to the 19th century for music that isn't copyrighted out of anyone-but-big-content's reach, and YouTube hasn't been shut down.
This democratising of computing ability makes content creation within the ability of anyone with the (extreme) talent. This explosion of content and weakening of the grip of big media is what is being fought.
And it will only get cheaper. No wonder they are fighting it. Ironic that they are using a provision that was originally designed to encourage creation!
I am wondering more and more whether the concept of copyright is suitable these days.
Hmm. I make a dumb post, it gets modded up once. I make a post that corrects my dumb post, and it gets modded +5. Just how does one LOSE karma around here?
Having done the most basic of research, I have found out that GNUpg short collisions are everyday events. Which makes me wonder what the point of the article was.....
8 hex digits means 8*4= 32 bits. It has taken until now to produce a single collision in something with a 32 bit key? Wow, that's great!
And even now, it has been done by tweaking two different versions.
So, yes, it's probably time to use a larger short representation. Maybe go to base-32 or -64 instead of base 16. But the protocol is nothing short of amazing.
Try explaining to your average consumer just how you find exactly which bulb has failed. Many of these things use globes in series, for those who do not know.
Not having this 'feature' may be a win for HTC. I find it really annoying when I touch a date and have my phone set itself up to dial '2011'. It also doesn't work, because when I try to use this feature, it only recognizes part of the number : usually just the '1800' of '1300' part, which is completely useless.
If you place it on a site, marked as "public", you may be seen to have authorized its reproduction. This is the case here.
And, of course, a journalist has a range of 'fair use' rights that may allow them to use a copyrighted picture. This may be the case in a future case where a picture posted to a private page may be used. ACMA will deal with such a case if an when it comes up.
The ACMA was begrudgingly unable to guarantee that users marking content as “private” on a social network could be safe guarded from broadcasters and publishers making it public, at least under the industry code of practice.
“The ACMA made it clear that while it considers the use of privacy settings an important consideration when assessing material obtained from social networking sites, the actual settings are not determinative,” the regulator noted.
Instead, the regulator will determine matters taken before it on a case-by-case basis.
“In each case, the ACMA will assess a licensee’s compliance with its privacy code obligations having regard to the specific circumstances of the broadcast.”
And that is interesting. They are stating that a private tag is not absolute. Things such as 'in the public interest' would come into play. The 'FoaF posted it public' issue would also come into play, where a journalist may not know that the original source of the image wanted it to be kept private.
It seems to be an extension of that "web site EULA != law" distinction that we sure want courts and legislatures to remember. And, of course, one person may post a picture 'private', but nothing is physically stopping one of those friends of friends from copying it and posting it public. Sure, a journalist should do due diligence to make sure this hasn't happened, but it's hard to see how they could detect it - after all, the original is 'private', so how would they know?
A lot of this case is claiming that MS told Wordperfect "This is the interface to use", but then went and cut the interface when releasing '95. Wordperfect had done alot of work on that interface, which had to be scrapped.
Maybe AmiPro had missed (or ignored) the memo, and escaped the 'trap'.

How about this: the $40K has been made up from whole cloth by a blogger we already know is ignorant of the facts surrounding electric cars.

Correction: cfit is no longer the leading cause. Terrain warning systems make then almost impossible, which is the point of this article.
You've obviously never been to australia. Hint - it's very big.

The cheezburger network would not be using the $8 bare-bones registration. They're annual value to GD would be way more than $8,000.
