Not in the US. The courts are taxpayer funded. Criminal courts are entirely taxpayer funded. A "normal" copyright infringement case, is a civil case.
Yes, I'm aware of this. And the reason is an incentive to create, not some moral reasoning. In your country, not in mine.
I was directly responding to your 2-second clip comment, which you yourself point out is a perfectly legal use. Depends what you do with those 2 seconds. If it a "sample" of a song, and you use it as background rhythm for a new song, then it is an infringement.
As it should be, since it does nothing to the commercial value of the original work. And the "commercial value of the original work" has absolutely nothing to do with the topic.
And who pays for these courts? The one who loses the case.
Anyone who uses IP to make a living is basically getting a huge-ass subsidy from the government So is everyone who owns land and uses it to build a house on top of it to rent it to poor blokes who are to poor to own such lands themselves and live in their own house.
Or so is everyone who owns some land and farms it and lives from the fruits he farms.
Or so is everyone who rented some land from the government and has a exploiting/mining license and mines some resources.
IP rights got introduced a few hundred years ago, when people realized that "stuff in your mind" has/should have the same value as tangible goods. And right so in my opinion.
Now we have the internet and lots of IP is digital and just because it is more easy to copy you demand less protection?
At the times of Gutenberg there was at least still real labour involved to copy something...
and they will be constantly shifting the blame There is not much blame to shift when an automatic car hits a human... regardless what kind of lawyers you have.
Simple camera based self driving cars have no more problems like a human has. On top of that you can have plenty of sensors that are beyond human capabilities.
And: self driving cars are not driven by an AI, for fuck sake. Stop calling it an AI if you have no clue what AI is or what a self driving car does.
Anyway, I wonder why american companies don't buy european tech instead of attempting to reinvent the "self driving wheel". We have self driving cars since 15 years. And since minimum 10 years we have fleets of self driving car roaming majour european cities.
In my town we have self driving cars of all majour brands running every day... since a decade or longer. No accident so far.
If you are ignorant enough to not know about the general benefits of genetically engendered strains then you certainly do not know anything useful about the subject That was not the subject:D And most GMOs have no benefit.
And if you're not that ignorant then you're just a liar. On what base do you claim that, as you obviously have no clue about GMOs you don't qualify to decide if I have no idea either or if I'm lying...
Actually I wonder: about what would I be lying? I'm neither an GMO nor an anti GMO activist, idiot.
Sorry, besides for your 'ground station point' the rest is wrong.
3 satellites give you 3 intersecting spheres in 3D space. That includes altitude.
Yes, that will be an approximation, of about 1 meter, depending where you are and if you have adjusted your GPS accordingly (e.g. around the Finnish coast, unadjusted GPS is easy 30m off).
What is the probability of the true ground position being inside that triangle ? 12.5% - 1 in 8. That is complete nonsense.
Being inaccurate has nothing to do with probabilities.
I guess when you are doing a manual compass based bearing, you believe as well that 3 bearings increase the "probability" of your position versus two bearings, while it actually only makes the spot you are probably inside bigger and more fuzzy.
Why would it be debt if you store one barrel of oil for each coin?
I just don't see how bitcoin is even maintaining it's current price because if you can't buy anything with it then what use is it? Hae? That is a silly statement/question. You can nearly buy everything you want with bitcoin.
When people started to tell me about "christian god" it was clear to me it was a phantasy.
When Europe (and south america) got Christianized most converts were adults.
The point is some people think/believe there are super natural beings. And they simply switch from the inferiour one to the superiour one.
And then again, most kids understand quite perfectly that the cartoon character dropping down into a ravine should be dead instead of plugging a 10 yard deep hole fitting his outer frame.
No idea about outer space invaders, but for me as a 6 year old it was pretty clear that vampires are only "fictional characters".

If all the data, as you requested, would be public, of course it would contain trade secrets.
What has that to do with private or public roads?
We have no "learning" self driving cars.
The algorithms are hardcoded.
Why don't you google for goods and services that accept bitcoin?
Hu?
Instead of playing stupid ...
And who pays for these courts?
The one who loses the case.

At the times of Gutenberg there was at least still real labour involved to copy something ...
Are you an idiot or what?
Obviously you can spent your bitcoins only at places that accept bitcoin ...
Why waste your time to make such a retarded post?
Ah, my fault perhaps. Probably I did not read correctly :D
A modern GPU is the size of a small book and draws some 100W of power.
More like 60 years ago, seems you do not read much Stanislaw Lem.
It can also do basic AI tasks, such as sorting the data it's given. ...
Ah ha
Self driving cars are not run by "learning" AIs or ANNs ...
and they will be constantly shifting the blame ... regardless what kind of lawyers you have.
There is not much blame to shift when an automatic car hits a human
There is no self driving car I'm aware of that uses an ANN ... for what exactly do you think that would be useful?
So, you are against privacy laws for FB etc. ?
But you are for giving up trade secrets of companies?
And how many pedestrians died being overrun by horse drawn carriages, with no flag waving man in front?
That is nonsense,

My governmet is not spending any time or money to protect X's work.
X has himself to go to court to protect his work or demand compensations ...
Regarding comparing two songs in a video and only sampling a few seconds: that is completely legal.
So: no idea what your point is.

The losses of the Aral sea have noting to do with "climate change".
Why are you so stupid?
What has communism/socialism to do with a totalitorian regime forcing the destruction of a river for cotton plantages?
People tend to "believe" what they "learned" first.
So if your parents had told you at age of 4 that the earth is flat, you would be convinced, too, that the earth is flat.
No idea why the question if the earth is flat or not is relevant on /. since a year so much.
That is an extremely simplified view.

Why should it be "fair use" to use some others work for 2 seconds in your own "commercial use"?
