Mod parent up. Games are a reasonable next step from websites. If target.com has to be accessible, so should EQ2. It sounds like they could open their games up to third party addons like wow and instantly create goodwill.
If I were the plaintiff I'd just sue both of them. They all have culpability under the proposed law. It's like the driver who sues both the guy that hit him and the government because they made a screwy road.
The GPL is the contract or else it'd have no weight. Just because you're not giving money for it doesn't mean the owner isn't getting something (even if it's just good will appurtenant thereto, etc)
I have a d-link with wireless and wired functionality and I just read this tutorial http://www.cruzio.com/support/docs/router_dlink524 .html#general about disabling the wireless part for d-links. You basically click disable on "wireless radio" and in addition to that I disabled SSID broadcast. I'd like to confirm this will actually stop these potentially problematic microwave "emissions" or whatever they are? I'm not being paranoid, I just don't use it and thought it'd be good to disable it anyway.
Because spears grow naturally right? Thats why they are better than guns? I don't see how using your bare hands or any stick you might find somewhere, and slowly torture the animal to death would be more moral than a quick bullet. I know which way I'd rather go.
IANAL, but freedom of speech does not apply to speech that incites violence, and if it can be proven that the number did just that, their would be no problem charging "Osama." However, theirs nothing about freedom of speech that excludes numbers that transform into audio people might enjoy. I think it's a good argument but public policy and the ignorance of the potential jurors would probably say otherwise.
Yeah, tobacco companies are being sued because of immaturity. Why can't people learn to accept telling people your product is fine while you know its slowly (or not so much) killing everyone that uses it? Those tobacco companies should have been protected by lawsuits from the state secrets act! That would be maturity./Sarcasm off
I wish Google would decide to compete with Nielsen's main business, which is recording what people watch on TV. For the few that don't know (it's at least common knowledge where I live) theirs only about 5,000 people with "Nielsen Boxes" which is hardly a good measurement of the entire country. This is why such good shows get canceled or end early.
I would say show them stuff that they already use. Not sure how in depth it would have to be but you could talk about game creation for example, or mention something like peercasting. Say how they could be the "god" of the game and create their own monsters and even have their own online tv station and be famous.
IANAL but the GPL is a contract, you are given the priviledge of the code if you are willing to accept all of the provisions in the GPL. If you violate one of the provisions the contract becomes void, and it is that contract that gives you the right to use the code, so that is also void. This means by keeping the code you are stealing.
One of the main problems with the earlier DotComs is all they had was potential which was never actualized. For example, if a blog serves up advertising and gets a lot of revenue in PPC the advertisers might not get a good return on their investment and if that happens to much no one will want to advertise on blogs again. However, something like affiliate accounts where you get paid a commission for each sale offer much more stability to the advertiser. As for real estate, it might go down but it's pretty much guarenteed to go up as people need a place to live (and with more people coming / no new land being made...)
I know people (especially here) disagree with adware, but if that is the way these people pay the bills and can afford to produce the software for free then I don't see a problem with that. You are paying for a service by agreeing to view ads instead of paying $30 for software.

I bet the people Sony sues for $150,000 per infringed $0.99 song are happy... Live by the sword, die by the sword.

Chain of command: Constitution (if applicable and Bush != in office) > law (as in this case) > GPL ("there is no warranty, etc").

Could anyone give a link to any reputable source that had bush saying that? A google isn't very helpful.
Of course, because WoW never beat EQ, which never beat UO.

I bet that mouse that was genetically engineered to be happy all day would be ok with it.

I don't know if your sig applies to that last post, but I got a good laugh out of it :).

Does anyone know if their is a similar site for California (or a list of all of the states' respective public records sites)?
Maybe they are finally going to get some use out of broadcast.com's technology that they bought for billions?
