It'll be like the gold rush, stake a claim, file it with the regulating agency, shoot anyone that trespasses.

It's not, unless you disagree with the ends the lobbyist is lobbying for.

For what it is worth, about half way through this school year my daughters school (and presumably all US schools) had to start following new healthy eating guidelines imposed by the government. http://www.fns.usda.gov/cnd/governance/legisl

Yes, but it won't keep the gmail labels etc. And I doubt it would do a restore to gmail.

I think he was trying to be subtly ironic. Perhaps too subtle.

I believe that while you cannot sue for monetary damages for infringement of a copyright work unless it is registered, you can sue to halt the infringement and have any infringing work seized/destroyed etc. Otherwise the first part where

Err... He is talking about Google having access to your files, not whoever else you choose to share them with. Any company that deals with sensitive data probably already does not use any sharing service. If necessary you could write a cust

When I following the link you posted I get the new pricing page. It is just taking them awhile to propagate the stuff to all their servers. Give it another ten-twenty min and try again.

Mine said that also, until about 2 min ago. It now points to a different page with the new pricing.

No idea on the stats, but there have been a few high profile incidents in the news in the last several years. For awhile police officers have been attempting to apply a personal right to privacy to their on-duty activities.

I didn't see a specific supremacy clause in the text of the bill, so probably that will happen, then the state will have to go back in a couple years and amend this to say that the state law overrides any municipal law.

Rocks with enough metal ores to be useful and in sizes that can make it through re-entry with a useful quantity of material left tend to do other undesirable things, like smash stuff, just ask the dinosaurs.

I've read for hours on end on everything from a Palm IIIxe(Back-lit 160x160 grey-scale) and Palm T|X(320x480 color LCD) to a Kobo(e-Ink) and an iPad2. I've had no problems with any of them.

There's also a Kobo app for iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, and I believe there may be a Linux beta floating around, or maybe not.

Interesting. Since I believe the underlying data for market share is for US re-sales of the hardware I would be interested in how adding international data would fare. Kobo is a Canadian company as is rumored to have a significant share of

I haven't tried the Chrome(or Firefox) extension(s), just the bookmarklet javascript that Pocket provides here: http://getpocket.com/welcome?b=Bookmarklet I'll have to give the extensions a try when I get a chance.

...plus I think it says "...for two years" or something to that effect.

OK, I think the bookmarklet/text scraper needs a little tweeking. I just tried Pocket's bookmarklet vs. Instapapers's on the "How Microsoft Fought True Open Standards" article that is also on the Hacker News front page. Pocket mis-identifie

For textual stuff I use instapaper and let calibre fetch an epub and drop it on my eReader. I may have to sign up for pocket for the non text stuff, especially once I upgrade phones in August. Edit: Actually I just noticed I can "Pocket" so

Contact your own politicians and have them put pressure on your version of what we call the "State Department" to in turn pressure the US to stop this crap. If you indeed think this particular bill is crap, of which I remain unconvinced (se

as far as I'm concerned every official, elected or not, of every country in the world is a useless nuisance (some would call them a necessary evil, that's up for debate). I'll split the difference with you, they are useless evil.

In the interest of discussion I up voted you, not sure who is down voting. Just out of curiosity, where in the bill does it suggest they could, by virtue of this bill, monitor anyone's connection. To me the bill seems to be about the sharin

For what it is worth, you can also read the text of the bill there. Having done so (it is only 11 pages), I'm not convinced this is a "negative" bill.

The bill is only 11 pages and is a fairly easy (for legislation) read. My initial pass through the bill I'm having trouble seeing what is wrong with it. This bill seems to simply allow federal intelligence agencies who are already collectin
