Everybody's so busy wanting to be down with the gang. "I'm conservative", "I'm liberal", "I'm conservative". Bullshit! Be a fucking person! Lis-ten! Let it swirl around your head. Then form your opinion. No normal, decent person is one thing, okay? I've got some shit I'm conservative about, I've got some shit I'm liberal about. Crime, I'm conservative. Prostitution, I'm liberal!
Based on this decision, my music folder is worth almost $5 billion. How come I have to work for a living, then?
Oh, right, that's not real money, and copyright infringement does not mean actual loss of money for the RIAA. Not to mention I live in Hungary, where fair use covers this. To the guy that got slapped with the $2M, however, is fucked.
While humans don't use pheromones as actively as other animals, the sense of smell still plays a big part in arousal (and in stopping arousal, to be fair).
Pheromones play as big a part as our sense of smell permit it. Everything you can learn about sex from watching squirrels in your backyard also applies to humans. It's just that society has come up with various ways to control those processes, like marriage, religion, and recently dephe^H^H^Hodorants.
Maybe you haven't noticed, but a large portion of the print periodical industry is being unseated without the kindle's help.
What I'd like to see is an e-book reader that fetches my news and favorite comics from tha intarwebs. The first company to come out with it will be rich, guaranteed.
Your argument that you have the right to shift content to wherever you like makes no sense -- you have a written agreement with the carrier that clearly delineates the rights and responsibilities of both parties. The fact that you don't like the term or that you believe you have the "right" to ignore those terms is entirely meaningless. In fact, if you want to talk about fraud, it's breach of contrast to willfully violate the terms of your agreement with the wireless carrier.
Are you sure there is a contract powerful enough to tell me I can't transfer my data from my mobile device to my computer, based on how that data got on my device?
Either this is bullshit, or I should be lucky I don't live anywhere near there.

If you recall, the German invasion of Belgium was enough to get the British into World War I, and likewise, the invasion of Poland started World War II in Europe.
Yes, but not Austria or Czechoslovakia. Hitler wanted too much, too fast.
Oh, and congratulations for godwinning an article about kites.
All those "nice to have" pages would vanish if it weren't for ads.
If you can't support your website with only ads that don't try to grab my attention any possible way they can, don't blame me for using adblock. I have stuff to do, and my attention is valuable enough, especially when I'm looking for the content you want me to look for.
(particularly since a colder state like Michigan probably goes trough asphalt roads a lot faster than warmer areas)
Only if the asphalt was not built with the local climate in mind. This happens in Hungary a lot, due to corruption and incompetence. We know we've arrived in Austria not because of the border, but because the car stops shaking.
In the absence of an external interfering force (e. g., the army of the Soviet Union), the fate of a nation is determined by its people. Period.
I see your people and raise you one mass media. Give them talk shows with retarded people and a vote every now and then, and they'll think they're free.

However, if they ban Half Life, it's war.
Quite the opposite. They won't be able to connect to your server.
That $1,920,000 never existed!! Your $421,200,000 never existed either.
Problem 1: the $1,920,000 DOES exist, and the poor fella will have to pay.
Problem 2: the $421 million does not exist, but the RIAA will be talking about it like it does. And it seems like there are judges who believe them.

It's a fine, not a repayment.
The state gets the money?
If not, that is a repayment, with an interest rate resembling the Zimbabwean inflation.

Now, who's the bad guy again?
Because it's a valid perspective?
You can say that again. Seriously, $2M for 24 files? WHAT THE FUCK?

or may be cancer patients should pay more for expensive drugs.
They already do.
Is that still a requirement for a public office?
Kind of. Those who have, don't run for office.
In other words: Microsoft's Natal Adds Insult To Injury.
While keyboards are still clearly superior if you only have one hand, how many other types of controllers are out there if you're disabled?
Maybe the wiimote, but that requires you to wave it around too much.
Now we're very happy with the solution.

Godwin's Law in 2 minutes. Must be a record.
In an article about a TOTALITARIAN move by the GERMAN government? I'm surprised it took so long.
And I am sure it won't be long before DNS proxies will show up on ports other than 53...!
And we all know those can't be hijacked.

I'm sure there's a firefox addon for that. Would go along nicely with adblock.
Are they going to suspend Virgin Corporation's internet access if one of their employees downloads an MP3 using it?
Don't be silly. After all, it's "information", not "court order". It will only hurt the little guys.
Where's the fun in that?!
Not where, when.

I wonder how much Slashdot got from that "massive marketing budget" TFA speaks of. There is nothing else of value in there.
