I had great plans for this Thansmericangiving long weekend, doing some housing-keeping, both real and virtual, and all that good stuff. Alas, not to be, one of my web servers is being carpy.
Ohh well, you win some, you lose some.
Are you required to sign a speeding ticket? Well, no. However, by refusing to sign you are risking being placed under arrest over a traffic violation. Fair enough.
So, having watched this video several times, I am a little unclear what justified ANY use of force, or why negotiations failed within 20 seconds of the man walking out of his car — Note how quickly the officer took out his taser. The guy did not attempt to bolt, nor did he attempt to attack the officer. Somebody explain to me why the suspect was tasered, why the officer could not inform him what he was being charged with, why he was not given his rights.The officer is very clear that the suspect was tasered for not obeying his authoriti, nothing at all to do with the speeding ticket.So you tell me, did he deserve it? If so, why?
Well, in short, no.
It’s a nice idea, except that I haven’t actually seen anything useful I’d actually want to do on it once I hax0red it.
Give me a decent eBook reader, turn it into a USB drive, give me a decent Tasks list that synchronizes with Outlook. Heck, even better, give me a SyncML client to sync the PIM features against my server directly, and I’ll be all over it.
Until there is a practical reason to unlock it, why bother? Take this as a challenge, someone show me an app cool enough to add a ton of hassle to any future warranty claim.
