Topic - extension of policy by other means
Problem - too much carbon (not a real issue, politically motivated)
Reaction - ignore the Minsk Accord and weaponise the Ukraine
Solution - Russia clear the weapons and US/NATO/EU use sanctions to cripple the oil/gas supply and push prices through the roof.
Is The Register only interested in a single opinion here? Surely it’s CIA supplying the data on Russian soldiers
So this is almost entirely the result of a former home secretary wanting to push through her own version of Brexit. Grammar school education my foot. There's a time and a place and freedom of speech can only be guaranteed by the right to inform and discuss.
Of course it's an old socialists idea that the establishment want to keep a proportion of the populous ignorant of certain truths but believing that raping the earth in the name of business is somehow okay whereas investigating the doctrines of political opponents is not somehow forces us all into a new world of thought crime...
I'm really lucky, Sky can now piggy-back my connection over a bit of OpenReach fibre increasing my projected speed to something between 3 mbps and 9 mbps.
So can anyone explain why it starts at about 6 mbps and after a few days begins to drop by 400kbps or so every morning after the WAN gets a kick???
I'm wondering if it's actually a 'contention management' action to favour BT customers... ???
Whatever we individually want regarding privacy we need to insist on one thing above all others...
Protection of the innocent :: Verification.
It must be possible for the 'suspect' to be able to independently validate that all sources of information have not been tampered with.
Suggestions?
Just a quick reminder - there's no such thing as evolution - it's natural selection....
(for those non-religious zealots out there) I am not going to be another creature in the future, my progeny will simply have a better (or worse) chance of surviving....
Which is why the mouse lives!!!
This is really the only way to handle this, money is all they understand....
Simply add something like this to all your emails....
All email issued with the Copyright Holder's knowledge from the 'foo.co.uk' or the 'bar.co.uk' webdomains and forwarded by or persisted on servers operated by or on behalf of Google is intended only for those recipients listed in the original email headers. Any copies of those communications made during normal email transport will be transient however where those copies are available for inspection by any Third Party including any Business, Government Agency or Law Enforcement Body operating in any Territory then a fee of $1000000(US) is payable on demand for each copy whether or not the content is inspected.
It seems to me that a public data store is one that is available, whether openly or via a restrictive contract, outside the organisation hosting the data store.
It follows that whilst an organisation may navel gaze at the data to it's heart's content, publishing the output of any data processing will ultimately fall foul of the directive if PII rules are broken.
Any users of Windows 7 Ultimate may be familiar with the WinXP VM that is available. Of course, the XP VM is only a 32 bit version and permits some of us to play with old copies of software etc.
So the real queation is: in 3 years will Windows 'N' have made XP redundant?
Okay - you have no sewers, no outside, but as many rooms as you like....
How big a house do you need?
Or, to put it another way,
Where do we put the nuclear waste?
Which room?
Which earthquake, tsunami, hurricane, volcano - proof room do we put the nuclear waste into?
Wake up everyone...
It is time that all Patent Offices published patent applications for software instead of shielding speculative 'inventions' behind a system originally designed to protect physical artifacts.
This current patent issue has the nasty smell of institutionalised cyber squatting and someone as big as MS could easily buy the patent and use it to screw everyone else.
Time for change.
It's not speed that's the issue, it's distance.
And if you see the cameras in time or just generally check your speed, drive carefully and stay within the law you'll still end up with some pig-ignorant car driver, police officer or not, right up your arse and perhaps even staring at their speedo too.
So all you boys in blue who think it's clever to measure speed by following so closely beware....
I'm going to be fitting a camera to my vehicles soon - I've called it the insurance spy but actually the information may be used to prosecute idiots...
You have been warned.
