I checked my Power draw when the Pretty blue LED is on ( 40W ) vs off, and when off ( still 40 W ). Multiply that by 4 boxes and we have some substantial
drain. WHY oh WHY would a cable company need to have the service staying up while I am not watching? Clearly, this is to suit their purpose.
When I turn it OFF, it should go OFF. Always wondered if the CC was using my boxes as Wireless access points, without my knowledge. They do clain to have a MILLION access points... VERY glad to hear of competition in the Cable TV industry.
Science is undertaken to advance our ability to make life better - in the many ways it might. Has all the money/man-years we've invested as a culture in ST yielded any benefit outside the realm of ST itself? As a tax payer who indirectly funds such esoteric endeavors, I want to know what this is doing for science. Hey.. Sheldon even left the field...
At what point does the "lightness" and "Stiffness" become a liability? At some point, it could get to be a Superball.... The structure has to crumple predictably, and not sacrifice the passengers living space. OTOH, the weight savings for things like engines and transmissions might be great... there is no real benefit to a heavy powertrain. WHeels come to mind.. But... OP brings p the point.. What is the corrosion pattern for this material? Wouild calcium chloride spell the demise of this material? I look at the shards of rusty steel dropping from my Ranger and has sad.
When the subconscious is targeted, it's going to feel like manipulation. While not in favor of government regulations for things like this, it seems low-rent to mess with our heads... would imagine the targeting will be effective and us pawns will line up to eat sawdust more predictably. Joy. Win for humans Being. Bzzzzt.
Spent an hour this AM getting my work Desktop unstuck from a looping coredump by systemd... may have been due to some issue with Yum update, but still. F1 console was flashing and unusable, was able to use F2 Console to firefight, but, still... Do one thing, and do it well comes to mind.Am stuck with it, but... what are the alternatives? Tired of debugging this monster.
At one point, we had firewalls (at many levels) and some sense of partitioned security. Now to do business in some places, you have to put your process there and by that, the intellectual property is ripe for the picking. The West (US in particular) is very predictable, as we are an open society.. so if you want to suck out all the useful intel, you plan accordingly. I would guess we are allowed to exist until we present no benefit to some societies. We've donated willingly generations of knowledge of how to make things, taught the world how to learn, and now wonder why our good jobs are siphoned off, and our middle class is crashing. How many US cities are built with methods/technologies that are no longer local? Could we design a TV set anymore, or drive standards or accomplish grand things without relying on global resources? Masters of our own domain? Soveriegn? Not sure about walls, but we might benefit from some form of protectionism.
Right.. but the value of vi is reduced as the log files are not ascii text, and the CLI is at best awkward... so.. the tools that SysAdmins FELT were core are mariginalized by having to go thru a different logical layer to get the information you want. THe more I think about it, Systemd will be good for Soda Machines, and internet Kiosks and IOT stuff may be a good match for a generalized OS. I would like to see a scope statement from those that think SisD is the cats pajamas for everything. Will Systemd subsume all of Unix Configuration?
And to get really usefull. Login as self. 'sudo/bin/su - appaccount' and you dont even need to -have- a password for that account. Turn off SSH access for that account, and you'll have a solid, password free solution. We will be losing passwords soon, this is one way to get there. Nope. not broken. Easy to setup, easy to log. +1 for Poetnix fork.
LP's previous fix was done to the sound system pulseaudio. Similarly with majestic scope and intentions. Has it changed what I can do with sound? No, not really.
Its still not complete.... at least from the user perspective looking inward. I have an audio slider on my Fedora Desktop. there are still several audio mixer devices that not found/detected. How about we ask LP to finish that work (realized by a finished product in redhat desktop product) rather than "fixing" everything else.
Well put. The notion that *nix is a structure built by many people, with many bricks (and many eyes on each) is being violated.
Its not about using larger bricks, its about using one brick?
How will that brick be patched? How many eyes are on that brick? How does the community build and grow Systemd?
Its time for a split,probably going back to volkerding's work, or BSD and rethinking init and networking and.. sure. sudo as well.
Who has the leverage to ask why more is being done by fewer and fewer?
Ok, thanks for the clarification. Sounds like an FTC issue then... as we are paying our carriers to provide service and support. Thats the expectation anyway. Is the real-world fix then to root the phone, delete stagefright libraries, while we wait for this long suspected vulnerability to get fixed by our carrier? This is a long recognized issue, shame on the Android Ecosystem for not having a solution now that day 1 is upon us. What do we lose if we root/delete the stagefright libraries? All multimedia ? Multimedia in Text?
Who hasn't given up any expectation privacy when installing apps that want to pull your contact list, accounts, bloody everything?
Then on the logistics front: the play store provides updates to hangout. Why would vendor (ex: Samsung, Verizon, Motorola) need to provide a patch?
Is this core functionality the issue?
Would seem the next time Play store wants to update Hangouts, in goes the patch.
Is this just -another- slow press day when we are all supposed to be afraid, and pay attention to the media?
The original work may have special value since it was made by the original artist.. but.. sometimes these marvelous works are not suitable for handling/experiencing by interested parties. a book from the middle ages is probably going to be untouchable by Joe Public, but an exact duplicate on modern paper might be read by more people. I am FAR from approving of destruction of original works... That has been done by so many groups over time. so... Lets start duplicating objects of art so the destruction of the original does not mean much to the miscreants. Less motive to destroy original if there are many copies!!
There is always a soft spot under one of the black round circles on a coconut.. its where the straw goes!
Perhaps this is where we are supposed tap into the interstellar fuel source!
Hey, not for nothing, but does anyone remember Usenet and Dejanews, where you could search up on any technical string and you would find -help- with things, but now, its all about -buying- things.... It was a big part of the value of a search engine to me anyway. Search is all about money which is fine when I want o buy something. i just want a switch to select Buy/Learn/History/people etc...We need a way to filter the search results.
How about a context switches? One for purchasing/acquiring, one for history, one for technical details, One for and people related to an object?
When I search now, I have to search between buying opportunities and buying opportunities and more.
Thanks all for the education... I always dug the mosasaurs at the museums. There seemed to always be bigger ones around the corner! having critter that big give birth in the skinny waters I guess could have been an option... but... good to know how they lived. Frightening beast that they were. Any chance we could get enough DNA to remanufacture one?

Bought a Tivo Premiere in 2010 with lifetime, and its the best investment.Top shelf DVR.
Switched Digital TV.. so the tuner leaves the house and goes upstream to the distribution layer.. and remove any CHANCE of unintended usage!

That is the exposure to be concerned with.. how does it get a foot hold on a server? What it does, is after the FAIL.
Is this a sales play from DrWeb? I can make a KSH called /tmp/ls that does the same thing....
Time shifting provides such relief. Tivo still sets the standard for something PEOPLE want.

Good Read: http://www.washingtonpost.com/... a view from someone capable of leading the charge to differentiate Extremists from the Faithful.

The alternative for them was on land? I dont get the mysery of this one. Did hey have nests? Were they territorial? news that matters. please.
