you know what else strangles our economic recovery?? when idiots hit the B for billion instead of M for million.
this is purely aimed at stopping accidents, not preventing you from making large profits on selling shares. seriously do you think a 10% price rise in 5 minutes isn't a good profit?!?!
although i don't agree that he just stumbled onto this computers - it's bloody obvious he targeted DoD computers in an attempt to access information he new damn well he didn't have the right to. I also don't think hard time for this kind of face saving nonesense is right either.
I think lots and lots of community service, fixing PC's for the elderly or refurbishing PC's the low income earners, is the right way to go with non violent crimes like this, which frankly are pretty victimless.
5 years doing helpdesk support every weekend for free would cure him of any urges to break into other computers. hell he'd probably vomit at the sight of a pc after that.
"American expats are the only nationals in the world who have to pay income tax to their country of citizenship"
BBZZZTTT, WRONG! Australians also have to pay income tax to the Aaustralian tax office even though the don't live there or use any of the services that income tax provides.
indeed he does sound like a fucking cry baby. i'd hate to see what would happen if he got pulled over for a random breath test.
we'd probably be reading on/. how the police are harassing him and there would be breathless moments where he thought the cops were going to gun him down.
none of this happened online nor does it have anything to do with anything online - his passport had expired and he has a criminal record, they simply took it to verify this. all of 15 minutes. the stupid fuck should thank his lucky stars it didn't take 6 hours the speed most government employees move at.
the sun DOES cause cancer, lots of it, especially here in oz. it's one of the most ironic things i've seen, is an english back packer burnt to a crisp and still standing out in the blazing sun, while talking on his mobile phone with one of those radiation covers on his mobile phone.
No. they have studied cell phones and links to cancer to death well and truly by now. no one, even those who have actively set out to find a link between them has been able to establish anything of substance.
The fact it's in the microwave band means nothing and is just FUD. they don't transmit with any great strength, you'd have to duct tape one to your head and set it to transmit 24/7 for a long time to do any damage.
I have to strongly disagree here. in theory it could, but pretty much EVERYONE uses their pc for more then just email and web. they use it for playing movies, streaming, games
are they willing though? the iphone and ipad don't go even close to replacing a PC, i'd say he's managed to get them to expand their gadget collection, not replace a real PC
steve gets a little market share and it goes to his head.
here in the real world, he hasn't hardly made a dent in personal computing. I'd admit he has cornered the wanky new toy gadget market, that's about it.
yes. resources industries get milked heavily in taxes and royalties directly, and then indirectly via taxes on their employees high wages and capital purchases etc.
the resources industry pays more in taxes then pretty much anyone else.
HE'S A GODWIN PEOPLE, THEY NEVER HAVE ANY INSIGHT!!!!!!!
screw you caps filter, screw you caps filter, screw you caps filter, screw you caps filter, screw you caps filter, screw you caps filter, screw you caps filter, screw you caps filter, screw you caps filter, screw you caps filter, screw you caps filter, screw you caps filter, screw you caps filter,
that's retarded. the GPL only applies on distribution, so if i install xwidget on sally's work pc i need to make sure she gets a cd of the source? no, total fail.
your almost right, and this is also the reason no one outside of OSS wants to touch GPL.
the work you do for an employer belongs to them, they do not however have the legal right to override a pre existing contract such as the GPL.
so the GPL'd libraries you reference do not bleong to them, and if your project won't work without them it's tough tittes. They can still freely use these libraries but they must provide all the source of the project to anyone they distribute the project to, inluding your works (that's the copy left part).
this is what makes the GPL a horrid mess to work with in a commercial environment, and why i only touch bsd libraries.
if you cut off all forms of energy prouduction, what are you going to develop alternative solutions with? it doesn't matter how motivated you are if you don't have the resorces to follow through.
this is a concept a lot of AGW people struggle to get - you need oil and coal to get off oil and coal.

unfair and stupid, yes.
no.
I give you 1/10, only for how funny it is that you think the USA is the only country that's like this. fail.

wikipedia is unbiased? HAHAHAHA!!!! just take jimbo wales as a prime example. the guy and his cronies insert their own bias EVERYWHERE.
I just find it amusing your so outraged over it.

most insightful comment so far. it does seem a lot like they set out to prove cell phones cause brain cancer, and were disappointed when it didn't.
The fact it's in the microwave band means nothing and is just FUD. they don't transmit with any great strength, you'd have to duct tape one to your head and set it to transmit 24/7 for a long time to do any damage.

if you think software is expensive now, wait till every piece of software needs liability insurance.
not if the process means the hydrogen gets bound up in your catalyst or leaves it in some other unusable form.
