Nokia can probably be had for relative peanuts now that their trojan Elop has done his best to [strike]wreck[/strike] stabilize the company, and that will also give them access to all the cross licensing agreements that are present in the telecoms market. As a bonus, I don't think Nokia have got into many lawsuits...
Actually giving the apology probably means the government has effectively admitted that it is liable for any damages Kim Dotcom tries to claim
Prosecution and defense probably want a new trial on different issues. The defense probably want a new trial for the one issue where he was found guilty, the prosecution for all the charges where a verdict was not reached
The actual insurance is not a huge profit maker, but the money from insurance premiums is invested.
I'm not arguing for repeatedly breaking the window as mentioned in another comment, merely enough natural disasters to ensure more manual construction jobs, especially as many sectors which require large amounts of labour (eg. agriculture) are becoming increasingly automated.
Pumpkin display is still at an early stage of development.
You obviously need to wait until Apple gets into the game and releases an iPumpkin with a Retina display and a touchPumpkin interface (patented of course). Of course, iPumpkins will only be available at Apple stores and may be limited to one per customer.
Maybe this guy could tell you.
Actually because of political infighting, new judges have not been appointed and existing judges are horribly overworked, leading to mistakes and delayed justice.
Also, from a UK/EU standpoint, sentences are much harsher than are traditionally applied here. I grant that the US population is free to do what it likes in terms of its sentencing policy, but that policy makes it a hard sell over the pond.
The solution to this would be simple, and that would be for McKinnon to stand trial in the US but be subject to UK sentencing levels for his alleged offences if found guilty. I believe its already a policy for prisoners to spend their sentences in jails of their home country, so a little diplomacy about the general issue could bring about a system where justice and public opinion is served.
is not that Gary McKinnon is not going to be extradited, but that judges will have some discretion to decide whether an accused person should be tried in the UK instead of extraditing that person abroad.
FTL, cold fusion, time travel, snu-snu with green women from an exotic planet.
I'll volunteer for the snu-snu research program.
Keep NIF funded and also plough money into seeing if other avenues to Nuclear Fusion are viable. Also invest in nuclear reactors in the mean time, possibly looking at the thorium fuel cycle as a method of doing it relatively cleanly.
The happy clappy brigade putting up millions of wind farms are never likely to generate the volume of energy we require.
This is the largest, most complicated laser in history, give it a chance!
If sharks were involved, I'm sure there would be no difficulty in obtaining funding...
Of course practically speaking your own facebook page is no less public than a support page for the victims, so that area is a bit more grey than my first statement suggests.
Well not exactly. Your personal Facebook page/wall is your own diary and you permit friends to view it. You have a legitimate expectation that friends accept your twisted sense of humor, and will not be offended by same. A Victim Support page is an entirely different matter.
what happened to the whole friend exclusivity thing, Which friend did he offend and does it really matter?
Apparently he posted it on a April support group, not in his circle of friends.
Why are we being directed to some sort of site that requires mobile phone number entry
Could some Slashdot guy download the ruling and host it locally on Slashdot ? Judicial rulings are public domain so there's no copyright issues.
Should be removed for shipping.
