I'm sure they would like to, but they can't. Have you heard of something called financial regulations?
Can you cite a financial regulation that prohibits anonymous financial transactions? Since cash, bitcoin, and anonymous prepaid debit cards are all legal, I doubt if any such regulation exists.
I can, In Australia it is the financial transactions reporting ACT, meant to prevent money laundering and it is imposed on all financial institutions. As I understand it many other countries have similar financial regulations for both money laundering and "terrorism" finance tracking. It kicks in at various amounts.
no thanks, I like knowing I have a way to reverse transactions for scumbags that scam, I also like to know their is financial obligations on places like mastercard to reimburse me for fraudulent transactions, all of the protections disappear with bitcoin type anonymity. I have no need of anonymous financial transactions for credit cards.
I work in enterprises, usually the best tool is the primary concern. However their are so many areas where everyone has similar functionality that there is no best, just your preferred poison and then cost becomes a factor, especially time investment. I have no interest in contributing in my own time, nothing against contributing but my free time I like to spend away from the computer and work have no interest in paying me to contribute.
sounds like they are trying to install new chandeliers in the titanic. Seriously they don't need new features they need to either get out of the smartphone business or completely reinvent it, currently they are close to irrelevant as companies abandon them on mass and consumers already left them.
laptops are really poor for handwritten notes and extremely awkward in meetings. a Tablet though is perfect for meetings, but obviously sucks as a real work device. So really the choose is either 2 devices or one device that works pretty well in both environments but may not be outstanding in either. The small compromise for a huge amount of convenience is worth it to a lot of people.
The idea of seizure or more precisely freezing his assets in this case is to prevent him disposing of them BEFORE due process has taken place, otherwise there is noting stopping him selling everything and funneling into offshore account or flushing it on blow and hookers.
And if he was giving away all his ill gotten gains then I would support him instead of condemning him for the scumbag he is. At the moment he is little more than a Robber Baron, robbing from the rich to make himself richer.
The car was part of the assets under seizure, so no he can't sell it. compared to what most people go through in such a criminal trial where the assets may be considered illicit gains he has actually been treated unbelievably well. He was able to keep his money to spend on his legal bills as well as a political campaign, gambling and even a ridiculous music venture and a monthly rent bill that was $80,000. seriously that is nearly a million a year he was spending on rent.
A variety of ways, some banks implement an sms based approval where an confirmation code is texted to your phone to confirm the transaction before it is processed. MY bank in Australia uses this, though it can be a pain in the arse when travelling overseas if I need to use that card online.
.NET with Xamarin is one of the better development/cross platform options for mobile development, the fact you dismiss it so quickly shows a great deal of ignorance on your part.
There is a big difference between assets that were always hers or earned by her and those that are transferred to her to hide them. They are generally treated differently by most countries to prevent people using this as a method to hide assets in these situations.
The thing is, no matter how much of a douchbag you think he is the fact that he is fighting illegal actions by the US government against a citizen of another country is enough lend your support. Sometimes you have to support scoundrels if you want to support freedom.
NO I really don't. There are so many genuine cases happening all the time where people are being treated like shit by the government that there is no needed to support a scumbag, especially a rich piece of shit scumbag that has no one to blame but himself for his situation.
Most countries have reformed trust laws and such a tactic would not legally hide any of the money, I would be shocked if they haven't also addressed these laws in NZ as this tactic has been addressed in many other countries.
considering the money he spent on extravagance, political campaigning and other crap I would hardly say he was bankrupted by the system. System may not have helped but his own spending is more of an issue here.
What did he say that is even the slightest bit racist? It is actually what the WHO and many other organisations are saying. The burial customs involve in many cases, touching, kissing and washing the body, these are massive problems and have been one of the primary vectors of infection. Their culture is killing them, for the time being they need education that they must restrain from those customs, which if I understand correctly is actually happening.
Biometric certainly ISN'T a time saver. They tend to be slow to process and take more time than most authentication options. Surely you have proximity cards or smart cards, they are a far easier, faster option if all you are after is a fast easy authentication method.
I actually wonder if Yahoo were aware of this intended change. If not then I would expect them to back out of the deal or someone at Yahoo needs a major biatch slapping for such an idiotic sponsorship decision.
Once one has fired a Salvo the other is really obliged to do the same otherwise everyone else will see them as an easy mark. Blame the twat that decided to fire the first salvo and the idiotic patent laws. Samsung appear to be proceeding down the only avenue that the current ridiculous laws allow.
It is complete and utter fraud, no ifs or buts. The intention of the fake listing is purely to defraud Walmart. This is not a shades of grey situation, it is straight out criminal behavior that should see them if caught be prosecuteded
What possible right of due process do they have here? you have a group of students trying to dictate what others can or cannot do with their money. The students have crossed the line and I personally hope they get some heavy damages and costs awarded against them for this.

meh, been a while since I had to deal with it, close enough though :-) thanks.

If I start spending time contributing back to open source, then open source is no longer the cheapest and best option for the areas in which I use it.

that argument only works if Nvidia were the victim here.

So simple, so why the fuck did the article have to call it something so complex.
