Ok, so you submit stories under one name, create a new account, and then post the very second the article is submitted.
We get it, you have an agenda you want to promote, but you don't want to do it under your own account because it is already known you are just a shill and this makes it harder to ignore you.
I just have one request, fuck off.
Slashdot Editors, if you continue to be apparently complicit in helping him push his agenda then people will quit having discussions on this site. It will badly damage/.'s reputation and in the end your bottom line.
In February 1982, AMD signed a contract with Intel, becoming a licensed second-source manufacturer of 8086 and 8088 processors. IBM wanted to use the Intel 8088 in its IBM PC, but IBM's policy at the time was to require at least two sources for its chips. AMD later produced the Am286 under the same arrangement, but Intel canceled the agreement in 1986 and refused to convey technical details of the i386 part. AMD challenged Intel's decision to cancel the agreement and won in arbitration, but Intel disputed this decision. A long legal dispute followed, ending in 1994 when the Supreme Court of California sided with AMD. Subsequent legal disputes centered on whether AMD had legal rights to use derivatives of Intel's microcode. In the face of uncertainty, AMD was forced to develop clean room designed versions of Intel code.
In 1991, AMD released the Am386, its clone of the Intel 386 processor. It took less than a year for the company to sell a million units. Later, the Am486 was used by a number of large original equipment manufacturers, including Compaq, and proved popular. Another Am486-based product, the Am5x86, continued AMD's success as a low-price alternative. However, as product cycles shortened in the PC industry, the process of reverse engineering Intel's products became an ever less viable strategy for AMD.
So I take it that you have always paid for your vehicles all cash up front as well as your house so you can really tell them because you lead by personal example, right?
I think to develop a warp drive we may need a laboratory that is no where near a gravity well. Otherwise it would be like trying to develop fan technology while in a category five hurricane.
It's in Italy* and involves the Catholic Church, of course there is corruption going on. Actually, since corruption is the norm is it really corruption, or just an undocumented procedure?
And although I do agree that there are a fair number of stories on this site regarding action against whistleblowers, does that mean that each story regarding the hunt for whistleblowers should be discussed here, or just the ones that are nerd based?
* Italy, Vatican City, close enough to the same thing.
Problems with that sort of data mining is the enormous amounts of information one would have to store to hopefully have some information that is helpful, and you don't always know what is going to be helpful.
As an example I have stated in numerous topics that there are few prominent people I would like to see shot, therefor it makes sense for the government to then begin logging all my posts with the thinking that if I did plan on doing something or I did something already they would already have a case against me ready to go.
The problems happen when hundreds of thousands of people or more start saying these things, then exactly what they want to look for ends up being noise.
The problem is that even with this camera, if what you are looking at is not illuminated then it will not be visible (think asteroid in shadow of moon).
So basically the worlds largest digital camera needs the worlds largest camera flash. I would suggest using a low yield nuclear warhead, but there would be a few issues with that.
It is politically beneficial it for politicians to cut NASA's funding, but other agencies want these projects done so they do it because they actually have the funding to do it.
So yea, it is sad for NASA, but it's not NASA's fault.
Yep, was thinking about putting up a did not RTFA post.
And no, I did not think that Google's management nor it's lawyers would be stupid enough to do what was posted they were doing.
Hmmm, I really should RTFA now rather than respond to what you posted, but what the hell, why not?
Make sure that you have the necessary rights to grant us this licence for any content you submit to our Services.
Ok, so taking in what you posted still does not get them out of hot water, and still keeps me in hot water. Just because I was lax in not getting a license before I stored mp3's n such that does not excuse google from not having a license for files on their service.
This sounds like a very very very bad idea, no way can it be as stupid as it sounds.
This means that if I put anything that is copyrighted on the google drive I could then be prosecuted for distributing copyrighted material, and google would also be liable since they then claim license over the files I uploaded.
At this point they are gathering evidence, it is usually once evidence is gathered and found lacking that they would manufacture evidence. They don't even know at this point whom they would have to manufacture evidence against.
Why contaminate a perfectly good case with manufactured evidence when it's not needed?

You are either delusional or a shill.

Step one, someone has to submit the story.
Did you submit those stories?

M.A.D. strategies don't work too well when one side is perfectly fine with destruction.
Considering the posts have the same time stamp as the story it is obvious that /. is complicit in this and therefor unlikely to implement any changes.
The way my science teacher explained it to the class was that you will not get an engine to work better by shooting it.
Or to simplify it even further, doing bad things to something rarely has positive results.
BIE?
EIP!
Hey, it works for Fark.
So, do you work for /. or do you pay them for them to post your story submissions?
If you check out the name of the person who made first post, along with the time stamp you'll see why it was written as inflammatory as possible.
I'm finally coming around to the opinion that /. is taking money for some story submissions such as this one.
So I take it that you have always paid for your vehicles all cash up front as well as your house so you can really tell them because you lead by personal example, right?

Google bought Sketch-up to create content for Google Earth, I imagine Trimble would want it for a similar reason.
At the time Sketch-up made sense for creating 3D content for Google Earth.

Although the story is interesting, this is not the place for it.
Slashdots "editors" pretty much just choose which stories to post. I think that might be the extent of their duties.

I really should get some sort of achievement for that.

I believe they can, but they first have to find out who you are and that is the stage they are at now.
At this point they are gathering evidence, it is usually once evidence is gathered and found lacking that they would manufacture evidence. They don't even know at this point whom they would have to manufacture evidence against.
