You didn't come close to answering the question correctly. You don't know. Fully automatic capable weapons have been pretty much outlawed in the US since the 80s. It requires a LOT of paper work through a class 3 FFL. A transferable fully automatic weapon cannot be found for less then $10,000 and they are from before the ban. (1986 I believe) Stop believing the stuff you see on TV...
Assault Weapons are not fully automatic. An "Assault Weapon" is any rifle that is semi automatic and has a forward handle and/or bayonet mount mounted on it.
Fear comes from being confronted with your lack of knowledge. Making decisions based on lack of knowledge (fear) is stupid. There is no other description.
"Assault weapons" look scary to people who watch TV and have no real idea about fire arms. That means that if you take the single most popular 22 plinking rifle (Ruger 10/22: Great first gun for a boy) and add a front handle to it you have a "dangerous assault weapon"... Don't advertise your stupidity.
The real head shaker in this is in this "Land of Liberty" people with no clue want to tell good responsible what they should have to use for their safe and fun hobby. And you don't need more then four clubs to play golf. Besides, golf courses in general helps create elevated pollen counts in areas that naturally had low pollen counts creating a danger for people with severe asthma. I don't play golf so outlaw it!
You don't need an automatic transmission in a car unless you can prove you have a severe disability. Automatic transmissions breed an amazing number of incredibly dangerous driving habits and seriously limit controllability in marginal traction conditions. (The whole "I'm aiming my couch" mentality scares me every day.) Let's outlaw automatics and save some lives. (It would save some lives...)
The willingness of "Americans" to hand away their rights for window dressing drops my jaw. Getting rid of the rights as you gain a false "head in the sand" feeling of safety is foolhardy. If you read the founding fathers it is pretty clear that Liberty is a risk! They never imagined that the risk of liberty would ever be as low as it is in our current over sanitized era so they were thinking it was worth paying a MUCH higher price to have. If the unbelievably low price/risk of Liberty is too much for you to risk then you need to consider moving out of the "Land of the Free and the home of the Brave".
It is amazing that in this world of selection of lawmakers by popularity contest that we can get "winners" that are so willing to open there mouths and make decision's about things that they know nothing about.
For the "scared of guns" crowd out there: "What percentage of gun related crimes involve rifles?"
"What makes something an "assault" rifle?"
"If it is correct to ban something that is used more then 99% of the time for legal purposes then why are you allowed to use and own a car?"
"Oh, the poor, poor helpless victims. Our hearts go out to the helpless victims! We must do something to protect the helpless victims!!!"
WAKE UP. "Victim" is a symptom of being "Helpless". Forcing people to be helpless by force of law is insane!
After all the hype it didn't deliver any more than Virtualbox and all the others.
Except for the part where it can be setup by non techy types by installing three "updates" from a single simple download page. Plus it comes with a pre-installed, licensed and activated copy of virtualized XP for 0$ that is legal for free use even in enterprise environments.
The OP most likely doesn't have Mac as most Mac users believe they are immune from the problems of malware. (Lower probability of blindly running blindly off a cliff is not the same thing as immunity...) The OP almost certainly doesn't use Linux seeing they way they differentiated the Linux boot CD from their normal environment.
So if they want to install an add on VM system like VMware they can:
- Acquire and install the virtual host software
- Figure out how to install the virtual OS inside the host
- Figure out how to activate and/or license the virtualized OS
Or if the OP has Win 7 (pretty good odds)
- They can follow the prompts on the download page for XP Mode and get a legally licensed, preloaded, and activated copy of Win XP in a virtual environment that 95% of adults will be able to navigate with no learning curve. I was mistaken earlier when I thought XP Mode required the Pro version of Windows. (Pretty uncharacteristic of them to make something like that available for free across the whole product range.)
The download link is: Microsoft Download Center - XP Mode. Just follow the page instructions and download and install the pieces and you are golden. I would create them a separate Win 7 user and remove all the obvious icons for anything local to keep them from mucking things up.
Once it is in it runs as if it is an RDP session to a remote computer. Very simple.
But yeah, if you want to buy or stealware a more difficult solution, then yeah, that is possible.
If you are running Windows then with any luck you are running Win 7 Pro. If you have the Home version you can upgrade with the "Anytime upgrade" bit.
With Win 7 Pro you can install XP Mode which is an XP virtual machine. Set up a guest user and set that to autorun the XP Mode VM in full screen. Once it is setup make a copy of the VHD as a backup. They can hose it up all they want and when they are done just delete the VHD and copy in the fresh copy from the backup.
People really get emotionally involved with their 'need' for gun control. They base their decisions on fear which is a horrible way to formulate any useful action. ... "Bad thing happen. It happen with gun. Me fear gun... Make guns illegal!"
This works out to the "Ostridge head in the sand" theory which works out to "Wish it away" and ignores most of what is going on. People have become so disconnected from realities of life that they don't recognize that we live in the safest time in human history and they are now OBSESSED with the feeling of safety. They fail to come to grips with the idea that they are 100% mortal and that hiding from that will not solve anything real except you can hang on to your false feeling longer.
Lets look at the big fear that has attacked the media that a huge number of people are gobbling up:
Oh no, the "Helpless Victims". Our hearts go out to the "Helpless Victims". We have a new interview with one of the "Helpless Victims".
Let's look at the key part of this-> "Helpless Victims", "Helpless" "Victims". The phrase "Helpless Victims" is telling you something.
You don't get "Victims" without having the "Helpless" part there with it. The problem wasn't that they were victims. That is the symptom. The problem is the "Helpless" part. Having the government declare that you must be helpless by law is insane. The "government" won't be there to save you when bad things happen. They probably won't even be able to punish (of real questionable value) whoever victimized you.
The ostridge crowd we cry but we want to stop violence. News flash: Violence works. Ask the lions and gazelles on the Serengeti. Ask governments: When push comes to shove: violence ends up being the last answer.
In everyday life if you don't want to be subjected to unwanted violence you need to prepare yourself because you can't stop someone/something else from inflicting harm on you by wishing it away.
As a MORTAL person of some capability and self control you have some responsibility to protect those less capable then you from harm. This is what we have lost in our modern world world. (Along with an adult conscience decision to accept a minute increase in risk in exchange for the responsibility of liberty.)
I notice the media never mentions that their chase for ratings (not news but newsertainment) is basically advertising for crazy people to do crazy things.
Yes the solution is to make sure that all people are helpless (by law). That will keep them safe!... So when a person goes wacko (crazy enough to ignore those laws) they will be... Uhhh...
Wait, that isn't turning out the way it was intended.
Well the police will keep us safe! Yes because when all of those violent crimes happen the police are there to save us!... Uhhhh...
Wait, that was on those episodes of 24 and Hawaii Five-0. On the news the police show up much later and they sometimes figure out who did what to whom (much later...).
Wake up. We live in the safest time in history. Idiot politicians are trying to legislate safety. I have a secret for you: Life has a 100% mortality rate. The "Safety" they are trying to legislate is a feeling.
What business do politicians have trying to legislate safety? They aren't are our nanny's and a government is not a responsible organization. If you had children who made the same choices regarding spending money and honesty you would ground them for life.
Lets talk about outlawing something that is a mass contributor to unhealthful living conditions and is responsible for a number of deaths each year (even when done in a safe fashion). It wastes natural resources at an astounding rate. Lets outlaw it!
A smaller percentage of the country pursues it has a past time the those that pursue shooting as a past time. Doctors used to recommend that people with sever asthma or other lung ailments move to Tucson, AZ (and similar places) because of low pollen counts. So they moved there and then people built golf courses and Tucson no longer had low pollen counts.
Trying to legislate safety by outlawing something that is generally safe because it could conceivably done to cause harm is a direct destruction of liberty, unpatriotic, stupidly insane, and tyrannical. Read up on what Franklin had to say about safety.

The speeds? Is that the "lie"? Teslas have 21" wheels normally. He was driving on 19" snow tires. If the system logging his speed wasn't calibrated for the wheel difference you'd see the logs indicate speeds about 10% higher than Broder was actually traveling. There's your discrepancy between the two. . ..
Uhhh, I don't usually drive the car on the wheels. I put tires on those wheels. Snow tires usually have more sidewall on them...
Stock available tire wheel combos for a Tesla S: 245/45R19 or optional 245/35R21. Difference in size is.1" (27.7" - 27.8") which works out to 0.3%.
I have customers using workstations older then this in production. I have Netware fileservers that haven't been rebooted since those were available new. This is not a reasonable subject for a Slashdot story.
The submitter should write back when they start working on an 8088 CPM machine like an IMSAI. Or maybe a Commodore Vic20 or even an old SGI station might be news worthy.
Back in the 90s the company owning the rights to the Archie comics went after "Veronica.org". A guy setup the site because he had a toddler named Veronica and he posted a couple pictures. It finally fell out in the guy's favor... http://news.cnet.com/2100-1023-220240.html
If being named the same as a site gave you rights, could you imagine the dust-up for johnsmith.com?

Part of Russia is in Europe... A comparatively small part. There is that whole "Asia thing" going on.
Russia doesn't give Europeans a sense of scale. When they pay attention to Russia at all they can pretty much ignore anything east of the Urals. Technically it has size but its population (all of Russia is less then half of the US) isn't spread across the country the way it is in the US. Looking at the road map of the vast majority of Russia gives you el'zippo. No roads, no towns, nothing. Go to Wyoming which is pretty empty (about twice the population of Huntington Beach) and there are roads everywhere.
It is kind of fun to see a European visitor come to grips with the size of the US. They can look at the maps but it just doesn't compute.
As an example: The driving distance between Seattle and New York is about the same as the distance from Stockholm to Tehran.
On the other hand...
The "competition" between all the big communications companies really works out to competing on how to lobby congress to keep themselves entrenched and to avoid rolling out real technical change that might cost them a dime.
Don't complain... They paid for their government. You didn't!!!
The article proclaims FUD. This is just silliness. The data requirements ARE NOT 600mbps just as 1080p's data requirements are not 150mbps.
Digital television is ALWAYS compressed.
It will require 4 times the data throughput as it is only 4 times as many pixels. Period. There isn't a downside. If it is only getting a 1080p signal then it will be at least that good and you know that they will have a lot of processing to anti alias the upscaled image. It will probably really help on 3D movies where they are cheesing out by cutting the vertical resolution in half.
The only issue will be getting the infrastructure caught up with it. The cable companies may have a problem but if they don't take care of it they will go the way of the buggy whip because the Internet and Netflix will scale to take care of it.
The only real issue that 4K may have is if it makes enough visual difference that anyone will care enough to pay the premium. I really think the only place it will really noticeably shine is 3D. We will just need to see how fast meaningful 3D content becomes available. And with the limitations on how much 3D content you should reasonably watch in a day that will slow the "need" for it.
Oh and two things:
- The phone is still communicating with the headset so the MAC is still sniffable.
- Additionally the headset IS set to advertise and it does have a MAC.
the city says it cannot connect the MAC address collected to the device owner...until they figure out how to hook a camera with a license plate reader to the Bluetooth sniffer.
[sarcasm] Outlandish as it may seem but someone might have the technology [/sarcasm]
Small new devices are 'cool' but that isn't where MS / Ballmer missed the point. They took Microsoft's flagship OS and optimized the whole user interface to work on 'cool' handheld devices where they don't have a serious foothold in the market. I know that they are salivating looking at Apple's App Store and Google's Play Store but they just thumbed their nose at everyone who uses the most entrenched desktop operating system in the world. It is a train wreck as a desktop UI and they are so obscenely blind that they didn't see it or just plain ignored it.
How many people with a tablet and a PC will sit down and use the tablet for word processing or an spreadsheet? This is the biggest opening for a competitor to jump into the desktop OS market I've ever seen. And for the people who think hand held toys like tablets "are a paradigm shift" then explain to me how that correlates with the number of dual or triple display setups that are being rolled out? (Ask Oracle how the mas shift to thin computing is working for them!)
The boat has been missed. Let's see if they notice.
