Peak Computer, Inc., 991 F.2d 511 (9th Cir.  1993), was a case heard by the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit which addressed the issue of whether the loading of software programs into Random-Access Memory (RAM) by a computer repair technician during maintenance constituted an unauthorized software copy and therefore a copyright violation.

A library technician or library assistant is a skilled library and information professional trained to perform the day-to-day functions of a library, and assists librarians in the acquisition, preparation, and organization of information.  They also assist library patrons in finding information.  The widespread use of computerized information storage and retrieval systems has resulted in library technicians assisting in the handling of technical services (such as cataloguing) that were once performed exclusively by librarians.  Especially in small village libraries, a library technician may be the only person (or one of only a few) staffing the library.  In larger libraries, they may help run certain departments and supervise library clerks, aides, and volunteers.  Because libraries are increasingly using new technologies (such as automated databases, CD-ROM, the Internet, and virtual libraries), the role of the library technician is expanding and evolving accordingly.

After Meiwes and the victim jointly attempted to eat the victim's severed penis, Meiwes killed his victim and proceeded to eat a large amount of his flesh.  Because of his acts, Meiwes is also known as the Rotenburg Cannibal or "Der Metzgermeister" (The Master Butcher). The Konrad Zuse Medal is the highest award of the Gesellschaft für Informatik (the German Computer Science Society), given every two years to one or sometimes two leading German computer scientists.  It is named after German computer pioneer Konrad Zuse. Diary of a Cannibal (also known as Cannibal) is a 2007 United States production horror film directed by Ulli Lommel.  It is possibly inspired by the true-crime story of Armin Meiwes, the "Rotenburg Cannibal" who posted an online ad searching for someone to volunteer to be mutilated and eaten.  Unlikely as it may seem, someone actually replied.  The cannibal met his intended victim and seduced, murdered, and consumed him.
