Most states have the same law. If you are in the act of committing a felony, and someone dies as a result, you are guilty of murder. Makes sense to me.
Of course, but they are actively utilizing additional analytics programs as well, just to make sure. Obviously visitors IPs will be in the server log, as will be the referrer...
Actually sailing ships required the destruction of vast forests (one of the reasons Britain wanted North American colonies was for the wood to build ships with). They generally didn't last that long and had to be replaced frequently. So their effect on the environment wasn't minimal.
The day before travel, eat meals consisting of, beans, broccoli, eggs, protein power and buttermilk - this is guaranteed to produce copious amounts of gas, at least for me. - Consume what works best for you. When they grab your crotch let fly. As an added bouns don't shower for a couple of days and wear stinky sweaty workout clothes - the ones you took off at the gym and stuffed in your gym bag a few days ago. Too bad about the poor fuckers that sit next to you on a 5 hour flight though, if you're feeling nice bring fresh clothes and beano on the plane.
Opening a closed door to enter someone else's residence is breaking and entering whether or not the door was locked. A closed door means, ask before entering, and even if you ask to enter and are given permission it doesn't mean you can walk out with the family silver.
if the door is open it's simply trespassing.
This sounds like neither to me. The guy's computer asked if it could come in, the server said yes, come on in. THe guy's computer asked if it could please stream the content, the server said yes again.
From my point of view the question is, did the guy hack in to find the stream and post a link or was it simply where you would expect to find it and the owner screwed up?
To close the loop with your analogy, if I leave my door open, and leave a note that says take what you want, I don't think I'll be able to have any one arrested or get compensation from my insurance company, even if I didn't intend for that consequence.
This sounds like a case of over-zealous prosecution, assuming the facts are as presented...
If I happen to see them doing deliveries I ask them not to leave one and they don't. Otherwise, the trash can is between the end of the house and the door...
The only question is what are you going to do about it?
Drive, and not fly international until this retarded behavior by the totalitarian fucktards in DC either fix the mess or get strung up.
Neither of which will happen. If a 2 year investigation of Charlie Rangle can find him "guilty" on 13 of 14 charges, some of them quite illegal as well ad HE violations, and all he gets is a letter of reprimand, do you think any of these douche bags are going to clean up their act and risk their beuqacratic positions of power and prestige? (that's a rhetorical question) These fuckers need to be carried out naked* and stripped of their power.
*(except Janet Napolitano, she needs to leave her clothes on as she's done enough damage already)
This. I used to hold Apple stock, and I learned not to watch the stock after these announcements. Apple is a heavily traded stock and people make (and lose) a lot of money churning the stock. All-in-all though, I find this announcement to be underwhelming. I know that a lot of people consider the Beatles to be one of the top bands if not the top band, but really? Dr. Ebbetts solved this problem long ago, and if you're a true Beatles fan you've got the music in iTunes, or wherever, already.
I just torrented a bands entire discography last night, simply because I don't want to spend the time ripping 30 CDs. I bought the vinyl, re-bought the CDs when they were releases in the 80's ($25 a pop in 1986 dollars, or $48) and I bought all the new stuff on CD when it came out. I have no intention of paying $150 or $200 to download compressed.mp3/4 files for music which in most cases I've paid for twice, and in some cases three times.
This is a huge project, and in many cases from what I've seen, even sites that are compliant are not that useable. It's not that you shouldn't make your site accessible, more customers = more money, right? It's that the "experts" that write these regulations are lawyers and bureaucrats that typically know fuck all about the industry they are regulating from a practical point of view, and are often driven by experts who have skin in the game.
I also take issue with some of the points in the article.:
Firstly, only about.3% of Americans (the article is about the ADA before you jump on me about being US centric) are deaf, and only about 2% have severe hearing impairment. I'm not sure why the deaf are included since the web is primarily a visual medium. Will we be expected to provide transcripts for YouTube videos now? Will Apple need to provide transcripts for all the songs sold on Itunes? Blind people on the other hand account for 7.5 Million according to the Braille Institute. I have no clue where the AP comes up with the 40 million number, that is off by a huge margin.
Secondly, I also disagree with the statement that "40 Million blind and deaf Americans stand to reap the biggest benefits". Actually, no. First it's nowhere close to 40 million, second the people that will benefit the most are people like my self who will bill out hundreds of hours of time offering services to make sites ADA compliant. I think this is a BAD IDEA, but I will lobby my local congressman to support it because if it passes I will make money. That's the bottom line. If the Feds are going to force shit down our throats I'm going to get my piece of the pie. The parent says it's easy and not a big deal. From what I've read and done in the past, it's a lot of extra work that clients don't want to pay for. That's OK, the government will force their hand and I'll get more work in the long run - the web is too important for businesses to simply say screw it and turn off their sites.
Third, the idea of screens on the back of seats in a theater is simply, fucking stupid. A person texting 5 rows up is distracting with their bright little cell phone screen, how bad is it going to be with screens on the bask of seats? Going to the movies is borderline now with the prices, all the crinkling food wrappers, and rude people talking to the screen. Movies cost too much now. Who's going to pay for all this technology? a theater owner who's making about 5% margin if they're lucky?
Finally, I take issue with the parent's statement:
It's not like the web would lose anything but dead weight...
Who made you the arbiter of good taste. I must have missed the appointment of the Quality Web Content Czar while I was reading a magazine on the crapper.
But what percentage have one-face worlds?
"This provision was adopted in 1988, well before digital music files became available on the Internet"
So in other words "We get to bend the law to suit our corporate overlord's desires."
Don't you think you might be taking that out of context of what he really said? He (Alito) said he wanted to hear the case.
Most states have the same law. If you are in the act of committing a felony, and someone dies as a result, you are guilty of murder. Makes sense to me.
I wonder how they think about that statement in Palestina and Gaza.
If they're sane they concur. If you live in Palestine or Gaza you probably don't want Iran using nukes in Israel.
Of course, but they are actively utilizing additional analytics programs as well, just to make sure. Obviously visitors IPs will be in the server log, as will be the referrer...
Also note that they are also collecting IP address information of people who visit the site...
try { var piwikTracker = Piwik.getTracker(pkBaseURL + "piwik.php", 1); piwikTracker.trackPageView(); piwikTracker.enableLinkTracking(); } catch( err ) {}
They also have google analytics turned on - UA-19806388-1
Facial. Peter North is not pleased.
A duck can't even carry a coconut without sinking.
No, but a swallow can.

You clearly have no idea why people are upset about this.
Because there are no children in line...

Starbucks, GM, AT&T + Verizon, etc, etc. Majority share != quality products.
So the Wow started in 1995 and not 2007? Who knew?
...imperative that Congress move on legislation that would expand government controls and set requirements to make systems safer.
From the same legislative body that brought you a series of tubes not serviced by dump trucks.
Be afraid. Be very afraid. 10 to 1 they bring in experts from Microsoft to help craft the legislation...

We switched to Kerio Mailserver and haven;t looked back...
