I wonder if this has anything to do with the nude photos of Trump's wife.

But those aren't pornography, they're Art(tm).

No matter what kind of animal with teeth you look at, those teeth tell you what they evolved to eat.

It just ain't true. Gorillas have big, sharp teeth (including more impressive canines than humans have) but they don't eat meat.

Mod parent up, the Sun is absolutely not a paper to be trusted, it's pure trash, just look at their webpage:
The Sun | The Best for News, Sport, Showbiz, Celebrities | The Sun (title by them not me)

And the paper is not interested in serious news, why would they even bother? Next months story will be 'How we caught a traitor with our tor trap'.

so basically... It would look like this

About as bad as the guy not being allowed to fly because of his optimus prime t-shirt, picture of him wearing it.

Well, if you are allergic to the portable document format then you could read the html google cache of the document:

As for acrobat, well, Adobe don't call it that anymore and you don't have to use their bloated reader, I use expertPDF and SumatraPDF.

And if you think longer paper = worse paper then this is for you:

Well, he's had his passport revoked, is being hunted around the world, and is being vilified in almost all public media.

Snowden isn't being hunted around the world because his passport is revoked. He is in Russia. Snowden isn't being vilified in "almost all public media." It is quite the reverse - he is being hailed as a hero by Chinese, Russians, many Europeans, and others across the world.

Well, at least he took refuge in Russia. What use do they have for four laptops full of NSA secrets?

The Sun newspaper in the UK used to (and might still do) have a girl with her boobs out on page 3 every day. Other papers in the UK do it too.

The Sun has a terrible reputation with anyone who has a brain, for shitty tabloid "journalism". It's also owned by that "Captain of Industry" Rupert Murdoch.

Not at these prices he doesn't.

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4834923/iPad-pony-trap-as-Grace-6-runs-up-massive-900-bill-on-free-game-app.html

A GIRL of six racked up a £900 bill in 30 minutes on a FREE iPad game, her horrified mum revealed last night.
Grace Walker downloaded the My Little Pony app on her mumâ(TM)s iPad â" and paid £69.99 a pop to buy VIRTUAL gems.
She innocently clicked on the âoebuy nowâ option which appeared more than 12 times in half an hour â" landing her parents with the monster bill.

Apple faces paying £66million damages to US customers whose kids also ran up huge bills using free apps.

Apologies for the Sun link but it said pretty much the same on the BBC News last night. On the news report it said there is a bit of a hole in iTunes you need to enter your password to purchase a game but not to make an in game purchase. Look at the price per in game purchase £69.99 about $100 that is way out of line for a bought game let alone a freeby. Worse still it isn't a bunch of fly by nights but Hasbro! There are quite a few other games with the same mode of operation.

Part of playing many games is generating in game cash to "pay" for upgrades, how is a young kid going to know the difference between play money and real money in a game.

Android isn't much better, there is a thing called the adpush framework which is increasingly being used by apps and (worse still upgrades to apps) The first you will know about it is a notification with a star. When clicked this takes you to an affiliate AD which can be for a ringtone and a 12 dollar a month subscription to be taken from your phone bill. The biggest issue with this is the app which installed this framework isn't mentioned. Luckily once you know the source of the ads you can download applications which detect apps with the framework installed so you have the option of deleting them.

Personally I think this advertising method should be classed as malware and apps that use it should be removed from the playstore. Google manages and approves the apps and is essentially a trusted source, Google is betraying that trust and damaging the reputation of Android and Google. You could say that Apple is damaging the relationship between Apple and its users by allowing the ingame purchases by default. However if Big Name companies are producing these apps then they may have leverage when it comes to other products such as movie and song downloads.

It needs action taking before the credibility of both platforms is ruined

Considering the bleeding wound which is life in Iraq today you were trying for sarcasm, weren't you?

Wow, sucks to be them.

Buoyed by an increase in oil production and declining violence, Iraq's economy is showing signs of life.

Iraq has boosted oil production to 3 million barrels a day with the help of international oil companies. That's up from the 2.5 million barrels before the 2003 U.S.-led invasion. The government expects to expand capability to 10 million barrels a day in six years, which would put it at the top of world oil producers.

Baghdad streets are jammed with late-model cars, and restaurants and cafes are open well into the night. People have more disposable income and can buy an infinite array of consumer goods. "There is a sense money is percolating," says Kevin Carey, a senior economist at the World Bank.

The International Monetary Fund forecasts Iraq's economy will grow 11.1% this year to about $144 billion . . .

Last year, Iraq attracted $55.67 billion in foreign investment and other commercial activity, a 40% increase from the previous year, according to Dunia Frontier Consultants. . . .

Last year, China's investment and other business activity in Iraq was valued at more than $3 billion, according to Dunia. South Korea ranked No. 1, with about $12 billion in Iraq, according to the report. A South Korean real estate developer is in negotiations on a deal potentially worth $35 billion to build 500,000 housing units and related infrastructure, according to Dunia.

. . . consumers are ready to spend. Stores are jammed with microwaves, computers, air conditioners and wide-screen televisions.

"In one day, we might sell 75 cars in this showroom," says Ali Alrobaiy, a marketing official for a large car dealer in Baghdad. "It's a huge market.". . . ---- Iraq's economy shows signs of growth

Microtransactions on mobile devices -- and especially marketed towards children -- can be extremely problematic.

Even microtransactions in online games are getting out of hand, and they're arguably one of the few places where the model excels.

The problem is nickel-and-dime related. When you're not spending much, you don't realize how fast you're actually spending money. This is the reason a lot of people carry cash instead of plastic; it's less abstract.

I'm a big gamer, and many games I play operate on microtransaction models. Over the years, I've spent over $1000 on one game, and over $300 on another. Both games were technically free. Altogether microtransactions have probably cost me close to $6k.

The UK already figured out that wind power claims are exaggerated. By a lot. "Fuel poverty" is now an 'issue' that appears regularly in the UK press. It's killing people.

Don't believe any of it; they're all oil company shills. Yay saving the planet.

There's nothing wrong with immigration. In fact the best way they could balance it out is by letting anyone freely live anywhere and apply for any job.

Free unrestricted immigration is not necessarily good, because then you get purely economic immigration of people who have no intention of actually living by the laws of the land they move to, and eventually assimilating, and have only moved for better quality of life and a welfare check. You know, the kind of problems that Europe is having today with some Muslim immigrants, for example. I don't think anyone wants that kind of stuff in their neighborhood - and don't forget that, in a democracy, these people also get voting rights...

So I think it's reasonable to require that immigrants adhere to some basic norms and customs (beyond what's written down in law) in the society that receives them, and that their eventual citizenship is conditional on "good conduct" with respect to those norms and customs. It may sound like discrimination when compared to natural-born citizens, but for the latter a lot of those norms are ingrained as part of their upbringing in that culture, and so different treatment is not unwarranted.

The Register says

First off, just what is the law? Various guides - including an official release from the Ministry of Justice - make it clear that pictures will fall foul of the new law if four components are present. The pic must be pornographic, or produced for sexual purposes. It must be realistic. It must contain certain specific imagery, including necrophilia, bestiality, activity depicting serious harm to breast, anus or genitals or life-threatening activity. Finally, it must be grossly offensive, as determined either by a jury or magistrate.

All those components must be there. Poster your walls with the most grotesque, the most blood-spattered out-takes from Saw or Hostel and unless someone can prove you actually get off on them, no prosecution could follow. That, of course, highlights one of the first of many question marks hovering over this legislation: is "produced for sexual purposes" defined relative to the motives of the originator of an image, or the motives of the person who downloads it to their hard-drive? Lawyers suspect the latter: so in fact, the out-takes in question might or might not fall foul of the law depending on your personal sexual tastes.

An englishman was recently convicted of possessing extreme pornography, but the BBC article does not go into the details-- and while The Sun has also covered the story, they have merely tarted up the details, reconfirming their utter worthlessness,.

So I know this is Fox News we're talking about here, but where exactly does one draw the line between a failure to check your sources, and becoming a tabloid?

You become a tabloid when you couple your failure to check sources with boobs, as is done in this British Murdoch publication.

That's going to be a hard one. Gold is pretty rare stuff. See here. From that article

gold is made in the last seconds in the lives of the most massive stars in the universe, the supernova explosions.

Gold is so rare because the conditions needed to make it are rare. On average, in a galaxy of a 100,000million stars, there will only be one supernova explosion per century, and the explosion itself is only hot enough to make gold for about a minute.

That is why gold is so valuable. Throughout the whole of human history, we have only discovered enough gold on Earth to fill three Olympic-sized swimming pools.

If we can possibly locate another, more abundant source of gold and use it, we will.

I'm sorry, all the bling is a turnoff. Like this. Sometimes less is more. Shadow, glow, glass rendering, sparkles and pixie dust is a bit much for the mouse cursor.

For fact-checking you'll need to refer to The Daily Mail or The Sun.

but it's a hell of a lot easier to kill 26 people in a short period of time with a gun than with a knife.

But even though injuring 23 people with a knife is less bad than killing 26 with a gun, it's still bad enough.

TFA is way out. The was a more valuable Roman find of Roman Torcs 3 miles to the west of Stirling in Scotland which netted around £4m which he had a share of £500k

What's interesting is that the Romans didn't last long in Scotland but there are still visible signs of our italian pals from 2000 years ago, such as the Fendoch fort in the Sma Glen north of Crieff and the fort at Braco some 5 miles south of Crieff.

We found some tunic broaches with a metal detector in my parents field a few miles away. Still looking for the pot of Roman gold. There are legends that Fendoch had a large stash of gold but there just legends and no one has ever found them plus metal detecting is illegal on recognised Roman forts which is a bit of a set back!

Touch screen computers from Ireland?

If there were flat-panel touch screens, or even regular flat-panel color LCD monitors, then the units would probably have been worth more than 9 euros each. I did a search and found some photos of these machines (there's one at the top of this article) and they don't have any of this. There is only what appears to be a two-line, character-based, monochrome LCD display, with a big row of labeled pushbuttons and corresponding LEDs below it. Cheap, generic, largely worthless hardware.

To be fair, when their own enforcement officers can't tell the difference, why expect a little news article to get it right?

Much of Europe is in deep trouble.

The US might avoid the worst of it.... if it can prevent Iran from tossing a nuke at it and the EMP sends life back to 1901. The major European powers were supposed to put a lid on the problem - it didn't work out that way.

Think about the profits possible to the first company that builds an interstellar ship...
it will likely be the culmination of thousands of other advancements along the way, the kind that the private sector is very good at making

What profits? It's going to go into space and never come back.
Exploration of near space wasn't "profitable" at the time. Not a dime of "profit" was made by any company in going to the moon.

All the "Profits" from space exploration have been from companies being subsidized far beyond 100% of cost on the R&D that went into developing what space travel we have now.

Was it worth it? Hell Fucking Yes. But if it had been left to "companies" and "private enterprise", none of it would ever have happened. The private sector takes all the things that were necessary to land on the moon, and says "where's the ROI on that? Fuck this, let's put the money into developing another muscle car or a pill to make men have 6-hour erections and multiple orgasms."

NASA is responsible for an incredible number of things you know and take for granted today. None of which would exist without NASA, because the "private sector" would never have come close to putting in the money to do the R&D.

Bullshit.

The private sector STILL can't get a man into space. If it had been left to the private sector "from day one", the US would never have had anyone try, because the private sector never would have put forth the R&D money to get anything done.

Scaling back NASA is a result of small-minded fools from the right wing who scream "cut cut cut everything we like yeah military!!!" They want to kill PBS, they want to kill NASA, they call numerous things "government waste", but they never want to admit that the biggest waste of government money is sending the US military everywhere to be the world's policeman, wasting $500 billion a year to invade countries, set up military bases, and bomb the fuck out of places where nobody wants us.

PBS gets $422 million currently. That is 0.084 PERCENT of what we waste on the military.
NASA's annual budget is only $19 billion in 2011. And for that you get all this stuff that you fucking take for granted.

We should say fuck the military, stop buying them new toys, and spend the money on NASA instead. We'd be to Mars in 5 years if we budgeted it.

I hate to link to The Sun, but it was linked to from TFA. It seems these things aren't always quite as much fun as one might think.
