Some might say that Obama's campaign was publicly financed to a larger degree than any in recent memory. They got so many more contributions from individuals -- what's that if not publicly financed in spirit?
I'm not so sure that the attacks are intended as support of TPB's founders, beloved by all though they are, so much as protest against abuse of the legal system by IFPI et al.
After all, copyrights aren't an entitlement as IFPI are claiming, but an incentive for them to open "their" creations for the common good. They're just trying to extort an increased scope for the standard bribe. Who wouldn't object to that?
At least one commercial background checker uses a herd of part time hires, who are evaluated primarily on volume. The incentive is wrong for evaluating exceptional cases like yours, so I wouldn't trust that were I in your shoes.
As another poster pointed out, that's a good excuse to call HR.
At least they're being charged as accessories instead of for the supposed crime itself. There is at least that small light of hope in what is otherwise a witchhunt.
Obviously, said video was uploaded to preserve evidence against those disparaging the teen. Google is so mean, they took away the evidence that poor teen needed to prosecute his tormentors.
I won't be able to hear any normal click. Should I sue to make sure any camera-like device is required to have huge, distracting, flashing lights and a wake-the-dead alarm? It should at least tap me on the shoulder and sign "camera".
It also discriminates against purse cameras, pen cameras, eyeglass cameras, hat cameras, lapel cameras, traffic cameras, PDA cameras.
No, sorry, I must be allowed to record my experience without distracting people. There's a reason I take notes and pictures: my memory is all but worthless otherwise. You might make an argument against publishing the racier pictures, even with the 1st amendment, but against me recording my own experience? Or do I have to rig up something that will click at regular intervals? I suppose I could wear a metronome.
Right you are. That leads to desperate men, much the way harems and isolating the women in middle eastern culture has bred desperate men. Without frequent wars to keep their population in check, they lash out in other ways. Various evil masterminds have done an amazing job of directing those testosterone poisoned men.
I tried getting through their contact page. It was incredibly frustrating, and they won't even let you contact them unless you agree to some ridiculous terms absolving them from anything and everything, allowing them to email you whenever they want, stuff like that, in order to signup for an account.
Then I tried to search for some of the terms in the title of the page (eg. "SD14") and it couldn't find any pages. That's some search function you've got there, Seagate -- it isn't by any chance hooked up to an empty database is it? Did you by chance have it on a 7200.11 drive?
It's the other way around, trust me. When you hit 40 and Mom hollers down to come up for your birthday party, it's like, "Oh, man am I getting old. That year just flew by."
Instead of making the financial account and login account the same, they should make a login account and attach your one or more financial accounts to it. Then a financial account can cease being active, but the login account can still be connected to it and thus still have access to whatever records exist.
Don't they teach loose vs tight coupling anymore? I keep finding tight coupling in so many inappropriate places these days. Kids these days have no discipline.

At least there's a pretense of procedure. It's when they don't bother with warrants and such that you know they no longer fear their constituency.

I think that's called the Reiser defense.

I think you mean baling wire. One uses buckets for bailing.

Readable code is a good thing. Why are they arguing otherwise? :)
Open source is verifiable. Closed source is not.
Open source is verified, by many people, who discuss it in public. Closed source is not.
Brag about how awesome your site security is. Somebody's bound to take you up on the offer.
Did the guy subpoena MS for the info first? If so and he found info they didn't provide, then MS may be in hot water regardless.
Or was he looking around so he could ask specifically? In which case he was doing MS a favor, researching how to minimally comply with a subpoena.
Or is MS SLAPPing him around?
Corporate espionage my ass. This is investigation. So what if investigation just happens to be by an interested party.
That's how you get organizations like WIPO. Are you sure that's a good idea?

I'm only partly kidding.
No matter how many times you post this story, I still say overlining is underappreciated.
(Why do people get so excited about anniversaries anyway?!)
You're asking the wrong crowd. Ask your wife.

Google's a little more helpful. This page at least might be kinda sorta related: http://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/support/downloads/other_downloads/cuda-fw

Do you mean money lost by the idiot who didn't patch windows, or money lost by all the people against whom their hijacked machine was used?

Oops, applied the milli, but forgot to apply the mega.
Even with my manual accuracy issues, I still think I could do it faster by training a courier cat.
22mbps is .00275MBps
I can do better than that by hand.

Who said he's from Chicago? I thought he was from Hawaii by way of Nigeria. :)
