Stock photo sites have their uses, but I can't help but get the vibe that they absolutely need some form of control placed upon them - especially with some of the shit Getty et-all does.
You sound like someone who likes to blindly assume, no matter how silly you may look.
I am a recent college grad, and both recognize, and embrace the benefits of assembly AND C where it makes sense (merely that I wouldn't necessarily use assembly for some things, and would use it for others) - not all people are the same.
Las time I tried a veggie burger, 13 years ago, I remember the experience being awful. Seriously, my throat closed off while trying to swallow that shit.
From what I heard, Beyond Meat, and Impossible Burger, while still being different from beef, are signs that the industry came leaps and bounds since those years, and I am really tempted to try them.
and ill advised maintenance short cuts breaking things.
You cannot reasonably blame the DC-10, or McDonnell-Douglas for crashes caused by maintenance shortcuts airlines performed despite their (MDD's) disapproval (such as the shortcut that caused the metal fatigue that brought down American 191), that'd be quite absurd.
While I don't agree with there being no copyright whatsoever (instead favoring drastic reductions in duration, and reductions in laws that seem to specially favor industries that abuse copyright), creativity existed before copyright - so the idea that it'd mean "no new content" at all IMO at least is patently absurd.
. The studios heard, and gave you more option. Now you dipshits are complaining about how there are too many channels to subscribe to.
Or, if you actually read the complaints, you'd actually know that the biggest issue is not the number of choices, but the exclusiveness - and INCREASING exclusiveness of content to just one platform or another?
Or, you can just act like smug ass, same-calling, and finding hypocrisies that don't exist.
If, in the future, airfravt engine parts and fuselages, etc, could be made up of graphene, how much lighter can aircraft get compared to now, with the materials we have now? And what impact would that have on fuel burn, and how much work the engines need to do to push the aircraft?
Wasn't that also in part due to airlines being told where they could fly, and what they could charge for flying those routes? In that case, wouldn't comparing regulation era to regulating just things like legroom/pitch a bit disingenuous?
They were using the pokemon name and likenesses, if Nintendo, or game freak didn't come out to say, "Hey, knock that off" then they can't claim the trademark anymore.
That's not how it works.
Otherwise, for instance, companies who have lax policies wouldn't be able to go after infringers because of people fan-gamers and modders - SEGA, VALVe, etc, are clearly able to do this.
How many of these other applications that use similar installers have such vulnerabilities (irrespective of program, or the platform they run on)? This is a trend I'm seeing a lot, "installers" that download the program, rather than just installing them.
Theft is theft, yellow is yellow, potatoes are potatoes, and blowjobs are blowjobs,what's your point? We're talking about copyright, and copyright infringement here.
He is talking about, I think, plugs whose designs are such where if you needed to plug it in to a power strip, you needed to fit it in on one end, or else you're covering up one or more other outlets in the strip (and as a result unable to use said plugs).
Seriously, why couldn't they design the plug to take up vertical space, and not horizontal space?
Technology that gives people some form of their voice back is great - and something I hope can continue to be refined, improved (maybe eventually develope a device that is small enough to put in the body that does the work that external devices currently do?). ALS Ice Bucket Challenge co-founder Pat Quinn lost his voice last year due to ALS, and worked with a group called Project Revoice - who used what limited audio they could find to make it so he sounded less like a "Stephen Hawking on steroids" and more like his old self, and I have to say, it is amazing - not perfect, but perfect enough where he can communicate not sounding robotic, but like himself. Hopefully, these organizations can keep going, as they provide a great service to these people, IMO.
Except, herr Anon, the problem is that it gives access to others' information about you, so if you don't post it, but it is on a device they have, they have access to that data. Rocket science, this is not.
There is literally no such thing as "copyright theft," and it is a stupid idea to call copyright infringement that (not only because it is factually wrong, but it sounds absurd - you don't seize the copyright by infringing on it).
We shouldn't act like people are idiots for not reading something incredibly lengthy, wordy, and worded in such a way where they would not understand it, and instead point the finger, at least partially, at the people who insist on keeping these wordy EULAs without providing something that explains it in plain English?
With all due respect, this attitude is part of the problem. It's not "getting over" that it happens, and continuing to raise a stink, IMO at least, that will eventually (with any luck, at least) get attention drawn to whether or not people in a position of power are being prosecuted when they commit a wrong (both legal and moral), and get things changed over time.

If so, would just using the German phrase "backpfeifengesicht" get around it? (literally means "a face in need of a punch/slap)

Now I can't get the image of someone attempting PARANOiA Survivor MAX on ONI with airplane rudder petals out of my head... 0__o
... would they hurt like hell if you stepped on them by accident?
Wait, are you really arguing "If she can prove she is innocent, she's guilty?"
... what the fuck are you smoking?

This false hypocrisy again... the issue is with increasing exclusiveness and fragmentation.

back when we had regulation tickets cost more.

Wait, I thought the guy didn't JUST FlightSim, but also flew IRL as well?

Technically, anecdotes are data; they are just not systematic data, and thus hard to use effectively for meaningful purposes.

It seems like a classic example of wiretapping, especially as it's done without the user's consent (EULAs notwithstanding).
Being in an EULA alone doesn't make it legal or un-challengable.
