That's why Slashdot is keen on posting all new studies at least twice, thus increasing the chances they are still available for future generations!

Manning didn't leak from the NSA. He leaked classified information from the Army. In fact in this same chat he points out that he has nothing to do with the wiretaps. I know it's hard, but let's keep our scandals straight.

Why would Assange wiretap the Icelandic parliament and how could he? I doubt he has that powerful connections up there.

The obviously more likely explanation is that some spy agency (like NSA or counterparts) did it, and it has been leaked to Wikileaks. Notice how he looks surprised upon finding it out, so that Manning feels like pointing out that he wasn't the one who leaked it "*had nothing to do with that one*". So neither knew how the records were obtained in the first place.

Now one wonders: who would be able and willing of doing such a thing and who would have an interest in pinning it to Assange?

First, depending on how automated it is, the webmaster might be ordered to keep updating it. So updating the metatag must be a deliberate action and forcing you to update it would be akin to forcing you to lie. Still not clear that they would not do it or try to, though.

Second, in a larger organization the person updating the tag does not need to know whether the data has been compromised or not.

Third, many companies shared data "on a voluntary basis". Whether this is really voluntary or under some thinly veiled threat, there is nothing guaranteeing they won't lie on their own accord.

In conclusion, there is absolutely no way to make "the cloud" safe via tehnical means.

Having the GPU integrated into the same chip as the CPU is not the same as emulating it.

I'm wondering how this is possible. As long as it's communications going through Google, Skype, or some other americal corp, it's pretty easy to just intercept whatever goes through their servers. Intercepting real landlines is a wholly different game. It needs on site infrastracture, cause I doubt they get routed through the US. This means there is someone inside France that should get their ass handed to them for this, before one even starts thinking of the guys at NSA.

From Wikipedia

So much for "we will win in the end".

If there is a meme that needs to die about Nokia is this absurd notion that Windows Phones are somehow not competing with the Android phones.

In the unlikely case this happens, may I respectfully suggest that you get a left party for a change?

seems like an honest mistake

the other side of the argument is: if it were clear that there was not a big discount with the season pass, the customer could decide not to buy it.

Just as a guideline X% up from X% down is a net decrease, as is in the other order (commutativity and all). Something many market analysts still fail to grasp.

Do you have any evidence whatsoever that the score is undeserved?

In this case being electric helped with not having to turn off the ignition to prevent fire, have more flexibility in the positioning of elements so that more protection is added for the passenger and having so low a center of mass that they had to design a special test in order to make the car rollover since it would not do it in the normal one. Also, using spaceworthy components helped, I guess...
