Yes, I did mean Murphy's Law... Ironically, that comment was made on the same day on which I had seen someone refer to Murphy's Lay in relation to CPU speed. I'd link to it but I only spend 12 hours a day here and it would take at least 13 to find it again.
I'm a rightsholder. I hold all the rights The Constitution of the United States of America enumerates, in addition to many, many more, which it does not.
I haven't seen any court rulings in favor of those rights in a while.
Actually, and you can check with Verizon if you don't believe me, three extra zeros is no longer the same number. You can, however, add two more zeros and it's still the same.

[edit] The term "piracy"
The practice of labeling the act of infringement as "piracy" actually predates copyright itself. Even prior to the 1709 enactment of the Statute of Anne, generally recognized as the first copyright law, the Stationers' Company of London in 1557 received a Royal Charter giving the company a monopoly on publication and tasking it with enforcing the charter. Those who violated the charter were labeled pirates as early as 1603.[2]
For electronic and audio-visual media, unauthorized reproduction and distribution is occasionally referred to as piracy or theft (an early reference was made by Alfred Tennyson in the preface to his poem "The Lover's Tale" in 1879 where he mentions that sections of this work "have of late been mercilessly pirated").
But, see, the shot glasses in your analogy only contain the 5 scrambled works, with no keys whatsoever. In fact, at no point in your post do you mention the keys, or even allude to their existence.
Admittedly, for your logic to be valid, the keys must exist. Ironically, there was no eleventh shot glass, full of keys.
You reply clears that up. However, it also takes a completely different logical path to get to the same conclusion. At least, in your reply, you don't need a teleport to get from the end of the path to your conclusion.
So, then, since a (good) dictionary contains all of the words in a language, it is violating the copyright of each and every creative work done in that language?
By your logic, it would seem so. I can recreate all of the works of Shakespear from a single Webster's Dictionary.
I have mod points and could have modded parent up. However, I feel it more productive to point out that parent is right on topic, being a bumper-sticker style quote and all. I'll let the rest of the fine mods take care of the rest.
That really depends which cases you see the GTX 280 performing better in. If they're all cases in which the 9800 GX2 is running at its peak and the GTX 280 is, perhaps, not, I'd be led to believe that we haven't seen the full potential of the 280.
I'm not a gamer (in fact, I make very light use of 3D acceleration) and I know that any increase in speed is significant.
At any rate, the article claims something different than what you seem to claim. It compares the GTX 280 to two 9800GTX's in SLI, which would perform differently than the 9800 GX2.
Again, not a gamer. I guess that means I have more free time to actually learn about how the hardware works and educate others via Slashdot.
Now, I'll sit back and let the grammar nazis point out the error in the first line, which I'm going to be too lazy to go back and correct.
Just because the rich may be "smart" enough to devise a plan to gain complete control, don't think we're not all smart enough to put an end to it before it gets that far.
Right now, things are bad in a lot of places. Most people don't see it because it doesn't effect them. When more people see it, more people will do something about it.
I'll tell ya what, if I ever get a job building AI soldiers, I'll be sure to incorporate some weakness into the ones I build. Hell, if I get a job coding for the "project", rest assured they'll ALL stop attacking if you scream "BANANA SPLITS ARE GOOD!" in front of them.
The rich may have financial savvy, that doesn't make them smart.
When the rich (few) don't need the poor (many) anymore, you can expect the few be be faced with having to defend themselves from the many. I don't know about you, but I can get pretty fierce.

And a comment like this sees no moderation at all. Amazing.
Opinion - A judge's written explanation of a decision of the court or of a majority of judges.
Ruling - Any decision a judge makes during the course of a lawsuit.
My original comment still stands. Pedants 1, Trolls 0.

3. If the developer violated someone else's copyright by using their code w/out a license, that developer's code should not be protected by copyright.
Six zeros is different, too. My bad.

When they're immortal (or not), you can be sure they'll be back.
The flaming box of Schroedinger's RIAA will probably crashland in your back yard, based on Moore's Law.
And they'll come back as Nazis. Thank you, Godwin.
IANAL too
So do I.
You mention Schroedinger in your post. Then, you suggest putting the RIAA in a box and launching it at the sun.
Do you intend to open the box while it's in the center of the sun, in order to verify that they're dead?
If not, they may just live forever.
Scary.

I had that idea 16 years ago. I was 10. It would work, as well. That's why it will never happen.

Probably not. I'm pretty sure I was speaking hypothetically. The rich will always have a use for me, I work in real-estate.
How many do you think I'll let get built before I start fighting?

Burning karma here but... THIS is why I love Slashdot!A pencil? May I suggest something to help grow that pencil to something more substantial...
