Don't see how this is a good move for UK. Just brings Assange back into the news again AND makes him more believable.
Even if the crime does call for a jail term, if he's stuck in an embassy for years, then that's already his jail term. An embassy is probably more pleasant than prison but still.
It is better than prison because it has better people in it. BTW that is a way to improve the prisons.
We've been at war for 10 years and they haven't seen combat. If they were usable they would have been involved (instead, they were restricted because of the oxygen system issue). Hell, we sent B-2s over Afghanistan. You think they were flown because of their sophisticated anti-aircraft system?
If there were working Stinger missiles left, then maybe they were.
Hard to say, really. They may still be out there, or they may have been rounded up and (mostly) buried when the region was converted to Christianity back in the 16th-17th century or so. Probably a bit of both, considering that scientists are still stumbling across the things.
Hell, for all we know, they may have suffered the same fate as all too many Egyptian mummies, which were used as literal firewood and train boiler fuel, among other things.
I think a better name would be Super Mega Ultra Golem RAM. (in other words, SMUGRAM)... that was terrible. I couldn't think of a word for G so I just put Golem. I'm going to go cry in the stationary cupboard now. I'm sorry.
How is my doing anything I want to any piece of equipment I own in any way "theft"? When I was a teen in the '60s, guitar fuzzboxes cost well over a hundred dollars, I'd make them out of a ten dollar transistor radio and two dollars worth of parts.
I guess I was a theif, then. I was always hacking hardware. I guess I'm still a thief, because I'm in the process of turning an old computer into a DVR.
Nothing you describe is theft. Sorry if you thought otherwise.
Or instead it might be used to refer to those individuals who, possessing the wisdom of experience, decide that the cultural demarcations of "maturity" are non-productive, even counter-productive, and cast them off in preference of a more childlike irreverence for propriety. I believe the traditional Taoist philosopher filled such a niche, and reportedly delighted in tweaking the nose of their rigidly proper Confucian contemporaries (In a playfully benevolent manner, of course. It's been said that neither philosophy can be fully understood except in it's relation to the other)

What if the martians ARE rocks?!
Its last words were "Don't laze me bro."
Specifically, at 10 Downing Street.
Due to a rounding error, it was 11 Downing Street, hone of the Cheque Exer.
But it's only 2012!
No. It will be 2,684 years next Wednesday at noon.
I am a wererabbit!
Bugs is that you?
Your valve opened my garage door you insensitive clod
Did they steal your Maserati?
There was also Yggrasil Linux, started in 1992, but it is not alive any more.
Yggdrasil. Use the Norse Luke!
Of course they aren't connected to the internet. They're connected to each other by unencrypted radio links.
They do have checksums on the packets so that someone's garage door opener doesn't open a valve.
Actually, I say that in the later years of the Bush administration, bin Laden was seen as less trouble than Assange.
He still is.

radioactive decay is not as random as we thought. So where do we get random numbers that are good?
Well, on the bright side, it's not Apple. I don't know if I could handle a slippery shinny device with fingerprints all over.
Let me clarify, not fingerprints but buttprints. But you have a point, I hope its well protected from overflow attacks.
The BSOD keeps me regular, and DDoS doesn't help.
proof we need to take money away from idiots
They're working on it, but they are having trouble identifying idiots. They are taking it from everybody instead.
Warp .01 sound way cooler.
I believe that's impulse.
no they aren't.

Like being ground up for medicine?

No crying in the tardis.
And how are we measuring the size? What sizes are measured for typical 'big data'?
Are we talking about detailed information, or inefficient data formats?
Motions with hands.
"As we (very gradually) move away from feudal, leader-based forms of governance..." - You're kidding, right? What rock have you been living under?
'es been livin' down in th' muck in th' dungeon 'neath 'is master's castle.
Are you nearly finished cleaning my moat. It stinks down there.

Sort of Object Oriented theft?

...more Cult of Management techniques being inflicted on the world.
Managementology?
For me, the word "hacking" is a term used to denote taking something intended for one purpose and using it for another purpose.
Its the ultimate in recycling..
Sort of Object Oriented theft?
Did anyone else hear that "whooooosssshhhhhhhhhh"?
Do you mean like someone blowing on a microphone? I'll keep my ears pealed for it.

And suddenly the Hurd was enlightened.
Please get therapy, you clearly need it.
Spot on. One of the first signs of insanity is discrimination.
