FYI, the term "sociopath" does NOT appear in the DSM. It is deprecated in favour of an overall descriptive encompassing a range of distinct disorders, in the general group "antisocial personality disorders".
yeah, I stopped reading at "sociopaths", it's not a valid term in any context. It was immediately deprecated following the failure of the Mary Bell defence in 1968.
This news breaks the same DAY leaks of Police Scotland are discovered to have been (and continue to be) performing an undisclosed number of "consensual" stop-searches on *children* under 12?
HINT: CHILDREN UNDER 12 CANNOT LAWFULLY GIVE CONSENT IN SCOTLAND.
This while the Hollie Grieg thing is STILL ongoing despite the fact that Robert Green has been persecuted by the Scottish police and judiciary for exposing the former Lord Advocate's involvement in the cover-up of her friends' involvement, more to the point her use of public money to pursue private civil litigations against anybody who goes after her on a public forum for continuing the cover-up? Come get me, bitch. I will take you the fuck down on any public forum.
the backups were apparently in police notebooks. Police notebooks are intended to be complete verbatim records of encounters with members of the public, but we all know that doesn't happen. We are talking about stop/search records here, and while City of London police did pilot body cams for a while (I submitted a story on this, it was rejected for strange unknown reason) in response to a public campaign for police to submit to constant public monitoring ("Leon's Law") hence complete oversight by the PUBLIC who they are meant to SERVE, it hasn't caught on enough to be mandated.
...mind, is:...why was a lowly data monkey allowed the sort of access required to "accidentally" delete official records??
It takes a special kind of negligent to permit such crass contempt for operational data. This should prompt a criminal prosecution of not only the operator but the idiot who accepted the specification as well. Hell, my personal wiki doesn't allow deletion (as is the default, it takes a deliberate effort to change this to allow even an administrator account to delete ANYTHING), because yes it does have whitelisted guest accounts, I don't trust anyone (not even myself) to not one day decide to be really fucking stupid and "accidentally" erase months if not years of accrued work. Dear Police Scotland, YOU NEED HOBBYISTS LIKE ME RATHER THAN THE TWATS YOU PAY TENS OF THOUSANDS IF NOT MILLIONS OF POUNDS TO, TO AT LEAST OFFER ASSURANCES THAT YOUR ORDINARY USERS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO *DELETE* RECORDS!
1. no. I bought it functional, boxed and with a second-user warranty and with the Vodafone firmware on it. The error developed a couple years after the statutory warranty expired. 2. like I said, I don't tend to say anything remotely controversial on the phone, so that's not an issue for me (also to answer the latter part of (1)).
I flashed the firmware with the sole intention of not having to go out and buy another handset because as I saw it, I had a problem that was potentially (and in fact turned out to be actually) solvable.
If your WIRED Admin system is plugged in to your LOCKED DOWN router how is someone OUTSIDE the LAN going to see it?? All they're going to see is an IP which accepts TCP packets. That could be a computer or it could be a data centre. Or it could be an NSA honeypot. Or a backbone connection via a rotary dial telephone in a small room a hundred feet below Kings Cross Station.
Can you tell if I'm directly connected to the Internet or through a router or through a tethered mobile phone through a proxy? On a wired or wireless connection? On a dektop, phablet or a piece of rock with hammer and chisel? Or did I dictate this message with a piece of string and two paper cups to my friend up the road who then typed it in on a Telnet session then uploaded it using semaphore?
...when the router comes out of the box it was shipped in, is power it up with the only network connection being a wired from port 1 to a pc, through which the router is locked to accept administrator connections from the currently conencted IP and machine ID ONLY (and the IP reserved for that machine), and ONLY via the wired LAN interface - from which point, you then change the wireless SSID and all the passwords FROM the defaults, and all that before you even physically connect it to the WAN cable. That way anything behind your router remains as practically secure as it's possible to get while connected to the Internet. Major problems such as that computer becoming permanently disabled are an easy fix, just perform a WAN-disconnected factory reset of the router and reconfigure it for another machine.
even further back. I have three Adaptec SCSI-to-USB adapters - actually physical pin-compatibility adapters. I've had those since probably 2005 or even before. They'll mount on pretty much anything I plug them into, from Windows ME through 7, OSX from Tiger/PPC (the one I've tried it on), and several flavours of Linux from around Knoppix 5.1.1 and I can still read every hard drive I still own from a 10MB 40-pin Winchester through the pile of 500GB Deskstars, several Seagate 9.1GB UW ans a good few 50-pin random and various capacity drives - not forgetting of course, the takep drives, slot loading and cassette DVD/R/RW/RAM drives and my pride and joy of MO gear that still works: a custom cased LS120/Zip100 triple threat (it reads 3.5" floppies, too!). All USB mass storage is really just SCSI layer on the USB stack.

That ridesharing thing that's getting sued ten ways from Sunday for butthurting established taxi firms?
Something's definitely up if they're getting valued at $40 billion! That's 4 times the UK's annual agricultural output!

wow. I'm really fucking butthurt that you'd do that.
Die in a fire, you sycophant.
and your qualifications are?
They tried to.
*Tried*. To.
that'll never happen.
there is already a marine gender imbalance caused by leaching of ridiculous amounts of oestrogens into the water table hence into the sea.

Forced vaccinations and fracking until our tapwater burns brown fire?
Ooh, yeah, gimme more o' that!

the Virgin Media Netgear routers don't. Neither did their old Terayon modems. They'll both allow admin connections from anywhere by default.
it's prepay. No line rental.

I'm just a poor researcher, I have to make do with what I have - my first priority is feeding myself.
yes but what are you going to do when you have no money and it costs a fucking fortune to file a claim in the employment tribunal?
google "Jamie Oliver food safety", I'm not doing all the fucking legwork because you're too fucking lazy.
shitme beers, ignore the typos, extremely tired at this point...
