It's not "from now on". The proposal has been published. It is not a law, and is unlikely to ever become one.
Do you hate us because we're free, timothy? Is that what it is?
Oh I don't know about that. My mother having lived under the STASI and been a part of the underground in her teenager years, I'm quite sure that they would have been rubbing their hands in glee over such a proposed law. This is a statists wet dream, and goes beyond a pure fantasy in terms of what would be considered an invasion of privacy.
Besides, the UK isn't free. And the veneer is wearing thin in many places. Otherwise, you wouldn't see Brits fleeing to places like Canada or Australia in such large numbers.
Oddly enough, if you like tinkering with things or pulling stuff apart. You're just as likely to have as much fun being a mechanic, as you are being a programmer. More so with modern cars, but even 14 years ago there was enough electronics in cars to make it an enjoyable experience in to the world of electronics and "why doesn't this damn thing work."
A lot of gun evidence gets thrown out of court now. Hell the rifling forensics database is garbage, it takes about 8 seconds to change the rifling of a gun.
Over here in Finland it is actually getting a lot warmer than it used to. For several years now the temperature can be above zero even in January, but when I was a child that would have been totally unheard of; back then the temperature could drop as low as -35 degrees Celsius where I lived in.
Over here in Canada, the temperature could drop like that too. It could also be much colder than that. And much warmer. In fact we had a much warmer winter than average, last winter we had a much colder winter than average. In fact 50 years ago, seeing 10m snowdrifts and 8m of snowfall in a 1 day period were very common where I live. Not so much now, but last year we had it too(Southern Ontario). People leaving from their second story windows? Yep that was common 60-70 years ago too, happened last year as well. Again not all that common, happened when I was a kid.
Then again, there's plenty of stories about the settlers landing in the americas that what *is* Washington DC and Virginia was so inhospitable that 80% of the settlers died in their first winter due to the cold. And that was only 200-350 years ago.
Taking government subsidies for domestic industries such as agriculture into consideration, what many people refer to now as 'free trade' in bi-lateral and regional trade agreements isn't even close to 'free trade,' as in trade unencumbered by restriction.
That's called fair trade, most people should have picked it up. But I'm glad you added it.
Would you like the acorn related ones, or the non-acorn related ones to start with? And would you like the Chicago related ones or the non-Chicago ones? Also Detroit as well as S.Carolina.
Technology doesn't promote world peace, that's a side effect. Free trade promotes world peace. It's that trade of goods, information and ideas that makes people respect and want to know someone else. Though societies that don't have anything to export are generally pretty good importers of said culture, throwing the "fear of god" into said places.
The real problem is getting new adoption for a new standard, especially when USB3 is just coming out of the gate. And for most people USB2/3 works just fine. Thunderbolt though, it won't have any place for another 5-6 years if that. And to be honest, I see devices in the near future shifting from Firewire to USB3 as well, USB is cheaper.
Of course using the BMI to determine anything is a flawed concept. The BMI in itself is not scientific, and is based on pseudoscience, working off ~130ish year old models for something that it didn't even work for properly in the first place.
Well don't worry. There's enough history of democrat front groups getting the dead out to vote. And let's not forget in Florida, that the DOJ is trying to push the state so they can't remove dead voters from the register either. And hey, let's not forget that Holder refused to go after the NBP for voter intimidation either.
Of course the easiest way to fix what I've just mentioned is to have voter ID. Remember, racist Canada requires ID to vote. So should the US.
Nope it's a fine idea. I've been at scene's where some idiot has been texting or talking while behind the wheel aka not paying attention and driven into the intersection, while not realizing that someone from the previous green still had control of the intersection and manages to get into a near fatal crash*. There isn't any difference. In both cases you're putting your life, and the life of someone else at risk by making a stupid choice. Both of which are 100% avoidable.
I'm perfectly fine with suspending and towing drivers cars for 3 days for either offence. We do it for drunks here now. We should do it for people who text, or talk on cell phones. You get your first half a dozen crashes where you can place someone on a cellphone and you'll agree.
*In Ontario, a driver who has entered an intersection to complete a turn has control of that intersection even if it's turned to red. All other traffic must wait for them to clear it, then they may proceed. This especially applies for left-hand turns. Other vehicles who cut across this vehicle are always at fault.
I strongly dislike SMS two factor, as smartphones are just as easy to get trojans/loggers on as PC's. Keyfobs work better, but then there's the possibility of the source+keystore being stolen. But at the end of the day both are more viable options than a simple password. Most people have cellphones, I don't but for anything important I already have a fob for it.
Sure. But giant washes of trees in the 'near recent past' aren't. And they have dug the remains of those along the east and west coast of the americas, europe, asia and africa from each continent. Seems that nature does a fine job of introducing species on it's own.
When you can create a new different plant and then have it on consumers plates in a handful of years their is far more risk than a crop strain which was developed over decades/centuries.
AHahahahahaha...
Yeah but people have no problem introducing invasive species like Japanese Lilacs. Ah the irony.
Well they do have a point though a small one. The real problem is though, is most police dept's in the US don't currently have 'on uniform' recording either. So you're only getting one side of the stop/arrest. In Canada about half of our services now use these when doing a stop/arrest. So the last thing I heard on the issue when you don't have one was: Cross you t's, dot your i's, and don't be a fucking retard and follow the rules and procedures when doing a stop.
Probably truer than anything else, since there's only 3-4 panel makers in the world these days. Then again about the time CRT was on the way out you were able to get 0.10 which was pretty nice. My old 22" Phillips 0.12 still looks crisper than my current Samsung E2220.
Bingo. You see the same thing with cars though, and shiny new computer stuff. This really isn't a surprise by any stretch, rather it's that people who have the stuff they want already have it. Just wait for the *next big thing* to come along and it'll change. Well providing that they have a job.
No they're waving enough money. HBO just believes that if they force people to buy their entire service that's okay and fine. The reality is, internet changed everything. They only want to buy, what they want to buy. Hell in Canada, most companies require you to buy blocks of other channels. Even then, HBO Canada is usually 8 months behind the curve.
The oatmeal covers this pretty well. When people complain and are waving money at you and you don't want to take it, you have no one to blame but yourself.
Too busy propping up dictators, and/or having them chair things like the human rights council, or the women's rights council, or the anti-racism council(I should really call that the anti-Jew council though).
I mean come on, we've got one of africa's greatest butchers chairing the tourism council, and Syria and Iran chair other "important" ones too. There's a reason why Canada is turning it's back on the UN and pulling out of groups and organizations.
Doesn't matter too much one way or the other. Even if the law passed, it would be declared unconstitutional in Canada. In Canadaland, the SCC is the final check on the government and they can and will void any laws they see fit. Sure the government can rewrite the law, but getting it into compliance is much harder than simply scraping the entire idea.
We don't have dumb justices in our supreme court. And half of them are conservative, before people go all flappy-eyed and insane.

And that's why voucher programs should exists. The state should never be able to tell someone what they can, or can't eat.
Bingo. The pharmacare market in the US is a fine example of crony capitalism in action as much as solyndra was.

Besides, the UK isn't free. And the veneer is wearing thin in many places. Otherwise, you wouldn't see Brits fleeing to places like Canada or Australia in such large numbers.
Oh I agree. It took me 8 years to finish my mechanics ticket, mostly because I got bored.
Oddly enough, if you like tinkering with things or pulling stuff apart. You're just as likely to have as much fun being a mechanic, as you are being a programmer. More so with modern cars, but even 14 years ago there was enough electronics in cars to make it an enjoyable experience in to the world of electronics and "why doesn't this damn thing work."

All to true. Any ISP? Hmm electrobox I think, they have their own dslams and plants.
No they're waving enough money. HBO just believes that if they force people to buy their entire service that's okay and fine. The reality is, internet changed everything.

Yeah no one wants to buy that.
