Does iTunes force you into using a media format that only iTunes properly supports, with patents forcing people to purchase the iTunes encryptor and iTunes playback modules?
No?
Then get to the back of the bus, your arguement falls flat.
Apophis, also called Apep, is the egyptian worldsnake, desiring to consume the sun and destroy all life. It was fought each day by the god Set, to protect the sun god Ra, as he made his way through the underworld. But yet, despite being killed every day, it continually ressurects to threaten again the next day.
I mean, nobody can possibly use anonymizing services, proxy servers, filters, or encryption to circumvent such things. And even if they could, such systems are completely unheard of outside of a small club.
Oh, you want to know the clubs name? Why, it's name is EVERYBODY! We meet at the bar!
As a kid, every map I saw showed this cross-street running between two streets. I never saw that street. Months and months of searching, never found it. Turned out that the mapmakers had all used a city powerlines map to reference where the streets were, and yes, there was a small run of powerlines through a wooded section between these two streets.
Actually, by the DMCA (and the lawyers are in the US, I might note) one can claim that by having usurped the domain name and trademark, a reasonable assumption can be made that copyright also was infringed upon, to which the only solution would be a full source code release of every piece of their software to the public documentation of a court exhibit.
First they work to strengthen copyright laws to the point that they make capital murder seem less a crime, THEN they help a group which targets a GPL piece of software, and as we all know, the GPL utilizes the full strength of Copyright for it's own power... They are about to reap what they have sown.
If this is held up through appeals, will radically change the very nature of lawsuits, and not necessarily for the better. Imagine the little record label suing Sony for re-listing their catelog without permission, and Sony simply out-spends them, then forces them out of business by having them pay for the legal costs?
with a general number crunching session... they're in for a world of hurt. If I'm right, their performance is going to take a hit from this bus in most apps.
Depends on the Photographer, but in most cases it's because they're not work-for-hire, but artists providing a service. That being said, even handed the RAW pictures is no guarantee of quality prints.
I used to work for a photo lab. We got in every day dozens of parents, just like you, who had purchased the RAW files, tried to print them up, then started yelling at us because the pictures don't look the same as the samples the photographer had printed up. Truth is, we, and yourself, can only do that with incredible difficulty, as we are trying to mimick a "look" that the photographers equipment was set up for, that we don't know how it was exactly done. I remember quite clearly this one adorable little cherubic girl picture, where no matter what we tried, we could not re-capture the ame rosy cheeks the photographers sample had.
Fact is, the picture taking is only 1/3rd of the fight for a final picture. 2/3rd of the work is the editing afterwards in this digital age. In the old film days, the opposite was true.
If you were local I'd offer to do your families portraits, but no RAW files, no files whatsoever. After trying digital, I went back to film. You can have the negatives from the sessions. But understand, I do a session fee accordingly.
Plus if a dictatorship did take over the best and most successful way to remove is through peaceful demonstration and protest.
Stop working, sit in the middle of the interstate, masses of people, blocking all interstate commerce. Within 3 hours, the economy would grind to a halt, cutting off all of the supplies that the dictator would need in order to control the populace. Ghandi is the model to use, not Che.
Informations wants to be free, period. To try and close up the pandoras box which is progress is akin to sticking a cork into a volcano. You'll get burned, then watch your city get buried by lava when the eruption does occur anyways.

Don't hear about HP creating new paper that goes only in HP printers, that is dumped on the market in order to destroy competing paper products...

TI seems to be doing well, as they supply a huge portion of the chips within Sun machines.

To claim that forum trolls represent a project is a weak tactic, and had been thrown out of court in every case I have studied.

Unless they negotiated a cross-licensing deal on patents, of course.

CAN I HEAR AN AMEN! INTEL HAS SEEN THE LIGHT... oh what the hell, make their own interconnect...?!?
It makes perfect sence to me. Unified L3, plus two cores off of each L2. 3 2MB L2's plus the L3 does add up.
Does it go to 11?
Intel's coming out with 6 cores.... and?
*pets his 8-core SPARC*

And you do a marvelous job on it as well.
Out of curiosity, what was your setup for this shot? It was very well done and I am always curious to see others work setup for comparison.
She dumped Stan just before her dissapearance, if you'd been paying attention.
Indeed.

Take note of #3, she was sleeping with a CONFESSED MURDERER, Stan Sturgeon.
You forgot XGI, which have had open documentation for their chips for well over a year now.
Hear hear!

I run Ubuntu at 1920x1200 dual monitor nVidia. Why don't we compare conf files and see what the matter is?
Adding to Howie's comments:
Yes, Linux has Token Ring support. I've used it on Token Ring since 1995. (who still uses Token Ring anymore anyways?)
