It's also about power. Remember that thing you used to just be able to do without government involvement... well, about that. Now you have to jump through these hoops. JUMP BOY JUMP! Ohhh, who's a good boy! If you keep being good we'll let you keep on doing that thing you were doing!

The media really makes it seem like nothing happens on the darknet other than child porn and terrorism. It's fitting that they really push this at a time when a more usable darknet should be very attractive to most people. Your IP address, cookies, device ID, browswer ID, OS ID, various logins are all being cross referenced. Your professional work 'searches' are going to be put in a pile with the rest of 'it'.

Are you sure you wouldn't be promoted to president of the company for your clear ability to disregard policies?

That doesn't make sense. Sure, be more efficient, but don't aim to lower usage. Readily available energy is how we advance. Focus on making electricity cleaner and more efficiently. This is the equivalent of throttling progress.

Womyn can have penises too! /s....jw

Rhapsody also has a decent aac option.

This. I could care less about Pao, but please stop censoring the site and distorting the voting system.

I spend entirely too much time on reddit, and it doesn't seem like they can even put together a clear message about what they are mad about. It's turned from a few people that had really good reasons at the beginning to a "Pao must go!!!" Circlejerk.

I'm just reiterating what we were taught in an intellectual property course as part of an internship. They have to make reasonable efforts to protect their trademark. If they got lazy in the future every single instance like this one where they did not take any action would be used against them.

Exactly. Like I said, they won't win, but they are obligated to at least send the letter.

They have to make a reasonable effort to prevent genericide. This would fall under that, because they are using IMAX to describe a large format theater and not an IMAX. They could need cases like this in the future if someone wants to claim that IMAX willfully let their trademark become generic.

It's trickier than that. You can go ahead and use IMAX however you want, but IMAX is compelled to send you a cease and desist to show that they are actively protecting their trademark. They can't win in this case, but they are obligated to ask.

Can we please get lightbulbs banned already, or at least tax them so that the candlemaking industry is compensated? Maybe horsebreeder and wagon makers should get a cut of car sales? Since when was it the government's job to protect corporate profits? I mean, guys, at least pretend...

Why add that last line in? The story is informative and damning enough. You shit it all up.

This makes sense. About my only gripe would be reboot timers instead of "Seriously, I'll reset when it's a good time for me and not a moment sooner."
