No. Next step is to send them home and bring in fresh batch.

And cash gets stolen by police using "civil forfeiture" laws - apparently having a lot of cash on you is good enough reason.

Yeah, right. You also risk getting warranty calls from 10 000 of your customers and bad reputation for years, because it turns out that your FTDI chips were either not as genuine as you thought or their drivers got a bit overzealous and bricked genuine FTDI chips too.

117 hostages died, nearly all of them because of gas poisoning: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/eur... . So, next time people start protesting, similar gas might be used to 'control' them. Doesn't it make you feel safer?

This is about Hungary. This kind of shit is actually being done there.

Easy, government will forbid increasing fees.

I think it is referring different cases - initial trial involving three patients while not successful at least showed that treatment is safe. New attempt on Mr. Fidyka went much better.

USA is on another damn continent - why the hell should they care? Russia was in league with Hitler and one of the aggressors since 17th of September 1939r, so why would the go against their "friends"? They turned against Germany only when Hitler decided that shared ownership of Europe is not good enough. There is very good reason to blame France and UK - since 01.09.1939 most of German army was tied down in Poland and only token forces were defending from west. France and UK had golden opportunity to crush Nazis quickly and with minimal losses. Well, they paid dearly for their cowardice in the end.

Provide drivers for new operating systems? Which ones? I somehow don't see any hw manufacturer committing to provide drivers for any weird linux distro in next 5 years. Unless you would want this law written so they only have to do it for new versions if Windows and possibly Mac OSX. That would be received well on Slashdot.

Any psychologist would have field day with Freud.

Of course it was. Worked great, didn't it?

Careful, you are contradicting PC axiom that men and women are equal in all things, including any psychological predispositions.
