I'm sorry, which government are you talking about? The UK hasn't had a copyright registration requirement since at least 1912 (possibly earlier), so there's no one alive who remembers when the requirement existed.

I guess the answer to my rhetorical question is a 'yes', then. You know, having a desktop or laptop computer is no excuse for not realising that not everyone has that option. Stupidity much?
[The atlas] is kind of weird as it isn't exactly representative of the county, it doesn't even show an actual road, what you see is the C&O canal tow path, where the mules that pulled the canal boats would walk, but is now used for biking and hiking (I do that a lot too). I understand what you're saying, but wouldn't the towpath also be shown on the maps, albeit as part of the canal?
Any CC licence with the Share-Alike provision, which states the following: If you alter, transform, or build upon this work, you may distribute the resulting work only under the same, similar or a compatible license.
I'd always assumed SA was "kind of like" the GPL -- if you include something with SA, it trips the licence for the whole. That would be my literal interpretation of the text too (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode), but maybe it's in lawyer-speak and doesn't say what I think it says? You're reading more into it than it actually says. As far as I remember it, the Share-Alike provision says that if you alter a licensed work, then you must at least license your adaptation under the same or similar terms, not whatever work that adaptation may be attached to as well. The GPL works the way it does because it was created for software, an entirely different beast. I would have thought using it in another work is an adaptation... this ruling suggests not? Common sense also says it. 'Adaptation' is just another way of saying 'alteration', not just in CC licences, but also in copyright statutes. So if the atlas publisher had Warholed the image, that would be adaptation, whereas publishing it the way they did isn't.
You mean laser printers make no sound at all? Because the inkjet printer I purchased in 2010 only had an audible hum whilst doing its thing, most unlike the screeching chatterboxes I used to use in school.
I read it in its entirety the first time. Tim doesn't give a date for the forum post that actually references the bricked printers, and whilst he does follow the 2011 (not 2013) forum post with So, it appears that if you attempt to forcefeed a Xerox printer not-from-around-here ink, it will potentially brick the device. that followup cannot reasonably be extrapolated from the quoted forum post without further information being given by the OP.
The region-locked ink cartridges is old, the bricking of printers requiring a callout of an expensive technician is new. You'd have realised that if you'd read the entire article.
[...] (3) that statements attributed to an unnamed source were, in fact, made by an unnamed source [...] Technically, an 'unnamed source' is a source whose name hasn't been disclosed, wherever along the line that lack of disclosure occurs. So James Risen could have known his source's name and they would still be an unnamed source because Risen himself didn't name them.
[...] sensitive records are already protected in District FOIA law by an exemption for documents where disclosure would "constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy." That same exemption would apply to the body camera footage, so Bowser's excuse for the blanket ban doesn't hold up. (Original quote snitched from the linked Washington City Paper article.
The US did, and now people are bitching about Barack Obama and claiming he's not American. They're lucky, Mel Gibson is eligible to run for president. *shudders*
In that case, I apologise. I thought you were linking to the article for its own sake, and it quite clearly (and inaccurately) claims that singular they is a recent addition to the language.
