On ebooks...they can keep that up, but people like me will just start buying physical copies again. I mean, I love the convenience of having a library everywhere I go. That doesn't mean it's worth paying more than paperback prices for a license to read on a specific platform that can be arbitrarily revoked at the whim of the company with no real recourse.

Wait, wait, wait...is this "someonewhocares"? I started using that hosts list YEARS ago! Easily one of the most comprehensive lists of advertising URLs I've ever found. I wouldn't be surprised if others built their lists off of that one.

That would seem to indicate that it's used (relatively) correctly here. The defendant would need resources to attempt to refute the judge's verdict. Just because they have resources, though, doesn't mean they'll win their appeal. The verdict may get the "salute" of approval or it may be overturned. One might even go so far as to say that the judge and his verdict are interchangeable in this context.

This is the first accurate explanation I've seen.

At low levels, the JUDGE is the law, unless the defendant has the resources to run the judge up the flagpole. In this case, the guy is probably going to serve his time and the tell the story of how he was f*ed by the system for the rest of his life, further degrading faith in the system and further diminishing the likelihood that anyone will bother to invest time and resources in fixing it.

Sometimes, in order to grow a business to a sustainable level, some losses must be taken. Once the necessary growth is achieved, the business can modify its model to become sustainable.

There's a difference between a toolbar and a menu bar.

the menu options that I loved in 2003. I hate the ribbon. It's nowhere near as intuitive as the very simple menus. I don't need or want icons on my menu bar.

Yeah, I'm pushing most of our users that way, but there aren't any thinclients that do triple monitor, afaik.

Probably 5-10% of my work is web-based. The rest is done via remote desktops...but I often have 5-10 RDP sessions running at a time...

if he had just created a restore partition on each of the hard drives. The issue is in providing separate physical media. Had the systems been sold "intact", meaning wiped of all personal information but with HDD partitions in place, there would have been no copyright infringement. He had a great plan but poor execution; he left himself open, and now he will have to pay the price...sad but true.

Perhaps, then, a service that combines both streaming and offline play will be best for you.

Unless you purchase it through a service that could go out of business and you lose your device and/or backups of that media. Spotify is a great example of the best of both worlds. You set up your library, download the songs, and take them wherever you want. For roughly the cost of 2/3 of an album per month, you have access to the entire Spotify library without concern of theft or device/media failure. As long as you have Internet access you can recover your library. Seems like a fair deal and a fair compromise that ensures media creators are compensated for their work.
