I outlined it already.There have to be smarter ways than this crude DRM crap.

Didn't you forget the decimal points?Don't they get just 25-30%?..
And if as anyone knows a competitive device against Allen-Bradley that has its suite completely available in Unix(*BSD), that would be appreciated.MicroLogix/RSlogix software
What does it do that security/nmap does not do for free?I paid for a scanner software on Linux - and I would pay for it again. I don't like the fact that it's closed source, but so far it has real benefits over any other sane frontend I've seen. And: I *want* the developer to continue. (But so far there's no FreeBSD version…)

I thought xsane/sane-backends/sane-frontends does a good job at that.That scanner doesn't scan networks, but paper
I used to do that. These days I instead do all the tax calculations by hand, and then fill out the (PDF) forms with a simple PDF editor. It takes a bit of time (a dozen long evenings), but it gives me a feeling of control that can't be matched by an automated process.US Tax preparation software.
As I said above, I used to have that. But the real reason was file format compatibility. Today, the freely available versions on the web / in the cloud are perfectly adequate for my needs.An office suite, provided that ...
The guy who has the patent on the DRM used for DVDs was a friend of mine. He retired and moved far away. He was not very rich, but comfortably upper middle class, and he'll never be poor. He got a good salary, and when that patent turned out to be one of the most valuable patents in the world, his employer gave him a generous bonus.Whoever comes up with the solution to this will be a very rich person indeed. Something that guarantees lifetime access but also prevents piracy.
Heh, you are one of the very few!I can't think of anything but it's possible. I have a licensed Winzip.
If I was doing heavy audio or video editing (some friends of mine are), it seems that the only good software for that requires paid licenses. The kind of thing that can take several hundred audio tracks and mix and synchronize a perfect recording, and take hundreds of video takes and make a movie with heavy compositing. If you look on youtube for recordings of full symphony orchestras made at home, you see what I mean.
You know, Wyclef Jean took apart musical equipment and put it back together in a modified way. He figured, everyone doesn't know what a specific model is supposed to sound like, so he made his own variation of sounds from the musical equipment, and made a record that way. To him, it didn't matter that the model was supposed to sound an exact way, just that his variation, which is different than what the model was intended to make, sounds good.7. Every sound engineer has an artistic signature (I'm not talking of hash function!) -- Natural Talent and experience are dominated factors, but:
* It's a combination of audio, sound (not digital), midi (in related to specific VSTi) recorded/saved settings in workflow, and finally mixing and mastering stage.
* Most of them are tied to some specific software/hardware mixture, which is developed over the years.
* During life time of a studio, massive amount of capital is spendend.
8. On testing new equipment/setup (both software, and hardware):
Most Audio/Music production studio are very conservative on using new things in their setup -- permanently. And they should.
Sound is unforgivable. One mistake, and your reputation is down to the toilet.
Yes, I do it by hand too, but I hate PDF editing. I use the original PDF form as a background image for spreadsheets (I use LibreOffice). So, once you spend time adding formulas, then next year you just adjust your spreadsheets a little to accommodate a couple of new lines and change its background.These days I instead do all the tax calculations by hand, and then fill out the (PDF) forms with a simple PDF editor. It takes a bit of time (a dozen long evenings), but it gives me a feeling of control that can't be matched by an automated process.
No argument against innovation. Bach's The Well-Tempered Clavier (Das wohltemperierte Klavier) was unorthodox at his time. Moving away from Meantone to current convention, which is standard for 300 years.so he made his own variation of sounds from the musical equipment, and made a record that way.
"kdenlive" is something to look at. Well, I haven't cut a cinema movie, but I document some of my large distant hikes within videos: 1 hour and 350 to 550 video clips are often used, and I'm using 6 to 8 tracks therefore (you can have more, but I cannot imagine anyone actually having to merge more tracks at the same frame beside of music compositions). It splits audio and video by default, you have dozens filters, fadings, etc.; And some people are saying that it can be named in one sentence with the big ones for movies And the last years it even doesn't crash every now and then…If I was doing heavy audio or video editing (some friends of mine are), it seems that the only good software for that requires paid licenses.

Example: First dropdown "text black & white", second "as PDF", press button "scan" - since 10 years always a 100% perfect result, even when the source was low quality printing on low quality paper. Button "scan+", and I've got a second page on my PDF with the next scanned document. Yes!I thought xsane/sane-backends/sane-frontends does a good job at that.
Although I'd always just use LaTeX for any "complex" document, because just about every WYSIWYG text processor sooner or later is a PITA with these *) … applying a page format globally including footnotes and page numbering is definitely something LibreOffice doesn't have any problem with, so I'd assume you somehow failed to try it as intended (which can of course happen, and in the end, I also think all the UI concepts in text processors suck, and which one is good to use for you depends mostly on what you're used to).Case in point - for my Seminary classes, there is a specific formatting required of papers required, specifically with footnotes and page numbering. It is very simple in Word to setup the formatting as required where it will automatically apply the formatting on each new page. In Libre/Open Office, Clligra, Abi Word, et. al., they refuse to autoformat the way I require it.
