"every state in the union has its own wiretap law on the books which bars this sort of covert surveillance."
It is not covert if the owner gives another company permission to do it. What you are trying to argue is that if someone broke in to a house with a house alarm it is a wiretapping violation for the house alarm to sound.
People wanted an MDI like Photoshop. Instead they get an SDI. It is almost as if the GIMP devs wanted to prove they could fail at even the simplest UI design choices.
This is...so incredible. The application of modified white cells and using HIV as a carrier has use beyond just cancer. It is too bad the drug companies and big cancer foundations didn't back this from the start. Hopefully the money will come pouring in now.
Politics aside, this information should have been public to begin with due to its scientific use in many areas (even outside climate study). This is similar to certain companies trying to copyright the human genome and make payment gates for access to the information. I understand that study and operation of research requires money but the CRUs have been well funded to date.
I personally have no use for this information, but I don't think it should be held from those who might.
According to the article China's pollution is saving us from global warming. Without it the earth would warm, the caps would suddenly melt, and Al Gore would get on TV and say "I told you so".
With the EU you now have one country with various states. Each state has its own government that is slowly giving its sovereignty over to the collective government. The transition isn't complete yet though. I would give it another decade before people start really noticing what has happened to them.
Is this actually news worthy? A better question is: which one allows programmers to perform better? I'm not just talking lines of code, but rather how much time is spent developing in general. I guess that would be hard to measure but it would make for a far better research paper.
Scalability: yes. Cheap: yes. Reliability: they don't say they are 100% fail safe. I think the figure is still in the 90's though which is pretty good.
Google has some pretty smart people, and I'm sure they've got something up their sleeves.
Not this time. ChromeOS was targeted at netbooks while they were the "next big thing" and Android was set to go for phones. ChromeOS never made it out the door and Android has expanded to tablets (the current "big thing"). ChromeOS is walking dead which will eventually get chopped.

You see this as some great attack on your national pride and just have to take revenge?
So pointing out bad journalism has something to do with national pride? No wonder Brits live in a nanny state. Probably too scared to question what they are told.
The article is from the U.K., so what do you expect? Brits have to find something to feel superior about despite having bad teeth and breath, even if they have to "look over" things like the U.S. grounding plug and GFI sockets.
The Hero is nice and all but, like other Android phones, it doesn't have the processing power. The Acer A1 looks like it will be coming with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 1GHz processor and Android 1.6. Now if it would just be carried by someone other than T-Mobile in the states I would be happy.
A huge divergence from most games which appear to be developed by color-blind people with the brightness on their monitor maxed out. All the industry appears to churn out is a constant stream of darkly lit, gray and brown games. Take the challenge and try something new for a change!
No mention of the U.K., Germany, or Australia which are also implementing blocking technologies? Very western of us to ignore the other supposed free countries.
"6-10 ARM-based netbooks running Linux and costing just around $200 should arrive this year starting in July."
That means you can buy 6-10 netbooks for only $200!!! That works out to a cost range of $20 to $34 per netbook. Wow. I wonder if you can get them in smaller quantities than 6, since I only need like 4?
Falls through the cracks or is created after the fact as if to appear that they "could have done something if only they had more funding". I hate to be critical, but our intelligence agencies seem less focused on foreign terrorists than they are about citizens who may disagree with the government.
>I'm not clear on whether people who object to the existence of Israel are doing so on the basis of the particular spot that was chosen
Neither. It is how it was formed. Jews have been in that region for some time. Right along with quite a few other religions mind you. European Jews, persecuted and with no place to go, were secretly funneled to the area in large numbers. Feeling empowered with lots of people and influx of "sorry" money they formed a Jewish government. This new government divided the people in the region (prior known as Palestine by most of the world) by their religion and called the place "Israel". This is loosely based off the Israel mentioned in the bible minus the fact that, unlike the bible fantasy, it doesn't reach to the border between Iran and Iraq. So this new government pushed the other half (now called the Palestinians), made up mostly of Christians and muslims, back as to acquire good space for the new settlers. Many people were forced in to refugee camps in neighboring countries. This action pissed off Israel's neighbors, and most of the people in the region, especially due to the obvious singling out of muslims. Lots of fighting. Lots of hate. Any other questions?

"Europe" is not a single country you know.
With the EU you now have one country with various states. Each state has its own government that is slowly giving its sovereignty over to the collective government. The transition isn't complete yet though. I would give it another decade before people start really noticing what has happened to them.
Hmmm, would you like people snooping on your private life, and then making money publishing it.
Sure. But I don't think people will pay for it.
Or in at least one of the gagging orders, it is alleged blackmail took place.
If someone releases material publicly doesn't that mean they lost their ransom? And, last I checked, the U.K. already has laws for blackmail.
Yes, but how can we blame humans for that? It is far more damning to say "nature is perfectly balanced but humans fuck it all up".
with him as a non-violent offender who gets house arrest (and has to pay for his own monitoring). The DA & prosecutor aren't stupid
That will teach him. When he gets out he will have to go physically harm someone. The DA & prosecutor are so clever!

Europe put a lot of money in to the LHC. I don't think it was meant to find anything except certain pockets to fill with cash.
Scalability: yes.

If anyone tries to sell you 100% they are liars.

Read section 8.3:
"Google reserves the right (but shall have no obligation) to pre-screen, review, flag, filter, modify, refuse or remove any or all Content from any Service."
I don't know why anyone would try to stop it. It is not like it will do anything besides collide high powered lasers.
Eventually they will crank it to full power and.....nothing will happen. I'm sure they could always use it to burn DVD's or something.

God forbid someone in the U.S. is seen having a gun.
