I hate those cameras so much. I wouldn't mind them so much if the road was permanently 50, but 50-70-50-70-50-70 with cameras in between is just pure ass-hole.

What kind of grade A moron would make a car brake to match a speed limit? It'll just turn the engine off to slowly reduce speed.
The Swedish Millitary is forbidden by law to interfere in civilian matters ever since a protest got bloody about 80 years ago.
The Airport in Paris has the same thing, only a bit worse since you can't pay the fee in the airport because the doors are completely automated, had to travel all the way back to Paris and then to the airport again, good thing I had plenty of time!
The A-Train monopoly has been deemed to be a really bad deal for the government in retrospect.
As long as you don't charge money the goverment will never confuse you with a taxi, don't worry.
It's not the airport charging that fee. The railroad to Arlanda is one of the only private rails in Sweden in a deal where the builder, A-Train (Arlanda Express) would get monopoly on rail traffic to the airport for 40 years.
They probably won't change the name because they've been tremendously successful politically with this name.
The reason that they're named The Pirate Bay is because in 2001 the entertainment industry set up something called 'The Anti-Pirate Bureau". In response activists set up "The Pirate-Bureau" and later "The Pirate Bay" as well as "The Pirate Party".
They've been so successful at taking over this word that the Anti-Pirate Bureau recently had to give up and change their name to 'The Rights Alliance" because being anti-pirate doesn't work politically.
Doesn't Steam hook into Metacritic? Just rate all the games over there.
The point is that it doesn't make them better bankers. Specifically a psychopathic banker will instead of help you make more money, help your money get into his pocket.
The problem isn't their attraction to money, it's their medical inability to give a shit about anyone else.
You already mention the solution, why be silly about it? Just watermark the images and hand them out as jpegs, not photoshop files.
You could obviously watermark each individual layer if you wanted to give the photoshop files, but why would you want to do that?
As far as I can tell, LTE patents were never made FRAND, and it's unlikely that the telecommunications industry will do FRAND again. Apple pissed in the FRAND pool and now noone is interested in being friendly anymore.
Indeed. This is not particularly surprising.
However the solution is fairly simple, you just get some registered organisation to sponsor the project.
The feds won't come after him, 30 days or otherwise, because as far as they are concerned, bitcoins are not money.
It goes the other way around. "Oh, so you're doing transactions for more then $1000? We'll shut you down then".
Well, they'd rather not get raided by the IRS. I don't think I blame them, I wouldn't want to get raided by the IRS either.
