And so does the European court. Imagine the following: The European High Court serves a warrant to the U.S. Supreme Court for contempt, and put out a search warrant for the justices. They should never travel abroad then.
Of course it is. "Atlas shrugged" is fiction as well. But whoever uses "Ark B" as an insult should read the chapter again. Golgafrincham is the counter fiction to Ayn Rand's fiction.
Both groups destined for Ark A and Ark C failed. Yes the Ark B people are constantly infighting, setting wrong priorities, seem to be clueless at best. Interestingly though, while the Ark A and the Ark C population died out, Ark B not only survived, but managed to settle on a foreign planet, conquer it and create a new civilisation.
From an evolutionary point of view, the Ark B people were the fittest.
If I remember correctly, the 80186 was the first attempt to bring the 8086 to full 16 bit, both registerwise and also in the pinout. Because you needed all new motherboards and chipsets to use the 80186, it was not a big success in the PC area. Thus Intel designed the 8088, which was an 80186, but with 8086-pinout, basicly an 80186SX.
But while in the PC, the 80186 never caught on, it was the CPU for many embedded systems, running printers and dishwashers, and is still available today.
The Fiskal-LKW is completely independent on size. We even habe subcompacts licensed as trucks. As far as I know, the storage space has to be physically separated from the driver's compartement (e.g. by installing a partition panel between the trunk and the driver's seat). And another requirement is a plate on the outside (close to the right front door) with the car's axle and loading specification.
In Austria, we even have "fiscal trucks" (Fiskal-LKWs). Those are cars, that are used commercially, and are taxed as trucks, but from a traffic law point of view are cars, can be operated with a car driver's license, and have the same speed and parking limits as passenger cars.
No, they are not vans, as their loading compartement and the drivers seat are physically separated and located in different bodies. For a van, the SteetScooter would have to be an unibody construction.
Depends on the local definition for a truck. In most E.U. countries, vehicles lighter than 3.5 tons are not considered trucks. Most light trucks sold in the U.S. would be called cars in the E.U..
Depends on what you are testing. Fuzzing should target the layer you are interested in. If you want to test the application layer, then you have to make sure that at least the IP part of your fuzzed packets is correct, so your packets actually reach the application.
If on the other hand you are testing the ethernet driver, you could try to send random bits instead of ethernet frames to the interface.
Tell that to Wolfgang Pauli, who thrived when being with other people (and interestingly was in school the same class with another Nobel laureate, Richard Kuhn), liked to go to pubs and was for some time married to a dancer.
Capitalism does reward different parts of human nature at different levels. At most it rewards having resources, and it doesn't care how you got those resources.
And if the technicians don't disconnect the servers, they are charged with obstruction of justice in Europe.
And if police forces come into the data center in Ireland and then serve the warrant to disconnect the servers, can the technicians (and thus Microsoft) claim duress? They can even obtain a paper from the european police men that they tried to fulfill the court order but were hindered by the european police forces. How does the U.S. court enforce its warrant now?
And what should happen in your opinion if the warrant is granted in the U.S., but an E.U. court knowing about the announced breach of European law serves another warrant that forces Microsoft's european technicians to disconnect all servers storing the data in questions from the network? How does the U.S. court then enforce its warrant?
No. The claim is that just because a person is technically able to do something it does not mean that the person is legally able to do it. Most people are technically able to kill someone, but not many are legally entitled to do so.
Yes, a person in the U.S. can copy personal data from a computer located in the E.U. to a computer located in the U.S.. But doing so without the consent of the person the data belongs to is illegal in the E.U.. The European High Court has decided that even U.S. legal enforcement is not allowed to do so without serving a warrant to the responsible european court first. If a court in the U.S. decides otherwise it would be in contempt of the EHC. I wonder what happens if the EHC then serves a warrant against an U.S. court for doing so.
Coming up with conclusions, and then trying to find data to fit your conclusion is NOT science and does NOT follow the scientific method.
To the contrary, that's exactly how the Scientific Method works. I have a proto-theory, and then I draw some conclusions from it. Then I invent an experiment to check the conclusions (e.g. I try to falsify them). If the conclusions hold, I have a very promising proto-theory. I draw some more conclusions from the theory and invent more experiments. If they still hold, I call it a theory.
The experiments themselves could be performed in a controlled environment, which makes interpretation of the measurement data easy. Sometimes, it's not possible or easy to control the environment, then I have to collect and interpret the data much more carefully. Sometimes, I can't even create an environment for my experiment at all, I just have to collect the data from whatever natural events happen. In the case of the gravitational waves (which were just conclusions from Albert Einstein's theory of General Relativity), at first, we just had some data that could be interpreted as being results from gravitational waves (the two neutron stars PSR 1913+16 circling each other closer and closer and thus losing energy), and then we invented an apparatus to actually measure gravitational waves coming through (the LIGO), getting much better data, which fits the theory.
You have probably heard about the hunt for dark matter, a mysterious substance thought to permeate the universe, the effects of which we can see through its gravitational pull. But our models of the universe also say there should be about twice as much ordinary matter out there, compared with what we have observed so far.
So this discovery does not change anything we postulate about Dark Matter.

But our models of the universe also say there should be about twice as much ordinary matter out there, compared with what we have observed so far.
So yes, the article (and also the summary quoted) made it very clear that this discovery had nothing to do with Dark Matter and doesn't change any calculations regarding Dark Matter.
In theory, this issue is solved with making the actual seller (the one accepting your payment) responsible for the product. In practice, the money processing company might just file for bankruptcy when the first customer complaints come in, leaving the buyer without anyone to blame.
If we assume magic as real (as FORTRAN77 would do), then we can conclude whatever we want (and the contrary of everything we just concluded). Your argument basicly boils down to the claim that some allknowing being with abilities at hand that go well beyond our understanding is running the world.
This is of zero value, as it doesn't yield any researchable statements.
In this case, this was a question of computability, which doesn't require any assumptions about the universe. Peano's axioms are valid in all universes, and thus Arithmetics is the same everywhere. And Computability theory is just a sub-topic of Arithmetics.
I calculated for fun, how much additional electricity a country like Germany would need to generate to power electric cars. It's miniscule compared to the current electricity production. Lets say that cars drive about 10,000 miles per year, and that they get 5 miles per kWh (or that on 20 kWh, they can ride 100 miles). That means a single car will need 2000 kWh per year, and one million cars will use 2 TWh per year. Sounds much? Germany generates about 600 TWh electric energy per year. And it net-exports 50 TWh each year. Just the surplus energy will be sufficient to power 25 millions electric cars, more than half the current fleet.
That's more easy in German, where we have two words 'Obst' and 'Frucht'. While 'Frucht' actually means the seedbearing thing, 'Obst' means the stuff you can put in a fruit salad ('Obstsalat'). But be careful, in Germany, some nuts are considered 'Obst' (e.g. hazelnuts and walnuts).

Hydrogen cars don't have that nice energy recuperation feature of electric cars. Hydrogen-hybrids on the other hand...

But there is the StreetScooter GmbH, which has already manufactured about 3000 of their light delivery trucks.

What the two teams detected now was matter which differs in at least two aspects from Dark Matter:
You have probably heard about the hunt for dark matter, a mysterious substance thought to permeate the universe, the effects of which we can see through its gravitational pull. But our models of the universe also say there should be about twice as much ordinary matter out there, compared with what we have observed so far.
