Or, I could have just looked it up.
Health care, banking, ethanol, energy, insurance. There are ISPs in his top 100, but they are pretty far down the list.
Thune used to lobby for and had received campaign funding from the railroad industry. This seems a bit at odds with his recent hard pushing for the Keystone XL pipeline, though, so the railroads may not be as much of an influence on him as they once were.
...this one isn't as good as the original. Still, "Extortionists at Law 2: Steele & Hansmeierer" has a nice ring to it.
But the solution would be to prove that is or isn't.
How? Is this another case like the Saltmarsh document from Prenda lore?
Truman was a Democrat. Not that it matters much, both parties are different from what they were then.
...government regulation helped bring electricity and the POTS to rural communities and farms in places like Jones County, SD, where Thune spent his formative years. Thune has made most of his political hay claiming to represent the rural citizens of SD; appearing at farm shows, pointing to his ranch-land upbringing, and so on. He ought to know better than to dismiss regulation out of hand.
Still, South Dakota has been very 'company friendly' more recently, for better or worse. Hopefully, though, he can be convinced that this is one of those 'for worse' cases.
...it's just an executive summary. And everybody knows that you can't derive any real information from metadata.
It seems like we are trending towards an argument saying that "he who set the trap/trigger/timer owns the copyright."
And, I think I can live with that, but I suppose there's other issues. What if I train a monkey to take pictures? What if that trained monkey is no longer in my custody/care but he takes a picture?
I think he's talking about a Google search he performed during the previous hearing with Espinel. And, as has been pointed out, Google search results for him may have been different for anyone else performing the same search. I've also never visited TPB, so I've no idea if his description ever reflected what the site offered, but it doesn't sound very likely, and it would seem that he has not recently attempted to see if any "improvements" have been made.
His Google search experience may have been as he described it, but everything after that is BS.
If the NYPD is so technologically impaired, they should consult with Walter O'Brien and his Scorpion outfit.
Is it possible for me to send one so I can claim that I've received -1 NSLs?
...damn that Al Gore.
Once upon a time, before I ever had a networked computer, I received some unsolicited neo-nazi propaganda. It's true! I couldn't believe it, either. But, there it was, plain as day, among the daily paper, bills and junk mail in that day's mail.
And then I suppose we'll have to do what is being done now. When the provider starts making us (the customers) subsidize crap shows/channels, cut the cord. On the internet, there's almost always an alternative.
And I don't think this would go over well with the anti-GMO crowd, either. Space exploration is the only application I can think of off of the top of my head, but that's not very profitable.
But that's the problem! Officials elected from hyper-partisan districts aren't willing to compromise on anything because their constituency demands that they don't (and they likely won their election by saying that their opponent compromised too often or at all).
Eh, gads. I mean Chuck Lorre, not Lorne Michaels.
This show is about people who are too smart but lack social skills and can do things that people with social skills can't even understand.
A premise also found in The Big Bang Theory. The difference being that Lorne Michaels isn't also claiming that he could spearhead the next breakthrough in physics if only you just paid him enough.
Of course, you are free to watch whatever you please. I enjoyed Burn Notice, even though I'm sure it contained absolutely no correlation with the real life activities of covert operatives.
But I couldn't find any BestNetTech articles published on September 22, 2104.
Re: Sorry
If Thune isn't careful, he may end up getting the same reputation as Daschle, who wasn't able to shake the perception that he was toeing the party line as opposed to the interests of his constituents.
I've mentioned this before, but he'd also do well to remember that government regulation helped bring electricity and phone service to many rural areas in SD at a time when European countries like France and Germany were miles ahead of the US in that regard, and the industry wasn't competitive enough to make the investment worthwhile.
