Digital distribution is so hampered that I'm driven to buy physical media. Seriously, depending on the movie, it may or may not be available in my region, it may or may not be available in HD, it will most likely not have all the extras as the Blu Ray disc, the cost varies quite a bit on region.
I can buy a Blu Ray for half the price of a digitally distributed SD quality version of the film.
I assume Netflix is way better than this, if so I can't wait for the Australian launch.
I would totally pay money to the distributors if I got all the content, the highest quality and surround sound. I would even pay a premium over the cost of the Blu Ray discs because I could stream it on any PC or device I am logged into or in the case of the Play store, anything which has Youtube.
I met with the CIO on Monday and told him that after a month of trying to work with, then around my coworkers I've concluded that I can't be productive on this team and that I'm actively soliciting new employment, but can't afford to quit.
I'm not so sure if it was adult or not. At the risk of sounding like a prima donna, after two near death experiences in the past year I just haven't got patience for the dance anymore.
The CIO had no idea what to say to me and now I guess we're all just pretending it didn't happen. My direct supervisor seems extremely nervous about the entire thing. I've only been here a month and we're an at-will state. They could simply fire me, so it's weird that they haven't.
What I think they're doing is trying to convince themselves that I'm a crank and everything is fine. Either way I'm not interestedin trying to maintain a polite fiction while I get quietly trashed behind my back, or whatever.
I'm in someone's sandbox and they DO NOT like it. I don't know how disgruntled you have to be to tell a 2 day old new hire "there's nothing here for you and you shouldn't have been hired."
Did you explain to the CIO that you left a good job in good faith to work for him and that the team you are supposed to be working with is preventing you from doing the job you were hired to do? You might even have a valid lawsuit here.
True you are not experiencing protected status discrimination but you DID leave employment elsewhere in good faith to work for them. IANAL but if they fire you now because the team you work with doesn't want you then that is all sorts of fucked up and you may have a valid labor lawsuit on your hands.
No. She cannot. Because that's not how copyright works.
You COULD trademark it IF you demonstrated a valid associated with a brand identity. And even then, trademark protection only extends to brand identification. You aren't infringing on Disney's trademark by going around saying the words "Mickey Mouse."
Pretty sure you meant he tried to Trademark it. Very different things.
You can't "copyright something." You either have a copyright because you created a thing, or you have no copyright. Copyright exists automatically. Registering your copyright simply creates a record of it so that taking legal action to protect it is easier. It doesn't confer any additional rights.
Treated myself to the expense root beer when we went to the store. My girlfriend would not listen to me when I said she was carrying to much up the stairs. On the first couple of sts
I had to remove a previous job from my online resume due to the company publicly dealing with Child Ponography, screw the gap rather not be associate with them at all at this point.

8chan? Did you work for 8chan? =P
No I did not work for 8 Chan, but rather Channel Awesome who had the bright idea to DOWNLOAD AND BROADCAST child p0rn in order to prove a point about 8 Chan and gamergate. The amount of people defending this is really making me sick.

HR was quick to tell me that I'm "not experiencing discrimination based on any protected status."
I had a very positive and encouraging phone interview with Yale University last week that I hope will pan out once the holiday season is over.
Rinfernal's account on YouTube was closed out.
At least Jazz has a lot of his stuff.
Also, if you have asthma, you might get sued.
