One good thing I like about macOS is that it can mount ISOs, .toasts, and .DMGs.
I still have Daemon Tools: macOS doesn't handle the more proprietary formats.
Government regulatory and licensing powers, like any tool, can be used, misused, and abused. This is clearly in the second or third area for it to be "Drone operators will steal our business of surveying, even if they're just offering pictures."
If there was anything meriting an arrest, it would have been brought up. Either they were smart enough to wear masks to prevent identification and were smart enough to not record their "rioting", or there was nothing that was actionable.
Either A. Reply to your previous comment, or B. Put them all in one big post. Don't separate it out into separate threads. And I prefer B. It's less spammy that way.
It's constant topic here in your attacks on copyright, patents, trademarks, and DMCA.
Remember that the Constitution of the United States of America, the highest law of the land, has said Congress may enact such laws, not that they must. Also, it must be for the benefit of the arts and science. If the law starts harming innovation and media, something is wrong. Maybe the existing laws need to be re-written or abolished entirely.
Boo hoo. -- If your "job" involves finding such
then you're probably malicious / pirate.
Nice line break.
There are three main types of hackers: black-hat, grey-hat, and white hat. Black hat hackers look for exploits in code and systems to sell the information off. White hat hackers look for exploits in code and systems to make sure that they're safe from future hacks and exploits by telling the people that they hacked what they did. Grey hats do both. White hats make systems more secure by checking the vulnerabilities and reporting them to the company/people who control the site.
DMCA works fine for everyone honest. Only pirates hate it.
Nope. A lot of content creators on YouTube have had their livelihoods taken away by fraudulent DMCA notices. TotalBiscuit, the Cynical Brit, had a couple of strikes by Sega Japan against his Shining Force videos because Sega Japan went on a DMCA spree to drum up search rankings on the sequel Shining Ark. Yes, this is abuse of DMCA. Yes, his channel was affected. And it wasn't just his channel.
He also had a couple of videos being critical of a couple of different indie games, both which were very poorly made. Both times, the developer issued a fraudulent DMCA claim. One of the games, Garry's Incident, got a special video where TotalBiscuit goes into the problems with DMCA and being a content creator on YouTube.
do you want Airbus to allow Chinee knock-off parts on their assemblies of already multi-sourced death traps?
If they work (both in stress tests and as replacements), I see no issue. Things go wrong when testing starts being skipped or ignored.
You DO NOT "own" the content on a DVD or book.
No, but you do own the physical item itself. If you cut out all the words of a book and paste them together randomly on a poster, is that copyright infringement? Can the author or publisher go after the person who bought the book for misuse of their product (and remember: books can be resold, so the original buyer might not have been the one to cut it up)? What about showing someone else a picture in a magazine: are you infringing on copyright by showing someone who didn't buy the magazine the picture? If not, why not?
There needs to be some sense on what a user can do to the product they bought. Copying it and selling the copies verbatim is an obvious no-no; reselling an item after it's no longer wanted or needed is accepted. Other than that, it has become a legal grey area on self-modifying the stuff you built, such as third-party ink cartridges or the right to repair.
And people are complaining about Biden being pro-PRC. Through inaction, Trump has given Hong Kong to China. Xi will be calling his buddy Trump after this is over and congratulating him on distracting the world so that Communist China could take over Hong Kong.
Re: I said this before…
I've heard Latinos/Latinas hate the Latinx label and have even elevated it to that of a slur.
That said, there is something wrong when committing a crime isn't a fireable offense, but wasting time is.

The entire leadership of Activision-Blizzard need to resign without the golden parachute: They should have enough money to not need that parachute.
Bobby Kotick either inherited the problem or caused it. Either way, he should have stopped this but he didn't.
Re:
From what I've read in this article, the lawsuit is against Turkey itself, since it was their representative that the security was "protecting".

This reminds me of the scripture "They draw near me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me."
In other words, he only says he likes the first amendment, but twists its definition to suit his purposes.

Minor correction: The binary version would be 1,073,741,824, not 1,024,000,000.
