That advice also violates the Supreme Law which these agents have pledged to uphold - "No person shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself." But you know, the government officials don't give a damn about their Oath to uphold that law.
Not quite. That's why they invite you to do it; they don't have to therefore do any actual work in gathering evidence to present in a court of law. It's almost a truism that "you can't talk yourself out of jail but you can certainly talk yourself into it."
could someone please tell me how I will vote in the next election? I'm getting excited to know if I'll vote my conscience this time or if I will cross over to the other side.
The concept of cloud computing is utilizing resources that are not located within one's general geographical area or the resources, at minimum, aren't owned by you, is that correct?
If this is the case, how then would companies and people in general be persuaded to buy the hardware to run all of these resources? Or maybe what I'm asking is who is willing to pay for all of the cloud support?
Does Microsoft say, for example, that the new Office 2012 is entirely cloud-based; no need for apps on your local machine, but they own the server farms to host all of the thousands of Office cloud apps that people are running?
Maybe I'm confused.
Not. Even. Close.
One simple example amongst many, the US Bill of Rights is a limitation on the powers of the federal government; the British equivalent are "rights" bestowed upon the citizenry and may be changed and removed at the pleasure of the ruling body.
Turned out that it was reporting the crack program that allows me to run Duke Nukem without the CD -- since the netbook doesn't have a damn CD and I own the copy of Duke Nukem. MacAfraid called it "a program you might not want to have".
I concur with McAfee. Duke Nukem was a program you definitely did not want to have...
Hydro power requires particular geographic features, so we probably won't be building many more of those,
Geez, I know! I wish that the US had some of those thingies... what do ya call 'em... those huge pieces of land that are right next to water. That'd be awesome of we had some of them.
but nuclear power plants can be built everywhere, and the only reason we're not building them is because people are irrationally scared.
You would probably be better putting it inside a camera, with some harmless looking snaps in the DCIM folder. If they use the camera to look at the pictures, they most likely won't find anything else.
You know, one could do it even better and use those programs that hide the data within the pics themselves.
"Dan Berry writes in the NY Times that the State of Alabama is spending millions of dollars in federal stimulus money to combat Cogongrass, a.k.a. the perfect weed, the killer weed, and the weed from another continent. A weed that 'evokes those old science-fiction movies in which clueless citizens ignore reports of an alien invasion.'
Wow. At first I read "...spending millions of dollars in federal stimulus money to combat Congress..." and I thought, it's about time somebody fought Congress! Those guys really do seem like weeds.
Sorry for duplicate reply, but, just why do parents think the "I lost a lot of respect in you and quite a bit of trust" line works? Now maybe I was just special, but whenever my parents tried to pull that shit on me I just laughed about it and did the exact same wrong thing next time, often simply because they would get 'upset' about it. Seriously, there is nothing more amusing in the world than making your parents snap at ya. It's funny, they're so powerless to do anything they just end up shouting and making themselves feel strong.
I can't speak for others; in my case, I reinforce the idea that trust and respect are far more valuable in life than anything else. They get punished too, of course, my kids. It's not just one or ther other.
And it sounds like by the time you were old enough to laugh at your parents when the tried to pull that shit on you, it was already too late. I guess if you think that your behavior is not dysfunctional, then more power to you.
I used to date a girl who called her pussy a "nook." I succesfully opened it many times :)
Yeah, but did she notice?
no driving while getting a blow-job Well, for /.ers, that's pretty much a guarantee...

Glad I belong to the Church of Latte-day Saints then!
I, for one, welcome our new corny overlords. /obligatory
Look under masonry. Or the Masons. Whichever.
Try upgrading to a version of Outlook that isn't so archaic. I have 10GB+ PSTs laying around.
Seriously? And this is brag-worthy how again?
Now this post was funny up until I realized that it wasn't about the "wife 1.0" jokes anymore.

Wait, what? You're not seriously suggesting a slashdotter had teh sexks? [Cite please.] [And pictures.]
I'm 25, but my first coding experience was 22 years ago.
Ah, but "binary blobs" in your diapers don't count.

The site's accessibility failures which are shared by another showcase government-transparency site, USAspending.gov are nonetheless easily seen."
Does making the site so bad that even a blind user could see the faults count as a success or failure?

People are irradiationally scared, you mean.

What's wrong with Einar? My cat's name is Einar.
Okay, that's cool. If I misunderstood then I apologize.
Good point. The OP should take examples of real emails that employees have sent and read them aloud. End of speech.
Two grand and some gift cards? SERIOUSLY? You'd go to jail for that?
Dude, seriously. They were Walmart gift cards. What normal person wouldn't spend a few years at Club Fed for those bad boys?
