FTC chairwoman Edith Ramirez said, "It's wrong for a company like T-Mobile to profit from scams against its customers when there were clear warning signs the charges it was imposing were fraudulent. It's wrong for a company like T-Mobile to profit from scams against its customers when there were clear warning signs the charges it was imposing were fraudulent."
T-Mobile replied "It's wrong for the FCC to call us fraudulent, twice."
I read it the same way. A well placed comma would go a long way...
Or a properly placed quotation:
The group behind the operation, called "Dragonfly" by Symantec
I predict a number of congressmen will soon get caught attempting to give handies in airport bathrooms...
* You know who you are
You mean someone knows who they are.
Bitcoins will be transferred to winning bidders in the order that each winning bid was received. No bitcoin transfer will be made until the USMS has confirmed receipt of all purchase funds. The winning bidder(s) will be given private instructions related to the transferring of the bitcoins.
You'll note it doesn't provide a deadline for when the bitcoins will be transferred to the winning bidder. Hence, if it takes 60 days to transfer, BTC could be worth 1/10th of its current value.
Would not touch this US Marshall's mess with a 10 foot fuckstick.
I created a chat bot that emulates a 65-year-old grocery store clerk who speaks perfect English. Here is a sample transcript:
Tester: Hello, and welcome to the Turing test!
Bot: Hey, gimme one sec. I gotta pee really bad. BRB.

"This of course implies that they have no backup system — or at least that the backup are not held for long."
It implies nothing other than the NSA continues to lie whenever an order to turnover data is presented.
Verizon isn't limited to FiOS. The vast majority of their ISP services for customers is over DSL.
And the fact that they call that "broadband" is reprehensible. Verizon DSL is awful and never meets the speeds the customer pays for.
"Hello Edward, I am a Russian diplomat, come to Moscow and we won't extradite you to the Americans"
"Hello Edward, I am a Russian spy, come to Moscow and we won't extradite you to the Americans"
I can't imagine Snowden was under any illusions about the job title of the "diplomats" he was talking to, so it wasn't much of a trick. It might not have been a particularly good long term deal, but there wasn't a whole lot else on the table.
It seemed pretty clear in reading Greenwald's book that Snowden had no illusions about anything he did or the consequences. He never attempted conceal his activities or obscure his own person. He knew that due to US policies he would be charged with treason and found guilty. His only hope was that he could avoid extradition and not spend the rest of his life in a 10x10 wet hole in gitmo. Whatever rumors swirl around him mean nothing so long as he can stay out of prison until America changes his policies, or he can get on a rocket to Mars. The latter is probably more likely to happen sooner than the former.
whistle the correct codes to launch nuclear missiles at Mayor Bloomberg."
You do know that Mr. Bloomberg doesn't get to keep the title forever, right?
But he "thinks" he does. Eight years wasn't a legit reign. Another four was not nearly enough. No doubt there's some hidden clause that lets him invoke the title for eternity.
OK, so "there has been no significant correlation between successful strikes and a reduction in al-Qaeda attacks".
Am I the only one thinking things might have been much worse if no terrorist leaders had been taken out at all?
There's only one way to handle this. The US is a bunch of pansies with girlie underpants.
Drone Strike every leader, and at the same time hit every second-in-command
You will miss a few leaders so now you must drop heavy artillery all over their compounds
You will have missed a few followers so now you must drop nuclear weapons all over their towns
You will have missed a few sympathizers so now you invade the country and kill everyone using your might at land and sea.
Anyone who lives should be put in prison.
Victory!
they're just suing since despite tying their game to their servers they still haven't figured out the shit enough to not transmit troop positions or map pieces to the client the client shouldn't know about - and they pretend to be serious about competitive online play.
You're right. I don't see what the problem is. However, because someone makes a profit off of the company's failure that's where the loophole is, as far as the civil courts are concerned. Alternatively, if you create a cheat based on data packets sent to the client, even in this piss-poor environment of protect-the-corporation-first, you'd still probably get away with it, although you'd likely spend a miserable few years back and forth in court.
Kleeneness is next to Godelness.
