Nothing. The hamster just misses the running wheel and tries to have some fun without it. Hamsters are made to run a few miles every night and sitting in a small cage without any way to do that borders on mistreating them.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

Oh! Well that's a different story.

None of those, it was this one.[^]
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Our lawyers have sent out a Cease and Desist on the release of that footage. It's meant for internal training purposes only, and any public broadcast can be considered a breach of NDA.
Our secret training methods must not be compromised.

Pin them to the taskbar instead. And order them to your preference.

One less click to use them, as well.

Yes, but my taskbar already runneth over...unless I choose to give up the vertical space, which I'd rather not do. I did find that my problem is related to AV (stars with K) and the suggested workaround is to restart explorer or reboot. ...or get rid of that AV!

You'd have the same from Linux users if there were more than a couple of dozen of you!

Plus, we windows-users have our witty repartee at the ready!
Could be because we are on the defense a lot, but I won't mention that here.

..it just does as its told, just as Windows - the question is, who owns the OS, and hence, the machine?

Having your bank account raided on the way to work[^]
I hadn't thought of that one...simple way to make significant amounts on most commuter trains, I'd have thought. 
And with the recent TalkTalk fun-and-games are we perhaps developing too fast? Maybe we want to stop, step back and design a total system that is secure, including internet identity and payment systems? Any thoughts?

I don't understand how magnetic stripe cards can be read by bumping into you. The magnetic strip needs to be swiped in contact with a reader. A millimeter or more from the reader, and the read will fail. Sorry, but I think people who claim that the magnetic stripe can be read from a distance, without swiping the card, are talking bs.
How do we preserve the wisdom men will need,
when their violent passions are spent?

What the thieves are making use of is the RFID/NFC contactless card technology [^] in many cards now issued by banks.
I only used this recently on my card when I was buying some razors - all you need to do is move your card near a reader and the money is instantly taken off your account with no acknowledgement needed on your part.
The security built into these cards is that there is usually a limit of around £30 per transaction(although I don't know how multiple transactions is short succession are prevented), as well as needing to be very close to the card reader - hence the ability to exploit this when commuting with lots of people in close proximity many of them having one of these cards.
It's the equivalent of pickpocketing without having to reach into your pocket.

Nope - these are the new cards the banks are issuing which look like the older stripe-on-the-back-and chip'n'pin-on-the-front cards, but adds a symbol (that looks like a WiFi strength rotated 90 degrees) in the top right corner. Once enabled, you can pay for goods by "tapping" the card reader instead of inserting the card and entering the pin number for payments up to £30. Similar to the way you "tap" an Oyster card in public transport in London - it's called "contactless payment".
In this case, they are "tapping" your wallet with a reader to do the same thing.
