I would mod this "Funny" but my auto-correct substituted "F***ing genius"
Demand keeps it in existence.
Really, I don't agree with copyright infringement in all cases, but why should I have to pay for cable AND HBO just to watch Game of Thrones?
Because it costs over $1M dollars per episode to produce it. So if you want something to watch that's better than Sharknado then somebody needs to be paying for it. That said, anything more than 28 years old is out of copyright according to the original Constitution, so I have a hard time understanding why it still has 70 years or so of restrictions.
I had no idea Blockbuster was still in business.
But some of us would be happy if the now often unreadable magnetic records from 70 years ago would have been stored on something more durable.
Because those TPS reports will make great reading?
Read the complaint. The business was shut down because it had a legal game promotion; it didn't run an internet gambling site.
The Patriot Act clearly refers to stopping terrorism. That doesn't change the fact that it is primarily used to go after drug crimes.

Is it really a robot if it doesn't fulfill a practical purpose? Robot is derived from a word meaning "slave" because it does work in place of a person. If it is unable to do work, by conjoining AI with mobility, does it really fit the bill? What makes a windmill not a robot? What makes a drill not a robot?
Android: sure, robot: I'm not convinced.
The origin of the word robot is from art! It comes from the story R.U.R. by Karel Capek. So complaining that these are not robots because they are art is iron(ic).
"the undercover investigator brought Crawford X-ray tubes to examine for possible use in the weapon, followed by their technical specifications a month later.
Hmm.. wonder whose idea this whole plot was. We've only heard one side so far.
Well, I hope that he manages to keep good relations with the natives or they will turn the tables on him. He had better have a backup strategy for this transaction.
He outer join the local Chamber of Commerce.
For actual work and play I use windows. Everything works best on it.
Every now and then I boot into the latest linux distro currently in favor and give it a spin. And I've always ended up disappointed.
How do you do something as basic as copy a file securely to another computer? I use scp on Linux.
A Java fork would be great.
Get control away from shitbags like Oracle over to some kind of foundation. Get rid of the fucking Ask toolbar spyware, improve the platform more quickly, etc.
A fork wouldn't help since Oracle is asserting copyright on the API, not the code.
