if George had signed a release saying Jiffy Park could use his car as a brothel while it was parked there then this might be closer to the FB/Instagram situation.
When did anyone ever sign anything to upload to Instagram?
A better approximation would be a sign posted at the entrance saying "by entering this carpark you agree to the terms of service written inside this book under this sign", and the user has to park their car on the street near the entrance to the carpark, go over to the sign, open up the T&Cs book and read 32 pages of 9pt terms and conditions, the first 25 pages of which are fairly innocuous stuff. And while they are reading the T&Cs, their session times out, they get towed and end up having to retrieve their car from the towing yard and drive over to the carpark again. Not reading the T&Cs would have been a much better option for them.
It's quite challenging these days, mainly due to the various anti-spam measures that are deployed around the internet which you need to understand and configure your server appropriately to avoid being blocked. Also, you need to keep up with security updates (this goes for any server open to the internet) as script kiddies will be hitting you dozens of times per day.
An alternative is just to aggregate your mail from other servers using fetchmail + dovecot, and take control of storage and backup yourself.
Which is exactly the situation in which a self-signed certificate is appropriate. But it doesn't really matter in this case, since your reason for setting up your own mail is to take control of your own data, not hand it over to Google.
1. Polish and Lithuanians come in and take all the jobs that the British didn't want anyway.
2. Daily Mail readers sit around on their arse all day complaining about all the immigrants stealing British jobs.
3. Government promises to do something about it.
4. EU won't let them do anything about EU nationals, so Government has to find another scapegoat.
5. Government over the last couple of decades has been letting every man and his dog set up a University. Some of these are well dodgy, existing only to assist visa scams.
6. Government clamps down on all student visa holders, especially ones with brown skin attending reputable Universities like Nottingham.
7. BNP is happy that their policies are being carried out, despite never having won a seat in British parliament.
there are three standards for emergencies: 911, 112, and 000
...and 111, 999, 110, 119... the only one of these that is a standard is 112, which is codified in the ETSI standards for GSM and its successors. The rest are national assignments, made with no reference to any standard.
I'm pretty sure the recorded message on 999 and 911 came well after everyone had switched to push button telephones (some time in the 1990s IIRC). The reason for a recorded message was that the general public might not expect 999 and 911 to go through to emergency services, so might be more likely to dial it while playing around, not really intending to place the call.
Companies banding together for anti-competitive purposes is usually called a cartel, not a consortium, and is illegal. For some reason patents are different.
This isn't just about deductions and credits though. Its about moving your money to subsidiaries in countries where no actual business is taking place and cooking the books in such a way that you practically avoid paying any tax at all on billions of dollars in profit.
I misread that at first. But it didn't surprise me in the least that a system for corporate tax avoidance through globalization should be named after Exxon-Mobil (or any other global oil company).
it's not a matter of bombing the party HQ, and driving into Pyong Jang, the invaders would not be accepted, and the people would gladly give their lives.
This is basically what was expected in Japan after WW2 based on what was happening in the final weeks of the war. In reality, it was one of the most peaceful occupations the world has ever seen. I don't think you can predict that easily how an oppressed and starving population will react to occupation.
You used to be able to put "London, UK to New York, USA" into Google maps, and it would tell you where to jump in the water, and which direction and how far to swim. Sadly, they seem to have lost their sense of humour lately.
It is tied to parental control. In the hours when the parents are least likely to be controlling what their 13 year old is doing in the privacy of their own bedroom, that's when the 18+ games will be available.
This must be a recent thing. I worked for a factory back in the early 1990's that had a mixture of US and German made machinery. We needed to carry both metric and imperial tools and spares.
On another occasion a taxi driver (I don't have a license to drive a car, never bothered to get one) was stopped and had to pay a fine. On that case I was quite sure it was a fine, even though the taxi driver made it sound like corruption.
If he paid on the spot, it was corruption. Getting a fine means you get a ticket which you pay at a police station sometime later or go to court over. If you give money directly to the cop who stopped you, then its going into his pocket. Usually by giving a bribe directly to the cop, you are either getting a discount on what the real fine would have been, or avoiding some other consequence, like losing your license to operate a taxi. So its win win for you and the cop, but the state loses out, both financially and in the general population's respect for authority.
At the start, his story about harassment by corrupt third world government officials was quite plausible. But now, seeing his tales of decoys with false North Korean passports, I'm more inclined to believe that he really killed his neighbor.
s/Samsung/Ericsson/g - this is a bait and switch tactic by Ericsson; license FRAND patents for a low cost at first, then try to increase the rates later. Samsung should be commended for standing up to them, even if no other manufacturers have.
IANAL, but since these are patents that Samsung used to license, and that license agreement has lapsed, it might not need a court ruling to prove that the products do infringe upon these patents.
The door open button normally works (to a point - it may be ignored if the door is almost closed, or if you hold it too long), it's the door close buttons that are normally a placebo, or in best case they sometimes override the slow door close after the door was held open, to get the door to close at normal speed.

So make it a class action lawsuit, so there is no specific individual "publisher" for Facebook to push the liability to.
Part of the problem is that dealing with mental illness has come to mean jailing the mentally ill in the US.

"Siberia Post Office" (actually; shiberia in katakana, yubinkyoku in kanji) seems to be his alias on 2ch.net.
Which brings up the "Emergency Dialer" screen - a phone keypad.

Evil is about morality, not legality. So yes, it can be evil when taken to the sort of extreme that Google and others have.

How else would you expect to join in our game of involuntary chatroulette?
