Without looking it up, name 5 other companies besides haliburton and bechtel big enough to deal with iraq in a timely fashion. You won't be able to. In the endt, those two were really the only ones big enough and with enough resources not being used to immediately start. Given that, and also given that haliburton et al. would never have started work in iraq just to be relegated to a bidding war with other companies afterwards, and while it sucks royally, they were the only ones on hand to do the job. *shrugs* Do you really think the graft would have been any different with several relatively smaller companies working there? I doubt it. At least not in the bechtel area of things.
He makes it clear: It is contrary to the license, most users aren't asking for it, and Microsoft, a commercial software company, has made a business decision to require users to upgrade to the full version for this functionality. Two of those are utterly irrelevant to something's legality. The third is debatable on two fronts, both on whether he actually violated said clause, and off the top of my head I can think of one or two arguments that say he didn't, and, perhaps more important in the long run, whether EULAs are actually fully binding contracts. They could be, but given that there hasn't been a supreme court ruling on the issue, it's far from set in stone.
You could make a DRM system work, but you would have to completely black box the media and player, and booby-trap it so when the case was cracked it would fry the DRM components. Even then it could theorectically still be done. But with an industry-wide standard this CANNOT be done. And therefore truly effective DRM will not be possible for a very long time, if ever.
And trial goes to jury and if that's the main point their case rests on any half-way decent lawyer will have the jury telling the DA to fuck off. For that matter, I'm relatively sure you could set up multiple containers, which means you could give him a second 'false' password.
This is why you set up a double layer truecrypt system with the first password unlocking your unsecure files. They have no evidence that there's a second password and so would have no evidence for said OoJ charges.
It sounds better than MP3 if using a high end sound system. Even with $500 eShure headphones it would be hard to tell the difference given the iPods output.
When was the last time christian extremists did something because their religion said so? The last I can think of were the abortion clinic bombings, which haven't happened anytime lately. Cause really, I'd like to know. Not to mention the assumption that the above poster was any particular flavor of christian.
Modern american taste in beer can be laid directly at the feet of the near-beers produced during the prohibition. It was thus that america got used to the taste of cat-piss. Luckily specialty brewery beers are slowly gaining in popularity, and will hopefully eclipse the love-in-a-small-boat beers as time goes by.
Really? And what part of that statement is false exactly? Essentially it's the same damned thing that happens to various neighborhoods when different income-classed people move in. Just on a larger nationwide scale and culturally based.
Actually, macro-evolution is not a fact at all. You bio teacher obviously wasn't a very good scientist. Now, micro-evolution is indeed fact. But that wasn't what your teacher was talking about, now was it? Now, given strict recorded observation so far, it's a pretty high probability that macro-evolution is the cause. That IS fact. Although given the nature of species classification and some other issues, the particulars are probably all screwed to hell but it's stiill the safest bet.
The reason why is quite simple. It's the idea that there is someone "below them" so they can say they are better than someone else. Look at the stratification of Haute Couture society for an example of the same idea. Or the way different "classes" of servants treat each other in any of the classics.
They teach it. Mind you, what they don't teach is that George Washington ordered various iroquois villages burned to the ground and inhabitants slaughtered to teach them not to interfere in the war. Tactically a sound decision.

Yes, because testing missles is REALLY going to convince us NOT to build said shield.

Yes, because defending yourself isn't a positive thing at all. Sooo, have you put "No Guns Here" signs outside your house yet?
Apparently Mexico, Russia, Estonia, South Africa, and Zimbabwe no longer qualify as countries
Actually, if you toss a modicum of salt in the water, you can continue drinking it.
Really the headline should read: Just another day of corruption in Illinois politics, move along.
That's simply because as more and more forms of entertainment avail themselves, the percentage for the old will tend to shrink.

Well, that and the fact that even pro-anthropogenic global warming scientists admit that Kyoto wouldn't accomplish shit.

Because it's hard to play bait and switch when you're buying a computer game?
A great many of the compusa stores are closing/closed. That's why I got the latest version of evercrack 2 for $10.
FFXIII will be several main games. A "good" storyline, and a "bad" storyline. Sword-boy is the lead for the "bad" storyline.
Eh, you'll get spurts of sales for MGS4 and GT5 as well.

You're right. Instead it teaches that all beliefs and cultures are EQUAL, which is almost worse.
