That's still completely irrelevant. GP (GGP now) was making a baseless claim that licensing revenue is the only thing propping up Windows Phone (which for what it's worth probably isn't even in EDD any more, since Windows Phone is actually literally Windows 8 and probably accounted for in WD now) - when the annual (quarterly?) reports quite clearly show where all the money actually comes from (deferred/manipulated or not).
Especially since I'm pretty sure they deliberately defer the shit out of every number to make as much of an on-paper loss as possible (it may be called Hollywood accounting, but it's not specific to LA).
Because they are forbidden to issue a certificate with a greater validity than 39 months in accordance with the CA/Browser Forum Baseline Requirements for Publicly Trusted Certificates (warning: PDF). If they were to violate this, they'd have GTE's root certificate de-listed by Apple, Google, Mozilla, KDE, Opera, Blackberry and... um... Microsoft. Which would invalidate their subordinate certificate.
Except that companies like Microsoft and Google register domains through "Enterprise" registrars like MarkMonitor, who charge upwards of a few hundred (possibly even thousand) dollars per year for their service - which supposedly includes "not letting the fucking things expire" and "making sure other people don't register our damn marks".
Microsoft actually has even less excuse in this instance, believe it or not - Microsoft's certificate vendor is itself. All MS certificates are chained up to a Microsoft subordinate CA (with a GTE root). So it wasn't a failure to pay for a certificate since they don't actually pay for them - it was just someone not bothering to open the certificates MMC and click "Renew Certificate". Hell, it's probably even AD integrated so there's no need to fill in any fields.
Yeah, but who is? AWS has more outages than I care to remember, Rackspace has had it's share of outages, Google goes down like once a month, even Apple can't keep a service up - and that's pretty much all the big players counted out.
You do realise their annual reports are broken down into a little more detail than that right? You can see plain as day exactly how much Xbox brings in compared to Windows Phone (which since it's just Windows 8 is probably attributed to the Windows Division now) and how much licensing brings in. Your reminder falls flat on it's face upon reflection of that point.
Except that they're not offering services in the EU. They have a website from which people anywhere can buy things, but that does not make it "offering services in the EU" any more than me typing this comment on a website which is viewable from Saudi Arabia makes me subject to Saudi law.
Annoyingly all the partner countries see this as a bad thing and scramble to crush their own economies into dust to help exporters (fucking New Zealand! The $0.85 exchange rate is the only reason petrol is only $2.17 a litre!)
Perhaps hackers won't be able to direct purchasers to themselves, but this is an absolute massive opening (that's what she said) to allow hackers to ruin someone's life. Imagine a messy divorce, and one of the parties is a vengeful douche. Cue the other party in the divorce suddenly being shipped everything under the sun... most likely things that will get them in trouble, fired, or otherwise ostracized from the community.
Not likely. AmEx is ridiculously reputation sensitive, and wouldn't take on any product that could cause embarrassment. Ever noticed how CCBill doesn't accept AmEx?
You can claim that something's infringing for a start - the statement that the information in the notice is accurate is not under penalty of perjury. The statement in the counter-notice IS.
Actually, the GPL does not bind the copyright owner - even the FSF makes this clear. It can only bind people who require a license from the copyright owner in order to do something with a work. Oracle is well within their rights to dual license, just as you are with anything you independently create.
Then hold your government accountable for it, rather than just ignoring the laws you don't like. Your argument is an excuse, not a justification. And it's not even a good one.
€10 EUR is pretty close to $25 NZD. And they have to pay for all three, and the tribunal doesn't have to award them the costs of those back. And, they can only send one a month per person.
No, because the tribunal will see that as willful infringement and will not be inclined to hand out such tiny payments. In fact, you'd probably end up being hit with something closer to the statutory $15,000 maximum.

No, it means "not charged per use". You can be charged an upfront fee for a royalty-free license.

Apple. iCloud uses Azure Storage for (some) document storage.

IE10 has a spell checker now. They're only 5 years late, but they got there.

It also supports Joliet/CDFS.
But if does support Installable File System drivers, which could easily ship on the install CD - which is neither FAT nor NTFS either.

So what you're saying is it all points back to the United States (Gamestop Inc)?
Surprise surprise.
Valve is incorporated in the United States, and are not bound to those laws, hence you can do none of those things.
Substitute "Prenda Law" for "Recording Industry Association of America".... and the story remains just as accurate. Yet which is facing sanctions?
Could be worse... at least Facebook purges EXIF data!
If you're paying 5%, you're being ripped off.

An American high school education or a foreign one?
For the billionth fucking time, it wasn't tax payers money.
It wouldn't work. You'd be contributing $40,000 a month to cost them $4,000 at most.
