Actually driving licenses are classifed as ID cards.
I don't require a passport to visit the UK.
What you have is an identity document that is classified as a passport, it follows the ePassport standard, which is why it can be used as a passport. It is not unlike the UK's BRP cards or Gibraltar's Identity Document. You cannot come to the UK on just an "ID card", it needs to double as a passport. So, you can't use things like a driving license, like you can in the schengen area, you can't use a wojewodztwa, like you can in the schengen area, you can't use a voting card, like you can in the schengen area etc.
Britain is leaving the EU precisely so that the wealthy don't have to suffer the effects of the EU initiative to reclaim unpaid taxes.
We're leaving the EU because that's the way we voted. My vote had nothing to do with "unpaid taxes".
Plenty of other reasons and promises, many mutually incompatible, were give to people to encourage them to vote out.
My vote was based on the remainer's argument. There is certainty in the EU. So, I looked at the trends based on their argument and decided I preferred uncertainty instead.
EEC was brought in under the guise of it bringing prosperity, that's what I judged it under when it came time to vote.
Also, the EU is not run by an unelected group.
The EC which has overriding powers and it's members are not under influence of democratic voting mechanisms by the people in the EU.
A group _appointed_ by elected people is responsible for creating the initial wording of legislation
No, that's the EP, the EC can override the EP and even sets the topics that EP can discuss and vote on.
That's what happens when you have porous, heavily-crossed borders between areas of different levels of gun control. Correctly-implemented (read: national) gun control would help this massively, but is unpalatable to many it seems.
You can't even keep drugs or mobile phones out of high security prisons in the US, what realistic hope do you have to even accomplish this goal? Even in North Korea, American movies are traded and watched despite being highly prohibited content in a country that operates under a strict regime.
The problem for the gun advocates is they campaigning for a minimum level of gun violence, yet they never tell us what that minimum level is
They do, they tell you about how situations would have been stopped sooner. So you've been told it would be less than not having it. That's the "minimum level".
I have no problem with them being forced to offer it to the public.
I think they shouldn't.
But, what I think should happen is a very clear advisory must be verbally provided to the consumer in a store (or otherwise displayed on the product page clearly) about the loss of the repairability of the device, that Apple do not allow authorized sellers to replace most components and that they set the repair terms, prices etc. The regulation done in such a way that they cannot spin it.
I don't like false advertising and I don't like uninformed purchases. However, I think people should be free to sell and purchase what they want, as long as all parties understand the situation accurately.
Proprietary formats, protocols and interfaces are a pox on society.
Another thing I think the customer should be informed about in simple detail as to what they lose out on in this situation.
One of the issues that happens time and again is when I ask for the public key to install, they send me the private+public pair unencrypted via email and now I have their wild-star EV private cert that expires in 2 years.
I can imagine. I've worked with a few companies that specialize in security and had my fair share of ridiculous experiences.
Just because someone can do the job doesn't mean they're competent.
I would argue if they aren't competent, they can't do the job.
So you memorized all the bullshit answers to all the bullshit questions to bullshit your way into the social club.
Memorized? Nope, I could just do the job with the practical work right there and then, including things that I didn't have training for because I understood the software well or intuitively apply what I learned from one peice of software to another.
But CS people haven't memorized the answers to your practical interview test word for word.
I'll give you an example of a practical I give to someone who is applying for a job that deals with webservices and SSL management:
This is a 40 minute practical, you're free to use google and look up anything you need. Please tell me which operating system you'd like to use, Windows or Linux and I will spin up the cloud server for you. You are free to download and use any tools you want to accomplish this.
Generate a SSL certficate for a webserver. Install the SSL certificate on the webserver. Generate a Certificate Authority. Sign the SSL certificate with the Certificate Authority. Install the SSL certificate into the system's certificate store.
You will find most certifications actually don't cover this, nor do CS courses usually. However certifications for adminstration familarize you with operating systems and tools sufficiently that you can actually figure out more or less what you need to do, to get the job done and understand how to use Google to figure out what you need. So, memorisation isn't really a thing here either.
This is what the practical it self tests, whether you're able to actually get the job done, because with an ever changing IT landscape, being able to do the work in an environment that is changing due to disruptions constantly in the industry.
Understanding is irrelevant.
It is relevant, that's why they don't get the job most of the time. The vast majority I interact with can't even grasp what 'strace' is or how to debug a userland application with it.
No. How about I just murder you?

There's nothing for me in this world, except to kill overpaid shit like you.
The only reason why I get paid well is because there are so few people in the industry that can actually do the work I do (I'm a heavy generalist - I can do development in x86 asm, m68k asm, c, c++, c#, java, python, perl, rust, go to a very senior level. I can do system administration/devops to very senior level. I do reverse engineering work on protocols, software and hardware. I can build custom embedded platforms from scratch. I can do project management, bid work and architect work. I can do datacenter work, including architecting etc - I didn't learn any of this from certifications) do it well, do it quickly and relatively future proof it.
No, it's just a policy to look for people with practical skills. If you're coming with zero experience and just a Computer Science Degree, you'll still go through the practcal interview process, but likely to fail because you have no knowledge of MCSE, CCNP practical knowledge, even though is is an 'openbook' practical, meaning you're free to Google and use any common operating system (in the clould) and tools accessible to you (hint: most people who just a CS degree fail).
You sucked cock to get a job, got it.
I trivially found the requirements for the industry I want to be in and got into it, didn't waste eight years studying. Cry some more.
I have multiple computer science degrees, and I have applied to thousands of job openings. The number of offers I have received in my entire career is the number zero.
My company has many openings, but we want certifications of practical work, not computer science degrees. Computer Science degrees are for research institutions, that also expect you have degrees in mathematics and the sciences, possibly an engineering degree too.
Fuck you lying sacks of shit who claim anybody ever gets paid anything. Expected salary is zero, and return on investment is negative.
I never fell into this trap because when I finished high-school, I called up various company recruiters for jobs I wanted in the future and told them that I don't have any qualifications or such right now, just finished school, but I will go do the courses/training they're looking for. I got told to do CCNA, MCSE etc. No university work. I did about 2-3 months of studying various certifications, it took about another month for my certifications proper to come in and I got into the industry instantly after that, no problem.
Computer science is a dead field, you goddamed lying trolls. Fuck you!!
No it isn't. you just didn't go to the institutions that want it, nor did you get all the per-requsits necessary for it that I noted above.

It's not effective enough; I still see your comments, APK.
Only for domestic UK flights.

You already do with the UK and Ireland to to other EU countries and vice versa. Hardly a loss from your example for these countries.
So you're going to focus on banning cars first then?
An RPG would be legal under a category A license in France.
I would argue it just doesn't work, no matter how much you scale it up.
You can't even keep drugs or mobile phones out of high security prisons in the US, what realistic hope do you have to even accomplish this goal? Even in North Korea, American movies are traded and watched despite being highly prohibited content in a country that operates under a strict regime.
The EU is only a part of Europe, it is not Europe.
They were banned from that area; didn't work.
They do, they tell you about how situations would have been stopped sooner. So you've been told it would be less than not having it. That's the "minimum level".
What's so hard to understand?
Guns are legal in Europe too, this argument is invalid.
Nobody is stopping you move to China, move there if you really want to.
I think they shouldn't.

That's Public Domain software. Just work on that instead of Open Source.
**Apple have very
So, what I understand from this is Apple are very complex products that can't be repaired. So, when they break, throw them away.

I do now, less than a second. It was that easy to find on Google.

Yes, I can. My day rates are generally on par with Deloitte and KPMG for such projects.
