Maybe NHTSA thought that people would read their owner's manual? And/or learn how to use said vehicle before using it (a lesson you could have learned yourself).
"So, how many miles had xyz driven on that Jeep?" "22,112." "Don't you think that would be a enough time to figure out how the [bleeping] thing worked?"
If people had accidents on their way home from the dealership, that'd be one thing. People out of their first week...no, no sympathy.
Since it's coming from Lenovo they aren't making any money by installing it, so I really don't understand the motivation for putting useless bullshit on their computers.
It's probably got a Chinese government back door installed with it.
If I were to take a guess, AMC is taking "precisely" to mean the same thing as"accurately", and so if the statement simply accurately (however generally) describes a plot detail (that is, to use your example, the character Joe Blow died) then it meets that definition of "precisely".
" Court ruled that publishing a work that 'recount[s] for its readers precisely the plot details' of a fictional work constitutes copyright infringement.""
Saying "Joe Blow died." does not reach the "precisely" level.
They didn't call it iBreathe or add any Zs or whatever marketing does to trendify names nowadays. A more important question, did he trademark the name? If so, he has a valid legal case against Apple.
I'm pretty sure you can't trademark common verbs, hence the i's and the z's.
OMG, they spelled "Breathe" the same way that it's done in the dictionary. The horror! What are the odds? So that app was in the App store on June 5th? I daresay that Apple's PowerPoint presentation has been completed for longer than that.
Sorry, dude, but your 30 seconds of fame is slipping out of your grasp.
Let's see, it's a US Capitol Hill newspaper, and the article shows US airmen and a US transport in the photo. So, obviously, it's about the Kenyan Air Force.
FTFA: The Obama administration disagrees, and argues that since the records have already been submitted to a third party (Oregon’s PDMP) that patients no longer enjoy an expectation of privacy.
How do *I* lose my rights if a second party turns over info to a third party?
Now I see why the Obama administration has had such a hardon for electronic medical records.
Dude... Obama... stop. The tin foil hat brigade is giving me that knowing nod of "see? We fucking told you", and I have no reasonable retort. The Constitution was supposed to be your wheelhouse.
"As if this isn't abusive enough, the candidates are not allowed to see nor challenge their report"
The data protection act, 1988, says they are.
You can naively write whatever you feel like into a ToS. But it won't hold us to the first even cursory legal challenge.
The ToS can say, "You grant the landlord the right to enter your apartment and invoke droit de signeur whenever you are passed out drunk." It doesn't make it true or remotely enforceable.
Breach of the Data Protection Act. Even employers cannot ask you to do this, and not providing service if the user refuses to allow it will see you in court too.
Honestly, that's a business with a life expectancy of precisely one lawsuit threat.
No, this isn't going on in Britain. No, it's nothing to do with Big Brother.
It's a company being stupid and knowingly doing illegal stuff that, when the Data Controller finds out, he'll nail them to the wall for. It has absolutely no basis is reality, even if some people were stupid enough to give them access.
Sure, the data controller will do that--if they were providing their services in Britain. Since this is a US journalist (implicitly) talking about its use in the US, nothing says that they're running afoul of British law.

There, fixed it for you.

Never attribute to happenstance which can be attributed to a cover up.

As a Obama supporter (twice), can I just say:

Gee, thanks.
