And I foresee a list of sources for which Custom and Excise disallow imports unless the package comes with a valid goods manifest (they are entitled to do this).
What happens next is that if it comes with a valid goods manifest you get whacked with both customs fees (10-30%) and VAT calculated after the customs fee (that is the way it is done).
Frankly, I would rather pay just the VAT and buy goods from someone in the white list whose stuff does not get stopped at customs
At least to a phone you can get on the plane (one that fits in your pocket).
The British Civil Aviation authority tested with a transmitter that was constantly transmitting at 5 watts. That is the maximum allowed power of a car phone (anyone seen a GSM car phone?). And they barely got some interference in some parts of the aircraft. If they would have tested with real mobile power and with real transmission (which is not contiguous) they would have been unable to show interference even with pre-1989 avionics.
If the code is based on a defined spec or sample RFC or example spec code the comments will be the same or virtually the same as they mark the spec points or are the description of the alogorithm cut-and-pasted.
Basically it is the "start with the sample code and write your own case". Code at the end usually differs, but the comments largely stay the same.

Hm. Even according to SCO they have the "copyrights necessary to exercise". This is as open to interpretation as it can get and even more some... Hmm... IANAL but if I understand correctly the interpretation is still in Novell's hands. If SCO objects to what Novell allows it can sue them as well.
Anyway I am happy Heise finally printed in a proper big publication that SCO is not Unix. It is not certified (I am getting thongue muscle cramps from repeating this and RSI from tying it again and again).
Fire the entire board of directors. A severance package of one pack of oreos and cab fare
No need for. Skip the severance package under a breach of contract clause. As the contract sure says something about "protecting the interests of the shareholders". And if the majority shareholder objects... Hm....
1. Found a company on the Cayman Islands. 2. Buy some call origination in the US and a voice over IP trunk to your call droid center located in India. 3. Telemarket as much as you like. All they can do is force your telco to close your lines. You are out of FTC jurisdiction.

Nope. The case warrants an update. If I understand the babelfish horror correctly the German court has slapped an injunction on SCO on claiming that Linux infringes on anything and put a tag on it of 250000 Eu for any further violations. That is the first decision in a court of law on the case.
Actually I do not quite understand IBM. Why the hell are they giving this a chance to be viewed in Utah? They could have countersued in a suitable country, obtained an injunction and got a relief exceeding SCO market's cap in Germany ten times by now. That is based on the value of their AIX business alone (before counting linux and linux related hardware in).
After that SCO would have simply folded in. And we would have all been happy to follow another soap opera
Interesting... killing hard drives remotely... Very effing interesting. I do not think that I will give any machine with this BIOS a security clearance for being used in our company... I do not like our disks being wiped by the passing Script Kiddi0tz
If us is US (the east coast), Cumbre Viejo would have wiped it twice by then. Actually it will do so within the next 100 years. Considering that the wave at Washington DC will be 15m+ methinks that it may not be such a bad idea.

Ever thought of the fact that that commodity computer video cameras and computers are capable of doing image recognition nowdays? Cannot be SA-ed either.
The rest of the world should be embarassed that they were willing to leave Saddam in power.
With the other alternative being the creation of the biggest fundamenatlist state on the planet I will not be embarassed by a single split second. I would have gladly kissed his ass. After all I do not like the appearance of an Iran double the size, with nuclear and biological weapon capacity and not under an embargo. Does not exactly make my world go around with Israel having 60+ warheads next door...
You are kidding right? Or you do not count iraqi civilians for humans? Which of these?
Note that Iraq in the basra region still has a cancer rate of 10 times the rest of the world after the previous Bush bombed the shit out of all oil refineries and the nuclear power station there. That meant thousands of horrid deaths from cancers over the last 10 years. Current invasion is by noway different so people will die with blood pouring out of all orifices and with lumps all over for years to come.
That is besides all those who have been bombed out of existance.
Not if they are under different national jurisdictions. No way in hell can SCO hold off a suit in 190+ different jurisdictions. It will collapse economically before even the trials are started.
I keep reading this and every time I want to f*** cream.
SCO Unix does not exist. SCO Openserver does not have a X-Open Unix 95 or Unix 98 certification. It has no right to be called Unix and have not had such a right at least for the last 8 years.
(Unixware is a different matter).
Actually he has the most impressive track record of any living aircraft designer. Only a few dead people like Toupolev and one of the McDonnel-Douglas guys come close in terms of closeness of the design and concept to a working plane (and the lack of rows of pictures dead test pilots in the briefing room).
It is also not about tourists. All space agencies have no research budget to work on new concepts. They can barely operate what they have got with what they are given. So they are entrenched and new things can come only from small private ventures.
A good example is the launch from floating platforms. The idea has been on the table for ages and still no space agency has made it happen. It took an outsider to break the entrenchment.
And the interesting bit conceptually is not the spaceship. It is the White Knight.
Multiple attempts have been made in the past to use planes as a launch platform. Most have gone nowhere because a general purpose plane cannot reach altitude and or speed to replace a proper stage 1 rocket.
Only exemption seemed to be a project to use russian backfire class supersonic bombers and the second stage of some american missile (forgot which one). Unfortunately it died off due to lack of funding, agreement, etc. Otherwise it had a chance as the backfire has both the thrust and operating ceiling to do this.
Anyway, the backfire project is apparently dead. So this seems to be the only game in town in terms of proving that the 60 years old "rocket on top of a rocket" design can now be abandoned in favour of something more environmentally and economically sound.
Have the US DOD sponsor you for life so you do not sell it to Clnl Cadaffi.
Actually, it will be for the second time. They already are paying. That is after Burt showed that he can develop and build a fully functional fighter jet on a 10M budget to cost under 2M a piece. Which also has a negligeable radar sig due to the fact that engine is one of the very few metal parts in it.
Nothing new here. Even no need for taking tourists. DOD will foot the bill. Once again...

Rafflesias, all of them. Smell of various decaying flash, look like normal cactii. Originally from South Africa
More likely a class action suit on behalf of pissed of investors.
It was brought up on the day of the earnings call you silly.That is the only reason for the delay ;-)
It is called "Open fire with the main armament from point blank range".
Yes. Look at the "do not use" and missing kernel numbers on www.kernel.org and "Heads UP" announcements on bsd-current.
