FTA: the diaries "remain in copyright until the end of 2015. Copies are in public libraries." Just wait a year and then there REALLY won't be an issue. There isn't a clause in the legal code about whether or not a horrible human being can or can't get a copyright, so until there's a court decision (which seems like flirting with what can and can't be said... Which seems like free speech) this case seems extra baseless. The comment that this has implications on research seems misplaced to me. Am I missing something?

This sounds like an advertising stunt to drum up some publicity. I would not be in the least bit surprised if this is released early 2016 under the heading of "The book they tried to ban".

I didn't find this at all, and testing how it made my eyes feel was why I bought it.
I had been looking at getting the OR DK2 for a while, but what was putting me off is that I have pretty bad sight in my right eye. I don't watch 3D movies as they quickly makes my eyes ache, followed by a headache, and I didn't want to spend the money on the DK2 if it was going to be the same.
So, I ordered Cardboard, stuck my HTC One M8 in and was pretty impressed with what it could do, and the fact that I was actually seeing proper 3D without the eye pain. After a week of playing with it I ordered the DK2 and have had no problems with that either.
It probably will vary from person to person, depending on any eye problems that you have, but Cardboard is a pretty cheap way to test what results you can expect before you waste your money. And if don't mind spending some time setting it up it will even run Elite Dangerous :)

I went looking for it only last night and didn't see a thing!

This may have been me on /. a few years ago, but it was with StarForce rather then SecuRom.
PC started running like crap after installing X3, so I decided to backup my music, photos and game files onto DVD. Every one failed. After much searching I found a website with an answer - a StarForce remover. Used that and my DVD started working again. Also my PC started running normally again. I have never bought a game with this kind of intrusive DRM since. The only way to get the message across is stop giving these people money, or better still, sue the bastards. Stopping people from backing up their photos because you are paranoid about piracy is not acceptable.

Goths of the world rejoice!

A few years ago I swapped my credit card for a better interest rate on the balance, not really intending to use the card for purchases.

When I finally started using it for large purchases I decided to try out the the online banking, but as I had never used it before there was no password set up. I gave them a call and explained what I wanted to do and asked them to send me a password reset to get online with.

The reply: "Oh, we set that up for you when you opened the account. The password is set to your date of birth."

I was less than impressed.

This was Barclaycard in the UK, so If you have one of their cards and have never used the online banking I would go and change it right now (assuming they have not learnt anything about security in the meantime).

O2 (and also Be Internet) are now owned by Sky.

I, for one, welcome our heavily-armed transgender overlords.

I would advise against eating or drinking whilst reading this, at least if you value your keyboard. Also, possibly NSFW.

Spot on. My wife has worked in a hospital for about 12 years. A couple of years ago they switched the sanitiser to a cheaper brand to save some money. After about 2 weeks so many staff were unable to work due to dry/cracked/bleeding/infected hands that the hospital had to hire agency staff to cover shifts. The cost of this and unions getting involved had the old sanitiser brought back in shortly after. They haven't tried swapping brands since then.

Very true. In the UK you have to get immunisations for most of them, but you also build up an amazing immune system. Doing sewer surveys I never got ill in 5 years.

Come and live in Yorkshire. Everything is uphill both ways. In the snow.

The only time Opera has ever crashed for me is when there is a dodgy ad on a site. Blocking the ad fixes it straight away.

Sometime I wish mod points went up to 11.

+1. My kingdom for mod points.
