Yes, lets not have the media watch police in adrenalin situation, what could go wrong?
I don't watch high speed pursuits, but frankly it just shows how little importance everything else the report has. I high speed pursuit on my freeways is a hell of a lot more pertinent then sports, which actress is banging who, and whether or not a kitten was rescued from a a tree by a 'hero'.
Sure, I am not driving when I see it on TV, but that doesn't mean I wont be going anywhere.
Well, I don't want the police to not have any reason to act civil. You may be used to the police being able to do what ever they want with no checks in place, but I don't want that.
Just so you are aware: The current tactic of all the police depts is: Sue Extremely large violent forces. Target the people reporting the protest. Once removed, go in smash everything, Blame damages on the protester Charge obscene amounts of overtime and blame the protesters.
This is how free people end up in police states. The mid east was free until about the 50's.
Also, chiefs of police dept are talking across state lines; which is illegal.
The problem is, anytime a law enforcement use channels outside of verifiable by the public, the risk of abuse increases.
His concern is unrealistic. IT';s typical of people in security to think of the worse possible case; that's why there needs to be checks at actual risk analysis.
Lets take Bank RObberies.
What happens. criminals come in, alarm goes off. Police are on the way. If the police arrive before the criminal leave, then there is no reason for encryption, they know where you are.
If the criminals leave before the police arrive, then a chase takes place; usually with helicopter. Again, no need for encryption.
If the criminals get away before law enforcement arrive, then.. well no need for encryption.
If they want to set up to capture the criminals outside the bank, then encryption doesn't matter because the routes are closed down.
In no case do the criminal think the police aren't on their way.
I could see some very specific reasons for situation encryption. But it should be authorized for that event. And unencrypted data should be released immediately after the incident.
Most crime aren't commit by people think clear enough to muse a police scanner.
Really, this is a guy who watched a lot of heist movies as a kid and think that's how criminal operate; which is a shame considering his postion. Not unusual, just a shame. That attitude is also why I don't do security work anymore.
Yes, but their is a different between the underlying risk of launching a ship into space, and launching even though a known defect has appeared.
An unforeseen piece of foam hitting the wing is different then engineers saying the seals aren't seal properly and this specific launch has an extremely high chance of failure..
during this incident. I said it then, and I'll say it now: Why didn't he go to the press? Hell, he wasn't alone. If all the engineers went to the press, they would have stop the launch. Hell, and bogus bomb threat would have delayed it until it was warmer.
He tried to go through the system. When the system failed he just returned to his desk.
Yes, it may have cost him his job. Unless MT let their PR handle it.
I was not an engineer, and I was completely outside and unware this was going on.
No, they aren't. This is a common mantras from religious zealots that have no idea where stem cells come from and just look for an excuse to shove their belief down out throats.
Right now, Fetal Stem cells have many more advantages.
A) Some hardware has software embedded into it, yeah shocking.
B) Parts fail in space craft. If the software failed to detects a failed piece and roll to back up, the software has it's roll in the incident as well.
C) If it jump to the wrong mode after the error, that's also a software error.
I'm not saying one way or another in the specific incident. The idea that there is a hard line between all software and hardware is false, and technical people should know better.
" Also, the streaming sites often fail to properly support captioning" \yes, this is a problem. I want an easy way to rip DVD/Blu-Ray to my disk so that it platys exactly as if I had put a disk in. Sub titles on or off, language changes, etc.
In store, the consumer decision was: We have a beta max, it cost more, blank tapes cost more, and it records 2 hours.
The we have VHS, cheaper tapes, cheaper machine, and recorded longer. THAT killed Betamax in the consumer market. The fact that it was a slightly superior format never came into it.

Tat's what happens when you hide stuff. Some of it disappears.

of course not.
Also, the 3 engineers could have gone to the press.
and it's wrong. So stop spreading it.

post modern bullshit.
I was born in the United States of America. FACT. /. - FACT
You post on
Satellites are in orbit - FACT
In science a fact is on objective and verifiable observation.
This is why Germ Theory is a theory AND a fact.
Also why 1 + 1 = 2 is a fact.
It's observable, it reproducible.
Peano's axioms helps explain that fact.
The trouble here is, you are talking out of your ass. So, what? a BS?
Except in this incident there was a substantially higher chance of failure, and they new it.
Everyone knows mission are dangerous. That is why there is a very high standard of quality.
No, they aren't. This is a common mantras from religious zealots that have no idea where stem cells come from and just look for an excuse to shove their belief down out throats.

No, not ding ding ding, you ding-a-ling.
The bought it from Fujitsu, nor Proview; which has registered the trademark in several countries.
And it is not unheard of for business to get IP agreements from Chinese companies under the Agreement they won't use it in China.
I don't know because I don't have a copy of the contract; i'm just saying it ma not be as unreasonable as we think.
No. You are welcome to go to the times and pay for a subscription that uses actual editors.
It's HARD.
I mean, we have pretty much mapped every spot on the planet, yet airplanes still crash.
What we do know for sure: Bottom.
Problem came on board during the first SW:EP1 discussion, not any of the technical ones. Not that there was any real technical ones at the time.
A) Some hardware has software embedded into it, yeah shocking.
B) Parts fail in space craft. If the software failed to detects a failed piece and roll to back up, the software has it's roll in the incident as well.
C) If it jump to the wrong mode after the error, that's also a software error.
I'm not saying one way or another in the specific incident. The idea that there is a hard line between all software and hardware is false, and technical people should know better.
If a software failover fails, and the currently used chip fail, then it's both.
Please, do some low lever software /hardware work before opening you mouth.
This isn't one of your slapped together VB3 front end.
Yeah, YOU Herd me.
Me too, and that guy owes me money!
Just in time to be replaced by drones.
Why isn't TiVo a good solution?
" Also, the streaming sites often fail to properly support captioning"
\yes, this is a problem.
I want an easy way to rip DVD/Blu-Ray to my disk so that it platys exactly as if I had put a disk in. Sub titles on or off, language changes, etc.
No, not just porn. There are a ton of non Hollywood niche markets; which includes porn, but it isn't any way limited to it.
Not all recording contracts are the same.
If that anchor has a lot of money attached to it, then what's the problem?
Yep.
In store, the consumer decision was:
We have a beta max, it cost more, blank tapes cost more, and it records 2 hours.
The we have VHS, cheaper tapes, cheaper machine, and recorded longer. THAT killed Betamax in the consumer market. The fact that it was a slightly superior format never came into it.
But can he cross them?
