I have seen that one done on the M25 around 5:00pm on a weekday. Two nutcases (most likely Russians). One on a Bandit, the other one in a Mercedes AMG 5.5. By the way - the Mercedes managed to keep up and follow the motorcycle.
Though frankly both of them deserved a judge Dread and elimination on the spot.
More likely - limited number of Sprint subscriptions provisioned for the product.
Which reminds me - yeah, nice gadget. It has one "minor" problem - totally worthless outside the USA. An interesting way to achieve the mother of all region codings.
What for? It is an end-to-end system. You get it on the device, read it on device and do whatever you like with it on the device. It is not like you are trying to move it from one device to another and struggling with some crazy interop here. So while it may deserve cracking out of principle it is clearly not worth the effort to try to crack it. There are plenty of more deserving targets out there.
No worries, you will still get emphysema which is almost as unpleasant and tourchers you for longer.
By the way, this explains why Cannabis has a ratio of emphysema to lung cancer that is quite different from cigarettes which is something that has been suspected for a while (hard to get good data because people generally smoke both).
For example, they charge you for every kilobit starting from the first on the unlimited flat rate 3G/3GB Cellular broadband contract. So much for "flat rate unlimited". They void your phone insurance for every single fake reason you can think of.
So what they like to know if they can be even more evil and directly tell the customer to bend over (without the "or else") the way Apple does it. They would love to.
Anyway, overall, this is good for the consumer. If the court confirms that the customer has to bend over EU will tighten the regs on mobile operators in a jiffie. If the court confirms that the customer has rights, T-mob and Apple will have to bend over in a jiffie. Vodafone will promptly follow. They are simply not realising it because they are being blinded by their greed.
a bit different to what it was in 1894?. Not as far as Chinese are concerned. They are the great Middle Kingdom.
By the way as far as they are concerned such things have never happened in their history. It is only pesky foreign devils spreading malice and slur about the Chinese greatness.
And you don't even have to look one century back, the (ex)communist block provides a ton of more recent examples.
Yep. I have a vivid memory of a stand-up comedian gag in the ex-SU which got banned at the end. It was called: "Shto ohraniaesh, to imeesh". Translated into English - "You beget what you are responsible to guard."
Just about anywhere where some people were given enough unchecked power, some enterprising souls proceeded to sell their influence for cash.. - Welcome to the Britain of Antony Bliar (and beyond). Today's example http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/northern_ireland/7100695.stm. Tomorrow will be another one. And another. And another. And guess what, the corruption is so pervasive that nobody will ever get punished. Once you are past the "Lord Levi" point you can do whatever the f*** you want.
No. I seem to be dissatisfied that the cretins who develop bluez have disabled all methods for pairing except through a HAL registered PIN agent. There is no longer a way to specify a hardwired PIN in your hcid.conf. Any PINs there do not work. Same for simple password agents specified there. Only the ones registered through the cretinous HAL framework work. As a result your pairing works from time to time and when it works requires one of the gui-pin apps which register via HAL. Situation common across most post-2006 distros. Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, you name it.
You obviously have not had to try to pair devices to the latest version of the bluetooth stack on Linux. It has gone more MicroSHITTY than microsoft (gnome influence at its best). Works 5% of the time and with gui only. Sometimes even that does not work and you have to help the GUI by doing manual command line connections. Frankly I would much rather shake the two things together until they connect. Takes less time (and is less frustrating).
WTF do you think Kyocera makes? I suspect it used WinCE or something else which was MSFT based for its printers before so it had the antialising patents bundled. Now it had to buy them separately.
If he did not steal it USSR would have had no bomb for 3-4 more years until the early 50-es. USA may have probably stated WW3 by that time. Just around the time the bomb was ready. I would rather not guess the location for "testing" the prototype under those circumstances.
It is the same as with Beria. Regardless of what do I think about him and regardless of the fact that he sentenced to death many millions he has to be given the credit for "Stalin passing away in his sleep from a stroke". If that did not happen Koba would have started WW3 around 54.
So morals aside as a result of such happy or less happy circumstances we are not all glowing in the dark. Let's drink to that.
Yeah... Just a bit of Halifax here and there... Nothing major... After all, having one of your cities wiped out in an incident related to the war is nothing in particular we should worry about and notice.
This is of course besides having one of the largest forces (relative to its population size) in France and one of the largest (relative to population and force sizes) casualty rates. Nothing significant in particular ya know.
Regardless what they are given as requirements they will produce garbageware. It took 1 year and nearly 200 minor revisions of the O2 XDA code load for it to stop crashing. Even after that it was a piece of garbageware. Their recent Blackberry ripoff (Escalibur) when released crashed left right and center several times a day just by being connected to the network. And so on.
None the less, they continue to produce phones for operators for a simple reason - They do exactly what the operator tells them as far as look and feel. It is a classic case of outsourcing in its worst form - a company which will respond to any query with "yes". From there on its actual product quality does not matter.
I suggest you check with the Humboldt foundation and ask them exactly what happened with the Aphaservers they tried to ship to the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences in July 1998 and the full list of people who knew about their arrival as well as their affiliation. Nuff said. Have a nice day.
You have quite obviously never ever met the people who work for it in the third world.
There is a reason why Microsoft wins most of its market wars in emerging markets ya know. And it is definitely not by playing "fair" and obeying the law. Sometimes it fires in its face (like the case with the teacher from Samara this year), but usually it wins.
12 or so years ago the days I sysadmined in an educational/research outfit in Eastern Europe. There was a 100% correlation between the so called local Microsoft rep for Education knowing about a shipment with Unix kit and the kit stolen at the cargo terminal. This was before the days of CCTV in the cargo areas at Sofia Airport so the interested parties had on the average between 2 and 12 hours to deal with all interesting containers and packages before they went through customs. In order to do that they needed one thing - to know which container is interesting.
Once we made sure that the aforementioned individual no longer had any information the shipments started arriving unmolested (not counting a dent or two in transit).
On top of that the aforementioned rep was handing out cracked copies of MSFT products the way drug dealers hand out cocaine laced candy to kids to anyone who wanted them.
This all continued until the country economy picked up enough. And then, you know the drill... Bill Gates having a meeting with the president on the subject of rampant software piracy and so on. The rep went to work elsewhere and claimed that he never ever had any relation with Microsoft. And so on...
Yeah...
Let's not discuss a certain Australian female athlete taking a husband from the Ethiopian long distance running team for purposes of selective breeding a few years back. Let's not discuss the actual genealogy and breeding of this one: http://www.musclemayhem.com/front/content/view/238/120/
Though it looks like her mom and pop have supplemented that with the "traditional remedies" AKA steroids as well. And so on...
One of my uncles was a contractor in Angola during the civil war and he nearly went to jail for dangerous driving after coming back.
Apparently many anti-tank mines have a delayed fuse so that they blow up under the middle of the tank. If you drive at 70mph+ it blows up behind you. After 3 years of working down there he was having a panic attack every time his speed dropped under 50.
Frankly if they can get away with reprogramming without having to undergo therapy they are very lucky.
There are more Freudian slips in the article per line than in anything I have ever seen.
The bigger boat marketing name is "Protector", right? Well in the title of the article it is called "Predator" and on the second page "Interceptor". That is where the laugh begins, but it does not stop there. On the second page you get "The 55-mpg Interceptor could become the long-range patrol boat of the future, while the jetski-size Sentry (inset) could help a terrorist plot such as Al Qaedas attack on the USS Cole in December 2000". This is about right. If you can have an automated boat loaded with explosives why risk a suicide run.
And so on... Frankly someone has gotten way too drunk on Quinetic bill before writing that... Or it is a "truth will show itself" case... Dunno...
"Because people are reading Cosmo in the breakout room" (ie: use common fucking sense) is, tragically, not a line of reasoning that will be paid attention to.
Than do not be a wimp, put an IT line of reasoning on it. Ask the stupid b*** if she would allow you scan it and send it all employees in the company. Been there, done that. She never tried that one again.

Check the so called "Torture" dialplan for asterisk. It already does most of that. Cheers,
Incoming buzzword alert!!! Run for best of bread cover against unknown threats.
Let's balance things a bit, shall we?

Neither.
It is a HTC phone. This says it all.

Just read what I posted :-) "Found it" in the sense "found references about it on the net" :-)
Jokes aside search for "Shiva Crater". Just found it myself and it sounds like the crater you are looking for.
