I guess you majored in "pedantry", with honors.
What "Authors have right to be paid for their work" means is that if other people want to use the result of their work, the authors can ask payment in return.
Ofcourse you fully understand what was meant, but thought treating another person like a moron would make you feel superior. Enjoy your fuzzy feelings.
How accurate does Cardboard track head movement?
Note that head displays have been done many times before over the past decades.
The problem has always been motion sickness inducing head tracking, never the display technology.
The ruling is a German ruling, not a European ruling (Europe has it's own court).
German rulings do not apply to Europe or any part of Europe other than Germany.
We're not talking about breaking into an author's house, stealing a transscript and copying it many times. We're talking about buying a legitimate copy from the author and passing that single, original medium along to somebody else.
Authors have right to be paid for their work. They do not have a right to be paid for paying customers selling the customers' property.
I for one am constantly aching for a CLI that can play musical notes. It's an essential feature and one I cannot possibly do without.
If they voluntarily pool their resources to protect themselves, that is libertarianism.
Sounds like "maffia" to me.
If the voluntary pool becomes large enough, we call it "government".
Libertarianism is one of those things that only works in small groups (and then only helps that small group), but fails on a nation-wide scale.
Kinda like how marxism works in small communes but turns into communism when applied on a nation-wide scale.
Reading the Wikipedia article, it doesn't seem all that negative.
There are some negative details in there, but these are simple facts, stated in a short and factual manner.
If you don't want people to know of your extortion practices, then either don't extort people or do a better job at it so you don't get convicted for it in a public court.
Being legally right does not mean being morally right in the eyes of those who pay your bills.
Agreed.
Thinking "What would be the most retarded way to do this?" and finding the answer is exactly what they did, is very intuitive.
Newsflash; not every Windows 8 user is a system administrator.
It's even worse that the cops didn't escalate the issue after two days had passed and they were running out of time.
Problem #2: Liability
In my country, the owner of a router can be held liable for the data transmitted throught it. If some anonymous user uses an open WiFi connection to download child pornography or hacks the pentagon servers, the owner of the router can be held atleast partly responsible. I don't know about regulations in the USA, but I'd damn well make certain the law protects the owner of a router before advising them to open up the connection.
What's your point?
There is a lot of stuff not everyone knows.
Should we only study things everyone already knows?
Should news only be reported if everyone already knows?
According to this page: http://www.economicmodeling.co...
At the very best, females make up 30.4% of IT graduates.
The workforce is 35% female, so on average females are more likely to be hired for IT positions than men.
How about unemployment rates for female and black tech workers?
Given the outrage I would expect atleast 35% of the unemployed tech workers being female and atleast 1% being black,.
It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
