Yes, you can. There are two ways to go about it:
Download the Android SDK which contains an Android emulator.
If you have any virtualization software installed, grab an Android x86 ISO image and run it in a VM.
The second method gets you higher performance (virtualization vs binary translation), but has major compatibility issues. Any app that contains ARM native code won't work in Android x86 unfortunately.
You're probably confusing trade secrets and patents with copyright. Unlike patents, copyright does not need to go through a government office. Unlike trade secrets, copyrighted worked does not need to remain secret.
Husband says it won't be long before internet-meme creations are included.
It doesn't take an insider source to figure that out. They included "d'oh" last year, and there's no reason to treat internet-memes differently than TV-memes.
Depending on your definition of "internet-meme" some already made it on there, for example lol.
2) they would tack on "hate crime", "bias intimidation", and all kinds of other crap. It'd go from a fine and a couple hundred hours of community service (at most) to a community-wide (if not nationwide) spectacle.
Not disagreeing with you, but I like to just point out that it wasn't the hate crime clause that turned this into nationwide spectacle, it's the very nature of the case itself. Mass media need a certain number of cases every day in order to fill the airwaves 24/7, and this just happened to be one of those precedence-setting cases that caught everyone's attention. Hate crime clauses or not this was bound to become a nationwide spectacle.
1)Stephen Harper, like all politicians, flip flop more than an IHOP. He may have been against universal heath care in the past but it's only his stance as the leader of the Conservative party that matters in the current discussion.
2) What does abortion have to do with same sex marriage? Why are we discussing future events? Since when does a private member's bill represent his party?
Comparing the Conservatives to Republicans is like comparing the tortoise to the hare. The Tories support universal heath care and same sex marriage, so that makes them even more left-leaning than the Democrats socially.
The best thing we could do would be to club together to fund a bounty for information on how to break AES without using brute-force computing
That's basically what academia has been trying to do before Rijndael even became AES. There are more than a dozen papers on AES attacks, the fastest of which is faster than brute-force by a factor of 4.
It basically comes down to whether academia has more brains or NSA has more brains.
My understanding is that the best known general cryptanalytic attacks on AES are only marginally better than brute-force.
That's true for today, yes, but what about 20 years from now?
As long as Moore's law continues any algorithm is suspected to brute-force. The NSA's job is basically to capture as much fresh ciphertext as possible and crack as much of the old ciphertext as possible. All the the DES encrypted stuff from a few years back probably reads like an open book to them right now.
Critics say city employees could have done the work far less expensively. Bills spiraled out of control over the years, hitting $692 million, and city investigators brought federal prosecutors into the probe after uncovering payments routed through shell companies.
...
SAIC agreed to pay $370.4 million in restitution to the city, as well as a penalty of $130 million, according to a deferred prosecution agreement made public on Wednesday. The city will get $96 million of the penalty, with the rest going to the federal government.
In addition, New York City will not have to pay about $40 million of the bills it was charged.
Let me see if I got this right:
-$692 million in bills +$40 million in canceled bills + $370.4 million in restitution + $(130-96) million in penalty payments = -$247.6 million
Shouldn't the restitution payment at least cover how much NYC originally paid?
They at least tow your car away, right? I mean if they let you drive away you would still be on the road illegally so they can just pull you over again as soon as you step back into your car. It just continues ad infinitum.

Before 1989, if you have © or "All rights reserved" on your work, it's automatically copyrighted. After 1989, any work you produce is automatically copyrighted, with or without the copyright notice. All of the java source code and API documentation contain some variation of "Copyright © 1993, 2011, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.".

Well obviously Google employees working in their moon office would have astrophysics degrees.
(As an aside: that page is the second hit for googling "google jobs" for some reason.)
Everything in the world is just applied physics, except for mathematics.

This is either a typo or python is way more powerful than I thought.

"gay" is homophobic.
"retarded" and "lame" are ableist.
The word you're looking for is asshole.

when a COS let an asset into their HQ and he blew half the station to kingdom come.
In case anyone else didn't get the reference.
Anyway AES is public key encryption.
AES is a symmetric-key algorithm.
My bad. I didn't realize the city actually received what they ordered. I mistakenly thought SAIC failed to delivered the software.
How come the votes were counted so wrong, with so small numbers?
26 is not a small number for politicians. They can't even count that high after taking off their shoes and socks.

You liar, everyone know it was a soundstage on mars.

o Get thrown in jail in Ireland for saying "goddamnit"
What does that have to do with UK?

Not true at all.
Wrong, it's actually just one machine.
