EULAs with software do not have a good history in court because its impossible (in most cases) to have read the contract before "agreeing" to it (amongst other things like the contract being beyond the ability of a reasonable person to grasp).
In the case of contracts using electronic signatures (which really aren't the sort of EULA that the OP was using the terminology for), it seems that those are pretty well established as valid (the IRS uses them for electronic returns, for example).
Eh. I prefer the time-limiting or similar idea for demos to the crippled demos. The whole bit where one imagines that someone will want to play a game by making them play a crippled version of it before hand always seemed odd to me.
It's like trying to sell strawberry-banana icecream by giving people a sample of banana icecream, and then saying "now imagine if it had STRAWBERRY too!"
Turns out the leaked version of this has been around for at least a week. Various xChan boards have been doing threads featuring a variety of memes that were created using it.
Not terribly surprised that the "demo" is crippled. It's EA after all. Too bad about the SecureROM nonsense, though.
Well, they (judges and justices, all-inclusive) are there to both interpret the law and to determine if the law is constitutional.
This is why people roll their eyes when wackjobs start harping about "activist judges". That's what judges are there for, to temper the will of the people (or their representatives), and the power of the executive branch, via applying the filter of the Constitution to their actions.
You just use a rar splitter and do hundreds of 1.44mb posts along with parity files.
There's also these things called NZBs now, that are basically little index files that some newsreaders can interpret, and allows you to spread parts of archives all over the place. So long as the person opening the nzb has access to those groups, they don't even have to subscribe to them manually (I don't think, anyway).
But you'd definitely spend more time and money keeping dogs (or did you think that farmers/ranchers before the advent of firearms just did nothing when livestock were threatened?).
Yeah, but AFAIK, coyotes will typically only take livestock that size if their normal food sources are in short supply that season. They like the low hanging fruit. Or I suppose if a cow wandered away too far.
Also, they were not "reintroduced". This is a completely different variety of wolf than we had before. They are much larger, and much, much more aggressive. These wolves are newly introduced. They have nothing to do with this part of the country. These wolves are as home here as they would be in Central Park in New York City. Shouldn't we "reintroduce" some of them there, also? It would make every bit as much sense as it did to saddle us with them.
The native wolf populations in the west needed to be able to take down bison.
As such, they were very large (and even then had to take down bison as packs). Do you really thing tiny little wolves could survive in the environment?
There needs to be some way to send something to someone without sending it to the world. I don't care what that technique is, just tell me what it is. Some way for me to send my recording to you, without giving you the right to profit from it, or to publicize it.
It's called a contract (which has good legal foundation) or DRM (which is easily breakable).
The fact of the matter is, in this case, the samples were sent unsolicited and as such, were gifts. That's old, established precedent.
Even if you sell me something, I can resell it. That's it. If you don't like it, don't sell me anything. It is often the case that I can't copy it, retain the original, and sell the copy (or vice versa), but I *can* sell the original so long as I don't retain a copy. Doctrine of first sale. Deal with it.

I've always maintained that amateur tab is the very epitome of legal reverse engineering.
It's really hard to explain that to musicians, though. And I am one. So... yeah.
I think that we're confusing a few things here.

Sounds a little bit more like it wasn't on Native American land, but instead was non-sovereign land where they had some site they considered sacred.
Finally, someone with actual numbers.
Agrarian societies usually have large families (or attempt to) in order to provide cheap farm labor.
True. Not even the Fast Money crowd, notorious for not caring what they invest in so long as it makes money, hates the whole idea of corn ethanol.
I, likewise, was not aware such things existed.
I think you mean quantitative?
I suppose if you want to consider uuencoded posts to be of lower quality, or critique the grammar within, it could be qualitative?
How does judicial review compare in Sweden to the way it works in the US?

I should avoid feeding the troll.

Just because you've read the constitution, doesn't mean you understand how US government actually works.
Yeah, it's pretty funny how often the actions of a judge/justice have very little to do with who appointed them.

I think you underestimate the value a good herd of herding dogs.
That there are predators in the rest of the world, too?
Do you really think that farms and ranches only came into existence in the US, and only after the advent of firearms?
You are then using a very narrow definition of "AI" which is not generally shared by those who work in AI.
Compared to most of the good NSPs, a week is pretty sad. Giganews has retention that goes back (at the moment) to around November, for example.

virtual_mps seems to think there's a qualitative difference between text that is in english and uuencoded text, I guess
I think the real death of Usenet came about because it doesn't look pretty from the user interface standpoint. Has little to do with the content.
Well, no.

Not necessarily. Many ranchers have their stock grazing on public land.
