In other news, Iran took credit for the downing of this drone as well, saying they have already begun disassembling it and that 'Murica should be very afraid. Pictures have already appeared on the internet of Iranians holding cans of Ginger Ale and eating pancakes, showing their cunning ability to blend in with the indigenous population in order to get close enough to strike at the very heart of the imperialist dogs!

I heard North Korea did it

Comment Old ipod Shuffle cable... (Score 2) 663

Years ago i owned a 1GB iPod Shuffle... here in New Zealand it cost $75 (not too bad i thought).

Somehow the plug which goes into the audio plug on the Shuffle to charge it, broke... so i looked at replacement chargers... $60 from Apple (yes the player with charger was $75)

heres a picture of the charger if anyone isnt sure what i meant http://i.imgur.com/n8QEUwJ.jpg

I don't see how it's "entirely fan-made". Under current law, a translation of an audiovisual work's original script into another language is a derivative work.

At what point... lets take something famous... "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn"... at what point does copyright kick in? Maybe the whole thing? part of it? maybe "Frankly my dear, I don't give a"? or maybe "Frankly my dear?" or how about "Frankly"? What about if i changed it to "Honestly my dear, I don't give a damn"
