The war wasn't over when the preparations for Germany's new secret service began. The material collected about the Soviets survived the end of the war because it was hidden (on microfilm) in sealed canisters buried in the German A

But when you do, please leave the earphones at home. And don't jump in a random direction like a deer when you hear someone behind you with squealing brakes. Us MTB'ers will appreciate it.

Every German police officer is armed when on duty. Attitudes are different, and the judicial investigation after the use of a weapon is anything but pleasant.

Yes, this little issue is why Germany will risk the US as an export market. Just to piss off Obama, because das Merkel is sad the constitutional court prevented her party from implementing very similar measures first. Please be a little rea

IMO that would be a too strong a response for a country that heavily depends on export.

So, you think Germany would pretend to be pissed off enough make moves against the US, instead of making their usual hollow threats that go nowhere?

You are operating under the assumption that our politicians didn't know about this before. There's a really really low chance this is true. It's much more plausible that everyone has been spying on everyone else and countries

Maybe, but that is an industry-wide phenomenon. Kim is just stretching the limits while other companies keep a lower profile extracting money from the users illegal storage and bandwidth needs.

He is playing the "Megaupload is a legit service with legit users" card. And that may be true for some percentage of his paying customers. Fighting for his customers data makes him look good and the DOJ/Leaseweb look bad. Wha

11 years is a long long time, OTOH this is pretty far from a joke gone wrong if the even half of the press release is true.

So do I actually read this right... Your companies piss-poor coding practices expose things to the world you don't want to have exposed, and instead of fixing your crappy code you file bogus DMCA requests?

It's a relatively sophisticated static analyser. Nothing new, but quite useful. Open source projects can register and get reports for free, commercial companies have to pay. Coverity uses eg. Linux to test and compare their product against,

Since they have a fan, they don't have to care about hot air rising. It's often enough to get the hot pockets out of the fins and average out the temperature within the case. The case itself can transfer heat to the outside via its larger s

Also note that public figures have fewer rights to their own image than Joe J. Random. It's fine to target a politician at a demonstration, etc. If there is public interest in a specific person, pictures of that person can be published (wit

Laws are not rules written in a programming language. Exploiting logic errors and corner cases does not work the same way. Don't make this mistake. Whether a court will let your clever workaround pass or not is up to them. If what you do is

It has been more a lack of time and interest than anything else. KDE4 was added just past this release, and will be in 5.4 (unless another meteorite hits the wrong part of Russia).

Where to start. Multiple pins supplying power to a die isn't done because they can't clonk a pair of big connectors in the middle. The resistance within the die would cause different ground levels and voltage drops if supplied at only one p

Upgrading OpenBSD is as transparent as it gets. Put a new kernel in place, extract the install sets, run sysmerge to update /etc and X configuration and you're done. The FAQ has a very cautious explanation of the whole process, pointing out

Indeed, happened to my very privacy sensitive colleague while setting up his new S3 (he had no prior G+ account, so he got a new one). This may depend on what type of account you have and what terms you have agreed to.

That was only a rough number, more like a reasonable (upper) limit. As you probably know prices vary depending on volume, energy "source", supplier etc.

Why does Windows render(?) glyphs in the kernel? What's the technical justification for doing something this complex and error-prone in kernel space? Btw, this attachment seems to contain the real meat (STACK TEXT): https://bugs.freedeskto
