my folks, older than yours, also have their tech..... that doesnt mean they get how every detail works. there is no blanket statement here, but it is largely true that those who grew up with black and white tvs will not see things the same

generally extradition treaties, out of common sense, require something to be illegal in both jurisictions. World powers are pretty much on the same page when it comes to money laundering. Following the money, as they say. Your dutch coffees

we called it ripping when it was just audio cds with no drm whatsoever, if im not mistaken. the dmca makes it illegal for you to distribute drm-circumvention tools with some exceptions, but it does not make it illegal for an individual to m

this is a good example of the tragedy of the commons, if i am not mistaken. Why should one person save when it doesnt make ameasurable difference, the probblem, the tragedy being that everone thinks this way and the effect compunds. sort of

yet somehow, despite the hacker-unfriendlyness, the iphone and whatnot have been a huge success..... jailbreaking atv2 units seems tobe pretty dead simple compared to the rest.... a weird one is remote hd sold for iphone ipad........ but re

i simply would not buy them, not where i need a general purpose computer. but when i bought my ipad, iphon, etc, i was fully aware of what i was getting for my money, so i cant whine about it. i am no fan of lockdown, but im also capable

They also, like any other CA, have the ability to generate keys in your name any time they like. That would have consequences - but so would abusing your private key. If it's for something where it's that much of a concern (and it IS a legi

Musthave been big. Theyd have to be anchored somehow though..... There is no stable equilibrium for ferromagnetic materials.

And those, i think, are just from the fixed magnets (which may be a type of superconducmting electromagnet thats just normally on.). During a scan, dont mangetic fields go way way up? The fixed ones are just there for stability and whatnot

They are diamagnetic i believe (so is water' very weakly so. - google for levitating frogs for a laugh.) Diamagnetic materials create an equal field to what they are exposed to... Causing repulsion. In the case of superconducting, the fie

I must be missing your point... please explain. "I can’t distribute my program without also distributing its sources if it contains a copyleft component." Well that's perfectly fair if that's what the original author wants. If you want to
