Let's not forget the tax required to be paid in Microsoft Points aka ca$h, for a new gamer tag.
Two ways to get a new gamertag. - Sign up with a new subscription, thereby losing all purchased MS points and the rest of your current subscription. (little as a month or more than a year). - Change your gamertag for 800 MS points (I think that is the right fee). I have no idea if this would actually remove the "cheater" label.
TFA quote -Wiens says. "It is illegal to import screwdrivers that can open this screw into the U.S. unless you buy it through Apple's sales channels. Apple sells the screwdriver for $40."
What's to stop a company such as Wright Tool out of Barberton, OH http://www.wrighttool.com/ from reverse engineering the pentalobular screw, making the tool, and selling it for less than $40?
You failed to prove your statement that Red Flayer was "completely wrong".
- This is the date at which the manufacturer can still guarantee the full potency and safety of the drug. - The FDA sets expiration dates of drugs when the active ingredients reaches 90% efficacy.
The first statement does not disprove the second. What I read is that the FDA considers 90% efficacy to equal a full dosage.
I am not a thief either, but I spend plenty of time at flea markets, swap meets, and off downtown urban areas. The black market for game discs are really not for originals.
Games are pretty easy to rent and then burn a copy. They sell for dirt cheap. It's nearly easier than downloading an image off your favorite torrent.
As far as console serial numbers go...meh. Everything has a serial number. The effort for law enforcement to trace is herculean. Even with the assistance of the internet and say Microsoft's Xbox live.
Bulky consoles? Locked cabinets? Well this guy had plenty of time on his hands to make a few trips. I mean he picked axed a hole in a wall. I'm not a track star, but I think I could empty the average Game Stop of every console in under 20 minutes.
In the end. I think we all agree. This guy is not brain trust.
Rats! You are of course correct and win the semantical arguement.
Let me amend my previous statement. You cannot download DS, Wii, PS3, or Xbox 360. The consoles most likely to be stolen are those STILL being manufactured.
You still can't download game consoles. The article pokes fun at the thief's stone-age method used to steal games. OK, but I would imagine that he would be after the highest ticket items in the store - consoles of every flavor. Seems like he had access to a shared, perhaps basement, wall and basically tired to knock a hole in it. Hardly a tunnel. When I think of a tunnel I think border crossing feats of rogue engineering like this.http://www.cbc.ca/canada/british-columbia/story/2006/07/14/bc-pot-tunnel.html
To make the Car Mechanic to Office Contractor an apples to apples comparison. See Below.
The company in both instances is protecting it's resources.
The repair shop gets tired of losing tools to mechanics so it forces them to provide their own.

The tap and die shop probably had large machinery you used everyday. Places like that including auto repair shops usually only require your own hand tools.
You still think Google is interested in "doing good" before making money? Have you ever worked at a start-up pre-IPO then witnessed the culture shift that comes along with being a public company?
I'm sorry that should have been stated more accurately. When searching the Megan's Law website for offenders in my area (California) I found that most offenses were for 288(a) LEWD OR LASCIVIOUS ACTS WITH A CHILD UNDER 14 YEARS OF AGE.
I interposed another California legal term having to do with a modified stay away order called a No HAM order. harass/annoy/molest. That's what I get for/.ing at work.
You are correct. After reading the various links of stats family vs non-family suspect is not a determining factor in the decision on whether or not to issue an alert. Thanks for the PDF.
Most of the reported missing children are parental abductions and AMBER alert is usually not needed in those cases. LE usually knows where to locate the parent AMBER alert is significant in tracking and finding stranger abductions. Sorry I don't have the more granular detailed numbers.
Please stop acting like these sex offenders are ALL good eggs that are getting a raw deal. Everyone's criminal record follows them for life! Even simple arrests without a conviction. http://www.clumsycrooks.com/mugshots Unless you are or become a celebrity, only sex crimes are made available on an easy to access internet list.
Did you read the webpage you quoted? Under the article the webpage owner posts "I can think of better place to put them, but since we already have them all in one convenient locationwell, I’m just sayin’." Hardly a sympathetic voice.
Punishment fits the crime for this guy. Osvaldo Castillo, 29, who was convicted of molesting a 6-year-old boy, told the Herald. “It’s not fun at all. We are living like animals and trying to make the best of it.”
Perhaps the county contracts with a more rural location and puts the 65 people on a work farm or other cheap labor enterprise. Provide their basic needs plus a small stipend for personal use.
COST: The cost benefit for tax payers is enormous. "Special Needs" inmates like sex offenders are exponentially more costly than those in the general population. They are in protective custody from inmates that consider it their duty to kill sex offenders, especially child molesters. It is important to note that these are parolees wearing the GPS. They will be getting out someday and have agreed to wear the GPS for an earlier release.
Law Enforcement Response: This is a powerful tool for the enforcement of stay away orders in general basically getting LE one step closer to "Minority Report" level pre-emptive policing. This gives LE the ability to put offenders back in jail for parole violations instead of waiting for a new victim. Be prepared for this to become standard for all parolees because this pilot program will be successful. Everytime a parolee wanders into a Red Zone it will be treated as a prevented sex crime against a child. Powerful PR stuff.
The List: While you can find the some people on the registered sex offenders with the "indecent exposure" charge the vast majority of offenders fall into the "annoy/molest children" charge. Anyone who gets caught for public urination/indecent exposure and AGREES to register as a sex offender for LIFE needed a better lawyer. Any decent lawyer (I know there are many horrible lawyers) should have plead that down to vandalism with the max fine and even max jail time. Take the MAX sentencing for vandalism or destruction of property before registering as a sex offender for LIFE due to that lame of an offense, just to avoid jail time. Jail time ends. LIFE.. well that ends too, but you get the idea.
This technology is not really for your average consumer. Tech geeks and the curious will check it out, but the real market is for the Financial Sector especially those doing business on the Exchanges around the world. Multiple displays broadcast from the command center directly to the floor will give some traders an edge.

Console bans require a new console. $200-$400.

This would be up to 5 already if I had a mod point.

You CAN, but you SHOULDn't.

I would use a company computer, but my cell phone is always mine so I can turn the thing off.
Did you file a bug with the companies involved?

Great info, but do you have a link. I'm a graphics and display geek with much prior experience reading specs.

Bandwidth and interference aside. 30m is pretty far. Could you post a link to the existing wireless display you speak of?

If they have Red Zones they cannot enter. Then guess what? They won't be in the Red Zone to get into that traffic jam.
