Where are all the dash cam videos of the event? Oh wait, that is right, it didn't happen in Russia.

The article begins:

I think this could just be amended to "For a group of scientists this is a daunting endeavor." Of course scientists attached to a legal institution can probably draw on the help of other resources and people who know how to jump through some of these hoops. But they still have to deal with the same legal issues.

That isn't true. ownership doesn't "ceased to exist" When a company goes bankrupt, it has assets that pass on to someone. No computer software copyright has "effectively lapsed" Of course that doesn't mean we know who owns the copyright. Many times a corporation might even know they own the copyright.

So you've determined that no one can create a limited edition something? If I want to paint a single painting and sell it, it is ok for you to copy it, because fuck me for not distributing more copies?
I'm all for archiving the software. And the whole abondonware sucks, but just blindly copying and sharing isn't the answer.

It isn't an accident. The Representatives represent the people. The Senators represent the states. If you didn't have a system like this, then the Dakotas would essentially be at the Californians mercy.
The accident would be to get rid of this system.

Because they consider it offensive. Not because they can't say it. Self censorship isn't the same thing as government censorship.

What exactly is "racist behavior?" And why should it be punished? Or are you just trying to tell people how they should think?

Wish it was a bit easier to find the actual text. It would have also been cool to see the pages side by side. But still this is way cool.

You don't think the VERY first book that was EVER printed is worth saving? No matter whether you agree with the content, the book itself is part of our history (the content has also done a ton to shape our history as well)

The IMAGES are copyrighted... The images are fairly new. The text in the images not so much. But you are right, people don't even what it is anymore.

I though the problem is, they want to make solar power more expensive.

A friend of mine asked me if I wanted a "free" car. He is leasing a Lead for $200 a month, about the same amount of money he was paying for gas.

IF you are relying on the grid for power when the sun isn't shinning, you are NOT net zero, and you are paying for your power. Those people who don't have solar, (or wind, or a hydro electric dam) pay for power. If you have excess power, the electric company buys it. If you need power, you buy it. Why should the electric company essentially get $5 of free power a month?
The subsidy is a government subsidy, has nothing to do with the electric company or this fee.

FTS:

Crime rate has increased, but they are PLANNING on taking steps to prevent crime? Well apparently they are only planning, because if they started, their prevention hasn't worked.
I'm not sure what this mention of "planning to prevent crimes" has to do with the actual situation, which is the courts are being more lenient on drug crimes.

When you say "slowly killing them" do you mean they are making more money than they've ever made before, and that the annual profits continue to grow from year to year? Then, uhm, yeah...
