Well if the flying servers (servlets?) carry a flag then it could possibly be criminal. Just find a country with a strong position on destruction of property to fly under.
The truth is probably still somewhere in the middle there. It's entirely possible that in one skirmish 10 Taliban soldiers could be killed, 2 American soldiers wounded and 20 unarmed women and children killed as well.
Cable is limited because the providers hoodwinked municipalities into giving them limited monopolies under the assumption that running multiple sets of lines would cause problems for the consumers including increased costs passed on as high prices. This is a lie, of course, but that's what we have at the point.
That's a great idea until someone goes down the street shattering all the plates with a solid boot. Removing a large number of plates or spray-painting them is a little tougher to do quickly, quietly and with plausible deniability.
5L cans? 10. So, once a day would befit how often I drive and it's about a quarter mile to the nearest gas station. So I get some exercise every day as a result? Win-win!
Wait, you'll accept that a cop will intentionally signal to his dog to signal that the car contains contraband but won't accept that the cop will then plant contraband in the car after that point?
I mean, it is possible that's Clever Hans in action instead, but even if you're getting an unintentional leakage of information the search should be held as unreasonable and any attached evidence dismissed.
Gee, an officer replied to a DV call of a man beating his wife, comes in and sees a woman with a black eye and a dude that smells of whiskey* -- do we really need a jury to decide that one?
Yes, we do. What if the woman stumbled drunkenly into a door frame and threw her whiskey bottle at the husband? Innocent until proven guilty.
Or grand theft auto where the perp is caught in the stolen car.
That's the entirety of the case? I'm sorry but we need proof that he wasn't given permission to use the car and that it wasn't an honest mistake like an old car whose locks are so worn any key from the same make and model will work in it. (Yes, that happens.) Again, innocent until proven guilty.
Yeah, I'm sure that most people picked up on actual criminal charges are guilty, but if your raw chance of innocence is 0.1% then for every 50 people picked up there's only a 50-50 shot they're all guilty. I think it is far better that a thousand guilty people be given full trials than for one innocent person to be bankrupted by one.
Except that there are the problems of: 1. What if they legitimately don't have the information. 2. They don't just get let go when they do provide information.
For example, at Gitmo the common sleep-deprivation method of blasting music throughout the night has been used. You can't just say, "Hey, guard I'll tell you guys anything you want if you just let me sleep." They're not given the option.
I'm not defending these less-lethal suppression methods either, but I have to understand why others would and I want to make sure others understand the argument for their use.
I believe the argument is that rioters have the option of just walking away and those being arrested have the option of just complying. (Ignoring, of course, when cops taser people unnecessarily.)
That's actually a very complex question with a variety of answers. Some people are homeless because they refuse to work within a system. Some are homeless because they're addicted to drugs and alcohol to such an extent that they have ruined their lives. Some because they have mental illness that prevents them from functioning clearly in the modern world. Some because they fell on hard times and had no safety net. For the last one, yeah, they'll be reasonable and try to work within the structure to maintain a roof over their head. The other three, not so much. And if you treat them like they just need a job and a home and 2.5 kids and a dog then you won't get the results you seek.
Sounds like the LED is effectively re-directing the thermal radiation then, which is kind of cool. (No pun intended.) Could you daisy-chain this so the light output of one super-powers the next to draw heat away from a source? You'd be siphoning off as much heat energy from the system as the electric energy you're putting in in that case.
Blame the extortionate tariff on importing components versus the lack of tariff on finished goods for production being outsourced. Here's a direct petition on the matter: http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/27158 -- that is the direct reason manufacture is being outsourced. From what I understand of the Foundation's statements on the matter no economy of scale could overcome the cost of the tariff because the bill of materials cost would be too high to be profitable at the desired price point as a result.
And I don't see any cost increase. Model As are $25 before tax and shipping. Model Bs are $35 before tax and shipping. That has never changed.
If it's a checkbox requirement, that won't help. "Don't have an account." "Right. Refused to log into Facebook. And now Google+, please."
I'm not usually one for regulation, but this seems like an easy one. Employers must not require employees, contractors or applicants to interact with the company through any social networking service with their personal accounts. Employers must not require employees, contractors or applicants to utilize any social networking service with their personal accounts. Employers may require employees to interact with the company and use a company-provided account on a social networking service as part of their regular job. This could easily fit into a fair employment act.
(I look forward to holes being poked in my prospective law.)
Exactly. The US is not free because no one tries to curtail our freedoms. The US is free because when people try to curtail our freedoms we have strong recourse. Now, in recent times our recourse has been more and more restrained, but there are two boxes left that we haven't been using very much: jury and ammo. The US needs a larger, more concerted push at jury notification.

Or Tennessee.

James May, I believe.

Whoosh!
So if I don't have health insurance I won't be able to get gasoline? That makes no sense.
That's a great idea until someone goes down the street shattering all the plates with a solid boot. Removing a large number of plates or spray-painting them is a little tougher to do quickly, quietly and with plausible deniability.

One Anon at each gas station with a pair of wire cutters, I imagine, is all you need then.

No, that's the kind of thing an idiot would have on his luggage!

Also, it's easy to go from Arduino to production of an AVR device. If you build an RPi machine you're always stuck running it on a full Linux machine.
Wow. I have no idea how I wrote "notification" instead of "nullification." I love that /. lacks an edit button.

But of course the long answer is "Yes, but not enough to matter."
Exactly. Obviously the RIAA wouldn't be distributing their copyrighted works through torrents, so it can't be their fault.
