You are wrong, as it is a fact that Exxon causes 150,000 deaths per year. At least Nature says so!
IANAL, and this is not legal advice, just my opinion. YMMV.
Capitalism does not depend on innovation. It depends on exploitation. Because the capitalist isn't the guy making the innovation, but the boss of the guy who does the work. I agree with your point about innovation being the reason we live beyond the ripe old age of 35.
The CLI is a perfect user interface. It makes it easy to string large numbers of actions after each other and is fairly uniform across programs. Everything about is transparent. I can view context-sensitive help about any feature with just 4 more keystrokes:"m" "a" "n" and " ". Let's count the number of files in my home directory:
$ls ~ | wc -l
or (on Mac OS X) clicking on "Finder" in the Dock, clicking on my home directory, and then struggling to count the large number of files. What if I want to count dot files also?
$ls -a ~|wc -1
Good luck doing that with the Finder.
It doesn't matter what the citizens demand. Citizens are to dumb to decide anything, and should leave power in the hands of the experts who will make the world safe for "democracy" and "free enterprise".
And now that target is my target, and your target, and Joe's target. David against Goliath isn't good odds for David unless he has a lot of people his size gang up on Goliath. Then it's better odds then David vs. someone his size.
...because big companies can profit off it. I suggest reading Empire by Negri and Hardt. One of their points is that a lot of the separate struggles for freedom have the same enemy, namely the interests of the propertied class.
Would you prefer we elected Republicans instead? Yes, the Democrats betrayed the left, but would the Republicans have been any better? Remember that liberals are now hammering the Democrats to grow that most rare of all Washington institutions, a spine.
Property is a violation of a natural right. When we recognize the concept of bourgeois property we are ceasing to recognize the rights to free association and democratic control of the means of production. Respecting the baker's property is a violation of the starving man's right to live, and what can be more natural then that right to life? Property law is just as wrong as copyright law.
So that's why the government spends 28% of all expenditures in biomedical research leading to such unprofitable drugs as Taxol. And that's why the government didn't fund the atomic bomb project leading to nuclear reactors. A lot of blue-sky research is eventually very profitable, but because of the large amounts of investment required impossible for private industry.
And what exactly is so bad with Communism? Seems to work for burners. Seems to have worked for the anarchists in Spain. Seems to work for those who have tried it without repression. Looks like it's even working in Venezuela. And the most cited man alive seems to like it.
Compeditors have more to gain from a patent portfolio+cross licensing agreement then they do from invalidated patents. Unless we have public review or honest people reviewing this won't work.
Name one colony that is now prosperous that was liberated during the twentieth century without going through socialism. Name one instance where shock treatment has not lead to massive inequity, corruption, and unemployment. And anyone who believed Iraq had weapons of mass destruction in 2003 would be ignoring the reports of the UN inspectors. As for relinquishing control to colonial leaders, look at how well that worked in Africa.

I don't want to troll, but I wonder why so many Americans are leaving for Europe rather than joining the CPUSA or the SPUSA?
But won't the simulated female do either of the first two to the simulated man?
That's why you should make one of the requirements "motivation".
and do one of the items, test the patch, and submit it. Then repeat.
What about Noam Chomsky? He is an expert on American foreign policy, but has a PhD in linguistics.

Tell that to the slaves of the south. "We can't set you free because that would interfere with your owner's right to a profit."

I have no financial connection to that store. I was only using the link as a source for the graph in question, which I could not find elsewhere.

Translation please?
Let's hope the moderators know latin (HINT: In Soviet Russia Latin speaks you)
Before Bell got busted they stopped forcing you to rent phones due to a lawsuit they lost.
BMP is open and documented.
TCMP. Once again, reality imitates xkcd.
Yes, but someone with a driver's license probably isn't a complete n00b at it.
