I can't remember where I read it or the name of it, but just such a patent pool was founded a few years back and then the principals realized they could be making more money trolling. So they do. Using the patents in the pool.

The difference is this costs 40 € and can clear a couple of mines for that money. Afghanistan is not exactly rolling in cash, so any cheap improvement is a valuable addition to the toolbox - it provides a way for poor communities to do so

And one of those doesn't appear to be open-source - it's a job working with what appears to be a closed-source static analysis tool for identifying all the open-source code in an enterprise project so that you can guard against the vulnerab

Seriously?!? That jioop sound is another Hollywood lie? Man, I've about had it with those people. They really don't care about reality at all!

"When you add it all up, it just doesn't add up," Nelson said. "What reasonable person would take those items into an airport in this day and age?" Jesus wept. Benjamin Franklin gets the last, bitter laugh after all.

But the knife my proud fourteen-year-old daughter got for Christmas had to be thrown away. (A few years back.)

With a silencer, I guess. What do I know? I've never shot anything nor do I plan to - but it seems a silencer would be quieter than a dog that was still dying of poison two days later.

I'm actually not sure about that. If they need quiet, they'd shoot the dog quietly - but apparently the dogs had not yet all died by the time the interview was held, so they were alive far, far longer than could possibly be of any benefit

If you ask me (married 23 years), it's because people get married for the wrong reasons. They get married because society expects them to get married, nobody tells them that spending a lot of time with another human being is really, really

Good Lord, these are like fun little programming potato chips. Update: Aaaaaand then they get to be fun big potato chips.

Dude, I'm from Indiana and it's what they call themselves . I know what the term means to you people from cities, but come on, is that even real? Why?

Plus whoever won would still have to continue cleaning up Bush's mess while not ticking off the Teabaggers too much - an impossible task. There are a couple of halfway non-insane Republicans who are sharpening their blades for 2106 - I'd sa

My family has used Colgate toothpaste since the 60's. Do you really look to advertising to decide on toothpaste choices?

I think the downvote is for the attitude. Your edit didn't help. Are the lurkers supporting you in email yet?

Sure, you should be polite to the Mafia, too - that's an awful nice shop you have here. But in this case, I was polite. I don't need to be added to their do not call list. Indiana and the United States have do not call lists that it is

That may also have had something to do with long distance charges that, in today's dollars, were roughly five thousand dollars a minute (to hear my parents talk about calling my friends in the next town, anyway).

Ha, a couple of years ago I got one of those calls every day - finally I told them it was illegal, I was on the don't-call list at both the state and federal levels, and they should stop immediately. The manager I talked to actually told

Huh. They've picked up over $50K as I've been watching. I think they'll make it, at this point - they're over $700K.
