This will pick up the sound of the propelant escaping the gun's muzzel and possibly measure differences in pressure of the atmosphere (which would likely only be effective in buildings).
I'm pretty sure that "various gunshots" sound a lot more like one another than "a gunshot" and "a book hitting the floor" sound like one another:
For instance: - dropping a book doesn't cause a supersonic snap as it passes by the sensor - a bullet does. - a book hitting the floor is not going to create a sound that is 120 dB to 160 dB - noise levels equivalent to "somewhere between a pnemuatic riveter and a jet engine." The muzzle blast from a gun does create a sound that loud.
So there's two fairly easy to discriminate characteristics that are pretty unlikely in a school setting. If the system detects and reports on those, it should be pretty easy to eliminate false positives from some douche-canoe in the library dropping a book on the floor.
I take it you've never fired any guns in your life. The sound of a gunshot varies wildly with the type of gun, the type of ammunition, the space you're in, the direction the gun is facing relative to you, and your distance from the gun (distance doesn't just effect the loudness). A rifle shot in an open space can be heard for miles. A handgun shot in a closed room can go unnoticed by people in the adjoining room.
I can guarantee you 2 things: 1: This system simply detects and tries to locate the source of a sudden spike. 2: Students will try to trip it, and they will succeed.
Hey, if I write an email, I own the copyright, correct?
Then you have your client set to require encryption, not merely prefer it. And thus your client never sends an email in the clear, and thus they have not violated the DMCA or your copyright.
We can start by stating the obvious: It is never appropriate to use slurs, metaphors, graphic negative imagery, or any other kind of language that plays on someone's gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, or religion.
Wrong. Just because it hurts your feelings doesn't mean it's not appropriate. The entire POINT is to hurt your feelings. Similarly for doxxing, posting nudes, etc.
Wrong. The parent is confusing observational inconsistencies due to relativistic speed with causality. They are not the same. Causality is not violated when two observers in different reference frames see different things.
NASA really needs to stop being a fucking global warming shill organization and get back to putting people into space (fucking space, not the upper atmosphere).
As long as there's no faster-than-light travel, "X happens before Y" is an invariant - it's true in all reference frames.
No. http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/... and for the longer version http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L.... In these examples, the doors either close at the same time for the observer stationary with respect to the barn, or at different times for the observer running with the pole.
Congratulations! You have failed to understand what relativity means! Hint: Time is fucking relative!
TOR does nothing. Anyone can run an exit node. Anyone can track your shit back to the IP you entered TOR with. The government operates many TOR exit nodes.
"We sell legal things too!!1111!!" is about as salient a point as "But what if I use Bittorrent to download Linux ISOs?!?!111" or "But The Pirate Bay doesn't host content!!!". It doesn't stop the people doing illegal things from being busted. It doesn't stop the ISPs, governments, etc. from attacking the service as a whole. It doesn't stop people from being jailed for setting up the service.
The ONLY way to be anonymous is to use someone else's connection and to spoof your MAC when doing so. To maintain anonymity over time you'll choose a random MAC each time you connect to someone else's connection, not use the same connection repeatedly, and not use connections near your residence.
The internet works by routing packets from host to host. Everything that touches a major ISP is recorded by the government. If you are using a connection attached to your name or address, you are fucked. If you are using other connections but using your real MAC address, or a browser that uniquely identifies you, you will be fucked once they start mapping your behavior over time.
If you want to stay anonymous and hidden, you have to anonymize and hide your physical connection to the internet. The only other things worth doing are: 1 - Encryption using pre-shared keys (shared OFFLINE). The key can be anything from a password to a certificate to one time pads. If you use certificates you must not use any of the "trusted" certificate authorities - you must self-sign. 2 - Steganography. Don't trust that the well-known encryption algorithms are secure. Use your own algorithms on top of that to mask and hide shit.
If you really, really want to do shit in secret on the internet you're going to have to do some work.
Granting us permission to use your information not only allows us to provide Facebook as it exists today, but it also allows us to provide you with innovative features and services we develop in the future that use the information we receive about you in new ways. While you are allowing us to use the information we receive about you, you always own all of your information. Your trust is important to us, which is why we don't share information we receive about you with others unless we have:
received your permission; given you notice, such as by telling you about it in this policy; or
removed your name and any other personally identifying information from it.
Of course, for information others share about you, they control how it is shared. We store data for as long as it is necessary to provide products and services to you and others, including those described above. Typically, information associated with your account will be kept until your account is deleted. For certain categories of data, we may also tell you about specific data retention practices. We may enable access to public information that has been shared through our services. We may allow service providers to access information so they can help us provide services.
Any "service provider" can access any of your data, bundle it up, and resell it. This is how Facebook makes money.
You quoted proof of your dumbassery. He said it was HARD to get Ebola into a country with modern sanitation systems. Yet not a week later we saw just how fucking it easy was for Ebola to get in AND how easy it was for it to spread, not just in the wild but in the very places that are supposed to be secure from that shit. Keep trying, though.
Apple knows about every "app" on their store. MS has no idea how many windows applications are out there. Further, you're discounting the last 4 and a half years of applications on the Windows side.
In the space of 44 characters you go from saying most Windows applications are "unlikely to work well on a touch screen" to "Moreover, I can't estimate quality.". If you can't estimate quality of shit you don't use (hint - you can't), why don't you stop doing it?
Given one man, one woman, one toilet. Women put the seat up when they're done, men put (or leave) the seat down when they're done.
The next user will likely be the opposite person, and they will have the seat set for them unless:
1 - They are a man who needs to take a shit after a woman last used the toilet. He has to put the seat down before shitting, but he then does not have to take an additional action afterward. No effort wasted here.
2 - They were the one who used it last. They have to undo and repeat their action.
There are orders of magnitude more Windows applications than "apps" for iOS. And you shouldn't compare those that work well with a touch screen to all "apps" for iOS - you should compare all to all or those that work well to those that work well.
Imagine a car that runs into a wall and bounces off at angle X, then hits another wall and bounces off at angle Y, and ends up in a ditch.
This is like the wall shifting your car back x feet at the moment of impact so that when it bounces off at angle X and hits the second wall, it does so at a spot directly across from the original impact on the first wall. The second wall will also shift the car back, so when it bounces off it at angle Y, instead of ending up in the ditch it ends up impacting the same spot on the first wall. If you can do this such that angle X and Y are equal (respective to the incident walls), then the car will bounce back and forth between the two walls forever (until stopped by friction/gravity/whatever). Alternatively, the angles can be different but the points of contact not lined up - you'd have 4 (or more) points of contact in an X or hourglass configuration.
Those are your own numbers, dipshit. I stated that I'd love to see the moron repost his same "all is well" comment in 10 days after case in the US skyrocketed. It was only 7 days before cases in the US skyrocketed, and no one with a brain would dare to repeat his retarded comment about how Ebola can't spread in the US. Keep trying though.
This is largely a myth. The Inuit languages are composite, meaning you can build "new" words by combining parts that would be separate words in other languages. So they have base words for snow, slush, drifts, etc just like most languages do. But then they have modifiers for wet, dry, fine, blown, falling, etc that get tacked on to form a new word but the same modifier can be tacked on to other root words just as well. In other words, there's very little difference between the Inuit word for "fine, dry snow blowing in the wind" and the English phrase "fine, dry snow blowing in the wind".
This is largely a myth. The Inuit languages are like any other language, and have plenty of synonyms and near synonyms. Further, snow is an integral part of their native habitat, and there are many distinct types of it, just as there are distinct types of bodies of water in the English language (sea, ocean, river, brook, stream, puddle, pond, lake, marsh, swap, etc.).
I can make up plausible bullshit too without referencing any words in the fucking language I'm claiming to correct people on too.

Unless that terrorist decided to just hop the fence one day.
As for free wi-fi, you'd need to find a new hot spot each time you connected. Away from your house.

There, that's better.
I wonder how their IP will be sold once this is all finalized with the banks. I'm unclear of the process.
Maybe they'll be bought over and continue (almost) as normal, isn't that what happened with OCZ when they went bankrupt?
Then again, I don't think the OCZ brand came with baggage like a fraud case...
OCZ's entire catalog was essentially fraud.
Shit simply didn't fucking work as advertised.
I think it's also a type of bird.
