The Guardian's Complicated Relationship With Julian Assange 237
Sonny Yatsen writes "Vanity Fair has published an interesting behind-the-scenes look at the unlikely and tumultuous working relationship between WikiLeaks' Julian Assange and The Guardian as the Iraq War Logs were being published. The piece highlights the differences and conflicts between the Guardian's journalistic standards and WikiLeaks' transparency. Particularly interesting is the revelation that Julian Assange threatened to sue The Guardian if they publish a portion of Iraq War Logs leaked to them by a disgruntled WikiLeaks volunteer, claiming 'he owned the information and had a financial interest in how and when it was released.'"

I remember them saying this morning on Breakfast that they'll be returning to the studio and talking when the commercials are on.

I've seen an advert here in Glasgow. Oddly it was in a place where it wouldn't get much viewership.

I know that, but if you read my post I said that you'd have to buy an adapter or charger. Either way you'd still end up paying money.
However I suppose if you brought a laptop (it's certainly the sort of thing I'd take to America) then you could charge using USB.

Now I can take my UK charger to America and still have to but a new adapter/charger!

I read TFA over a few times and I'm not so sure what this is or how it works. It seems to be some sort of email/twitter/facebook aggregator. Have I understood this correctly?

We should not get rid of E-mail so much as improve it. E-mail could be easily improved by adding ideas such as threading which would quite easily overcome the complicated mess that is quoting.

So I've looked at the Wine appdb entry for Aion and it says that it won't work because of GameGuard due to GameGuard requiring the Windows kernel. Hopefully I should be able to run it on Linux now :D

Not my fault that I was about eight when I wanted one and got told I couldn't have one! :( I do plan on getting myself one off ebay at some point, though. It seems like there was a whole set of games I missed, judging by the comments here.
