Indeed I'm susprised there's no spending limit on the appstore.. it's the first system like it that I've seen without one.
It means that I've had to set my wife's itunes with a bogus CC id so she can still 'buy' free apps but not paid ones. I'd love to give her a spending limit but there's no way to do it... and she has a track record of making purchases without checking the price first, so a free for all is out of the question.
Patents might not be needed (in the UK using something publicly is prior art anyway - no 'must be available for 2 years' rule like the US has, so anyone else would have difficulty getting a patent anyway).
It's likely that this comes under the ownership of the Health Authority, which the equipment manufacturers wouldn't want to cross...
(a) because they keep lots of lawyers on retainer, (b) because losing the contracts from an entire region of the UK (and, if they push it enough, potentially the entire UK) is not worth it... the NHS is a rather large and rather profitable customer.
Emergency dialysis uses needles. You'll get a stent if you're on it repeatedly.
The jugular is a nasty place to have it. I had mine on my wrist (no scars, thankfully, but it wasn't there long.. they put me on peritoneal dialysis as soon as I was strong enough to have the op for it).
Depends on how acute the problem is - peritoneal dialysis is a relatively slow process as it's relying on osmosis - in adults the patients are usually treated with haemodialysis first, which is a more active process. Also a patient with acute kidney failure may be so weak they wouldn't survive the operation to enable peritoneal dialysis... I'd imagine this would go double for an infant.
Everyone I've known that has worked in hospitals has had to do some stuff on the hoof. There are limited funds and provided a trained profession reckons it has a good chance of working (and there's no other choice) they'll do it - they're doctors not lawyers.
I myself had my life saved as a child by a then experimental and unapproved operation (It's now routine, in fact). I've since been on trials and also experienced the 'try this.. it might even work!' syndrome multiple times.
There are cases where that isn't required eg. sending to a public mailing list, where the act of sending implies a license to reproduce the message.
Sending between two people I'd expect to be private but you're still implicitly granting the recipient the right to own, store and archinve a copy of that mail.
Criminals were sent to the Americas as well as Australia. There was a lot of voluntary migration later but to say that the europeans didn't send *anyone* is just incorrect.
Nope good email clients block *all* images (and all attachments of all kinds including javascript). I don't want my email covered in pink ponies thank you very much.
Those systems have more spammers than nonspammers signed up to them. It simply doesn't work... in fact some of them (the one that use haikus for example) they became a near 100% perfect spam detector.
Not quite. The official didn't own the data or the computers... they are owned by the public. He had no right to grant that access and should have told them to go away and come back with a warrant.
Cisco SDM. It only works on Windows (it'll *run* on other platforms but none of the buttons work, and cisco are very plain that they only support IE+Windows).. makes me wonder why they bothered with an applet when an executable would have done just as well.

The proper response was "I think the market should at least where a robe."
Clearly, they have lost theirs, which is why they're bare.
I'd have kept it, personnally :p iMacs are cool.

Everyone's thought of that.. so there will be a dozen 'i am poor' apps on the appstore as soon as apple get around to approving them.
It's not exactly hard to write them.. even I can and my knowledge of objC is quite poor.
Really though for the joke to make any sense it would have to me a free app, or at most $0.99.
That would mean they've found a bug in the MMU that bypasses page protection.
That wouldn't be a Vista issue then but an Intel one - that'll be patched as soon as they can get another microcode revision out I expect.

Sure, but you can bet an equipment manufacturer is negotiating a deal right now.
I wonder who owns it? The Health Authority or the Doctor? I guess it depends on the contract he's under.
Hmm...
Don't plug it in:
Risk: Baby dies.
Reward: At least you didn't (directly) kill it.
Plug it in:

Reward: Baby lives, you get lots of press, someone buys your design and you never have to worry about money again.
I'd do it..

I imagine the doctor and nurse will be *extremely* well compensated for their invention as well.

It's in the Daily Fail. Of course it's bullshit - they don't print anything else.
Fox news is quality journalism compared to the Daily Fail.
Think the National Enquirer with a racist agenda and you're getting somewhat close.

I suggest some reading is in order.

Companies that spew junk at me becuae I happened to visit their site *once* get firmly reported as spam.. it's unsolicited commercial email ie. spam.

gmail uses https - nothing is sent clear text.
I can only guess what the owners of Pen Island especially if they need a therapist
Keep the people focused on the trivial and they won't notice the important stuff.
It works so well we don't realize that it's being done a lot of the time. And it's not just the US - here in the UK it's just as bad if not worse.
I can understand if the name was Cuntington
Why? If it's his name he's entitled to use it.
It doesn't matter if is name is Mr Shitbollox. He'd have enough problems with a name like that without his ISP being wankers about it.
Seriously, how often do you see Java applets?

So much for run anywhere...
