I agree. If they have a warrant or subpoena (I'm not sure which would be used), which have to be specific, then the defendant has to turn over what it specifies. The 5th doesn't allow defendants to hide evidence. If it did, investigating a business wouldn't be possible - they'd never have to turn anything over.
Repeating the same phrases twice to pad out a submission? I don't know about that, but I hear Samsung is on hand to produce the DRAM and NAND chips they require.
That's the exact opposite of my experience with the GUI. All frustration, no access to settings I need, and god forbid you run into a driver compatibility issue (I see a lot of wifi issues).
BMW's don't require proprietary gas pumps and you can buy 3rd party windshield wipers. It seems to me that Apple is too busy "thinking different" to think about interoperability. And god forbid you need to use Exchange features beyond sending and receiving, like access to shared resources.
Really? I hate the GUI (too much emphasis on style, not enough functionality) and find that their modifications to the BSD kernel make it just different enough to be a real pain to work with. It feels like they actively want to prevent me from doing anything that isn't exposed in the GUI, and there isn't a whole lot that is.
I did not have as pleasant an experience. Had an iPad with a graphics problem (would go all kinds of bad after running for a little while), and even though I was within the warranty period, they didn't want to replace it because there was a months-old dent in the corner (well before the display issue). I stood in the middle of the Apple store for about an hour going through employees until the store manager said, "replace it and get him out of here".
Had I not been an IT guy with retail experience, I would have had to buy a new one. But I knew what I was talking about, could shoot down all their arguments, and knew that if I was stubborn enough they would give me what I wanted just to get me out of there (because that's how retail works).
I don't care for Apple, but I have to give them a win when it comes to physical design. I remember cracking open a tower-chassis Mac back in '06 and being impressed as hell by the build. Cowlings over component groups, well thought out and guided airflow... It was a thing of beauty. I don't think they make them anymore though.
One of the reasons it works well in the enterprise is that it's easy to get something whitelisted - I get an email that says , "I need this, but it's blocked" and I unblock it (after checks).
Is an ISP going to be as responsive? Would Aussies be able to download SysInternals, or find that PSexec is blacklisted?
It's not that complicated. Apple sells an iPhone in France, France taxes the sale. Apple's European operations are based out of Ireland, so that's where the profit is and where it pays corporate income taxes. France can't tax the profits, because no profits were made in France.
Okay, that's interesting. I figured that haggling declined as markets grew in size and volume; had no idea about the Quaker influence. Their 'moral profit margin' idea didn't catch on quite as well though. Maybe that would have been different had the British not tried to lock down trade - which drove many Boston based merchants to turn to smuggling, and black markets have high margins on account of the risk. By the turn of the 19th century, "Yankee Traders" had quite the reputation, and it wasn't for their upstanding morals.
Do you actually think that at some point prices were based on maintaining a "moral" 10% profit margin? That was never the case. Prices are a product of market forces, an individual supplier's profit margin is the deciding factor for whether or not they stay in the market. So profits aren't a component of the market price, the market price determines profits.
Well, unless one of the revelations was that the CIA is using these tools domestically, I'm not worried. That was my big issue with the Snowden revelations - the NSA was breaking the rules by listening in on domestic communication. I want the CIA to spy on somepeople.
I remember hearing about how this was possible way back when they first started putting microphones and cameras on TV's. Is it a surprise the CIA was paying attention?
It was on an expansion cartridge for our TI-99/4A. I wrote a game in it, nothing terribly complicated or good. Didn't help that the joystick port was broken and only allowed movement left, up, or diagonally left and up.
The one's that CC my boss' boss on the first contact are the ones I hate. I guess they assume it will get them a faster response, but all it does is make me look bad. He assumes that if it gets up to him, then I've done something wrong

Are you sure? I could have sworn it was where hydrogen is turned into helium at a temperature of millions of degrees.

No no no. Samsung is on hand to provide the DRAM and NAND chips they require, because mobile is a different matter entirely.

What about false positives? Or tools like Metasploit?
Maybe I like an audience.

I'm offering the same deal, but plan to spend plenty of time inside playing single player games.
I can't see that as being anything but false advertising. +/- 5% would be one thing, but -6% can't be called gigabit.

Or it's just a faster and more fine grained approach to finding the market equilibrium price.

Which increased understanding between peoples and species, leading to more wars than anything else ever.
