Re: Working your notice
Don't forget you have to ensure that the bad cases work as expected too
Test Case: Aircraft Guidance System
ID: AGS002
Expected Results: Plane broken, flames visible, occupants show no signs of life.
Re: Colour and contrast are not just for "ooh, look at the shiny thing"
Don't forget that avon and somerset police have sign language on their website
They supposedly say it's for the deaf that don't have English as their primary language, but you have to be able to read the links to find it

constantly reporting
I flip a coin to decide if excel is going to crash this time...
Definately changeable
I remember a forecast for sunshine, hail, snow and sleet in the same day - and the forecaster got them all right !
PIN?
What pin?
no pin for a credit card, and most debit cards can be used as credit cards. Add to this the fact that most places don't check signature, and you can do a lot of damage with a found card.
Fail for Visa/MasterCard/Whatever that don't implement something suitably more secure, and Fail for the retailer that just blindly accepts that card possesion is the same as card ownership
So?
and just because you and/or some critics liked it, everyone should bow down, and crawl on hands and knees to their local record store, and buy every copy available as penance?

New arial surveilence option
Trebuchet - Only takes 1 plod - we can motorise the winching and release. They may have to have a 2nd plod to guard the landing pad, but depending on who was due to be launched, that would be optional

Two pair - Aces over eights
Apple recognised that Apps are
a pain in the butt, but as they are the only place you can get an app, we can keep them sanitised, and not allow anything that might hint at the users doing anything than drooling over the phones, or allowing an app through that duplicates a function of the phone, just does it better, or that gets rejected because Lord Jobs left testicle is itching thins morning.
Yep
The state I reside in has had a texting ban since January. The county announce recently they have imposed fines on 12 people.
I would like to know what roads they drive on - I can see that many on my 2 mile commute home
turnaround is fair play?
Set the botnet to:
attack itself.
attack Zeus writes
attack other botnets, and create an all out war
uninstall itself (after downloading and installing all windows updates)
install linux, and destroy the windows folder
only 4 writes?
I would hazard more than that, as when you write subsequent tracks, surely you are overwriting even more of already laid down data. This would seem to imply that on average 1/2 the number of tracks would have to be rewritten.

I agree
Rape should be a much harsher sentence. When will a court ever impose the maximum sentence for rape - life ?

what non-compete?
Noncompete agreements are automatically void as a matter of law in California, except for a small set of specific situations expressly authorized by statute. (California Business and Professions Code Section 16600). See, e.g., Edwards v. Arthur Andersen LLP, 44 Cal. 4th 937 (2008). They were outlawed by the original California Civil Code in 1872.[6]
AA Man
This just gives a wonderful picture of the AA man dropping trousers to help you get to the patrol station, and fill up properly
I like these hoaxes
but only as I get to charge an 'Idiot Tax' as I hand over my bill for the minimum of 1 hour fee to tell someone who is insistent that I.T. is wrong, and the world will end tomorrow if security is not improved that it's a hoax, and they should listen to their own people
Enough of these, and sometimes it drills through their thick skull
I can't be a director
but my son/aunt/cousin thrice removed/father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate can be.
Don't mind the man behind the curtain
What a service!
I'll get you off twice.

Wouldn't you think if they can fake Tiffany, then a scrap of paper is going to be easier?
If you think paper is difficult, I have a lot of £100s going cheap

Viruses are updated regularly, respond to threats against them and are well supported by the people who write them. Sorry, Windows doesn't fall into that descrition

Implict?
So, implicit in that statement is also:
Monitor everything I type so I cannot say something to encourage a possible predator
Block everything I show so I cannot show something to encourage a possible predator
Easiest case - block me from everyone else, so I cannot do something to encourage a possible predator.
I feel this is an argument with the red herring fallacy of appeal to fear.
banner ad
or, perhaps ceop, instead of posturing for effect, could actually use some of the govmt money for a reasonable use, and pay facebook for banner ads targeted at UK users under 18. (you know facebook would be able to make this distinction)
SQL?
UPDATE OFFENDERS SET OFFENDERS.ADDRESS = "No Address" WHERE OFFENDERS.ADDRESS = "Wrong Address";
Hmm.. that took 2 seconds to create. I wonder if I can get a job with NYPD to fix their database problems?
Targetting
I have a feeling that many of those report will end up being true......

your proposal then..

Come On!
It's foring you to pick up the phone to a number microsoft foot the bill for and type in a 42 digit code, just because you changed a major part of the hardware?
to use another persons car analogy:
It's like onstar speed limiting your vehicle [not diableing it] just because you ripped the engine and electrics out and put in a JATO rocket.
"but it's still the same car' - not with network/usb/video/cpu/bois changed, it isn't.
boo-hoo - on your 4th reinstall you have to call someone.

Anyone else see a flaw in this logic?
