It is not the company's data. It is the users' data.

This is a Federal prison that holds this kind of prisoner. It holds prisoners in solitary confinement. Solitary confinement is torture and is a human rights violation.

If you believe in the rule of law you would want the potential war crimes investigated long before you would imprison the journalist that exposed them.

Hasn't the defense also established Assange's mental health issues? Isn't some of the evidence that has been suppressed related to that?

Not really. It is perfectly compatible that (1) the UK has an extradition treaty with the US that requires that the US respects human rights for extraditions to actually happen, (2) the US does not respect human rights of prisoners, (3) therefore the UK never actually extradites anyone until 2 changes.

Yes. Sweden and Germany do it.

Actually Norwegian parental leave is not that generous by the standards of similar countries. There is one year total of leave shared between mother and father (or other mother).

Because that's what most fathers do...

Also they just finished their pappaperm which they said was 133 days over the summer and that means their child likely started in nursery in August or September as is the child's legal entitlement if they were born before August last year or in September last year...

I get that you did something different but the OP's case really does sound like they did what most Norwegian fathers do... (I'm not knocking it because that time was truly special for me.)

1. The two weeks at birth aren't legally full pay (most employers pay you anyway).

2. Yes if the mother doesn't qualify the father doesn't qualify. I think that there has been a court case that found that this is not legal. But the law has not yet been updated.

The OP won't have seen much of their child's first 3 months either. Their time with their child probably started when the child was 8 months old and lasted until the child was about 12 months old...

This is at the beginning equivalent to the two weeks omsorgspermisjon you should have got after the birth (but which legally doesn't have to be paid).

I'm confused. Drivers are kernel level right? All the distros use the same underlying kernel code (plus patches and binary blobs). But basically if a driver works for RHEL it will work for Ubuntu. Even better once the driver is mainlined in the kernel it will be supported going forward.

The problem for hardware manufacturers is that they think their drivers are valuable trade secrets and don't want to mainline them into the kernel...
