...and you don't think it's beyond the bounds of possibility they've had a word in her ear and said words to the effect of "blame the software, and we'll go easy"?
The 12 year old in question's family is stating this? Don't you think they have an understandably vested interest in appearing very contrite and sorry about this, whilst shifting the responsibility to someone else?
Last time I looked, Kazaa's got notices all over the place that tells you not to pirate stuff with it.
p2p tools are just that: tools. Remember,
p2p programs don't infringe copyright. people infringe copyright.
you try representing an annotated ECG trace in a text file. We have a requirement to keep the original data in its original format for viewing by the FDA.
Or try maintaining an audit trail for examination within an application in a plain text file. It's not that simple.
What I meant to say, is:
You write to whatever media is in vogue, and then periodically you read it back, checksum it to make sure it's not corrupted, then write it back again to a new media. Repeat ad nauseum.
Now imagine you've got to do this for whole applications and infrastructures to support those applications, and have them instantly viewable by the FDA at any point over a 25 year period.
This is what working in pharamceutical IS is like.
...new corporate laptops with wifi and bluetooth, USB keyrings (try turning THEM off by group policy without completely disabling USB) - at a recent corporate event that covered the "hard work our teams have done fixing the effects of blaster" (caused by a corporate laptop being connected to something it shouldn't have been) they even gave 64MB pendrives out to everyone, FFS...
well, right now we're getting outsourced to ibm and suddenly everyone's being replaced by kids on 8UKP an hour who are nearly 60% as good as the people they replace
They've already shut down and sold their HDD business to Hitachi. And they were called "Deathstars". And this ThinkCenter we've got on loan looks a bit like Darth Vader.
If your work has proximity swipe cards - you're already carrying round RFID. Slide the card inside tinfoil and you'll find it doesn't work. I discovered this when mine fell into the tin foil i use for wrapping my sandwiches...
Slashdot Mirror
the 3d information's all contained within the opengl layer, you just need to write appropriate video drivers.
do you not have a sense of humour? i thought this joke was quite obvious, perhaps i should have simplified it for you.
Can you imagine how bad Powerpoint presentations are going to be with this sort of technology? It was bad enough when we gave them clip art...

no, you archive to then you read and rewrite to and use checksumming or similar to make sure they're ok.

Catch my drift?
So if Macdonalds sold a drink that if you spilled it on yourself, it was lethal, you wouldn't see anything wrong in that? You're an idiot.

And you don't see anything wrong with that sentence? You stupid, stupid cock.
with anything that contains large capacitors
...you can get in *anywhere* with them if you frown hard enough
Oh, and 3G calls to GSM mobiles are presumably still open...
Coincidence?
Didn't Palm (sorry, Pa1m!) have a patent a year or so ago about this moving-a-window-on-a-bigger-virtual-screen thing?
Call me cynical, but I don't think the US government are getting into this for the sake of safeguarding my PC from viruses...
what have you been watching?
crap! K++/KLite from the Edskes sites et al does none of these things. It just doesn't do it.
Kazaa Lite is a hacked version of Kazaa, with the spyware and adware removed.
what's this GNAA in-joke, anyways?
