Sounds like a code review I sat in on years ago. We're talking to HQ, which doesn't like the way we wrote the code. Our lead engineer says 'So, the problem is, our code doesn't conform to a nonexistent spec.' Complete silence from HQ for about 20 seconds.

No, it's an agency that needs to have it's entire staff tried for treason as well as all the other crimes they've committed. They need to be held personally responsible.

Raj that sounds like the story of my job for the last 4 months, except they want it delivered today. And as Dilbert put it: "I can fail at any speed you like."
A staffer at left-wing Media Matters for America committed numerous felonies in the District of Columbia and around the country by carrying a firearm to defend the organization's founder, David Brock, The Daily Caller has learned.
According to a knowledgeable source, multiple firearms used to protect the Media Matters founder were purchased with Brock's blessing -- and apparently with the group's money.
Mr. Brock is a made, certified member of the nomenklatura. Nothing will come of this, just as nothing happened to David Gregory. You, dear reader, should not try this yourself.
TheDC has previously reported that Brock's one-time aide, Haydn Price-Morris, carried a concealed Glock handgun as he traveled with the liberal leader to public events in Washington, D.C.
But the extent of Brock's armed activities have been largely unknown until now, even among those closest to him. An array of current and former Media Matters sources, all with intimate knowledge about the inner workings of the organization, granted extensive interviews to TheDC.
Brock, whose struggles with mental health have seen him hospitalized in the past, became increasingly concerned by late 2010 that he was being targeted by right-wing assassins.
TheDC has learned that by that time, Brock had armed his assistant -- who had no permit to carry a concealed firearm -- with a Glock handgun.
Permits are for little people -- and especially, to be denied to little people...
According to an internal email exchange obtained by TheDC, the gun was purchased with cash in Maryland, likely to diminish the chances such a purchase would appear on the tax-exempt group's books.
If I were a Pub Senator I'd get this into the testimony on Diane Feinstein's bill. Members of the apparatchik class are buying illegal guns? Definitely want that in the Congressional Record...
Between Price-Morris' early 2009 arrival and late 2010 departure from Media Matters, he also acquired a shotgun for Brock's protection.
Unless it involves Iran and the six million Jews of Israel. That will be be unavoidably regrettable, should it come to pass.
[An Nahar] U.S. President Barack Obama The Cambridge police acted stupidly... on Sunday vowed to prevent genocide, as the world marked Holocaust Remembrance Day on the anniversary of the 1945 liberation of the Auschwitz concentration camp.
"We honor the memories of the six million Jews and millions of other innocent victims whose lives were tragically taken during the Holocaust over sixty years ago," Obama said in a statement.
But he said the anniversary is also a "time for action."
"We must commit ourselves to resisting hate and persecution in all its forms. The United States, along with the international community, resolves to stand in the way of any tyrant or dictator who commits crimes against humanity, and stay true to the principle of 'Never Again,'" Obama said.
"By remaining vigilant against those who seek to perpetrate violence and murder, we honor those we lost during one of the darkest periods in human history," he added. Then his lips fell off.

If you can't unlock it then you can't remove the pre-installed apps that transmit your location etc. to whoever your service provider allows access. If it's turned on, they know where you are.

To be fair, they're trying to enforce the contract under which you bought an expensive chunk of electronics for a small fraction of the retail price. I don't see that prison is appropriate unless you're making a business out of it, though. And the point of the article--that our laws are unjustly broad--is absolutely correct.

The US, Western Lefties didn't care to move to the Commie Bloc during the Cold War or even after - now that the USSR had self-imploded, they clearly feel the need to force the Free World to self-implode like the We-love-the-USSR-as-long-as we-don't-have-to-live-there USSR out of feel-good, equalist "fairness" regardless of the merits.
UNDER ANTI-US = ANTI-SOVEREIGN, "MULTI-POLAR" ETC. NAU, TRANS-NAU, + ULTIMATELY OWG
"GLOBALISM", THE PECKING ORDER FOR SCARCE $$$ WILL BE MUCH MUCH WORSE [+ lower] THAN UNDER THE CURRENT "NATIONALISM" + PRE-OWG, NAU "SOLE SOVEREIGNTY" ENTITY, as Any Each + All World Nations M-U-S-T "SHARE" RESOURCES FOR PURPOSES OF DEEP SPACE EXPLORATION + COLONIZATION.
Gott escape that wily dastardly intensive Earth, Planetary System-warming SUN that many GWCC Perts + Politicos claim is acting "normally"???
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
