Amusing, but on seeing this news article I can't help but wonder if Slashdot celebrated every 5 year anniversary with such enthusiasm. 95 isn't really a special marker, and this story is a bit of a non-event.
The Gonzales case is exactly about the archives of a local newspaper being referenced by a search engine - it relates to a newspaper reference to a property auction due to Gonzales having financial difficulties in the past. It is basically saying that such archives are no longer searchable or indexable online.
What this can mean is that if you're about to enter politics, you can clean up your record before there is a public interest defence and then enter politics with a shiny clean record.
...it does the job it is supposed to do almost perfectly. It is a device for reading books. If people want all the other stuff, they buy a tablet. Extra features are unlikely to kill a Kindle. The only thing that is likely to do so is when a tablet offers the same features (i.e. long battery life, display you can read in bright sunlight).
No but let us say that said newspaper is electronic in form and those archives are electronically searchable, they're screwed by this made up right. People want past misdeeds to be forgotten about and removed from search engines and if it starts with Google, it will move on to the search engine of the website of your local paper. Where will this mythical right end?
No court ruling has applied this right to the newspaper, but it has certainly been applied to Google which in turn was referencing a website which could be a local paper, a publication of record etc.
One PC per family would satisfy most families around
Unless multiple kids need to type up homework. Or would most families have multiple tablets each with a Bluetooth keyboard?
Well DUH, if one kid gets a tablet, they'll all want one. Besides that, schools STILL have to deal with families that have NO computer. Very few families need multiple computers.
Currently up to
3 tablets, 3 laptops (1 work, 2 family), 4 PCs and need another laptop.
Tablets unfortunately don't supplant laptops and PCs - they're devices for consuming rather than producing.
Neither was Iran's request a covert black ops operation. I'm not claiming countries are running black ops operations to get the accused, I'm stating that all countries are trying to claim the coverage of their national law extends into other countries. Prior to the Mega operation, where a country was based and principly did business was regarded as almost inviolate. Also it was not regarded as "has a nexus", it was "headquartered or controlled from".
The news agency was probably jumping to a conclusion, not the judge. Like reporting over here, the press agency put their own spin on it.
Zuckerberg personally claims to be an atheist, which presumably is not really compatible with being a Zionist. In addition, it seems that he's not too popular in Israel or with US Jews either....
The USA has on a number of occasions extended its own laws to cover interactions with foreigners over the Internet. You only have to look at a certain naturalised New Zealander who the US have tried to extradite (Mega something or other, wasn't it)
The European Union isn't perfect either, as this "Right to Be Forgotten" law also seems to want to establish national law when the dealings are with foriegn companies that essentially only have sub-offices over here. In actual fact, the Iranian allegations of "Invasion of privacy" are fairly similar to the European Union position, which is one reason why I hope that the silly ruling is buried in some manner.
They assumed only 4 hours of sunlight and a poor efficiency factor. Their prototype testing was in Idaho, not california. The panels are designed to withstand loading of 250,000pounds.
They were fairly pessimistic in their design assumptions, so it ought to be given a chance.
I am rapidly coming to the conclusion that he may be bad, but the alternatives are far worse. In most countries it seems the Arab Spring has had little beneficial effect in terms of Freeeeedom!
It may be surprisingly readable, but Justice Alsups original ruling was extremely clear cut, no nonsense and demonstrated a clear understanding of technical issues and accepting Oracles arguments. Accepting it also would have also limited or prevented a lot of litigation in the future.
He may be right about literacy rates etc. His comments are probably embellished for entertainment, and it really worked in that sense, but I suspect that it's not totally divorced from the truth.

Then the blind men drew their swords and shot each other in the back, right?
It explains how Han managed to shoot first.

So yes, the Iranian judge's "let's kill the kike" is at least factually accurate.
I think that was the news agency, not the judge.

If Amazon employs bodies in a physical location then of course it has to follow employment law in that location.
The Right to be Forgotten idea is silly as no local paper will be permitted to have archives any more.

Oops should read rejecting Oracles arguments.

Highlander is an excellent movie. Where else could we have a Scots actor playing a Spaniard and a French actor playing a Scotsman?
... a bit of a Tardy-is joke.
Isn't this old news?
That would make this an Old Joke :-)
The question is whether you could tell the sound output in a blind test, not whether you approved of the construction quality.
...work at a very high pitch!
...not to include a couple of clunkers in the test; the sort of violins the average student may possess at high school.
