Had his violations been "harmless", it might not have been prosecuted. However, people have died as a result of his parole violations. Tell us again how this shouldn't be prosecuted?
You do realize "The Ring" is fiction, right? In real life, videos can't kill.
Or for that matter, just asking the CS department if you can skip the class because you already know the basics? If you find a prof and can convince him or her that you already know this, you can probably skip the class.
One of the examples in the article is San Francisco's Muni, a proof-of-payment system that has fargates only at major stations. So if you run into a fare inspector who asks to see your card you're pretty much fucked.
Not to say that Apple doesn't have a large customer base now - but it won't always. Is it really that worthwhile to introduce special handling for people with a special type of device?
You mean for the security theater that didn't exist a decade years ago in a type of travel terminal that didn't exist a century ago? Stop kidding yourself: nothing lasts forever.
The question is, is it worse than no BPA? The reasons cans are lined with plastic are to prevent botulism and to keep the contents from eating through the cans.
Or, you know, we could be lining our canned food items with something that's safe.
Where does The Daily Show get their news archives? Sometimes they pull up clips that are fairly old, so it's hard to believe they have a bunch of Tivos running in a back room.
Seems to me you could have a lens that's always focused to match your eye. All you have to do is bounce light off the wearer's eye to measure the eye focus, then correct for it automatically.
Not saying it would be easy, but it's certainly doable.
From 1898 through to 1910, diacetylmorphine was marketed under the trademark name Heroin as a non-addictive morphine substitute and cough suppressant. Bayer marketed the drug as a cure for morphine addiction before it was discovered that it rapidly metabolizes into morphine.
With money being tight and paranoia about malware and viruses at an all-time high, the time is right to accept free discs from total strangers and install them on your computer.
Hey if money's tight, I hear one an make money building a botnet by getting strangers to install trojans on their machines...
I was under the impression that Apple's dock connectors were designed such that they could be plugged into various accessories (speaker docks, etc.) without the need for a lot of processing power to play music and such.
Wouldn't using USB make this a major challenge for the companies building the accessories? After all, USB requires some heavy lifting on the host side.
There's no expectation of privacy on a twitter message nor should there be. Further, this is evidence of a crime. No, it's not a serious crime (murder etc), but if the claim made by the prosecution is shown to be valid then it is a crime. The tweets will probably do that. If they exonerated him he would present them himself I'd wager, so in all likelihood they do not.
Okay, then why couldn't the police just get a warrant?
Also, as others have said there's more to this than public data. Not every piece of data that Twitter collects is made public.
This will only allow the truth to come out. I see no downside.
Ah yes, the old "if you have nothing to hide, you don't need privacy" defense. I guess that's a popular idea, which explains why we don't have due process in cases like this anymore.
This isn't like the way Yahoo responded to the Chinese government -- Twitter didn't hand over the documents immediately. They tried to defend their case and ultimately lost.
If you want to chastize American companies for selling out their users to the authorities, you've picked the wrong target.
They could still use Android all they wanted if they did this, Google just wasn't going to go out of their way to help them. Don't they have the right to pick and choose who they work with?
The key difference being that Microsoft never pretended their OS was "free" and/or "open" as Google has done.

Romneybot isn't programmed for the emotion known as "humor."
Unity (the Ubuntu shell, not the game engine) is based on Gtk, not Qt.
There was a Qt version, but it's no longer developed.
...you can't just go around killing people without making a few enemies.
Or for that matter, just asking the CS department if you can skip the class because you already know the basics? If you find a prof and can convince him or her that you already know this, you can probably skip the class.
Right, because health care was so affordable for the middle class before. That's why almost everyone was insured.
Faster? Heh. You've obviously never tried Unity lenses.
The balance isn't what matters here, it's whether there's a valid ticket loaded onto the card.
Now, you could probably find a way to write that info to the card, but if you could do that, you wouldn't need this phone hack in the first place!
One of the examples in the article is San Francisco's Muni, a proof-of-payment system that has fargates only at major stations. So if you run into a fare inspector who asks to see your card you're pretty much fucked.
And did you learn to code because you wanted to, or because your company required it?
Is there a better company, though? Seems like all the major antivirus vendors have had embarassing false positives like this in the past.

And of course, heroin itself was introduced as a "non-addictive" alternative to morphine.
From Wikipedia:
Funny how history repeats itself.
Not sure where you're shopping, but you either only looked at the top of the line model or they're ripping you off.
Try more like $200.
Geez, some folks have short memories. There already were plenty of commercial games for Linux.

...at least we'll have a mammoth tooth!
