The BBC is regularly berated by the current government. And by all other political parties. Which is usually a good indication that they're getting it right.
No, I think you'll find that was written in all seriousness. Not all writers and readers of Conservapedia may agree whole-heartedly on its sentiments, but Conservapedia has never had a problem with contributors bringing their own personal opinions into edits. (As long as they don't markedly differ from the owners of Conservapedia.)
Well that seems like a reasonable request, but companies are not obliged to help you fix the situation you've got yourself into. You in a situation where you am 100% to blame, but somehow you get to demand that the company assist you?
If I bought a Blueray and lost the case, so I no longer knew who appears in it, are the company obliged to run a service where I can buy an empty case to replace it? After all, I already have the disk, and my licence, they have no right to force me to buy them again!
Or if I bought a pack of cards, do I get to demand that the manufacturer of the cards also sells single cards, for when I lose one? What use is a pack missing one card? I demand the manufacturer provides this service because I am a customer who has already purchased 51 cards!
There comes a point when there is no profit to be made in helping out customers who are in a position of their own doing. Companies have no obligation to provide additional services that don't benefit them.
I believe a great many criminal acts get discussed on the streets on London. What is Boris Johnstone and the London councils doing about it, or are they providing a self haven for these people?
Your license to play the movie is on the disk. Sony wants to verify this license. If you break the disk, you have destroyed your license. If you copy the disk without the license on it, you cannot prove you have a license.
Unless you're expecting Sony to keep a record of all those who have purchased a licence, by whatever means through millions of retail channels, you need to be the one who retains the licence. If you destroy the license, or keep it elsewhere, what proof do you have that you are licensed?
I'm not saying it isn't a pain, but it's perfectly logical and reasonable.
I'm not seeing the problem with a company, if that is how they wish to conduct their business, making it hard for people to duplicate their output without payment. Exactly what is "consumer hostile" about ensuring consumers have paid for what they consume? Hint for you; if you didn't pay for it, you are not a customer of the company, and why should they care if you are inconvenienced?
If you buy a BluRay disk and ruin it, then that's your problem and you should take more care. Why should the company who sold you it be obliged to do anything about it?
The root kit scandal was a case of corporate ham-fisted ignorance dabbling in something they knew too little about. A ransomware attack on a different arm of the company, 9 years later, affecting people who had absolutely nothing to do with the root kit, is a criminal act.
If you're wearing a smile because of this you have very strange ideas about what's morally right, and really should be finding something more positive in life to make you happy.
Fair enough. But if you think you are interesting enough for the NSA to be watching you (so much so that you download and use this tool) you may have just done enough to make you interesting enough for NSA to watch you.
Employees having been whining about their boss' incompetence since the beginning of time. A large percentage of them reckon they can do their bosses job, and better.
And then one day they have to do a bosses job. That's when they find out that there's way more to it than they imagined.
I don't think I will ever consider music as videos. That is what YouTube does; videos. Music is sound, it is not visuals. This is a fundamental difference that is not up for redefining.
Yes these things happen all the time. Which is why anyone with a shred of professionalism and experience doesn't add crap like this to a paper that will be read by external people at some point. If you have a habit of doing this, it will catch you out eventually.
Recruitment companies are two-faced liars and parasites who play the company off the employee. Never forget this when dealing with them from either side.
What music and art is "fine" is an entirely subjective opinion, so this is a meaningless statement. Personally I find a fair proportion of jazz a turgid cacophony. Why would I subject my children to that?
Give them whatever they enjoy and whatever will expand their horizons.
The pope says we have. "He created human beings and let them develop according to the internal laws that he gave to each one so they would reach their fulfillment."
His problem is that he wants his proclamation to mean something to each individual, a sentiment safely within religions' comfort-zone. Yet evolution means very little for individuals, only to species. So he's come out with a fudge that tries to gloss over the distinction and invents these "internal laws" that pre-defines the direction of evolution towards an end goal of fulfilment. That's not what evolution is.
So according to the infallible one, either I have reached my fulfilment, or human beings have. Which one is it? And how is this distinguished from a god with a magic wand?
You might think this is a step forward, but his proclamation still makes a nonsense of evolution. Evolution has no "internal laws". We have not reached "fulfilment", or indeed any kind of end point to the journey.

Keep up. We're discussing Bluray and Cinavia.

Which federal government?
Would it have hurt to mention which government ?

There is no professional service being offered that a license would affect.
FTFY.
So the headline should be;
Big Data guess quite well when the average employee may quit a job, on average, usually.
But that doesn't make as good a click-bait.

Maybe AC is not the original poster?
Give them fine music & jazz, fine art
What music and art is "fine" is an entirely subjective opinion, so this is a meaningless statement. Personally I find a fair proportion of jazz a turgid cacophony. Why would I subject my children to that?

Why guess when you can RTFA? Then you might get the right answer. Or was that not what interested you?

What is wrong with a physical key? Are they so big that people can't manage to carry them?
Keyless cars seem to be a fancy, insecure solution for a problem that barely exists.
