...iTunes has not arranged itself a prominent position in the results... which can't be completely Google's fault.
Apple must have forgot to tick the "Place my website prominently in Google's search results" check box on Google's mega-corp-website-settings.html page.
It's more likely a CYA thing. No one wants to be responsible for trying to hack your iPhone and bricking it, so if they offload it to Apple, they can't be blamed.
They will probably come for you before they come for me. I'm just reassuring the powers that be that I am an honest and would not ever be involved in anything that might be considered wrongdoing. You, on the other hand, are making waves, and that can get in the way of progress and the happiness and security of everybody.
There is no reason the av companies couldn't cooperate. The Dutch Police could sign their virus and that signature could be checked and then ignored in the anti-virus program. This refusal by the anti-virus corporations flies in the face of the wishes of the law makers, (ie. the police), and they should know that they would have never got to where they were without the permission of the authorities. They are biting the hand that feeds them and there may be consequences for not going along with what their told to do.
I don't see how the D&D notes would work, unless you had a keyboard to edit them as well. And if you have a full keyboard, and google glass, why not just use a pen and paper instead?
And you can get a head mounted camera for 40 bucks.
Doesn't that violate the "no free lunch" theory, though? If it was genetically advantageous for a virus to mutate more than it normally does, why wouldn't it already be doing so?
That could have happened, It seems awfully silly to pass out at an ATM machine with your laptop in tow, though. I don't see much evidence either way, so I choose to believe him. Besides, I guess using roofies to rob someone is a common occurrence in the UK:
a) Rohypnol causes retrograde amnesia, too. That is, you won't remember things that happened even before you take it (it prevents short term memory from being converted to long term) b - d) It causes disorientation and loss of inhibitions. You not only not understand what's going on, but your guard is down. e) Yea, he says he waited, or more precisely was recovering from being drugged. f) I don't see where he claimed that. He just said the police wouldn't follow up on it. g) What's to report? It would just appear to be a sloppy drunk being taken home by friends. It wasn't a kung fu style brawl. h) If the police aren't doing anything, what do you want him to do? i) The bloody glove! Maybe a recurring charge, perhaps? It did occur on the first of the month j) Would they? What would he say to them? For what purpose? He already has the thief's mugshot and address. k) If he wasn't planning on getting blind drunk, then this would normally be ok. l) Hardly evidence he was hiding anything. Would you want to blast to the entire world you were surreptitiously taking secret recording of someone wanking?
And, anyway, what would the motive be? What, in your opinion, really happened? Did he sell the laptop to somebody and then decided to smear his name and reputation on the internet for no reason? Occum's razor here...
A punishment needs to be cruel and unusual to violate the constitution. A supermax prison may or may not be cruel, but given that there are 25,000 prisoners in solitary confinement in the U.S., it doesn't meet the standard of "unusual".
They could get around this by having the insurance company work with the manufacturer, so you lease the automated driving software and one of the terms of the lease is to pay for the manufacturer's insurance cost for the use of the automated car. Or you have the insurance contract written to support both automated and non-automated driving. Automated driving should have cheaper insurance if it works better than the average driver, which makes it a win for everybody.
That's not going to work. As soon as the ASIC's are here, the difficulty will be pushed up so it all balances out again as an equilibrium. Keep in mind there is around a 24 * 6 * 25 * 100 = $360K per day revenue stream coming in. So if only $36K of electricity is used by the current set of miners, then more people will buy the new ASIC's and the profit margin will decrease again (and more electricity will be used/wasted). This also scales with the bitcoin price, so if it goes to $1000, expect 10 times the power use by the miners eventually.

.. am I the only person who *wants* a wide scale pandemic that kills off a large percentage of the human race?
Hitler had a lot of the same ideals as you, so there's one.
"61 cents!!?!?!?! No!!!!!" as crackles of thunder emanate from the nerd's basement
There's only one thing technology does: set the bar higher in the struggle for survival.
As well as allow you to reach a wider audience with your crack pot theories, I suppose
Stop donating to the politicians that cross them?

This is really interesting. How well does your code perform?
Art escapes all attempts to define it. enjoy being wrong.
Then why use the term at all?

"Passe" jumped the shark years ago.
Just be careful what you say over there. You don't want to get hell banned...

How can you be personally responsible for someone else spiking your drink with a roofie?
Because he was confused and bewildered and his new "friend" convinced him he needed cash.
According to him, his drink was spiked.

Wakka Wakka!
You're completely wrong and the article is correct.
That's not going to work. As soon as the ASIC's are here, the difficulty will be pushed up so it all balances out again as an equilibrium.
