Because, if you read the article, you'd realise this extension is for the rare occasions when charges brought against someone require cooperation from international law-enforcement agencies, a process which takes a long time. If it was possible for them to charge them instantly, they'd do it. They're not doing this for shits and giggles, but to allow them in extreme circumstances to spend a bit longer in gathering evidence. They're not going to use this for everyone they catch on the street.
You reactionary idiot. Read the article. Actually, don't. Spare the Brits your ridiculous personality, and stay at home. They don't need some ignorant asshat running around expecting the sky to fall on his head, rape his family, burn his flag, and blow up the nearest Krispy Kreme. Muppet.
You want some help getting the sand out of your vagina? It sounds pretty bad - you should call 911 and ask for the coast guard. It might not be too late.
You like seeing over traffic? What happens if everyone drove a car like yours - you'd not see over traffic any more. 6'3? Why not just get a decent car. Don't get anything American, and you'll probably get some decent suspension if you spend enough money. Get a Volvo wagon or something - they can go cross-country, they hold a lot of stuff, they have great handling, and lots of space. Plus, they're built like tanks.
So you attribute the weight gain to safety features? Are you seriously saying the *only* difference between a 1979 Honda Civic and a 2008 Honda Civic (29 years apart) is the safety equipment?? Not the size, or the engine, or the electronics, or any of the other thousand non-safety-related improvements made to production cars?
It's not as black and white as you make it out to seem. With inherently-dangerous things (cars, guns, nukes, tanks, massive vials of ebola) a balance has to be struck between how needed it is, and how many people can be killed if it goes wrong. The desired outcome is not just to make sure people who act stupidly with said items are punished, but also includes making sure that person is not in a position to kill a bunch of innocent people. It's part prevention, and part punishment. Getting rid of cars is not going to happen because nearly everyone relies on one many times during the day. The argument for guns being removed from society is that they are seldom used for their intended purpose (when compared to, say, cars - not many people have to shoot many things every day), and are commonly used for criminal activity, resulting in irreversible damage to people. Gun-free countries claim the societal cost of getting rid of them is far outweighed by the sheer number of gun crimes that are prevented simply by not having guns available in shops on street corners. That's why you're not allowed a nuclear weapon - the very slight chance that it's misused will result in the deaths of a lot of people. But I digress.
A friend of mine in LA asked her buddy if he could move her furniture in his truck. He said he didn't want the bed getting scratched up, and refused. So it looks like anecdotal evidence won't shed any light on this subject. Oh well.
Most places sell unlocked phones with a contract, or with a prepaid credit. Or you can spend a few bucks/euros/pounds and get it unlocked at any of the places that offer it. Since the trend towards selling subsidized unlocked phones, the demand for unsubsidized unlocked phones has diminished greatly.
Well, surely the decision on what to use will be made by someone with technical knowledge, not some PHB. And if not, the technical people that bought it to their attention can explain the situation. Any company where technically-illiterate people make IT decisions doesn't deserve to operate. And yet they still do:)
Oh I know - I always get a geeky laugh out of those shows. I just wanted to point out that they use this stuff on the show's set to get the desired effect of zooming into a picture, that's all.:)
Not particularly. Their S3 and EC2 services are completely seperate from their webserver. All throughout this outage, S3 and EC2 have been running flawlessly, as usual. If anything, this is a great reflection on how resilient their clusters are.
They actually use SeaDragon (the name of the technology) on CSI, for those sections you're talking about. Obviously they lie about what it's doing, but that's the software you see.
If that's their most pressing issue, then clearly they're not firing on all cylinders. And let's not get into your racist agenda/gun control rant, as I can't see that helping your argument in the slightest.
And if the fraudsters were smart enough to make their code only corrupt the votes once more than a few dozen have been cast, that won't show anything. The fraudsters have complete free-reign over the counting, so it's impossible to tell. Even on an untouched box, you just can't tell. If you can't tell, it's not democracy.
That's the whole problem with these voting machines. Because the entire process is shielded from view by the code being proprietary, it's impossible to guarantee no-one is fudging the numbers.
Nope. If they've edited the HTML of a page to insert an ad, knowing what is new content and what is original will be impossible, as they can shift around IP addresses and server names for their off-site content.

No, it should be: UK Police can still hold people for 28 days with permission from high-ranking officers and judicial oversight. Oh noes!!!11eleven.

I don't know, but I bet there's a lady chained to a radiator, crying, somewhere near by.

I was reading about this company yesterday. They were behind the mystery job challenge, hiring people to work on this very project.
In PHP:
0 == false == NULL
but,
0 !== false !== NULL

The 300KM/h line from Paris to Munich is fantastic. I want to see them get their 560KM/h service up and running for general use.

It's the actual software they use on CSI. Read more here.
No, this is the software they use on CSI (NY, at least). You can read a few articles about it starting here.

So, to sum up: You can't.

They can't do that? Not even with a massive version of Cain? :-P
