Is this supposed to be the argument that convinces me that it's ok for anyone to deploy landmines? Because they're useful tools in the time of war? If it's not, please point me at it, because I don't see it. You know what else is a useful tool in the time of war? Killing POWs. I mean, hell, more troops are freed up to fight, so we should have fewer casualties, right? But we don't, because it's fucking BARBARIC. Just like landmines.
Arguably, shooting people with guns is just as barbaric. Should we abandon those, as well? Heck, just killing people is barbaric! We should outlaw war... that would solve the problems. Clearly, if war was illegal, no one would need any guns.
With a Kodak digital camera I have. The shutter button was constantly drooping over the contact, locking up the camera. I took the case apart, and shoved a very small roll of paper under the button arm to hold it up. I haven't had any problems since then!
No offense, but if quality count, probably me not hire you...
The written word has an amazing effect at conveying a person's perceived intelligence. When used well, it is to your advantage. When poorly used, it is to your detriment.
It's the only realistic solution... computer users are 100% responsible for computer attacks and hacking. Clearly, owning a computer should be illegal for individuals. Just wait... you'll see...
That's what search warrants and sub-poenas are for... we shouldn't really need any more laws about this, one would think... but then, one wouldn't think have the stuff that gets passed:/
I agree about reading. I grew up pretty much just reading for entertainment; I hardly watched any television.
Now, my grammar and spelling are impeccable.
Of course, there's probably also some of that nature/nurture stuff which must be taken into account.
"Style" is not something that can be copyrighted. Only works can be copyrighted.
Maybe not theoretically, but I recall a model car painting kit with a picture of a Porsche in it, and in the fine print it said that the name Porsche, the horse logo, and "the distinctive design" of their cars are copyright of Porsche.
There was a Dilbert strip where the PHB asked him to download the internet, and print off a couple hard copies. Who would have guessed he was so visionary?
It depends how you want this "anti-gravity" to be applied. In some cases, "anti-gravity" might be an additional regular gravity source that pulls something upwards, instead of being something that repels stuff upwards.
For example, a building might make use of a gravity generator at the top, which could pull the elevators upwards, rather than an anti-gravity device at the bottom to push them up.
I'd try to figure out what that means for me, but I'm afraid I'd violate a patent in so doing. I guess I'll just stop thinking to be on the safe side...

Your quote from the article is inconsistent only with the summary.
After that many chairs flying in my direction, I'd quit, too. :)
Interesting... I have their non-pro plan, and I get 167/32 KB!
Dang it, that's what happens when you revise too quickly... er... I mean, the superposition didn't resolve!
May Heisenberg will protect us!

Four score and 7 cents ago, our fore-Apple pulled out...
Just because you're ignorant doesn't mean you have to mod something informative.

No, it was definitely copyright... that's why I remembered it. :)

If you buy a genuine diamond, you're also getting shafted. Should people take those, too?
I'm guessing for a "reasonable" fee you can be put on a list to make sure your software doesn't "accidentally" get mis-classified and deleted.

I just patented making money on Slashdot via advertising... I'll be waiting for my checks.

I found the pyramids at Giza. That's pretty cool.
Just in case Coral Cache version
They just need to make it clear that it would be a violation of the DMCA for the DoJ to look at this stuff!
