Which rulings concerning copyright in Oracle vs Google? To my knowledge there has not been a ruling yet concerning this subject and I don't recall seeing one on groklaw.

Incorrect: the judge in this case rejected all the other patents Apple brought in... This was not for a preliminary injunction, that case is still pending in Germany and probably will be hugely influenced by this outcome...
Before "W" got into office, Texas as considered cool and people actually wanted TX memorabilia in Europe.
I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but it never was...

This may or may not be an uphill battle for them.
Under track conditions (with one of those jackasses pushing the pedal to the floor), yeah, the mileage on the Tesla is probably going to be atrocious.
As for the rest, not sure who exactly takes Top Gear seriously. It's a fun show, but I don't really look at it for good car facts. Nor should anyone else.
Believe me, as a car manufacturer, you should take the impact of Top Gear seriously, very seriously...
Considering the mileage: The Roadster looks like a sportscar... that's not what I would call a car that invites to economic driving... to the contrary...
Ah well... it's an US company, why look at your own problems if there's a possibility of suing someone else...
You can get 20Mbps ADSL2 (unlimited) for somewhere around €20 in the Netherlands, cable goes for a minimum of something like €50 (including (digital) TV and telephone, internet speed will be somewhere in the same region in that case) so the problem is still (partially) the ISP.
It's always the same with the US, they think they're way ahead but in reality they're lagging ages behind
Within half a year I'll have the possibility of a 100/100 Mbit/s connection (actually I picked the 50/50 solution, don't need more at the moment). Within a year it will be possible to get a 200/200 connection. All unlimited...
And the Netherlands are not even leading the bandwidth race...
In my opinion I can't see why consumers need higher speeds than this, I never reach the max speed because the sending end doesn't, exept using usenet.
Luckily not everyone is as shortsighted as you are...
And when using usenet my single SATA drive can hardly keep up.
Check your hardware, copying files from my home server goes with a speed that's at least 500 Mbit... Let me guess your internal network is only 100Mbit...
I think the fast speeds being offered now by the cable ISPs here is to proof to our government they don't need to invest in fiber networks and let the market take care of itself
What fast speeds. 10Mbit up is NOT enough... maybe for the coming 1 or 2 years but after that it's probably no longer enough.... and that 10Mbit up I only get when I take the most expensive subscription. I want a symmetric connection.
CAI Harderwijk is just a small provider with probably a relatively new network. UPC and Ziggo all have networks that are largely more than 20 years old with all the age problems included. Theoretically they will be able to do the same, practically not...
In the neighbourhood where I live, there will be fiber next year and I predict a marginalization for UPC in the coming years around here...They just won't be able to keep up...
A country that now allows city mayors to issue search warrants without aproval from a judge and even without any prior suspicion of criminal activity. A country that is slowly making sure that we are never anonymous anywhere.
Nonsense, in the Netherlands a search warrent is not issued by the city mayor...
A country that is slowly making sure that we are never anonymous anywhere.
As is every other country in the world if it's citizens have any freedom left...
That's not the main cause. In the early days, whey you heard a song you liked, you had to buy the album (if it wasn't released as a single). Now, if you hear a song you like, you buy that track on iTunes and ignore the rest of the album...
I guess you all can do the accounting yourselves...
That took you a long time to come to that conclusion...
I'm sure the CoS will explain why their detractors are "like Nazis" oppressing religious freedom, their speech thus outlawed - enjoy that hurdle.
Except that the CoS is considered not to be a religion in Germany.
There is a small problem with the French regarding the Tour: They're not thrustworthy in their judgement. If Floyd Landis had been named Richard Virenque the tests would probably have mysteriously disappeared. I'm not saying that he didn't cheat, but the French are very often using double standards regarding cycling...
I guess it has something to do with Armstrong winning the tour 7 times in a row which their own heroes Anquetil and Hinault never could...
Would it be possible to wipe them both of the face of the earth?
