They have a video camera that takes frames faster than light can travel, so they have the technology. Problem is it requires the subject to be ungodly bright.
So unless the collapse is holy shit bright, it cant be imaged.
But they could do an animation that explains it to us muggles that dont want to read through a paper written by people that are intentionally writing for getting tenure or funding.
If you go to your home improvement stores, you can buy "magnetic paint" that significantly attenuates RF. Two coats and running the paint over a copper strip that goes to the outlet ground will make a HUGE dent in RF penetration into a room. It has an incredibly high iron content and it is decently conductive.
Actually didn't some of the first Command And Conquer games allow you to do genocide? I know red alert allowed you to nuke the hell out of your opponent to win.
But but... you cant expect teachers to actually TEACH!
Teachers today are lazy. Microphones and speakers in the room so they can get louder than the kids, because they don't want to tell the brats to shut the hell up and then speak in a speaking voice so everyone can hear. Instead of writing on a chalkboard, they show them a youtube video and then look at a powerpoint that is 2 or more years old.
how about teaching? from paper books and using their hands, eyes, and ears?
Typical incompetent Government Contractors and Engineers or Administration.
IF you cant keep them cool then the guy that designed the HVAC is a moron. It is not hard to calculate the required heat generating load unless some moron NSA higher up changed the number of systems the place was supposed to hold after construction started. Then it's that guys fault and he needs to be waterboarded for 30 days just to teach him a lesson.
Honestly a data center is not rocket science anymore, it is so well documented in what is needed that even a 1st year engineering student can easily design a proper one with proper HVAC needs.
COD ends your mission as soon as a civ is killed. so their complaints are based on games from the early 90's as most every game I have played causes you pain if you start a murder spree.
Are they outraged about Postal 1 and 2? or redneck rampage? because those are the only things I can see fit their complaint.
"A-L has been going down the tubes for quite a while. It's pretty amazing to think that part of the company used to be the mighty Bell Labs."
Not really, bad or short sighted leadership can take even the biggest company down to the rocks in a short time. When all that matters is "next quarters profits" your company will be in the shithole within 5 years.
"The animosity and hatred that they face on a daily basis is what's really at fault here."
That they create themselves and DO NOTHING to change. Instead of driving the drunk guy home they arrest him. That is just being an asshole and the cops know it.
If they want to change their image, then stop being "THE LAW" and start being a public servant.
Exactly! Microsoft got the handwriting recognition almost perfect back in the early days. It went to hell later after they found out they were infringing on patents and changed it completely.
The problem is that they also tried a lot of lock in. For example, the very first smart car stereo, the Clarion AutoPC ran windows and used the Auto PC platform. they crippled it so that unless you paid for the "signing" of your app the app will not run in the background an it completely killed the platform. Plus Clarion made everything "special" so that you could not design any add on's without paying through the nose to use their special connector (It was USB with 4 more wires to carry audio and Composite video)
This is Microsofts legacy. Innovate but make it die because they will not open it up to get everyone to design for the platform.

I agree, or make airplanes out of metal. I am so tired of these wood and cloth airplanes that Delta has been flying.
You win TWO internets!

Editors?
You must be new here. Slashdot has never had editors.

Yup a middle manager who is actually 100% useless trying to make it look like he is actually doing something at the company.
It's just proof that Direct TV is still very top heavy and still needs to cut a LOT from the top and middle to become more profitable.
Oh dear god, listen to the whiners when you even suggest a 17" laptop... OMG the whining becomes immense. Bunch of frail little old men.

No, knowing govt projects. Nothing labelled and changes made on the fly that are not documented. One building they had 48 breakers and NONE labeled.
Dont make us come there and look for WMD's in your back yard.

Whoever hired the site contractor is at fault. Never allow a moron executive to make any decisions on something that he has no clue about.
For a low grade website.
And to fix it they will pay the same low grade contractor more money.
And people wonder why our Government cant do anything right.
Ask people who live in Greenland. Short of the docks where ships bring them there are NO roaches.

Their newer stuff is fantastic, but also the Canon newer stuff is as well the gap is closing incredibly fast.

This alone invalidates EVERYTHING said in this article.
Police look at every single civilian as an enemy first. Remember that.
He also invented the internet!
Prices are still high and fluctuate like crazy...
They need to STOP speculation trading on it to stabilize the prices.
