Always ask any kilt wearing Scotsmen you see, "Is anything worn under the kilt?" Laughing, they will give the classic replay, "No, It's all in perfect working order."
Remember to shout across the Whispering Gallery in St Paul's Cathedral. The name is historical and fools many tourists into missing the exciting results.
Isn't this well known? I've seen TV documentaries with computer animations showing the difference between a crowd at an exit and a crowd at a partially blocked exit. Against intuition, the partially blocked exit allows more people to escape in a given time.
But 10% of the time it will return a false positive, so 300 people will be detained, none of whom will be terrorists. The description of the problem could be better expressed.
This is a DOS on the security services and explains why despite much propaganda automatic face recognition systems are not in use.
And when did deterrents ever stop murders or kids making copies of songs for their friends?
The big fines were intended to make professional copyright violations where some factory turns out hundreds or thousands of copies of fake product unprofitable. Using the same law to beat up some random person is disproportionate.
Why does this man hate blind people? Why does he want to force the blind to rely on the limited availability of commercial and specialised works for the blind?
It will be interesting to see what happens with the aircraft workers who already are subject to MORE stringent checks than the ID card would require. Every relevant union has already come out and rejected the introduction of additional pointless ID cards.
As aircraft are known to trigger cloud formation, surely we should be putting every last jet into the air, passengers or not, and get them pumping out polution to save the planet...
Many organisations outsource their IT services to companies like IBM. If IBM can supply the service and not have to pay for Microsoft licenses everybody (who matters) wins.

Why does a product called "Reader" have to process user input?

The typical reaction of a bully.
This is the RIAA fallacy, presuming that all pirated copies represent lost revenue.
There is this company called "Danger".......
All he had to do was to twist the "EVIL LEVEL" knob to 11 and a portal to hell would have been opened!
Isn't this silly idea just a blanket permission to copy music?

I keep telling people, "Keep your illegal porn and plans to assassinate [insert name here] on other peoples PCs."
Let's not do anything then 'cus somebody may decide to break it.
What a pathetic world view.
Who the hell cares if the grid is down, the EMP pulse will have fried all electronics in the area anyway.

Seriously, I can't recall the last time I clicked on an ad.

But it's your country and so 14,000 people shot dead a year can safely be discounted so your right to bare arms is protected.
Isn't anybody going to produce a quote from Asimov?

Who decides it's illegal? Do they explain why a given page is blocked with reference to the legal code?
Aren't the RIAA demands based more on making a RIAA profit rather than a deterrence to others?
I just love the way that people are wanting and buying thin client hardware after years saying they couldn't possibly work without a REAL computer
Not really how we expected the Internet to develop.
