Should he have been charged? Maybe, maybe not. But the option was always open to him to plead not guilty, and go to trial. I suspect that he would not have been convicted.
Whether a custodial sentence is appropriate is entirely another matter, but that really is a side issue.
Such as if you happen to have fasted for Lent and shows symptoms of jaundice due to your biochemical abnormality.
When it cannot be assumed to be the cause without further testing. Further harm - paient assumes that the reason that they have gone bright yellow is due to GS & does not seek medical help. (GS only causes mildly raised levels of Bilirubin.)
Wrong. Gilbert Syndrome is a biochemical abnormality of no practical significance. I'm afraid you've just proved the point of those with whom you disagree.
"The reason for this statement by the UK government is very simple - it has intranet and business systems in virtually every government department which work only with IE. They frequently ridiculously old versions at that - IE6 take a bow - giving the lie to the "latest, fully patched" comment anyway.
There is no way that the UK government is going to incur the conversion costs for these systems at this moment given the state of its books at the moment. Stating that IE was insecure would create an inexorable pressure to do exactly that.
This statement has nothing to with security, and everything to do with internal government politics.
Speeding is definitely a criminal offence. Trust me, this fact is currently causing me a world of grief. It may be dealt (mainly) with by administrative rather than judicial process, but that does not change the fact it is a criminal offence.
This was the point where we lost the right to keep our mouth shut & not have it held against us, for two or people to stand in a field (might be waiting for a rave, you see) or to walk along the street without being randomly stopped and searched by the police
...at least in the UK. Carphone Warehouse [carphonewarehouse.com] have been offering laptops for 'free' for several months if you take a £20-30 ($30-45) plan

I think that was his point - that he hadn't found an easy self-hosted alternative. Do you have one?
...a raspberry pi is half the cost of this,

...thought this was anything other than bullshit? How did this make the frontpage?
So what exactly is the problem that we're trying to solve?
No, increasingly they type themselves (hospitals are falling for the notion that this is a cost saving) or use voice to text software.

How can you have a kid old enough to be left alone but not responsible enough to be trusted with a mobile?

Ask any of my fellow Brits, I bet none of them can definitively name a date when the government anti-freedom agenda began
I can. 3 Nov 1994. Date of royal assent to The Criminal Justice and Public Order Act.

and sure as hell not for a child who doesn't know the differences between right and wrong.
Sorry, your child is old enough to drive but doesn't know right from wrong? You haven't made much of a job of being a parent, have you?
