The Valeyard IS a specific version of The Doctor.
I thought they'd said that John Hurt was the Valeyard - who is the penultimate renicarnation of the Doctor.
We've had female timelords before in earlier Dr Who storylines.
Why all the sudden need to change the sex of the lead character - why not just do a spinoff. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should do it.
A nice self-contained mini-series expanding the storylines for Romana (who stays female), or The Corsair (who changes sex).
Or waving a can of Tennents Export Lager in one hand.
And how did you obtain the encryption keys? Online transfer?
Think about this - if you're using end-to-end encryption, VPN, etc - then this will be seen within the traffic they are monitoring and throw up a flag.
If you're going via a foreign VPN then that puts you outside domestic monitoring and so open to foreign powers aswell as your own governments enhanced snooping.
Disney World resides in its own Disney controlled district (Reedy Creek Improvement District) which provides all the main services (fire, utilities, roads, etc) but not police who are from Orange County & Florida Highway Patrol.
Well they can try and use the same username & password on other forums.
They can try and use the same password on your email address.
If they get into your email, then they can request password resets for online banking, paypal, etc.
This is why you don't use the same passwords on different systems.
If you have your own domain, then use different email addresses for each site filtering into a central inbox. This also makes it easier to track where spammers get your address from.
He only claimed problems with the combined MMR vaccine - single vaccines were and are still available and didn't cause problems.
So you could refuse the MMR and get single Measles, Mumps & Rubella vaccinations - more injections, more cost but still providing protection. Its the idiots who didn't get any alternative vaccination after refusing the MMR that are the idiots.
He's still a complete dick for not getting his research reviewed and duplicated and self-promoting himself as the leader of a movement. A leader who just so happened to have links to a company making the single vaccines he wanted people to go to rather than the combined shots.
Parrots are intelligent enough to watch what you do and copy your actions to duplicate the effect.
You cannot leave keys near my parrot as he will get hold of them and try the keys in the padlocks on his cage until he unlocks them. He knows this as he's seen me do it.
A group of private individuals could do the same - and who is to say they don't already?
Companies already use plate tracking for permitting cars into their parking lots - nothing to stop them pointing them at the street outside and recording the movements of vehicles outside their sites.
Also, any nation can choose to route its internal comms through an external 3rd party country who does all the snooping and then returns the snooped info to the nation state.
eg. France routes all its internal comms via Belgium who snoops it and then passes the info back to France. Belgium routes all their internal comms through France who pass the snooped info to Belgium. Both countries aren't snooping on their own citizens and is only obtaining legally snooped info from a foreign state.
Most transatlantic cables are terminated in the UK.
If the ISP is actively monitoring the information carried and acting upon it, then surely they should lose their common carrier status and be liable for damages.
eg. Why only monitor & block copyright sites and not trojan/malware sites?
The main cause of lost knowledge is willful destruction.
Myan & Aztec knowledge - we have so little because the Spanish destroyed it.
Greek knowledge was destroyed by the Romans, who then realised their mistake and tried to save it.
A lot of the Greek knowledge moved east as the Romans expanded.
Actually very useful - were they wiped out by a disease caught from unwashed socks (as telephones weren't invented then)?
What good is a ticket to the good life, if you can't find the entrance?
