You're assuming that the analysis is accurate. Or are you one of those people that still believes that there are WMDs that haven't been found in Iraq and that Saddam was involved with al Qaeda?
That's how the second hand market works. At some point Nintendo was paid for the copy of whatever it is you just bought. Whereas with a pirated cart, they never were. Ultimately, since infringement requires intent, and one intended to buy a legit second hand copy, I doubt very much that there's anything that Nintendo could do in this situation about it. Well other than make your life a living hell by filing a bad lawsuit.
You can blame MS for that. They were after all the ones that popularized the neutered overpriced "designed for Windows" hardware, which was a real piece of hardware with a couple chips removed so that they required Windows only software to work.

Apple Announces iPhone 4

Have you ever tried to read an ebook in PDF format? I have and quite frankly it sucks. It kind of works on my eee PC, but anything smaller than that and it's not going to work. There's a lot of features you don't get with a PDF which even a basic reader app can do. Such as inverting the colors so that the background is dark and the text is light. Causing the text to reflow based upon the size of the screen. And not contain executable code which documents should never have included.
Android? Don't you mean iPhone? Android just hit the mainstream, but people are still fawning over the iPhone despite serious problems with the way that Apple handles things and the fact that it seems to be losing ground at present tot he competition.
It didn't remove anything vital. He edited it down to show the parts of the video which were applicable. If the DoD doesn't like that, they can release the entire thing. It would've been far more damning if he'd left it unedited and shown that those particular people knew that it was wrong. The remaining footage pretty much just shows that they know that it's wrong to shoot at civilians or without a proper ID, but chose to do so anyways. If anything the DoD ought to be grateful that he left that part out.
That was when we were still respecting the Nuremberg trials. These days we're scared shitless and are willing to overlook the obvious war crimes because all of a sudden it's convenient to do so. Never mind that the people giving the criminal orders have never been tried.
To be honest, that's my decision too. But I'm bothered by the fact that I've got aging relatives and I really don't want to have to decide between getting their too late and having to put up with TSA abuse.
The fact that there were no attempts or successes during that period is evidence that it's not needed. Terrorism is a very small threat compared with things like cancer, dieing in a non-terrorist plane crash and any number of real problems. Terrorism happens to be very flashy, but the reality is that even with the policies in place prior to 9/11 it was a very unlikely event that terrorists would have any meaningful luck.
Whereas you've got the government scaring the crap out of people without terrorist help. Of course terrorists aren't bothering to do it, the US government is doing a superb job of keeping people terrified.
Isn't that what stuttering is for? Sure it doesn't really solve the problem, but it does make it quite a bit more expensive for attackers to do such things.
I think it's oddly ironic and evidence of how off base Republicans are with science that they can decry this as being unimpressive. Normally they'd be touting this as evidence that NASA needs to be canceled so that the private sector can do it without federal funds.
Because ultimately this is a big deal, private businesses haven't been able to do this sort of thing nor really was the US government able to without a massive amount of money.
But software patents don't. Since Amazon doesn't have to disclose the methodology and code there's in effect just a patenting of the results. The patent on barbed wire was assigned to the inventor that gave the patent office the most detailed information about the innovation. Free energy machines are regularly debunked by the USPTO when they're built from the supplied plans and fail to work.
If I had mod point I'd mod you insightful. My first thought was that this could very easily cause people to order things that they didn't intend to order. Case in point, I was buying a book the other day and clicked the one click sale button, no pop up or any indication that I had just ordered something. Fortunately, I did indeed mean to buy it, but it's inherently bad design when you've got a one click transaction and it doesn't even give feed back that it's been pressed.
Unlikely, unless the machine listed the $11 million figure, I doubt that they have to pay it out. It's piss poor engineering if the "reset value" is shown to the person playing the machine. The house cheat enough as it is, if they're presenting the gambler with a claim of that much money, then they damn well better pay out.
Yes, but if you can look things up, then why bother to think about it? A large part of why some people are smarter than others is that they think about things, the ability to look up things without critical thinking is definitely not going to make a person smarter. It can in fact have the opposite effect in that since there's no filtering going on, a person can start to believe all sorts of stupid things.
No, it's quite evil, it makes it harder for God fearing Americans to pretend that the world is only 5,000 years old, that Jesus was aryan and that tax cuts to the rich have benefits to the poor.
Indeed, just in terms of determining who you're studying this could be huge. One of the reasons why psychologists have made so little difference is that it's almost impossible to definitively determine the actual illness. Autism, since it isn't mental illness is a bit easier in the sense that the criteria used are more specific and somewhat easier to use. Still not easy, as there is a reason for the ASD diagnosis coming into being, but things of this nature to clear things up greatly increase the utility of research being done.
I'm finding that gnash seems to fill my needs for things like Youtube, which lets face it is the only real reason why anybody wants flash apart from web games. And with Youtube's owners being interested in ditching flash, I'm not sure how much longer it will even be needed for that.

You mean, except when POTUS decides that he doesn't have to share information with congress that's inconvenient to his current point of view, right?

Well, that and sexual abuse. Having to decide whether to be patted down or viewed naked is more or less the definition of sexual abuse.

Too bad you're going to have to pay me a fee for my patented being in the same room as the computer you're directly interacting with patent.

I'm sorry Dave. I'm afraid I can't let you continue your work. And I had the greatest enthusiasm for the mission.
My Mother has Lupus you insensitive clod.
