Should we disallow those wearing corrective lenses from competing in sharpshooting competitions? Should we disallow anyone who have had surgery to compete against those who have not? What about those athletes who eat specialized diets and work out in elevated altitudes to better train their bodies? If we really wanted to "level" the playing field there are much better ways of doing so.
There are exceptions to the Fourth Amendment bar against warrantless searches. Law enforcement officers can enter private property without a warrant if there is an emergency. For instance, if they hear gunfire or a child begging for their lives, the cops can break in without going to a court first. Pretty much as long as it was reasonable to think there was a bona fide emergency, these searches are upheld. I think a similar provision would apply here.
Meh. The Internet and electronic technology in general has saved a lot more energy than it has wasted, if you control for the growth in business and communication. With e-mails and the like, you don't have to send as many letters or even print out as much documents. Less stuff has to be sent via airplanes and trucks, and less paper is being wasted.
Sure. Go shoot someone because he's spamming you. Then lets go get the Goatse guy. After that, let's find the mopes creating the pop ups and shit. When we're all done with that, let's shoot the pornographers taking advantage of 18 year old girls. We'll clean up the Internet, one body at a time.
Or you can go back to playing XBox because we know no one is going to bother with such a crazy idea.
Whether or not Sturgeon killed anyone is irrelevant. He admitted to killing eight people and that seriously calls his judgment, credibility, and sanity into question. Sturgeon wasn't called as a witness was because the judge already excluded his admission of eight murders. The prosecution would never call a prime suspect and the defense wouldn't do so if they can't peg him as a psycho because Sturgeon hates Reiser and would do anything to get him in jail.
This is the credited answer. At first, I was leaning towards being cynical and thought that the lawyers just wanted to pad the bill. But we're talking about the United States of America deciding to spy on "terrorists" and their attorneys. I mean, "The Justice Department does not deny that the government has monitored phone calls and e-mail exchanges between lawyers and their clients as part of its terrorism investigations in the United States and overseas. *** In a terrorism-financing investigation centered on the offices of an Islamic charity here, the government mistakenly provided defense lawyers in August 2004 with what the lawyers say was a logbook of intercepted phone calls between the charity's lawyers in Washington, D.C., and clients in Saudi Arabia."
If the government is tapping your phone lines, what makes you think they aren't intercepting your e-mail? I'm sure PGP would avoid problems like the U.S. government installing a keylogger on your system, or just sending a national security letter demanding access to your e-mails on pain of imprisonment as an accomplice to terror. Oh wait, it doesn't.
I'd rather take the airplane flight be more sure that I'm not getting bugged.
The prosecutor was also able to exclude the testimony of a guy called Sturgeon, who admitted to killing at least eight people and was having an affair with Hans Reiser's wife. If his testimony were allowed, it'd be the battle of the two weirdos and Hans, being the guy in a murder case who hasn't admitted to murdering, probably would have came out on top.
Patching all the systems in the world in one shot would be terrible if the patch was defective and rendered everything useless, wouldn't it? Some enterprises do not update their systems until enough time has passed that they are pretty certain that the update is not going to kill their systems. If you patch simultaneously, there wouldn't be any guinea pigs to warn of bad updates.
Dude, if you don't want Google indexing your house, you should have posted a ROBOTS.TXT to stop their crawlers from going through your site. I don't know why Google is getting sued with this BS.
Rambus was once an innovator in the field that shipped products. However, the most reprehensible thing they did was to draw their patents to cover SDRAM products during the prosecution process while taking part in the standards-setting committee. In other words, their original filings did not cover the product, so they slowly adjusted their patent claims to grab that subject matter. Prosecution remains a secret for quite a while, so Rambus basically bamboozled the JDEC into having to pay royalties.
Wrongo! The United States wanted Chen Shui Bian to win the election so Taiwan would continue to be a thorn at the side of China. The United States does not want China to make peace with Taiwan because there's the real prospect of them getting together and expelling the Seventh Fleet. Then America would lose a foothold in the region. As long as there is China/Taiwan problems, the US can sell weapons to Taiwan and keep a presence there.
Everyone knows that China has nukes that can hit Taiwan. Three nukes might hurt China, but one nuke will end Taiwan. With that kind of math, Taiwan would have to be stupid to try to play this MAD.
The fuzes in question are sophisticated and highly-specialized devices meant to precisely trigger the implosion of the warhead. The technology involved is very complicated and top-secret. The export of these switches (fuzes) is tightly-controlled because they are basically used only for nuclear bombs.
I was thinking of this guy who stole body parts from corpses, falsified documents, and then sold the parts for use as implants. The guy sold tissue that came from HIV and hepatitis victims, and sold bone tissue from corpses whose cancer had spread to their bones.
The grave robbers in this case stole parts from people who died of hepatitus, HIV, and other highly-contagious and deadly diseases. Setting aside concern for the family of the dead; think about the living who receive bone implants from an AIDS victim.
Forget about the instances where Google loses your mail but having an archive of all of your e-mail would be useful if you're forced to be offline, and need to access your mail. God knows that's why I POP my Gmail to my laptop: so I can refer to my mail as I work on the plane.
The story has the ring of truth to it. I was going from JFK to LAX last Thursday and the TSA scanner operator picked my cash clip out of the X-Ray machine and examined it for about a minute. The cash clip was shiny, so I understand why he was interested, but it was still annoying standing there barefoot waiting for him to finish.
The astronauts are seated in the capsule during launch. The emergency system is basically a rocket on top of the capsule. If there is an emergency, the rocket fires and pulls the capsule away from the stack.

Psssht. Do you think cops beating people up with batons and applying chokeholds would be SAFER than a Taser? Please. Tell that to Rodney King.

I would bit-copy all of the hard drive data first. Losing all of his digital information because of a boo-boo would really suck.

I think the plan is to have a MBR virus plant a rootkit that pwns the OS and zombies the system without anyone realizing what's going on.

Ten years ago, my PC had 8 megs of system RAM. My laptop now has four gigs of RAM. In ten more years, I am sure we'll have a terabyte of RAM.

You'll be responsible if this happens to your sister, right?
