How do you know it's not a case so important and transcendental that absolute secrecy is required to protect British society as a whole?
We only know it's a terrorism trial.
Maybe AB downloaded a Justin Bieber song. Maybe CD whistled a Disney tune during a bus trip without paying the representation fees. Maybe AB is brown skinned!
See? Now I'm afraid. I hope they have already been executed, just to be sure. Or sent to an american torture camp, to be exchanged for the next marine that's abducted by a pirate arab communist hacker terro-jihadist.
Upon reading this article I miss: - More information on which are those options. - Whether there are packages that already include these options. - A comprehensive "where to buy" list. Ideally, with a price reference. - Financing offers. In case I can't buy it today but want to add it to my mortgage. - More pictures. For reference, the traditional "Shiny car with bikini models." can suffice. - A video where a pro pilot drives the car while describing why it is the best feeling he's ever had since he won the world cup, or something.
And, finally, a big yellow "ADD TO CART" button.
Optionally, there could also be a "Direct CHECKOUT" button that charges the cost to my google wallet and gets me the car by the time I get home from work.
To expect that you can come in and use public infrastructure and funds to build a network and then be free of any regulation is absurd
To expect a government to take decisions based on reason, morality or legality is naive. In what regards corporations, the only law is money, the only lawyers are lobbyists and the only judges are (corrupt) politicians.
If Verizon has made about $4.4 billion in additional revenue in New York City alone, they clearly had enough to pay for a lot of campaigning, lobbying and bribery.
I'm about to buy a graphics card. Watch Dogs comes free with it. What are my options?
1 - Ask somebody else to open the box and throw the game away before I see/touch it. 2 - Save that innocent person's soul and do the throwing away myself, even at the risk of physically touching the Ubisoft game at some point (a tear in the hazmat suit) and suffering a painful mind-death.
I'm not a bad person, but fear is pushing me towards the first option.
Lots of people care about virtual persons beyond what would be purely rational. Just as someone may cry because of what happens in a novel, someone might get upset for losing a player in his virtual sports team and someone else might not do a certain quest because they'd feel bad about what happens to the virtual NPC.
I've always believed that those who behave as beasts while protected by the anonymity of the internet, or of a game, are actually just showing their true nature.
However, I see it as a sign of civilization to have the worse among us trolling online or being sadist psychopaths in video games, instead of torturing animals, or people.
I believe there will always be evil people, and the best we can do is what we're doing. Giving then a medium to express their rotten nature, that does the least possible amount of harm.
Beware thee who tries to compile a list of examples of wrong-thinking that have delayed an IT project for five years. For printing this book will consume all paper, all trees, and mean the end of life as we know it.
Even I can answer your question. "Finding loopholes to hide in IS obeying the law. Otherwise one wouldn't be able to hide in them."
So your question sounds like : "Do you intend to ever obey what people who don't know the law believe the law says? Or will you continue to follow the actual law as written."
Slashdot Mirror
I very seldom agree with your neologismphobic comments, but on this point, your rhetoric is just as elegant and witty as usual.
It's a misleading title.
It should say: "The government is expected to no longer track your cell phone without a warrant, by very naive people."
Oh, right, of course ... corporations are people with free speech, and entitled to actively lie to us.
What? That is utter nonsense. Corporations are not people!
Corporations are "Very Rich People". A class with little or no relation to "people".
VRPs have the inalienable right to do whatever they very much please and it is legal by Axiom*.
*: The axiom being: "Legal is what very rich people decide it is at any given point."
Every once in a while, a universe is born. The random quarks align and PUFF, big bang, expansion, all the shebang.
Stars appear, planets appear, then life and, eventually, intelligent life.
And in every universe, invariably, the first intelligent species thinks "The odds of us being the first ones are ridiculously microscopic!".
But someone has to be the first. Someone has to be the one who visits the others to tell them "Hey! You aren't alone. There's at least two of us!".
We are the precursors.
It is not porn.
As long as it keeps being not porn it won't have the required money to put one on every living room.
Someone smart and a bit rich must make the porn version of this and become much richer and famous.
(Unless someone finds a way to turn this into an exercise machine.)
All I got out of the Illiad was that soldiers liked to grill and eat sausages and do weird stuff with thighbones.
Well, that's way less awkward than the other way around.
Yes. It's unfortunate. It takes away the once in a lifetime opportunity of breathing 96% CO2.
"Do owls exist?"
"Are there hats?"
*Pro tip*: From a distance. Dirty, long-haired dogs are surprisingly similar to goats.
It was so much nicer when we could just attribute disasters to the Gods, sacrifice one or two goats and all be happy about it.
How the fuck do you blow $200+ million a year being a registrar?
$20M CEO. ...
$15M CFO.
$15M CIO.
Why do you imply he would need a pre-made operating system? Are you insinuating anyone with a seven digit user ID is unable to make his own OS?
Thank you. For a moment there I was disappointed no one had given that point of view in Slashdot.
You don't know they brought back capital punishment. And if they told you, they'd have to kill you.
Secretly.
I'm pretty sure they were referring to the MODERN justice system,
Don't you mean the Scottish justice system?

So... the "Over" was figurative?

I don't think I'll be strong enough.
I'm sorry.
God have mercy on our souls.

That was also my first reaction.

I'm surprised they don't test the mpg by throwing the cars from a high altitude bomber.
Even I can answer your question. "Finding loopholes to hide in IS obeying the law. Otherwise one wouldn't be able to hide in them."
So your question sounds like : "Do you intend to ever obey what people who don't know the law believe the law says? Or will you continue to follow the actual law as written."
Or the brute force solution. Break it apart and reform it in the correct color order. It leaves less permanent damage than fiddling with the stickers.
