How Tony Blair has the hubris to appear in public after the Chilcot inquiry (finally) concluded everything about the Iraq war was bollocks is beyond me. The man helped completely fuck over an entire country and still believes he did the right thing.
GP isn't in a (potential) position to inflict his narrow-minded and discriminatory views upon a populace via legislation, that's what.
Leadsom looks like Thatcher 2.0 in most pictures and wants to return to the pat on head don't you worry yourself about that, just do as you're told authoritarian bullshit that punks so despised in the 70s. Normally that would be a guaranteed vote killer as those same punks now have families and mortgages and actually vote, but the opposition is as effective as the England football team
There's been rumblings in Parliament for years about porn filtering. They gave the "option" for the big ISPs to "voluntarily" implement one with the threat of mandating one by legislation if they didn't. So, yeah, it is the Government, but the ISPs will get the complaints.
Except TFS mentions codes as well as numbers. That sounds like the CVV2 on the back which is not meant to be stored anywhere but the issuing bank for Cardholder Not Present transactions. Why did Wendy's have that information?
There could have been 10,000,000 arrests, the number is immaterial. What matters is how many of the arrests ended with a conviction that shows the advantages of this surveillance without oversight. And if those convictions had no influence from parallel construction just so a prosecutor could make a name for themselves.
Given the amount of "there is danger of imminent attack" proclamations 100 arrests seems an insignificantly small number.
The Ferengi still have a Grand Negus. The Federation doesn't interfere with internal politics (which is also part of the Prime Directive) so while there are rules to follow if you are a member, you can still be an unscrupulous business oriented society so long as you don't take the view that your ideology is superior to others. This is why the Romulans and Cardassians aren't members and the Klingons only "recently".
The article didn't discuss what it was supposedly about (reduction by a tenth versus reduction to a tenth).
Someone commented: "As the OED editors point out repeatedly, a dictionary records how a word is used in contemporary practice, not how it 'should' be used."
In which case, dictionaries (especially Merriam fucking Webster) should not be taken as arbiters of language as they currently are ("OED says this, so nyah") but rather a record of how uneducated clods screw up a language.
Language changes, true, but to have to invent a word that means "a word that has two simultaneous and opposite meanings" (not "doublethink" but similar) to cope with arrogant cretins who won't accept what they say is bollocks is, well, bollocks.
In most cases, human drivers will have already decided long before which decision they would make at their leisure. This could include variants, so someone who would choose to kill one than die might choose to die instead of killing 10. If / when the choice presents itself they immediately exercise it.
For a power user, maybe. For a standard user, not really. Plus "most" isn't good enough. Besides a validity check on the installation plus Windows Updates, I see no reason why Microsoft needs to know anything about my machine.
If I'm to drive a car, one that doesn't have a manually operated handbrake is not one I'm going anywhere near. If there needs to be a fucking instruction manual that tells you how to keep the damn thing from wandering off of its own accord then you can forget that as well. Similarly, if there is a manual handbrake but it can't hold against an incline, then gtfo, as that is even worse.
His resignation doesn't happen until October. He's not going to invoke Article 50 as his last major act. Much better that someone else commit political suicide when he's gone and coining it in on the lecture circuit like Blair.
Those very same people voted overwhelmingly to remain in EEC in 1975 referendum after UK joined in 1973. Now they want out because they don't think it is still a good idea.
True, no *one* is snooping, because there's too much data for humans to sift through. However, it isn't true that no *thing* is snooping as something automated is doing that sifting, and only involves a human should some undisclosed trigger occur. I would bet a lot of those are then categorised as false positives by humans reviewing with that being fed back into the system.
In the beginning dick pics would have triggered all the time. Now they are ignored (unless subject or recipient are listed as under age I suppose).
I don't know about anybody else, but if a doctor couldn't tell roughly how tall I was (everybody's answer to the question will be a rounding off) just by looking at me then due to the lack of basic spatial relationships I'm not about to entrust my health to them.
For option 2 they tell your boss anyway due to some legally required disclosure regulations they just made up, you get canned for being an addict and won't be able to get another job with that on your recordsso, how can you afford any legal costs for your defamation, because fuck you.

Maybe he just watched Sneakers and thought it was a documentary...
A dry roasting there...

They are doing it because the government has repeatedly said that if they don't do it voluntarily, a law will be passed to make it mandatory.

Location of court checks out. Should be a slam dunk for Huawei even if the claim is bollocks. Have they retained the judge's son to make sure?
That was a golden opportunity for them to have used "or" in place of "nor" to prove their point. Since they didn't, they're talking out of their arse.

"The prosecution are unable to declare how the evidence was gathered due to reasons of national security"
Judge: "oh, that's all right then. Objection denied"

Stronger glue should be used.

I consider 174 mass shootings *this year* more than "a bit" more violent then the UK which hasn't had any. But maybe that's just me.

Blame the BBC for that one
There's more than five types of irony. The irony is most don't understand even the most commonly used type.
