This just sounds like they build a range extender for the key fob, allowing the fob to be MUCH farther away from the car than it would normally have to be. This is nice to allow access to the car and to get it started, but once you've driven the car out of range of the (range-extended) fob, you'll never get the car started again. Maybe it doesn't matter if they're just taking the car to a chop shop. Still scary, though.

No, the GPL is a license. The creator of the work retains the copyright.
then the equivalent of "jamming in a penny" should be safe and effective
Except that the "eFuse" is inside one of the ICs, probably one of the processors, and is completely inaccessible. Since you won't be able to modify the code that checks the state of the fuse AND you can't physically "jam a penny" into the fuse, you're still shit out of luck.
Losing credit card numbers or bank account numbers for large groups is bad; losing email addresses is not.
Losing email addresses is not AS BAD as losing more sensitive information, but it is still not good. I, for one, wouldn't be happy about that information being exposed.
It seems that the ASCAP should be going after the RIAA so that artists can actually make money on music recordings again. Forget about free. People are willing to pay for music, but even when they do, how much do the artists actually get anyway? Not much, if anything.
I'm sorry, my "Disable sigs" preference has completely cloaked your sig.
Actually, it was used as a noun. According to the wiktionary, "scours" is described as "diarrhea in horses and cattle caused by intestinal infection." That sounds about right.

You missed your chance, dude. You should have said: Mod parent over 9000, Insightful.

Forget "rebooting." What they need to do is to combine franchises. I'm anxiously awaiting the Alien vs. Terminator movie, myself. Its set in the future after the Terminators have wiped out all of the humans. Tag line: Alien vs. Terminator: Who ever wins, we're already dead, so we don't give a fuck anymore. It's going to be huge!
Given how important a functioning judiciary is to society, jury service really ought to be better rewarded, so competent people don't have such a strong incentive to get out of it.
Even if I did want to serve on a jury (I've never been given the opportunity), one or the other of the lawyers would probably reject me as a juror. Its widely known that they don't want smart, well-informed people on the jury so that their bullshit can work better.
Don't be absurd. Even the lowliest code would know that it is "#define" and not "#DEFINE" and that there is NO equals sign! Gah!
I don't understand your medical analogy. Please restate in the form of a car analogy. Thanks!
