You stop thumb drives entering or leaving the premises. If the data needs such efforts, then there should also be no 'server that can be accessed from home'.
Access/Elevation should be audited to trap illegal copy operations.
Last resort, but impractical unless at the highest levels - destroy the usb ports or physically lock them.
Which is why Richard the Third wanted one so badly at the end. If he'd had one at Bosworth then Henry would've been dust.
Instead the fools tried to bring him a slightly panicky pony.
Unconfirmed, but I'd expect a group policy setting or perhaps defaulting to off when on a domain/non 'home' version. Extended search (along with pretty much anything else in the OS) has always been manageable by GPO so I can't see this being any different
Menwith Hill is not a 'major GCHQ installation', it is RAF owned land and leased to the US where it is operated by the NSA and houses a USAF Intelligence Squadron.
If you had said "furthermore it's also well known that a Major NSA installation, Menwith Hill, actually has GCHQ officers" then the rest of your argument may have had weight, but you're supporting it with an incorrect statement from the outset.
There's a little bit more to it, but basically for this DIY project he's bought a gimbal that's meant to provide steady images on a model helicopter and mounted it to himself?
Not quite "DIY steadycam from Helicopter parts"
In fact, and I realise this is nothing new, the title is completely wrong.
for general websites, none. But in the case of the BBC the clock had been used for years as part of the station ident between programmes and could easily be justified as reflecting the corporate brand. see http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/7271036.stm for more info.
where did you get your info? As I understand it, it took 14 minutes for the first armed police to arrive on scene from the first emergency call, which was about a RTA/assault. It was ten minutes from when the operators were notified that the perpetrators were armed to when those armed officers arrived. Now, ten minutes is all the time needed in a crime like this, but we don't have armed police on every block over here (not in Woolwich - central London and specific areas have roaming units). Now, it may sound hollow but that was actually a 'good' response.
And I'm not sure how quickly police could arrive to a 'murder in progress' anyway, in order to stop it - if any victim is alive when they arrive, it's more likely a hostage situation (which may end up as a murder). Drummer Rigby (RIP) was dead before any response could have been made, unfortunately.
Pretty much all your examples (apart from uniform) ARE taxable.
If someone is given a company car then they are taxed on the additional useage (i.e. personal) that is not for the business.
If a company REQUIRES you to wear a uniform and they provide it, then you're not taxed; if you have to buy it then you can claim back the tax - a uniform is a valid business expense. However if the 'uniform' is simply a standardised set of regular clothes then this doesn't apply (e.g a suit isn't a 'uniform')
If you make personal printouts on a company computer, then you're stealing - but if they turn a blind eye to this and it's minimal then it would be under a threshold for being a 'benefit in kind'
If you are provided a company mobile then, just like the car, you should pay tax on any calls that aren't company business - if your company doesn't claim back the cost of the calls form you.
Any of the taxable examples are when you receive a 'benefit in kind' i.e. you are receiving something that you would normally pay for (gourmet food, transportation, clothes, and phone calls).
On a general note, and note a direct response to the parent poster, it strikes me how amazing it is that the generally intelligent Slashdot poster can't get their head round the concept. Comments like "How is the professor paying for the google employee's lunch? douchebag" show an inability to grasp what should be a fairly simple concept....
example 1. An employee receives a regular wage, the company and employee pay the relevant income taxes. The employee goes out and buys his food for the week (if he brings it into work) or buys lunch every day. He/She then also pays whatever the relevant sales tax is.
example 2. An employee receives slightly less than a regular wage. the company and employee pay less income taxes. *this* is where his comment comes into play - in theory, because of this there is less money being collected by the tax authorities so the rate for everyone rises to compensate. (As a general rule if everyone paid all the taxes they should, the rate should go down without getting into arguments about the fact that governments would conveniently ignore this)
Some commenters were saying that google *has* to provide these meals to keep the talent, and this just reinforces the point that the food is, in effect, income - and should be taxed as such.
I don't know where YOU live in the UK, but most motorways are so clogged up that maintaining 100mph+ is pretty much impossible - it's almost easier to do that on A roads. As for easily seeing people hit 130mph, well that's feasible but rarely due to the aforementioned traffic - perhaps the M6 toll is the only realistic area where you can do that regularly. And as for the police not stopping you for that, I call bullsh*t - there is no-one in the UK who will tell you that they could drive past a copper at 100mph and not get pulled.
Can confirm this works. Can also confirm that elderly mothers pick up windows 8 quickly (seemingly more quickly than most slashdotters - think it's because she didn't feel the need to complain!)
Give soluto (https://www.soluto.com) a whirl, it helps you keep ahead of problems such as all those toolbars and addons that get installed. You can keep track of things and arrange to install and upgrade certain programs remotely.
I'm often called in to provide assistance for family and colleagues kids' machines, and getting soluto on those machines has reduced the time getting called to fix the basics.
They have recently added in remote assistance too, but I haven't had a chance to try it (normally use teamviewer)
I don't know where you're located, but you may find an online store in your region such as this
interesting to note, they sold out within days of people finding out about the tainted products in the article
also, try the water buffalo.
why does it need anything else? use a quality meat with the right amount of fat and it will all form together and the proteins will do the binding. Of course, some sort of seasoning can be put in there as well, but a good beef burger can (should?) be made with nothing but meat. egg and/or breadcrumbs are not necessary and usually end up with a dry burger if you're not careful.

let me guess, it just says "wipe here"?

Again, what is point of doing that on the bbc web site?

It came as news to me, seems quite healthy.

Also, didn't MS's Origami Project turn out to be a dumb tablet hooked up to a PC running the OS? Or was that one of their other projects back then?
Who's this Liam Maxwell? Sounds like a commie.
