They might be using the information, but that doesn't mean the court system won't find it to be illegal.
Basically the best end result of this would be if MS, Google, et al. get hit with huge fines. Then pressure to stop or limit the programs would come from someone with real power over the US government.
"The second, a Falcon Heavy launch, will put up several satellites and a 5 metric ton ballast, in an effort to demonstrate the Falcon 9 Heavy for the Air Force."
Why don't they just say "we're going to launch a 5 ton spy satellite and several decoys", it's not like anyone who follows this doesn't know.
Cause the top guy in the EU subsidiary, and every single person in the chain down to the guy who gave access to the US, would not mind spending time in jail? Either the top guy knows, or someone else is getting screwed, so someone is going to cover their ass and tell.
And they're all, more than likely, living in the Europe so the prospect of being wanted in the US versus being in jail in the EU should be an easy choice.
The EU Data Protection Directive is very specific on this issue; the hosting/cloud company can only locate the data in the US, or even transmit it there, if there is an explicit guarantee that the data has the same level of protection.
Basically yes, the US could use the Patriot Act to obtain protected EU data from US-based companies. And yes, the company would then have broken the EU directive and would face the courts.
You are assuming the heliostat is static... It isn't, and it changes a lot depending on magnetic fields.
If you look at the graphs (that are out there), there was 2-3 temporary drops in the magnetic field and increase in low-energy charged particles. Now it is truly beyond that boundary.
Except the real point of the story is that since B mesons were not symmetrical for C and P, then finding out that it was symmetrical for T would mean that quantum theory isn't symmetrical.
Basically the particle needs to be non-symmetrical for all three of CPT, or none (which we know it isn't), else there is as you say 'something extra on top of the basic quantum theory'.
'Everyone' knows about the efficiency theoretically, but they actually made it work at such high frequencies and they superseded the expected practical limits by a large margin.
Estimates by people who do estimates of this sort for a living, based on prior earnings and pre-raid customer-base. Basically it's the kind of thing they do all the time in the world of business and people can earn or lose rather much money on bad estimates so they take that kind of thing seriously, unlike you.
Well, the issue is that by all accounts he was operating within the law, so who's the gullible ones here?
Unlike Youtube where copyright infringement was rampant and encouraged by the leaders, MegaUpload always has seemed to follow the DMCA faithfully. Until google gets a helicopter raid you can stick that gullible thing up your ignorant ass.
The value of MegaUpload has been estimated to up to a billion dollars, not two hundred million. You need to take into account future earning potential.
Funny thing is that NZ 'forgot' to demand indemnification from the US in case the raid was illegal or the charges bullshit, meaning that NZ might very well be on the hook from (almost guaranteed) compensation for the raid itself for at least quite a few million dollars and possibly, but not entirely certain, for the billion dollars estimated to have been the value of MegaUpload.
How about a guy that got raided by Delta-force with assault rifles and helicopters, a billion dollar business destroyed with no due process, and illegal spying that is pretty close to getting a prime minister redhanded in illegalities?
What has gone down would be enough to produce a pretty damn good movie and you're questioning if he's been through enough to qualify for some support? Are you perhaps a sore dick mad at the world cause someone else has done cool stuff and you never got out of your mom's basement.
As said, coding style on that level is something everyone who writes code professionally can adapt to.
When learning at university I was very focused on writing the cleanest, best coding style possible and that kind of focus has paid off. You end up rewriting code many times but at the end you just get it, your code feels right and people tell you your code is good.
If you haven't spent every day of writing code back in university trying to figure out how to write clean code then you're more than likely one of the people I curse daily today.
Except it is the code quality that is the issue, or rather the inability of people to use OpenStack without heavily modifying things and spending lots of time getting the setup right.
Linus would have rejected all patches until things worked again.

You mean, not for at least a couple hundred years?

In planes they avoid the whole issue by using anti-gravity fields.
Hi, my name is Shavano and I know not what I speak of.
Sorry, but the Espionage Act of 1917 is not a Swedish law.
If they got blue tongues then they're using something that is industry-made, and safe.

What do you mean 'how about you don't drink'... Is this the prohibition again?
There's always a night for drinking.

You mean Google has been involved in Somalia?

You still can't think it seems.
"The resonance excites the atoms and causes them to shake off electrons at a rate that otherwise would require higher energies."
Sometimes the difference between something significant and something already done lies in the details that stupid people are too quick to gloss over.
And any day a bunch of unicorns could land behind me while I'm out walking, buttrape me and then fly off. It could happen.

Nothing actually works... Out of the box.
That's the issue, there's no one there to say "fuck that patch, I won't include it until things work again".

Favorit trick at my high-school was we installed a tool, don't remember the name, that allowed us to remotely control computers.
Lot's of people found themselves surfing hotbears and such sites.
