Wow, I think we've actually agreed! The separatists are most certainly the ones responsible for the tragedy, but I was only arguing that the airline was not without at least some part of the blame.

The most likely theory is that the BUK was captured (or at least used) without the command vehicle. The separatists had little if any training on use of the system, so relied solely on the RADAR on the launcher itself. They were most likely not intending to hit a civilian plane.

You seem to forget that only TWO days prior to MH17 being shot, another high altitude plane was shot down by Ukrainian separatists. And evidence has been mounting for weeks before this that they had a BUK missile system. (I feel as if I'm repeating myself?!)

The airline are at fault for flying through a dangerous area. If you require an analogy for it to finally get into your skull, try this: it WOULD be your fault if you decided to take a stroll through the middle of a warzone and were killed by a stray bullet.

But ultimately it is the airline who is in charge of the live of nearly 300 people, and therefore, they *too* are at fault. They are not the only ones, and you'll probably find the whole process of defining what is "safe" airspace is going to change, but the final decision of where the plane flies is down to each…

"As I said, BA and Qantas have been managing to avoid Eastern Ukraine even before th crash." (did you even read what I wrote?!)

As I said, BA and Qantas have been managing to avoid Eastern Ukraine even before th crash. And now all the airlines need to work out a way to avoid the zone. Do we really need to let 298 people die before we decide to spend a little extra?

Warnings were particularly strong last Monday, after separatists shot down Ukrainian high-altitude cargo plane, and there had already been a fair bit to suggest separatists had access to longer range BUK missiles even before that.

Whilst it was cleared as safe by the authorities, private security firms were warning that there was a high risk of such an accident. It was pretty common knowledge that Ukrainian separatists had BUK missiles that have a range of 77,000 feet, and they had only just shot down a cargo plane flying at a similar altitude…

Just a small note: Malaysian Airlines are also perhaps guilty of criminal negligence, and therefore also at fault for the deaths of the 298, ignoring repeated warnings by security experts to avoid East Ukrainian airspace. Admittedly, they weren't the only ones to ignore it: the vast majority of airlines continued this…

Despite the advice, covering the tick in toothpaste for 10-15min before pulling it out makes it way easier.

Ermmmm, wrong thread?

So what exactly does this do that Google Calendar can't?

Somewhat off-topic, but why do all embedded Youtube videos on Lifehacker/Gizmodo start halfway through??? Or is that just me?

LinkedIn profiles are designed to be public; all this does is give you the abilities that a paying LinkedIn member has.

Either that, or set your privacy settings so people cannot see that you have viewed their profile.

Whilst I am very grateful to you for telling me this, WHY DIDN'T I FIND THIS OUT 3 DAYS AGO!!!!! Thanks anyway, I'm certainly going to bookmark your comment for next time.

Also Windows 8 and 8.1 use different activation keys, so you wouldn't be able to activate it if you jumped straight to 8.1 if you only purchased 8. It's a little ridiculous given 8.1 is a free update, but whatever. Took me about an hour to reinstall windows over the weekend which wasn't actually bad.
