PCI compliance makes you less likely to be breached -- but you still can be breached. PCI compliance mitigates the damage caused by said breach -- but you're still responsible.
I personally applaud Apple for saying NO to unreasonable search and intrusion as an American citizen in US residence, even though it might likely bite them in the ass and cost them business.
It may not cost them business. I'm in the market for a tablet, and was ignoring an iPad because of price. But with Apple fighting the Three Letter Agencies over this, I'm reconsidering. If others feel the same way I do, it might be GOOD for business.
I attended Hellman's talk in 2014 at "Pohlfest" (celebrating Ira Pohl on his retirement). Hellman flat out said that a Three Letter Agency tried to censor him.
It amazes me that so many allegedly "educated" people have fallen so quickly and so hard for a fraudulent fabrication of such laughable proportions. The very idea that a gigantic ball of rock happens to orbit our planet, showing itself in neat, four-week cycles -- with the same side facing us all the time -- is ludicrous. Furthermore, it is an insult to common sense and a damnable affront to intellectual honesty and integrity. That people actually believe it is evidence that the liberals have wrested the last vestiges of control of our public school system from decent, God-fearing Americans (as if any further evidence was needed! Daddy's Roommate? God Almighty!)
Documentaries such as Enemy of the State have accurately portrayed the elaborate, byzantine network of surveillance satellites that the liberals have sent into space to spy on law-abiding Americans. Equipped with technology developed by Handgun Control, Inc., these satellites have the ability to detect firearms from hundreds of kilometers up. That's right, neighbors.. the next time you're out in the backyard exercising your Second Amendment rights, the liberals will see it! These satellites are sensitive enough to tell the difference between a Colt.45 and a.38 Special! And when they detect you with a firearm, their computers cross-reference the address to figure out your name, and then an enormous database housed at Berkeley is updated with information about you.
Of course, this all works fine during the day, but what about at night? Even the liberals can't control the rotation of the Earth to prevent nightfall from setting in (only Joshua was able to ask for that particular favor!) That's where the "moon" comes in. Powered by nuclear reactors, the "moon" is nothing more than an enormous balloon, emitting trillions of candlepower of gun-revealing light. Piloted by key members of the liberal community, the "moon" is strategically moved across the country, pointing out those who dare to make use of their God-given rights at night!
Yes, I know this probably sounds paranoid and preposterous, but consider this. Despite what the revisionist historians tell you, there is no mention of the "moon" anywhere in literature or historical documents -- anywhere -- before 1950. That is when it was initially launched. When President Josef Kennedy, at the State of the Union address, proclaimed "We choose to go to the moon", he may as well have said "We choose to go to the weather balloon." The subsequent faking of a "moon" landing on national TV was the first step in a long history of the erosion of our constitutional rights by leftists in this country. No longer can we hide from our government when the sun goes down.

Which translates to, "If we didn't say the Feds can do it, they can't."

Have you ever tried to install the ORIGINAL version of XINU? Comer wrote it for the LSI-11.

Who makes E-Ink readers besides Amazon?
Is Kobo still around?
I *was* considering a kindle.
Now I'll either get a Nook or just a regular table (maybe an iPad, given the Apple kerfluffle)
Sure... when you suicidal bastards acknowledge the right of Israel to exist, and stop lobbing rockets into Israel.

Dude, this one has been around for YEARS.

Does that mean we can't mock Shatner's toupee, either?
"Computer Science" is defined as "Using Microsoft Word"
This technology despite the claims of the article isn't green at all
Maybe they use red apples?
I guess they're going to be using Apple /// computers. Those were pretty rotten.
But in this case one GOOD apple spoils the rest....
Bug, my ass. This was deliberate, and they were hoping nobody would call them on it.
Boomers run through 1964. X-ers start sometime after that.
It was a problem as far back as 1978.

And... "The Internet responded by pirating his album in droves."
My only question is, "Why would ANYONE want his album?"
Does a 5c have the fingerprint sensor?
I thought they were talking about all the boobs on the people at the Grammies
Now here's a thought. What if I live in a 2-party consent state, visit a friend, and say something near his Samsung TV?
Who is in violation of the wiretapping laws? My friend? Samsung? Someone else?
Git off my lawn!
I spent $3200 for 32MB once.
Also spent close to $1000 for a 1GB SCSI drive.
