That is why the vast majority of money besides directly levied taxes does not come from criminal fines for murder/rape/molestation but DUIs/Speeding/Parking. In fact, some counties now depend on that money to operate because they have factored the money raised by these fines in their budgets and can even borrow against the future returns using crimes that have not been committed as collateral, and you thought government was here to protect you.
Yeah, they can. With the advent of cheap shutter glasses and high refresh monitors 120hz+ kids today are experiencing 3D in a whole new way again. The difference being it is not a single game that is pioneering the genre but the whole FPS genre itself.
Why would it be different elsewhere? The nice thing about Hawaii is that a substantial portion of people never leave the island and our easy to find for long periods of time. The only thing they don't have going for them is the lack of a robust middle class, the Gini index is pretty whack there.
Disparity in Sentencing for Actual Crimes

CP laws are pretty messed up with the mandatory sentencing in some states being greater than for the actual rape of an adult. Last month here we had two cases come up with police being involved in crimes, one was for CP, and he got 8 years, and one was for rape, and he got 5. I think something is definitely amiss.
As well as retail. My ex-gf works in fashion down in LA and to pay the lease she needs to sell at leas a single high-end designer dress every few days. Last year she in the garment district she saw someone selling a fake Dolce Vita skirt for 20 bucks, this skirt retails for over 400. How can she compete with that? Should she start buying the fakes to stay in business, because that is what it comes down to.
Try running a VPN tunnel to the outside at Intel. It won't happen and the security dudes will be there within moments. I have no idea where the vast majority of you work but such shenanigans would not fly at Intel.
It is not like a prison cell, it is like being locked into Disneyland with no chance of ever having sex again. So in some ways it can be better than prison, no chance of institutional homosexuality.
My old room mate called in a domestic violence incident at his apartment complex a few months ago and it was a young cop and his fiancée. After a few hours they came pounding on his door asking him questions and he told them to come back later because he had to work in the morning. A few days passed and he went down to his car and found his antenna bent off and it was keyed, so he called the cops again and said he thought it was the wife beating cop, who was still living in the apartments. His insurance paid for the repairs but he wanted to get the hell out of there, so he setup a webcam from his balcony overlooking the parking lot while he looked for a new place. A week or so later he got 4 still images of the cop walking over to his car and kicking it, throwing up his hands and than kicking it some more. He turned over the images to the cops and he said the first thing they asked was if there was audio, because if there was he was going to be charged with a wiretapping crime, they were so serious they were grinning, he said. There wasn't any audio, long story short but there is a major aversion to even recording wife beating cops off duty cops running amok that is how this law is used to cover up crimes performed even off duty.
So again, can you take a video of your son's soccer game or are you looking at 50,000 years in jail because of the 300 people who did not give consent? What happens if you take a video of a concert, do you go to jail for 4 billions years?
Corporate laptops, not their property, and why so mad? You do realize that this was far less invasive than what happens nowadays? Now there are turn key solutions that allow them to look into every email you send not only through the corporate email server but any unencrypted web-based email service as well to see if you are talking to competitors, headhunters etc.
Security guards can be replaced in less than 24 hours with a phone call, it took them 3 months to find my replacement when I left and I was just a neophyte sysadmin in my early 20's at the time with less than 3 years under my belt.
The only time we needed the security guards there was when one of the EE techs went batshit insane in one of the labs and started punching his supervisor and they were worthless. Since the lab was on the 4th floor and there was only 2 elevators on that side of the building the guard ran up 5 flights of stairs from the basement, burst into the room, pepper sprayed everyone and than almost had a heart attack and had to be treated by EMTs at the scene along with everyone who had been pepper sprayed. An old ex-marine sales manager in his 60's wrestled the dude to the ground.
That is what you get when academic institutions encourage intellectual relativism under the guise of pluralism. Students are encouraged not to be too polemical and professors are encouraged to publish papers in other fields for synergy. Science is not a fucking democracy.
Well, the shell script the head IT guy insisted we use would only scan the C: D:\ and A: looking for violations of our company's policies for copyright infringement etc, so a lot of people in the company partitioned their disks and named the partitions like X: or something to get around us bitching to them about Mp3s or running unsupported programs. This was not the first guy who handed us a laptop with ( if I remember ) 20 gig hard drive with a few gigs unallocated which we recovered files off of, mostly mp3s and Napster installations. He, however, was the first we turned over to the FBI.
I got paid back than to enforce the company's IT policies, we were getting our technical sales and engineers poaches back than, we were under strict orders to take all infringements seriously and report them and no one owned any of the machines I performed analysis on. I was doing my fucking job and I'm glad I caught him, even if busting the half a dozen tech support guys who got canned for trivial crap like mp3s sorta of sucked, it was my job, and I did what the company needed to reduce its liabilities.
IT are the police in a corporation, respect them. The fat security guards checking badges are a joke, the people that protect the place from hacking, espionage and legal liability are the boys in the server room.
He deleted the partition without first wiping the free space. All the files were there all you had to do was create a new partition and use a file recovery tool. Deleting a partition does not automatically scrub the drive clean of any files all it does is remove the entry in the MBR.
After reading the article, I'm left in a lurch on whether I should be concerned or not. On the one hand, there are some personality types who work in those 3-letter agencies being associated ostensibly with some pretty shady business but without more information on the positions these people had, we will be left making fallacious assumptions. From the 2 instances I have had to turn in people for child porn on their computers to the FBI, I noticed that both seemed normal and likable enough most of the time, but gave off a secretive vibe when they brought their laptops down for repairs, or we had to do a manual upgrade.
One got caught when he forgot to bypass the VPN login when he was away on a business trip. I got paged at 3 am after a long night partying at a rave and it kept going off till I got up 20 minutes later and I was still receiving pages when I arrived on site along with the CIO of the company. The FBI arrested him when he flew back into Phoenix the next morning.
The other one was less dramatic, we were getting ready to partition all of our laptops to dual boot W98 and 2000 because we could not get some legacy software for our inventory system to work in 2000. When we wrested it physically from his hands after him telling us as HR he did not need to check inventory we discovered 5 Gigs of unallocated space that shouldn't be there because we used Norton Ghost, suspicious we made a FAT partition in the space non-destructively and proceeded to recover 10's of thousands of images of child porn.
Even Jewish people make jokes about the Holocaust/Shoah because if you can't laugh about something, how can you be serious about it? I heard this joke from a rabbi on Seder, " How many Jews can you fit in a car, 10,000, in the ash tray. "

Rap always reminds me of beatniks and bongos on PCP or Crack. Maybe I listen to the wrong kind of rap.

Try it at Intel, you will be walked out of the door in 30 minutes. What kind of IT department would expose the company to liabilities like that ?
She looks like some prude who just went through a divorce and is realizing that a handjob a month is not going to land her a mate anymore.
Who uses real information online anyways?

20% of 10 billion is something to sneeze at, especially when you have no brick and mortar presence to pay for. There is no where for it to go but up.

You and 1 in 3 Indians, which this device hopes to help with.
It was always funny to me that during the Savings and Loan crisis, the people who were responsible got less time for their crimes than a mugger.
