My understanding is that the House of Lords would have heard this case in the past, before there was a high court. Welcome to the world of appointed judges who legislate from the bench, Great Britain. Fun times - you'll just love it.
All the old details are important here - preinstallation mostly. Sticking a live cd/dvd into a modern system is pretty easy. Hell, I found it easier than installing Windows 7 on a modern laptop. I don't believe I had to know much of anything except my time zone.
I don't really care what happens to the people who use Windows 10. It was their own choice. I made mine - and will never use that heaping pile of shit.
Microsoft is doing precisely what the Linux community could never do - breaking the Windows monopoly by making using Windows undesirable in comparison.
It really is silly season. The bottom line is that Trump is the "fuck you, oligarchy" candidate. We know he's the last chance for a long, long time, if ever, to fuck with the oligarchs. That is why he is being supported. Hillary is the tool of the oligarchy.
Russia is no threat because they aren't suicidal, and do you really think Trump is in their pocket? Get real.
Putin is a good contrast to the feckless current occupant of the White House. That's why he keeps coming up. More a testament to how shitty a leader Obama is than any positive qualities of Putin. Putin has gotten the better of him in every exchange during the last 8 years.
Lots of Microsoft guys carrying them...and that's about it. Everyone non-MS I know who got one ended up at a Microsoft store swapping it out for a replacement because of hardware issues, but I admit a sample size of two is small.
I suppose the subject says it all. I have 3 in the house (I won't use one, but the women do). 2 iPads of various vintages and an Android tablet. No one is dying for an upgrade. This is the problem with selling gadgets with walled gardens. No one tries to do more than you allow with them.
The task of government is to make the system appear fair to all and to achieve a relatively constant justice. Actually being fair and just in all cases is of course, impossible. But governments have been failing at this task of appearing uncorrupted for a while now. The first effect is vigilantism, as we see with Anonymous and Wikileaks. Then it comes off its moorings with random killing to settle scores. Then we're back in medieval times in the West...much of the rest of the world still lives under the threat of random killing. At that point, our communication systems and goods distribution will crash to a halt due to the manifest lack of safety.
We're not far away from that reality. Therefore, any attempt to reassure people that there are consequences for unfair or criminal action is useful. Coming up with more and more baleful punishments for the tiny minority who get caught is not the solution, though.
You didn't ask the right questions. How many people that were sexually assaulted like to talk about it? How many men want to admit that their mothers or grandmothers were raped by foreign soldiers? Former Chancellor Helmut Kohl's wife was one of the raped women.
The bottom line is that over two million German women were gang raped by Soviet soldiers, and tens of thousands by the Western Allies. The gang rapes are frequently said to involve from 10-60 soldiers per woman, and there are records of women being raped over 100 times in a short span. Over ten thousand suicides by women who had been raped. Female suicide is rare in the worst of circumstances. The leadership on both sides were equivocal, and on the Soviet side the behavior was endorsed by Stalin. So much for a moral crusade across Europe. People are evil. Getting to know that evil is key to being honest.
Revisionists who talk along the lines of Holocaust deniers piss me off. The events happened, too much documentation, including Soviet documentation, for this to be false.
Yeah, because the Nazis were the only people ever to do that. It wouldn't have gotten worse in the meantime. Stalin didn't purge his population to a greater degree than Hitler. Mao didn't kill astronomical numbers of his people during his purges. There was no Uganda under Idi Amin. Rwanda didn't happen. There wasn't a breakup of Yugoslavia, even.
The general principle is that you're an awful human being if you infect other people with a disease because it's inconvenient for you to call out of work or to change your travel plans. People do it all the time and they deserve to hear that.
Bullshit. Your responsibility is to self-quarantine until you are sure that you aren't infectious. Otherwise, you're culpable for the people you infect. That jerk who comes to work with an active flu and infects the whole place should have to suffer with ten consecutive flus for that.
The only special pass in this case is that the HIV infected people of the 1970s and 80s had no idea they were sick.
It was a pretty close thing, first of all. Remember area bombing and millions of civilians 'de-housed'? Shooting prisoners and mass sanctioned rapes of German women were also a feature of that "civilized" victory. The world hasn't become a nicer place in the interim.
I have a jerkoff near me that is grunting and breathing like Darth Vader all day. Then you see him outside smoking like a chimney. So I brought in the keyboard and have been torturing him with it for months now.
I also walk by his cube and release SBD farts as much as I can manage.
In essence, I would agree with you, except for the Communist belief that they are on the leading edge of a societal wave that will dominate the world. This found expression in the (insert number here) Internationals at first. When the Soviets gave up on that methodology in the late 1930s, it became more popular to support insurgencies around the world. There were brushfire wars going on all over the world from the 1950s through the early 1990s that were at least partially instigated by the Soviet Union.
You only know about the famous ones - Korea, Afghanistan and Vietnam. Perhaps Cuba. But you don't know so much about Nicaragua, El Salvador, Angola, Malaysia...the list goes on for a long time. So I give you a link with at least outline information about them.
I hope you'll take this opportunity to educate yourself about Soviet aggression.

His company was destroyed because he ignored the law. Let's all feel sorry for him. I'm playing the world's smallest violin.
A boil has been excised from the ass of humanity.
I know a lot of products are supporting the Yubikeys. That would be a good option.
This is where a hardware token or some kind of biometrics could be beneficial, in combination with the password manager.

I heard Trump used Internet Explorer once, too.

She can pardon herself, so this is a non-issue. Congress impeaching her after taking office is not out of the realm of possibility, though.
This product was never going to see the light of day. If it ever had, he would spend the rest of his life fleeing from US law. They did him a favor.

Are you fucking crazy? I think you are.
It even has a fucking Wikipedia article!!
You are delusional. Seek help.
I made an exception to a general principle.

OK, but he was making an overly general statement. People are so inconsiderate already in this world, it doesn't need to get worse.
Bullshit. Your responsibility is to self-quarantine until you are sure that you aren't infectious. Otherwise, you're culpable for the people you infect. That jerk who comes to work with an active flu and infects the whole place should have to suffer with ten consecutive flus for that.

What's the difference besides scale? It's still killing people for no legitimate purpose.

Civilized people are enslaved by those who don't have such scruples.
