If you want to hear a good English dub check out AnimEigo's dub's of You're Under Arrest OVA or Oh My Goddess OVA. They are both crazy good. AnimEigo lost the distribution license so you'd have to hunt a little for an old copy, but it's worth it.
Edit: looks like I'm mistaken about the You're Under Arrest distribution license [1]
Just filled out the Trans Union site with dummy data to check, and none of the transaction is over SSL. So, to kind out if my child's identity has been stolen I have to expose them to identity theft....
"if you aren't able to meet a certain reasonable minimum standard of living, you will be absolutely miserable."
For some people their minimum standard of living dose not require money. Buddhist monks[1] come to mind. There are also people that simply want to live away from society and thus have no real need for money.
I'm not sure that's true. Auto manufactures are a really big target for liability in accidents (I'd likely get more from GM then an individual in a won law suit), and a quick search [1] seems to back my feeling that there is sizable law and case law that define this area of liability. I'm not saying that it's simple to win against any sufficiently funded entity, but it's not impossible that anyone has immunity.
Looks like NameJet is based in Washington state based on their About Us page. So give what happened and the low value involved, I'd suggest two things (I'm not a lawyer, and this is not legal advice) look at contacting Washington State's consumer protection board[1] and the Better Business Bureau [2] for the state. They might not take up the issue, but this does seem like something that would likely violate some state bases consumer protection law.
Would there be anything to prevent someone from creating a one off file format that requires a license fee and just start making FOIA requests in that format. If not, this seems like something that could be exploited for profit.
Very good point. There is an NIH study [1] that drills into Law Enforcement Officers (LOEs). The number in the NIH study can be contrasted with the right side of slide 14. The mortality rate does raise a but from the Government rate, from 2/100k to 5.6 when you are talking homicide and 11.8 when considering all causes of fatalities; still puts it 3rd compared to other industries.
Not really, no. It's just not that dangerous. We imagine it must be dangerous, and so do cops themselves. But you're a lot more likely to be killed as a garbage collector or airline pilot, or a construction worker, or plenty of other jobs.
Adding a bit of objective support to that statement is a report [1] from BLS that lists Mortality Rates by industry, where law enforcement is grouped with Government.
It wouldn't be that much more different then paper medical records. Sure it would enable some interesting attack vectors, but I don't see that to be a compelling reason to not do it. It also wouldn't have to be a mandatory thing. People that are comfortable with it can use it, and those that aren't don't have to. Much like banks, there were (are) lots of people that don't trust back and choose not to use them. The same would be true for something like this.
I'd like for that database to be something that I control. This is, something that I carry with with me, like a usb stick; and that I have the software/tools to view it. Then I could actually take read though any notes and maybe take a more active role in my health.
>>> So Facebook knows I like Bob's Burgers but not The Family Guy.
I see how they would know that you like Bob's Burgers, but how would they know that you dislike The Family Guy? Or, were you saying that they know you haven't declared you like Family Guy at this point in time? I ask is cause I was missing a way they could track the former, and also because I think Facebook is missing the boat by not having a way to dislike something.
If I were looking to by Brand A and saw a lot of my negative sentiment for that brand Brand B would need less positive sentiment for me to be sawed to it. In that scenario they start to displace services like Yelp.
I'd imagine a banner at the top of Facebook for eveyone geoloc in US say to vote for reps that don't support an unchecked US intel would get noticed by everyone on the hill.
I agree, but I also understand why it happens. For a lot of people the only thing better then money is more money. That you paid a value for a product doesn't mean they don't want to make more money from that sale.
Sounds like a great way to verify an email address to me. Send an email with a tracking image and if you get a hit, presuming they pre-fetch, you know it's a valid email.
From my understanding most if not all federal agencies had to weigh the Anti-Deficiency Act with there decision. There is also what qualifies as essential vs. non-essential and how contracts that support those services are structured with a dash of Solicitor and management interpretation of those things. And all that had to be done for all IT, not just web sites, in a given Department in about a week. So, my guess is everyone did a mad-dash-scramble do something they couldn't believe would happen.
