Money grabs which don't have to exist encourage piracy, so that's dumb.

If the entitled are the bureacrats, then yes. The "stupid things" were called "being elected/appointed".
Given the way things are going with wine and for openGL, we could be there already if it wasn't for generally abysmal support for linux drivers. I think Valve pointing out "hey, halflife runs equally well on linux when you freakin support it!" is about the only chance we have of having reasonably up to date linux gaming support in the future.
There is no US analog, because the US has no legitimate interest here. We're only involved because our government is more than happy to roll over for the MPAA.
There is no "Sexual fraud" here, and there is historical evidence of both the US being willing to break international law as needed for MPAA interests alongside the evidence that the swedish prosecutor is refusing to follow standard swedish procedures which were openly supported by Assange.
Please, he wouldn't have even been sentenced in sweden. They'd hold up his case in court for 5 years with no representation and then send him to the US to be awaiting charges forever.
I don't really understand; are you trying to imply that there are/aren't "power users"? About 50% of people who use phones are power users; it's nearly impossible to buy a low end phone.
Curious - is there any good reading material you could suggest regarding power sourcing/distribution/hvdc/grid power management of this kind? This sounds like an interesting thing to read about.
Reading comprehension is helpful. GP said getting more conservative AND voting against conservative. It's that the republican party isn't conservative as much as extremist; not that old age correlates to voting conservatively.
This is exactly correct, but the problem is what is the alternative? You're given the choice between a terrible choice and a worse terrible choice. Neither of those are things that should be supported.
This is hilariously incorrect. Money *works* short term, it doesn't work long term.
All you're saying is your parents are bad at beekeeping, sorry. It's called "anecdotal" evidence for a reason - it is solely your own. The reality is most people aren't as bad at beekeeping.
Big Media has never won. They were late to the game and cannot reverse history. They literally cannot win. Facts and history are not on their side, and this is no different.
This is hilariously dishonest.
Conventional taxis don't have to go out of business - that's a strawman/misnomer. Why don't they provide their own apps to provide service to riders? Oh, right. Uber is doing what taxi services refuse to in a lot of instances. Uber isn't the problem here, but old outdated legislation is.
Taxi services don't operate 24/7 with 100% coverage, that is and never can be the case anywhere. Meanwhile, uber is opening up to other competition and enabling better coverage than the taxi services themselves provide.
awww, a big government baby won't be able to keep playing fast and loose with breaking the law and using toys they can't handle responsibly!

Agreed.
I'd happily give up ESPN off sling to get something actually worthwhile. I haven't gone to ESPN even once on sling.
