  1. The Laws of the game are easily found with Google. Example from the Law (re direct free kick): It's a refereeing decision as to whether the player was attempting to kick (or strike or trip). The referee can award an indirect free-kick even if there is no contact at all, but the (attempted) foul play only has to meet to "careless" test to mean a direct free kick. If the referee felt that the defender attempted to kick, strike or trip Durán, it's a direct free kick and therefore a penalty, but not a caution. The referee(s) have to decide the intent of the defender. What the fouled player does afterwards shouldn't come into consideration, neither does any injury sustained, unless the foul play was reckless or used excessive force.
  2. A foul is a foul is a foul, even if no contact at all is made. Attempting foul play is a foul. I don't understand how so many people who've watched football all their lives don't know this. Referees are crap, but when everyone thinks "but he got the ball" is a valid defence, what hope do they have? Read Law 12. If the ref/VAR felt that the defender attempted foul play, it's a foul. The amount of contact and "whether he could have stayed on his feet" is not relevant.
  3. Email is transmitted as is (unencrypted) until it enters the mil.uk MX space. SMTP (RFC822) is a "store and forward" protocol and shouldn't be used for anything mission critical. Unless you control all points of the delivery chain, it can never be guaranteed delivery. Copies of the email are potentially retained at all nodes in the chain and on backups of those nodes, which is why in modern infrastructure stateless SMTP relays are preferred. None of this matters for signing things. Are you referring to encryption rather than signing? If so then you can do that using confidential mode on Workspace / Gmail (and I think Outlook), regardless of the software or service used by the recipient. Content encryption doesn't provide privacy with email though as all the headers are retained (until it reaches a node that you control). You also have to trust whoever does the encryption, whether that is Google, Adobe, Microsoft, whoever., both to do the (de)crypt securely and manage the keys properly. Just to be on topic, it pisses me off that people think email is easy (not aimed at you blandy).
  4. I think in the UK now that the only place where it is still legally obliged to use wet ink is on land registrations. Which is weird, because their portal for doing this stuff online is reasonably good. I assume it's a quick of the legal profession that they've not addressed this yet. You'd think NDAs would warrant the highest level of authentication. You can't sue the "Mickey Mouse" who signed a bit of paper when they sell your IP / PII.
  5. PDF is an open format, is there something special about the PDFs from acrobat? The Google signing works using PDF, but it's all integrated without an exploit ridden piece of additional software to keep up to date over the whole estate. I hold the encryption keys for my Google instance so I don't even need to trust Google.
  6. Authenticated signing is built in to Google Workspace. You would just select "Tools -> eSignature". Our legal department are much happier than they are with a scanned wet ink signature as it can actually be validated (and they manage the templates used). In your scenario, you could share the doc first for checking and then request signing. Much less hassle, better result.
  7. There is indeed a setting for this and it is turned on. I suspect that you are double clicking the submit button. Please only use a single click. If that is not the case, please read the information at the top of the site issues forum and create a post there.
  8. Please provide the details requested at the top of this forum. Did it work after clearing cookies and cache? If not, what were you uploading? File type and size please, as well as the other information.
  9. This poll will be open for the first week of the month
  10. I think you've misunderstood what these meetings are for. It's to tick a box saying that fans were "involved". It could be a useful communications channel, but at the moment they are not.
  11. Your ratings and reactions please. Keep it respectful even if you know everyone else is wrong. A mod will add the players to the MoTM poll later.
  12. Villa v Burnley Please do not mention streams or streaming in this thread. Please note that there is no distinction between legal or illegal, video or audio. If you aren't sure, it doesn't go in this thread. You will receive warning points if you ignore this.
  13. Please use the Heck thread to post about Heck. This is for discussing the meeting.
  14. I'd expect the club to be compensated for the inconvenience of any building work performed by the landlord.
  15. Do you want me to turn VT's blog function back on?
