Not yet, no - the hearing was in relation to an extradition. They don't get to ask him to turn up at court for no reason. The reason is the EAW. If the EAW is invalid the result of the hearing should be "fuck off Sweden"

So if he hasn't been charged with anything in the UK, does that mean if the extradition request is rejected, he's free to go?

Yup. He's not accused of anything here.

It's not immediately obvious on what basis the judge has had him remanded in custody, under the circumstances. I'm sure legal keyboard warrior MaliA may be able to tell us.

Amazing how so many students talk about how they had an atari/nes/snes/megadrive/master system/meaga drive though isn't it.*

I remember back in the day (1995) how there would be 15 kids all gathered round the one playstation 1 belonging to the only kid we knew lucky enough to own one - much like those pictures you see of a room full of people all watching the queen's coronation. Speaking of TVs, you only got to play any console when parents were not about because unless you had trendy parents a house would only have one TV (and possibly a tiny black and white one in the kitchen and after half an hour squinting at sonic on that you would give up, or your mum would want to put her soaps on.)


*No, no you didn't, in fact I'm in my 30s and I'm just about old enough to have been randomly bashing buttons on a NES, first console I was old enough for was the master system 2 my gran won at bingo.

Post subject:  Re: The big wikileaks, er, leak!

True, but a lot of the youngsters would've had a hand-me-down console from an older sibling or uncle or similar. That's why I was still a speccy user until 1992.

Author:  Decca [ Mon Dec 13, 2010 8:57 ]
Post subject:  Re: The big wikileaks, er, leak!

ah but the oh god I feel old truth is someone born in 1992 would have been 8 years old when the playstation 2 came out and the big brother hand me down console for that generation was the N64. This is console gaming of course, I have no clue about the PC timeline.

Post subject:  Re: The big wikileaks, er, leak!

You assume that everyone always buys the latest console straight away. The Master System was still on sale well into the 90s. I reckon a few thrifty parents might have picked up a late model in *checks* 1996 (jiminny cricket, 1996!) for a younger kid. The first console I ever owned was an XBOX1. Mainly because my parents were poor (and tight).

Someone born in the early 90s could quite possibly have a dad who is into console games. My daughter was born in 1993. I don't think there's been a console released since then she hasn't had full access to, many of which I still have.

Late 80s, eh? Dad had a BBC Micro which I played on a lot, and then he got a CGA 286. My younger brother got a SNES at some point (must have been a while after it was released...), and then I got a second hand N64 which was solely used for Goldeneye. I think I still have it.

I had a speccy 48k, a +2 and a +3. From the very first of them we had a tv to go with it, which was in my room. So it may well have been mid eighties, rather than late eighties, I was born in 76 :)
Dad brought home a 12Mhz 286 from work, which was awesome!
Then I had a Megadrive, none of that Nintendo crap in my gaff :D

My cousin had a BBC, we used to play some sort of top down driving game for hours on end.

I begged my parents for a Speccy, as a mate had one and it looked better than the BBC. Then I asked for SAM Coupe after Cras got one (lucky escape) and then an Amiga. Still didn't get one. Still, it meant I spent more time on the PC and ultimately spent many a happy hour fiddling with autoexec.bat and config.sys to get Falcon 3 to work (needed 604k of basic RAM free, FFS).

I heard some comedian talking about this. He said something along the lines of "When I see some young kid walking down the street with a T-Shirt with SEGA on the front, I want to run up, grab him and shout 'I SUFFERED FOR YOU, YOU CUNT!'".

Which amused me.

Swap "90s" for "80s", and leave out "console", and that's just as true for me. My dad owned computers before I was even born. :hug: His interests in technology and games kept me in computers and consoles all my childrenhood, for which I was very fortunate and still grateful. My g.f. OTOH only had a hand-me-down Master System II and nothing else until she got her DS Lite. :( (No chance to play computer games in the '80s either, living in East Germany.)

A second year student would only be 7 years younger than me. Some of my earliest memories are of the spectrum and the brand new, dead exciting Amiga 500. I was still playing my A1200 until its demise in 1999.

It's not that unlikely at all for students to really remember consoles and ting. Having it be some of your earliest memories would make a pretty big impression.

Quote:
He ... and added enigmatically: "I am DANGER, ACHTUNG".


Poor research or simple misleading, there - that "I am [WORD], [WORD], and [WORD]" part is a vestige of a previously obligatory feature where users had to use three words to describe themselves. When it was dropped (presumably because most people found it tedious and put in any old gibberish), the text was dropped from the header and automatically copied into the body text of the profile. They didn't tell people this, so a lot of people still have it there, having presumably never noticed it.

Quote:
Among Mr Assange's listed interests were the "structure of reality" and "chopping up human brains" – although he added the caveat "(neuroscience background)" lest the latter put off potential admirers.


Oh please. If you were that easily put off, you would have left OKCupid after about an hour. Pretty much every profile on there is either ageingly dull ("I LYK POPULAR FILM #11, POPULAR BAND #223, INOFFENSIVE INTEREST #55b LOL") or is deliberately obscure and/or dark.

Quote:
Asked for the "most private thing" he was willing to admit, Mr Assange said he had "Asian teengirl stalkers".


Again, misleading - loads of people put silly gibberish in there. Mine is "I'm sleeping with your wife". Doesn't mean anything as this is obviously trying to make out.


Quote:

pfft, half the point of that site is the quizzes, most of which are rubbish about how much of a bummer or serial killer you "are", or WOULD I BONE U!!! quizzesesszesz.

In conclusion, the only story here is that, four years ago, he had a silly profile on a silly site where most people say silly things. Silly.
