Yeah. I temped for the Ordnance Survey in the UK for a year. Even though they weren't obliged (because the UK hadn't signed up to the EU working time directive, and we were temps so had bugger all rights) we weren't allowed to work overtime on both weekend days (as much as I wanted to as the pay was shit), because the OS subscribed to it (like many companies).
My understanding - from a talk at DefCon by a lawyer - was that once the FBI is aware of what Geek Squad staff are doing, those staff have become agents of the state and therefore require a warrant.
It's "fine" for somebody to look at your drive and inform the authorities if they find something illegal - the government was not aware of what was happening so it's admissable. This changes the moment the government says "thanks for that, let us know if this happens again, by the way here's some cash". They've instructed someone to access private information without a warrant.
It was over Japan'ss EEZ (200 NM), not territorial waters. It's basically the region where they have exclusive shipping and drilling rights. Anyone can enter the area without explicit permission.
The difference between the territorial sea and the exclusive economic zone is that the first confers full sovereignty over the waters, whereas the second is merely a "sovereign right" which refers to the coastal state's rights below the surface of the sea
I had to google the term after watching an episode of Archer - it was the first time I'd ever heard it. I have literally never heard of anyone (not even about a friend of a friend of a friend...) doing something like that, and I've heard some pretty fucked stuff from my colleagues.
Simple - you tell the visa applicant to give the DHS the real accounts and not the benign ones, otherwise they aren't allowed in.
Seriously though, I haven't logged onto my facebook account for about 18 months now - so that could flag up as being fake. That is if they could find it - I had the security settings locked down so that I can't even find it knowing my name and username.
Great for skiing, hiking, bouldering, etc. I can leave my phone safe and warm in my rucksack, and if I get a call or text I can see if it looks important it whether I can ignore it until later.
However I don't wear my pebble watch at any other time as it's of no use to me.
To be fair, I gave Trump better odds at winning - because he brought out the "it's rigged" excuse before the vote, much like what happened with the EU referendum in the UK.
I - like many - laughed at the idea idea of "bring pens", because rubbing out pencil marks is the best way to rig a referendum... My colleagues were bringing out every excuse why the Leave camp would lose.
In hindsight is a very effectively tactic. If you're an undecided or apathetic voter, being told one side will steal the vote will likely spur you into action.
" very similar to the previous upward trends that were entirely natural.", but it's not. I know others have posted this, but this XKCD does show what the current trend is in comparison to the previous 20,000 years.
As much as I don't want Brexit to happen, I do believe it will. It's sensible for companies who will suffer from Brexit - some know they will - to start making plans.
You're right, there is a lack of understanding. Some companies will benefit from Brexit, my employer for example and our neighbours. They export to the EU, so a weak pound is good. We earn off the back of used cars, so low new car sales are good for us because it means more prime are buying used.
We're not representative of the UK - the average income is about 3 times the UK median, and noone is below 150% of the median. So who cares if your fuel or holiday is 20% more expensive when you're earning a six figure salary. If it's ok for "me" it's ok for everyone, right...
Those companies leaving are more likely to suffer from Brexit so the move is understandable.
I can't really comment on Trump - not being American. With regards to Brexit I can confidently say that the Leave voters in my office did indeed ignore facts and believed what they wanted to hear.
* They were told the UK would have to make concessions to retain access to the single market, but "no, we've a bigger economy then Norway, so we'll get what we want". * They were told it would devalue the sterling, but "no, that's project fear" * They were told that Turkey joining the EU was highly unlikely - 1 out of 37 chapters in 10 years - but "no, Merkel will push it through" even though the UK was a bigger proponent than Germany. * They were given the figures on immigrants being less likely to claim benefits then natives, but ignored them.
So the deficit is 25 billion. What is that as a percentage of total trade? I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but the EU has a larger - by a factor of 5 - economy then the UK.
So unless the our imports from the EU are 500% of our exports - they're not - any trade war is likely to hit the UK harder than the EU (there are no winners, just losers).
Unless of course you believe that the UK will get whatever it wants without any consequences, which is quite popular at the moment.
Similar in the UK. A video was release of two armed officers who were dealing with a report of some teens with a handgun. Their getting if the situation was pretty damn good.
It's bizarre. Police in the states seem to be trained in conflict escalation - immediately point your firearm at the suspect - but I suppose that's a side effect of having an armed population.
Take for instance the British army, they are trained to always have their weapons pointed at the ground as deescalation is the priority when dealing with civilians.
Yup, a friend of mine in uni asked me to leave his office when I walked in eating a snickers, I would have been about 3 metres from him and he could feel himself reacting. The first thing he said to me when I walked in was "does that have peanuts in it"
Up until that point I had no idea you could be that sensitive to peanuts.

Which is why we never see leaks, data being left on public transport, etc...

Hopkins is probably wishing she took up the offer to accept "an apology and a 5,000 GBP donation to a migrants charity" right now.

Is this an actual thing in the US?
What's the point, the EPA won't exist in any useful form of Trump gets his way.
The @POTUS account retweeted his Nordstrom tweet, so yes. Plus Kellanne Conway was busy telling people to "Go buy Ivanka's stuff."

As the CEO of Tesla, he should focus on that
I think they already are focusing on that.
Had to search for what that was - the Board of Longitude really did screw him over, didn't they.
That's the problem with CDs - it's impossible to play from start to finish in one go, thereby breaking up the"story".
Meanwhile, back in reality...
Anything else you'd like me to Google for you?
I'm struggling to find out the speed of light - can you help me please.
