Yes, it is inherently wrong, especially in a college setting where the student is paying to attend the classes. Maybe if the tech had proper controls where the student was in charge of what got shared, with whom, and when it could be a positive (ie... struggling and can ask for help, then provide the access for review and suggestions).
Otherwise, it's just an outright invasion of the student's privacy.
There is a store about a mile away from me that sells coffee, premium cigars, and firearms. It's the strangest combo that I have ever seen in the Pittsburgh area. Now if they just sold beer, they could deal with all three main parts of the ATF.
And they upheld considering someone suspicious if they are a proven pedophile. The defendant didn't win - the evidence will still be used. They keyed on him because he has a long record of molesting kids and went back-and-forth to Mexico on a regular basis.
The good thing about this case is laying out some parameters barring random suspicionless running a full-blown forensic exam on a device while still allowing known shady characters to be given a digital anal exam.
Not in this case - the Feds can't appeal it because they won, and I really doubt that the other side has a shot at appealing to SCOTUS and getting cert granted.
You still can't make the parts that actually carry the pressure of firing with 3D printing techniques. Barrels and bolts will still need to be machined from quality alloy steel, and rifling a barrel requires really specialized equipment as well.
I use a D5100, and even with its 16mp RAW files, I always use a Class 10 card to make its responsiveness decent when shooting more than one shot. Cards are cheap, time and missed shots are more important.
That's why I am basically a libertarian in outlook. I don't want help from the public, and really kind of resent being made to support people who should be doing for themselves. I'm fine with some programs to help the old, sick, or infirm... but demmit get off your ass and do something if you can.
And I say this after being unemployed, living hand-to-mouth, and refusing to take benefits.
Life can suck, get a fucking helmet and get to work! And after the hard times comes good times!
Firearms collectors value true originality above all else, and car collectors generally value condition and are okay with restorations and even some modernizations. It's just a different domain.
It is very likely to be tossed out as over-broad in the Federal courts as a result. The key factor is how common the weapons are - and banning the majority of the guns in current use will certainly not fly.
Seriously, it sounds like SOMEONE can't convert between decimal and hex.
The addresses are easy once you get even slightly used to them, and once you memorize your/48 or/64 prefix is no more difficult than v4. 2001:123:45:67::2E/64 isn't hard. [2001:0123:0045:0067:0000:0000:0000:002E]. I have memorized our/48 and our usual scheme is to split it into/64s that then match the 3rd octet of our 192.168.x.x private range...so for example, I'd set up a host that is on 192.168.16.5 as 2001:123:45:10::5/64.
Or even better... just let the router on the subnet autoconfigure the hosts, or setup DHCPv6 on a server.
(Ocourse the 2001:123:45 addresses are totally made-up and fictitious... no need to give my real-world v6 netblocks on here!)
Wouldn't a simple fix for the countries involved just be to impose a tarrif on the importation of the "IP Rights"? Just set it to be equal to taxes on profits, and the problem is solved. So, FB UK doesn't make a paper profit of, say, 3 billion because their revenues of 3.2 billion are offset by "IP Licensing Costs" of 3 billion - just tax the importation of the right and collect the same amount as you would if they didn't try the shifting.
The reason why the PLCAA was passed was to prevent executive agencies from attempting to implement their own de-facto gun control via regulation, and to shut down a spate of lawsuits by a couple of states Attorneys General who were attempting to do the same thing via litigation on cases that had little to no basis in law, but were so costly that the manufacturers would have to "cave in" and settle.
As for the other features, they all suffer from a glaring weakness in that it is trivially easy to bypass them in one way or another. Let's keep in mind that firearms are, at their core, just a pipe with a relatively simple mechanism behind it to smack a pin into the back of a cartridge. Even autoloading mechanisms only have a few parts, and it is physically impossible to prevent someone from disassembling the weapon and jamming the mechanism into a permanent "fire" mode with a drop of glue, a small screw, or even by just taking some lever out. All that it really would do is add cost and reduce reliability.
IIRC, Sweden has a rather small population, but exports huge amounts of oil and other raw materials along with very high-tech products. Thus, they have an income stream that can support a huge welfare state with relatively few people engaged in production.
ZFS on Linux does exist as a kernel module that is pretty stable and works well. http://zfsonlinux.org/ -- it was put out by Lawrence Livermore National Lab, but can't be included with the kernel distros due to GPL / CDDL license compatability issues.
"The lawsuit follows an earlier case against Perez, which was filed in July 2011 by Dietz for unpaid invoices."
Wouldn't that earlier suit have needed to prove that the work was done to satisfy the original contract in order for the court to order her to pay the bills? I want to see what the outcome of that case was - her negative reviews may have been a case of "sour grapes" over being ordered to pay a bill that was legitimately owed, or they could be follow-up to an actually shoddy job.
At this point, none of us have enough information to even speculate as to the eventual outcome of this case.
Indeed, when you post to a site like FB, you retain copyright of the post, but grant the site and anyone who you grant access to the data a license to re-use it (share, comment, etc). Being able to pull that license also affects third parties (other FB users) and *their* comments, derivitave posts, etc. that were made under the initial license granted.
Wouldn't the proper recourse in such a case be to sue the person who uploaded the images or other information under a slander/libel law rather than going after the site that they posted it to?
Breeding U-233 from thorium always creates enough highly radioactive U-232 that makes it unusable for weapon uses, and due to the very close atomic weight is incredibly diffuclt to remove. Random fissions during either assembly of a gun-type weapon or even an implosion mean that you're far more likely to end up with a "fizzle" (very low yield) due to starting the chain reaction too soon, than to get the actual yield that the weapon was designed for. And since the material is so dangerous to handle, the workers who have to put the thing together and maintain it are quite likely to die quickly, as will the electronics necessary to fire the weapon.
I get the argument that some state secrets need to be kept to prevent aiding enemies from circumventing intelligence gathering activities. However, if that privilege is invoked, then the coutrs should simply give a default judgement as if the opposing side's claims are proven by the evidence provided. In other words, keep the secrets and be quiet and lose the case, or defend against it with the requested information - possibly provided under seal and only seen by the judge and a security-cleared lawyer for both sides.

I, for one, am not putting that in my little endian. Others who are big-endian may do so if they wish.

I use 2950s to share off ZFS-formatted storage via iSCSI... and not much else.

I wonder if they are using ReiserFS in it too?

Facebook has offices and employees in Germany, so there IS a jurisdictional nexus.
Having 1 or 2 armed police around would make more sense.

Because that one wouldn't even get 20% support in Congress, nor would it have any chance of being ratified by 3/4 of state legislatures.
