The one thing that helps to keep the old model around is there are lots of people that rather have a physical copy then read it online. I still run into people who print all of their emails.

In-flight fight for stubborn iPhone-loving teen

@prison

"Are they serious? A jail sentence? Honestly, the US is just a mad country.

Don't tell me, if he does get a custodial sentence it will only be 25 years -- 'so you can think on what you did to that young dude.'

Honestly. And they call themselves civilised!

"

Explain to me how he could get 25 years when the max he can get is six months in jail and $1000 fine. Who is to say the prosecutor will follow through.

"It's possible to make your own thing in a different way with copyright. You just have to do the work yourself.

@P Henry

"How can putting someone's private information in the hands of complete strangers not pose a potential risk of fraud?"

Simple. The banks is not going to pay if you get screwed over . So no risk to the bank of fraud. Oh you mean how is there no risk to the people . Simple people don't count.

I'm surprised they didn't fake the test, um skew, um optimized the test. But when I she stuff like this I thing of Corporate welfare . This seems like using a bullet to shot another bullet.

Christmas shoppers hit by BT fire

last mile

I don't know how it is in the UK but here in the US one of the problems you have with trying to get redundancy from different providers is pipe sharing . So the Cable companies will trench with the phone company. Snap that pipe and the cable and phone company lose signal. Same thing with other data providers . You can have sprint exchange on one side of town and ATT on the other side. If you get ATT and Sprint running to your building at some point they will share the same pipe. I saw this with MCI and ATT. MCI had exchange, and this exchange was used as a peering site for ATT. Three miles down the road they were sharing the same pipe. At the last mile it looks liked it was coming from different areas .

Assange lawyers fume over leaked rape case docs

Re: Just Desserts

Lets do what the US did about the original leaker of the diplomatic cables; find the perpetrator and charge them with whatever crime it is to disclose this info. (Oh, wait, it isn't any kind of crime. Job done).\

So the fact that the guy who leaked them is in jail means nothing. Read up on American law. Disclosing top secret documents is a crime. But I suppose you are going to tell me leaking classified documents is not illegal in your country so no crime was committed even though it was an American citizen that violated American law .

Nokia sues Apple in European courts

@The Motive is not Money

That would make sense if Nokia sued first , but they didn't. Apple Sued first and now Nokia is going to screw with Apple.

up next

Apple sues Motorla and Texas Instruments , who then proceeded to mop the floor with apple over DSP and radio patents. Sounds absurd ? What do you think suing Nokia sounds like ?

Google Maps for Droid phones becomes a LOT better

@Gene Cash

I have a driod and i Google maps shows up in the downloaded section for me. Now this is whats weird. I've found that auto updates takes as much as week to happen. What I mean is that if a new version of an app comes out to day it can be as much as a week for the program to auto update.

It is usually a more serious offense than careless driving, improper driving, or driving without due care and attention and is often punishable by fines, imprisonment, and/or driver's license suspension or revocation.

EU telecoms to Apple, Google: 'Pay up!"

Censoring

Well who needs mindless polticians to censoring the net. Looks like the telecoms are doing that them selfs. First they put quotas and caps on the end users , now looks like they want to do it to the conten providers. If I was Google I would create a special landing page for these ISPs customers . When ever one of their customers goes to Google they would get this message. Sorry this web site is considered premium content by your ISP. and you need to pay extra to view it. Please choose a form of payment to continue . The following ISP do not charge for this content . Then have Apple do the same.

Microsoft 'Xbox TV' rumours: Over the Cable Guy's dead body

Why

Apple's world is built on UNIX technology and you can't retrofit content-provider-compatible DRM without rewriting the kernel and other bits.

Explain to me why ? The reason why Apple does not do blu ray is because it does not want to pay fees .

Lets see, and exploding object next to the head and you don't see a reason to a cat scan ?

"oh yeah it was the $3500+ bill to his medicare provider that was the reason (burn both suckers and pocket the profit)"

Um he has no insurance which means he is going to pat out of pocket. That means they are less likely to get paid.

Oh and show proof that one cat scan is equal to 10-20 years of x-ray radiation and were some has gotten brain cancer from a CAT scan.

Selling Apples to Japan: Complicated as a Nipponese typewriter

proper UK keyboard

Why make a UK keyboard?

I can see the mentality now . Why spend money making 2 types of keyboards used for English speakers.

Lord Jobs use an American style keyboard, you need to emulate him .

Or it could be they just don't give damn about the UK mac users. The theory being what , they are not going back to a PC.

Does your wife know about your um well perverted desires .

Judge: case dismissed .

You folks are just jealous that G.W. Bush had the balls to stand up and defend democracy. Some thing you spineless Euro trash leaders didn't have the balls to do. We alone defeated communism and eliminated racism . We also invented the internet and sex .

US cable giant Comcast accused of internet video 'toll booth'

Wait

Wasn't the point of high speed Internet so that we could watch movies ?? It's 2 things. Either comcast can't handle the traffic or they don't want competition.

L3

The only people that own as much copper as them is ATT. If L3 were to cut comcast off, about half of US hosted sites would stop working. Guess who Amazom.com uses .

How to kill your computer

TSA

I was thinking let a TSA person look at your laptop. My favorite is an idiot that set his laptop on a hot burner.

I had a coworker tell me about an user that put his laptop in the oven, forgot about it and turned the oven. I called bullshit on that one. Then one day I saw on the news how an idiot burned his house down by forgetting that he put fire works in the oven to hid the from the kids .

Fake student hacker avoids jail over ID theft scam

@Dave Gregory

You know I thought it was obvious who that comment was aimed at. Unless every one in your country thinks this way .

"In America he would spend 3 months in jail just waiting for a trial."

But since only one person said some thing that silly I thought it was obvious that comment was not towards every that posted .

@Disgraceful Court System

Is there maximum wait time for trial in the UK ? Or can they put the trial off indefinitely.
