I love their service. Many of the games which I still had CD-ROMs for I rebought. Even though I could configure DOSbox for each game on my own, They had the configurations optimized for each game plus a lot of the extras including manuals and other paperwork that came with the game.
That is what I mean. Pros and cons of each. What ifs... Learning of the effects on the environment is all important info. But to be attaching names of supporters or dissenters to promote the election of politicians does not belong
The point is stick to the topic you are being paid to teach your students. In biology, we don't need to be hearing about politicians whose policies increase global warming, will melt ice caps, and flood our coastal cities. And how other politicians seek to heal the land and save our planet.
I attended Plano Senior High School in Plano, TX in 1996 and we had our liaison officer who was loved by the students and the community and still is to this day. Google Search: Officer Arthur Parker
I did see him and another cop in action while at school once. A student came running out of the cafeteria with Officer Parker behind him. I then saw a squad car pull up on the far side of the gym building. An officer got out, pointed his gun. "DOWN ON THE GROUND!" Officer Parker then tackled him from behind. He was cuffed and taken into custody. I later found out that the arrested student was a dealer.
When I was in middle school, I was bullied and beaten up numerous times. Our liaison officer did not get involved with student-student squabbles unless a weapon or drugs were involved. That was the responsibility of the administrators of the school. We had internal and external suspensions and detentions.
Government involvement is a double-edged sword. You can have laws that benefit the people such as the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906. Or laws that benefit large corporations such as these state laws the ISP's are buying to prevent competition.
“This is, as you may already know, how real competition is supposed to work:”
And I wish it would work like that across all industries. The difference here is that Google had the resources necessary to fight against the incumbent ISP’s and force their hand. Entrepreneurial new comers in other industries that threaten the status quo may not have the resources to fight the baseless litigation of the big boys of that industry. Unfortunately, too often, instead of fighting in the marketplace, the incumbents launch baseless lawsuits knowing that the new comer cannot afford to defend themselves. And are thus forced to file bankruptcy.
And the tactic is nothing new. In the History Channel mini-series “The Men Who Built America” There is a conversation between J. P. Morgan and George Westinghouse. Westinghouse owns the patents for AC current, courtesy of Nicola Tesla.
J. P. Morgan: I here you won the Niagara contract. I taking you to court for patent infringement of AC current. George Westinghouse: Why spend millions of dollars on a case you know you will lose? J. P. Morgan: You don’t have the resources to defend yourself. George Westinghouse: What do you want? J. P. Morgan: You know the answer.
Right to repair must be solidified on the side of the user. John Deere is only the beginning. This expands to just about every industry out there. All these independent and third-party resale and repair business are all at risk of being shut down if the manufacturers go on the offensive. One major blow would be auto service and repair shops. Places like Driver's Edge, City Garage, or Pep Boys could all be shut down if the manufacturers put something in their cars that forces us to take them to authorized dealerships for service. Imagine an oil filter that uses DRM. It is only sold by the manufacturer to authorized dealerships. They require an activation which only the dealerships have the means to do so. So it would cost the consumers significantly more for service and lead to a massive unemployment surge.
