Well, the infringing party isn't in the public sector, and we can work under the assumption that the law is correctly implemented in this case, since Italy is using the law in what seems to be a manner consistent with the directive.
If that happened, the immediate reaction would be to discontinue the product lines and introduce new products that are exactly the same but with different part numbers. The lifetime of the product is then over.
EU directives are implemented, but individual nations have to create a law based around that, and are fully tasked with enforcing those laws in their own territory. So, the EU directive is basically irrelevant, as they violated it in Italy, but may have complied in other EU member nations.
That's the attitude that pushes us to be better in every field. Shit sucks, even though it's still better than what most of the rest of the world is doing. While Japan may have a more reliable automotive, they don't have one with better feature sets as of yet. Germany may have better feature sets, but don't have the same reliability as even an American automobile. It's a game of measuring things relative to everyone else; in that case, overall, we're surely doing better. We have areas that can be improved, and many areas where foreign firms are catching up, but we're not outright done on the world stage.
iPads, as far as I've seen from the original, are not "instant on". Rather, they're instant-wake from sleep, with a standard length boot. Same goes for my Galaxy S 10.1, and Lenovo X-series Tablet PC. This may have changed with the iPad 2, but I doubt it.
It actually has a more right wing spin when phrased as a "Automatic tax increase", given their position on tax increases. ""Extending a tax cut" is pretty well a middle term to me. I don't think there's a truly left-leaning way of phrasing it, but someone could prove me wrong.
How not? The raw energy needed to burn through those calculations remains the same, while the time the screen is on decreases in the use case of picking up the phone to find a small piece of information. If you have something like JuiceDefender turning off data connections when the screen turns off, you're going to have a similar effect from using 4G vs 3G - quicker load times, and less overall energy used in the time between sleep states.
If you overclock the CPU and don't need to have the screen on for as long as a result (i.e. waiting for an app to load takes 1 second instead of 1.5), you're clearly ahead of the game in power consumption because the screen is using far more energy than the CPU. This adds up over time too, so silky smooth operation usually equates to lower battery consumption overall.
You can turn right at a red in New Jersey, for sure. There's signs that tell you otherwise at specific intersections, but it's legal by default for at least the last 10 years.
x64 capable hardware doesn't mean PC manufacturers are all shipping only x64 configurations for the past 4 years. You have to consider that regular, everyday users don't upgrade the way people in tech-related industries do, so expect people with XP to still be all over the place - and they use 32 bit versions nearly exclusively. While dropping 32 bit support is something that lots of places are going to start considering in a year or two, it's not going to happen just yet, when XP has over 30% market share.
The metadata of a file isn't available until you actually download the file, after which point you're already guilty. You would need to have that data available in the torrent description, or some other easily accessible area visible before the download.
This has nothing to do with DNS. When an image is "removed" from Facebook, the image is left on the server. The URL is something like this: http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/ . Using the rest of the url, you can always access the image because they're not changing around which servers are assigned which names.
5% is average beer. There's both weaker and stronger beers. You seem to pick from the stronger varieties, but Miller, Coors and Bud are all = 5%, and combined make up more than 75% of the US beer market.
I guess that depends whether you're drinking bottles, cans or oversized mugs to be honest. I was thinking cans (12oz), which are definitely going to have less than an ounce @ the typical 5% of the average beer.

Does the fact that the US moved to first-to-file apply even to litigation involving patents before the transition took place, unequivocally?

Not like the alternatives are much better, if raw year count is your sole measure for how good of a decision it is to use a specific operating system.

Why'd they buy that Israeli flash manufacturer a couple weeks ago, then?
I've known cops who either leave it turned off (on the few models that it can still be done manually) or turn it sideways so they're never taped.

If it were irrelevant, nobody else would want to use it.

I don't think so. That becomes another gadget to carry around, as it's not even like it can fold in with the iPhone and reduce its footprint.
There's a GUI builder in ADT's Eclipse packages. You don't need to hand-edit the vast majority of the XML it produces.

Does that mean I get to carry two mugs of beer at all times?
Steam users are more likely to be running a 64 bit OS because they're gamers, and actually care about what hardware they're using.

Megaupload has ads as well.

Looks like the iOS spellcheck is pretty awesome too.
