Let's not forget he offered to go to Sweden for a second interview if the Swedish PM gave him his personal assurance that he wouldn't be transferred to the USA.
(The PM naturally refused...he knew his job would be on the line)
There's people in Gitmo for wearing the wrong sort of watch:

(clue: It's one of the most common watches in the world.)
And not just one person...there's a whole list!

Team America, fuck yeah!
I think there is a perfectly satisfactory answer in two parts:
1. It is very unusual to do so, especially in light of #2.
2. They expect to charge him, which means taking him into custody for trial.
How come they didn't do that when, you know, they had him in the interview room in Sweden (voluntarily). Why did they release him with no charge?
Maybe all this only started a few weeks later when somebody was fishing in the police computers looking for "Julian Assange"? Luckily for him he wasn't still in Sweden or he'd be in Gitmo by now.
Let me float something by you. And the reasons why I feel most these allegations are a joke. Seemly _two_ women at the same time reported this crime.
No they didn't.
One of them went to the police station to ask if it was possible to force Julian to take an AIDS test. Nobody was accusing anybody of anything at that point.
The police were the ones who started all the 'investigating' and found the second girl. They interviewed her and found she had a similar experience. Result: Julian was interviewed to get his side of the story, then sent home with no charges.
A few weeks later somebody higher-up found "Julian Assange" when they were fishing in the police computer and figured they could maybe use this as an excuse to grab him and take him to the USA. The press were told he was a "serial rapist". The rest is history.
And let's not forget that she tweeted her friends next day to come and meet her cool new boyfriend.
She was clearly traumatized, right?
(Or maybe was it the police that made that 'trauma' decision for her - I mean she must be traumatized after that, right? She's such a sweet/innocent little CIA agent after all...)
consent given to lies isn't consent
Yup. That pretty much covers every casual sexual encounter in the whole of history.
You have no idea how extradition works, if you are extradited to one country, and that country tries to extradite you to another, the first country is required to have an additional extradition hearing unless that move was an established pre-condition.
The Swedish wouldn't be "extraditing" him to the USA, they'd be "lending" him as part of the ongoing investigations into Wikileaks.

What are the chances of the USA ever giving him back after Sweden drops its charges? Slim/none.
What would the UK be willing/able to do about it? Probably nothing. Nobody's job is on the line (they're all following the law) so, hey, bad luck Julian.
This interview in London is just ass-covering by Sweden to keep the case alive. Don't expect anything to come of it.
And struggling to maintain an outdated system in some kind of virtual environment isn't too risky?
Who said anything about upgrades/maintenance? Maybe he has to build it once, certify it once, deploy once on an embedded system.
If the job requirement says "25 years" then that's what he has to do. It wouldn't even be an unusual specification for military.
So, it actually was UNIX.
IRIX, I think you'll find.
"UNIX" is a trade mark.
Is there no way they could have used this movie to start people getting used to the facts? People debating feathers afterwards? Doing some research?
How about a scene with a nerdy scientist arguing they should have feathers because that's real then some pointy-haired-bosses putting him down in the name of 'profit'? They could end with a big feathered dinosaur eating the boss and the scientist grinning.... "truth always wins!"
PS: Yes, I know there's plugins which disable version-checking of the other plugins but quite often the real plugins are truly broken and don't work.
I'd be happy if they just stopped breaking all the add-ons with every single release.
I mean why do they even bother with (eg.) "appearance" plugins if they break them every week and you have to go back to the default.
They should just remove support for them and be done with it. Save everybody's time.
The fundamental problem is the whole concept of a "Web of Trust." How or why should I trust that a collision detection mechanism is in place, functioning properly, and has not been manually overridden? We've come full-circle to "I just have to blindly trust."
True, but lets get everybody used to using https and get it enabled on all the servers.
Once that's done, THEN we can tackle the problem of who to trust with the certificates.
"The longest journey starts with a single step", etc.
I just checked Windows update and my "update" is still there...
I don't have a problem with FTDI technology itself, the problem is with the hardware clones.
But FTDI could have taken a different route and instead show an annoying pop-up or only allow 300bps on counterfeit chips.
As an eBay buyer, how am I supposed to know what I'm going to receive?
We are not a clone.
