This took place in the United Kingdom the applicable piece of legislation is the The Terrorism Act 2000 as amended by Counter-Terrorism Act 2008. This places a legal duty to report to the police as soon as practically possible any suspicions of any terrorist activity. Failure to report activity can be punished by a fine or imprisonment.
As I said children are hopeless at keeping secrets and will grass themselves and others up all the time without realizing they are doing it. So while in hindsight it would appear to have been a spelling mistake to the teacher in the class that "spelling mistake" and frankly as an appalling Dyslexic speller the idea that terraced can be misspelt as terrorist is a asking a lot, created a reasonable suspicion that had to be reported under the law.
Because at the time BSD/386 was still the subject of litigation so it was entirely possible that 386BSD might also disappear if the USL v. BSDi law suite had gone the way of USL.
Further while the case was settled in 1993, the terms of the settlement did not become public till 2004, so the potential for further litigation was seen to be a potential possibility as the terms of the settlement where not know.
This produced a window of opportunity for Linux to gain critical mass.
Except the right to free speech is an *AMENDMENT* to the constitution. Therefore one could argue that the advocation of any amendment to the constitution surely displayed blatant contempt for the constitution.
The thing is legally the teachers had to report it to the police. Failure to do so could lead to prison.
The other thing is that children are horrible at keeping secrets and will grass even themselves up all the time. Therefore it was appropriate to investigate and the fact that he was from a Muslim household in my view makes it extra worthwhile following up. Now that the Irish terrorist threat has all but gone in the UK, statistically that fact makes it more likely that it was not just a mistake and hence worth investigating.
Imagine his family had disappeared to Syria in a couple of months to join Daesh?
At best Otto Frank was Ann Frank's editor. As far as I am aware this is one of a very few cases where the editor is claiming copyright and is thus highly dubious and open to legal challenge.
The other editor claiming copyright I can think of is Christopher Tolkien.
A similar dubious copyright claim is that of Lyn Pratchett who attributed as having copyright interests in Terry later books, something again which is legally dubious as she was not responsible for the creation of the books.
Ok so I am British and I do have some "Made in USA" tools, a Metrinch socket set and spanners, but frankly I prefer quality German tools. You pay a bit more but you get reliable quality.
He was fired for using a work related account that should have been used exclusively for work related activities for personal communication. He was fired because the firm felt he should not be using a company account for private messages.
He tried to argue that the company should not have been looking at the contents of a work account, and the ECHR has ruled that argument is nonsense.
Oh and by the way the ECHR has *NOTHING WHATSOEVER* to do with the EU. I see Slashdot editors are as bad as the Daily Mail.
The case in question from which the ruling refers to, the employer used a "work" account for personal messages. Anyone who thinks they would have any right to privacy in that case is a moron.
See the following for a case summary in fairly easy to read English.
Basics are use my work account for personal correspondence and your employer is entitled to look at anything and everything in that work account. If you want your correspondence to be private then use a private account don't use a work account.
Until the advent of helium hard drives no hard drive had *EVER* been hermetically sealed. There is always a small hole which allows air to be exchanged with the surroundings so the pressure in the drive equalizes with the outside. There is a small filter to make sure any air entering the drive is kept clean.
I suggest you dismantle a hard drive and see for yourself.
Actually they do. Hospitals have separate circuits for critical life support and operating theatre equipment which has separate backup.
While it's not great if you x-ray machine looses power it is a whole deal better than the ventilator loosing power or a heart bypass machine in theatre loosing power.
Storing years of video data is trivially easy if you know what you are doing and not wildly costly. Most of this is never going to be looked at, so HSM with say 1PB of active disk and as large a library as you care should (100PB would be trivial) do the trick. Replicate over a couple of sites. Push everything over say six months old to tape, expire anything over 10 years old unless flagged in advance. One could easily do that for 20million USD, excluding the cost of the data centres. We are talking say 2 racks for the disk storage and servers and however much space you wish to donate to the tape libraries.
I am not sure what the physical foot print of a fully tricked out IBM TS3500 tape library is but their web page tells me that max capacity is 2.25 Exabytes, mix in some TSM and GPFS (or Spectrum Scale as they call it now) and jobs a good one.
Large scale storage is only a problem for those that don't know what they are doing.
You are assuming that use of force means opening fire with a gun. It could also mean firing a taser or use of pepper and/or CS spray, deployment of a baton, use of force in restraint etc. I say all this as a UK citizen where all of the above would be described as use of force.
Here is an example of none lethal force being deployed probably inappropriately leading to the death of someone in the U.K.
Don't know put Office 2012 on the Mac does single byte writes when you save a file. Causes a file save over SMB to take 15 minutes. Do a "save as" and the same file takes a few seconds. Of course saving to local disk and you don't notice the difference.
So if Microsoft with a team of paid full time programmers can make such stupid mistakes a why do you expect better of a little used piece of code (because for a large section of the Debian user base bandwidth long ago ceased to be an issue) that is maintained in peoples free time to be better?
The number one commercial use of a drone I can think of is inspection of inspection of roofs, guttering's etc. on a house. Rather than mess about with ladders etc. putting people at considerable risk of serious injury to inspect for a problem just fly a drone up and take some high definition video, show it to the property owner etc.
That seems to be something to my mind that you would very much want to do in a city.
Worked numerous times for me. Typically there is an open SSH port, and I just overload that. Does not need 1Gb/s and gets their attention pretty dam quick.
There is a bunch of other stuff you can buy duty free starting off with tobacco products that would be perfectly acceptable for Muslims to consume/use.
I would also put the the Disney and males a bit beyond five or six, probably eight at least. However a group of two Muslim men travelling with nine Muslim boys some of which are teenagers legitimately raises questions.
How often do you replace a radiator in your house? How often do you for that matter replace a radiator in your car? The life span of a single generation of IT equipment is say five years maximum, so even being conservative a rack should be good for at least 15 years or three generations.
Nothing requires water cooling, it is just a water cooled door on the back of the rack gives us a better PUE, we don't waste floor space on air handling units and we don't have to worry about getting all the air containment for hot/cold isles either.
Off the top of my head we are about 35kW per rack we the nodes are all spun up, though of course 100% utilization is super hard because we are always having nodes idling while to gather enough free for the next job to run. Nodes are about 85-90% busy.
Well the other plus side is that you get a better PUE so regardless of whether you have plenty of floor space you are better off with a water cooled door on the back of the rack. Especially as you will likely have several generations of equipment go through the rack.
Speaking from experience here running an HPC system with water cooled doors on the back of my racks for just shy of four years now. My personal view point is if you are not doing racks with water cooled doors then you need the sack unless you are using one of the in rack water cooling systems.
There is no pump in the rack/door. You hook up to the cool water supply that is coming from the chillers, and they provide the "pump". You are no worse off than before with air handling units in the room which also don't have pumps in them.
The doors we use have a number of large aka ~400mm diameter fans in the back that spin relatively slowly, and these are N+1 redundant. Besides that they are the sorts of fans than can spin for decades before going wrong.
The other advantage of having the cooling in the doors is that you save floor space in the room as you don't have to so many air handling units in the room.
The first point to note is you probably still need some air cooling in the room. Things like tape libraries don't come with water cooled doors for example. Though there is an argument that the tape libraries should go somewhere other than you data centre.
The second problem is suppliers that want to sell you something prepackaged in a rack that is not water cooled. Trying to explain to them that you don't want their shitty none water cooled rack is in my experience is like taking to a brick wall. Another reason why you probably still need air handling units. That said our doors are currently providing net cooling to the room, that is inlet temperature at the front of the rack is higher than the outlet temperature at the back.
The third problem is strip off to tee shirt and shorts if you open the rack door while the system is going full tilt, it can be sufficiently hot.
Now go crawl back under your rock and stop spouting nonsense about things you clearly know nothing about.
My brother in law want's a smaller phone than the 5.5" monster he currently has. Fend up with the size, as he looks enviously at my Z1 Compact, which is more iPhone4 size.
To behonest before my Z1 Compact I had an Xperia Ray and the upgrade was most forced by a woefully inadequate amount of onboard flash. I would love a modern phone of that size, just nobody makes them.
Thankfully Sony are still doing the Z? Compact models.
Why the fuck would a Sikh move to Qatar you racist moron? Perhaps they might move to the Punjab which would be entirely appropriate for a Sikh a member of a religion that has fucking nothing to do with Islam.
