Shouldn't this be: "The ingredient list read: affected customers...".

It's also a potentially useful canary phrase. If it disappears then...

However, by now I'm sure any warrant/order would contain language that prevents them from removing it.

Just make sure you multiply your estimates by a factor of four...

Read up on the British Expeditionary Force...

It wasn't a perfect response, but it was pretty much what was possible to put together considering the state of the British armed forces at the time.

I've found the best speedtest solution is to choose a couple of the major fileshare sites (ie. the ones that ISPs love to throttle or block). I then upload a non-compressible junk file of about 100MB and try downloading it directly and via a VPN. I then compare those results to my ISP's speedtest.

I've seen some impressive throttling or within-ISP network congestion/lack of interconnects.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is in part a way of ensuring that all data breach notification law requirements are met by broadcasting the notification in such a way that no agency or person can claim to have not been aware (even if they claim they didn't receive notification directly).

Each different type of bayonet mount will be patented - eg. Nikon F mount, Pentax K mount, Canon EF mount. Apple patenting a set of specifications for a mount is a perfectly understandable concept - they're not trying to patent a completely generic mount...

I'll be truly interested when Ono-sendai start releasing their cyberspace series of decks.

I did Linux Mint and MS Office using Crossover as it meant that she could keep using the MS apps, but had a safer stable base to work from.

And - so my littlest sister couldn't keep installing her toolbar / chat app of the week on it - those caused more problems than anything else.

I'd prefer a Chalmers to a Cherry. Best damn model they ever put out.

"Note for Americans and other aliens: Milton Keynes is a new city approximately halfway between London and Birmingham. It was built to be modern, efficient, healthy, and, all in all, a pleasant place to live. Many Britons find this amusing." -- T. Pratchett and N. Gaiman, Good Omens

We used to go bowling there when I was little as it was the only place within an hour's drive with a bowling alley... I mostly remember parts being very empty and then almost never-ending lines of roundabouts (although at least they were in straight lines unlike Swindon)...

Yay! Haven't see this one posted for a long time ;->

Is a magical accident and the luck to leave the human race before death...

When dealing with certain pieces of equipment, the cost of service contracts often gets renegotiated after each expires and if the vendor doesn't want to support it anymore they just jack up the price of the contract to a non-viable level. So then you just wait until the machine stops working before you upgrade. We had this happen with a Leica confocal microscope - the contract expired, and then the proprietary board that connected the scope to the computer died. Since no more boards existed world-wide the scope was useless as a confocal and so was eventually repurposed as a standard epi-fluorescence scope.

His shit wasn't fucked up - it was retarded...

And that's fine because plenty of tards can live kick-ass lives!
