On the one hand, yes, people must be paid for their work.

But on the other hand, the people who actually -did- the work in this case are not the ones setting the price, and they are not the ones getting the money. Music creators don't see a nickle of licensing, most of the time.

If an Applebees in Podunk Nebraska plays a Hendrix song, does his estate or his heirs get the money? Or is it some conglomerate that acquired the rights in a hostile takeover 20 years ago? Yep, the conglomerate.

And a quick reminder, the owner of the Podunk Applebees is not the one who ultimately pays for that license fee. YOU are. Because costs are passed on to the customer.

Thus we have a situation where people are being gouged for license fees and the musicians are still getting nothing.

Things are never as easy as one might hope.

We already have a system - not perfect, but ok - for dealing with academic fraud. This kind of tricks should be considered on the same level as falsifying data, or bribing peer reviewers. Huge mark against the guy, making sure his career ends there.

Dreaming of getting 30% of photoshop sales prices instead of 20 bucks for the os messed up a lot of their strategy. Of course it was unrealistic from the start but led to win8 and winrt and everything after that.

You mean the JFK documents that were released containing hundreds of social security numbers of federal employees? Not exactly a glowing recommendation.

Due to a disability, I can only type with my right hand. It definitely slows my typing. But, I have learned to work around this. For example, I use "sticky keys" which lets me type Shift, Ctrl, Alt, and release those keys. so, Ctrl+C is typed by pressing Ctrl then releasing it, then pressing C then releasing it. The regular way also works while "sticky keys" is enabled.

Well, basically yes, thsts where its going.

He can't let anyone use it for gov stuff anyway or cia gets to read whats on there.

But look euro countries are thinking of moving governance out of MS now too due to trump crossing the line publicly of ordering ms around.

Was anyone buying ipods in the latter years when they were just idevices without the phone and they just started making the smaller version of ipad anyway then.

Yes inherently its just running on the customers computer anyway, so they don't actually have control.

Not sending other players locations when not necessary etc would be cooler.

And you can cheat by off-device means anyway, you can do an aimbot that doesn't run any code on the computer now.

Wow came out like a decade after my bank at the time had 2fa.

Sure at first it was over telnet and phone lines so it wasn't terribly secure at first..

To teach you don't need massive amounts of content, lessons don't need to be superfacially unique at all, they're scalable on their own.

The need to make new books for schools etc every year is based just on the need to sell them too, basics of languages do not change every year, a student doesn't benefit from unlimited amounts of basic class learning material.

I think the point of the "study" is that those who get UBI continue employed work, refuting a common claim that much of the population would quit working.

Does it really matter?

To the extent people do quit working, there is more work to do, allowing those who want more luxuries to get another job and earn extra money for that.

I have doubts about this study. I believe it does not study the reality of an economy with a UBI (emphasis on "universal" ... everyone gets it). things could be very different in such an economy. maybe they then need to study how it effects 122 people not getting a UBI.

i would call it a misstudy. how would a UBI affect behavior in an economy that is not getting virtually any UBI. a true study would provide a UBI to the entire income earning aged population to correctly see how the study group behaves in a UBI affected economy.

Did Biden have the mental capacity to understand wealth?

he said "trump".

Like the Japanese do?
