Cisco opened a priority 1 case with Microsoft yesterday as soon as we found out about this issue. We are continuing to escalate this issue with Microsoft for a resolution timeframe. We recommend that all customers open their own cases with Microsoft since the ultimate fix will need to come from them. You can feel free to reference Cisco's case # which is 115021112390273 in order to expedite having your ticket properly triaged by their support team.
Yes, in a perfect world only those who believe others should suffer as long as possible would be the ones who die slow painful deaths, but the world is not perfect, so it unfortunately happens to decent folks as well. We do treat animals better and that is a sad commentary on society.
Even more sad is the old laws forced some people to cut their lives short earlier - killing themselves when they are still physically able because they fear the day they won't be capable of doing it themselves.
Certainly tight controls need to be in place, but most important - and this was important even before this ruling - make sure your family and friends knows your wishes. Many people already have "living wills", I would suggest everyone should make sure their wishes are known before hand. It may not make for the happiest dinner conversation, but it is a conversation well worth having sooner rather than later.
Here is a template from our local health authority. You will find many others on the internet.
LOL Not nearly as bad as the user interface on my BMW. Ever tried typing an address with a scroll wheel? And the voice recognition is no better.
It is illegal to use a handheld device in our cars around here, so I either use the much more distracting iDrive or risk the fine with the much easier to use phone. Does not make anyone safer, though.
Don't worry, in Trudeau's Canada he'll be bringing back the liberal style by knocking the teeth out of protesters personally and laughing at the use of pepper spray on them.
You're a fool if you think it's Harper that's the problem. The problem is Government.
I don't disagree. I'm not partisan and don't really like any of them.
Accordingly, I fully subscribe the politicians are like diapers theory.
I have a rooted phone running 4.3. I use Chrome for browsing, but realize other apps may use webview and be vulnerable. In fact they make it easy for developers to do so.
I'm wondering if I can simply disable it by deleting/renaming a library or something similar, or will that make the entire OS unstable? I don't care if it breaks apps - those would only the vulnerable ones anyway. Absent that, it looks like it is possible to remove access to individual apps through their manifest files.
I'm not a developer, but maybe a script that will search out all manifest files (as root of course) and neuter any vulnerable apps by altering them would be useful. Once you know which ones are broken you can set about safely fixing them.
If you use an offshore email provider, the NSA will just grab whatever it wants, whenever it wants, without even the tiniest fig leaf of law to cover up strategic bits.
And likely none of it would ever be admissible in an American court of law........
Your last four 2-term presidents - Reagan, Clinton, G W, and now Obama - have faced both both houses controlled by the other party in the last 2 years of their term.
Seems your presidents just wear out their welcomes before their full 2 terms are over.
The only way to get usable fuel out of tar sands crude is to take it to places where wages are low, labor safety and pollution control is non existent. They can't refine it in Canada.
Plenty of Canadian oil is refined and used in North America. The rest of our domestic oil supply comes on tankers from overseas. I guess they can't refine it where they are either.
Actually makes no difference to me, so long as my tank is full. Just seems sensible to do it all in the most efficient way.
I see, so your view is that if a theory can't explain everything, it cannot explain anything.
Not at all. Consistent and accurate predictive ability would go a long way to convincing me they have a grasp of how it all works. Instead they search for their missing heat.
And no points for just predicting "warming" - it is an interglacial after all, that's a given, and it's been warming for the entire instrumental record (since ~1850), so it's pretty much a no-brainer.
So basically the models are awful, and they can't predict SFA better than a loaded coin toss.
That is not science. Did you think everyone would just take their word for it?

WTF would Canadians care about 17 U.S.C. 512(c)?
If they can't afford Canadian legal staff to even write their letters they will likely not have much success in Canadian courts anytime soon either.
Isn't global warming [from greenhouse gases] an exponential system? When the planet gets warmer, doesn't that release more greenhouse gases from clathrates under the ocean, causing more warming?

On the plus side Harper's government has lost more SCC rulings than any other one that I can remember.

But of course as I said that would break them.

Any thoughts?

This is all true, but I'm quite thankful that the courts have been doing a pretty good job protecting us from the government.
I think Harper has lost more Supreme Court and Federal Court cases than any government I can remember. Hope it keeps up that way.
Freenet was the first thing that came to my mind when I read the headline.
This isn't a new idea.

Build the damned refineries in the tar sands.
And then use pipelines to move the refined product to markets? Sure you have thought this through?

If your doctor knows as much about physiology as climate scientists know about the mechanisms governing climate, the latter is a given.
Likely sooner rather than later.
When overall life expectancies and standards of living worldwide start to decline rather than rise, I'll re-evaluate your position.
I don't see that happening any time soon, "big oil" notwithstanding.

No, or warming would have "runaway" eons ago.
We do have a "code of ethics". We work to improve people's lives.
more than climate change ever will.
I'm still mourning the loss of Trapster.

Then yes. And I would expect they have been keeping that info all along.
ISPs now MUST share subscriber name and address and info with the complaintant.
Actually, no. They need to ask an actual judge for a warrant first.

Granted it's not an SCC ruling, but given the SCC just said even the police need a warrant, I'd say it's pretty solid.

If I use the free WiFi at Starbucks, do they need to keep my personal info in case I'm later accused of infringing copyright?
Do they ask you for ID?
I'd mod up but already posted.
Michael Geist's analysis is right on as usual.
I would not subscribe to an ISP that only gave me a NAT and not a registered IP.
