1000 watts is what an electric space heater might use; the cost would be below 20 cents an hour. 1000 watts is enough to be received in your car 20 miles away. Within 10 miles of the pirate transmitter, the pirate could easily overpower a legal station. This might cause financial harm to the legal station and its advertiser who expects to be heard in the pirate's region.
Your solution is not unreasonable, but the low power licensee would have to actually obey the restrictions he's licensed to operate under.
Antenna height matters more than output power. VHF amateur radio stations typically run 20 to 100 watts and work fine at 20 miles or more. Less than 20 watts is fine for line of sight operations outside of the Fresnel zone to the horizon.
it's not nothing to do with moral policing. Credit card transactions are effectively loans. In large parts of the world you have a legal right to dispute any charge on your card as a result. Adult content has a high percentage of disputes (probably from guys who's wives/girlfriends notice the charge). Even if you can prove the charge is valid it's still expensive to do so. Hence why nobody wants to be involved in it.
With corporations always, always, always follow the money. Anything bigger than a leomonade stand is completely amoral.
Tell that to companies which have anything to do with firearms.
Britain is a civilised western democracy, and its police come under intense scrutiny given its abysmal historical record in Northern Ireland. They don't want to fuck things up
They sure are. They have nothing to learn from US law enforcement.
This is terrible! How can they justify convicting people based on DNA evidence alone!
Oh wait, they don't.
And they do not arrest, interrogate, hold people in jail in violation of the Eighth Amendment, charge them, and pressure them into a plea bargain either, except when they do.
It may shock you to learn that police don't have the resources to keep investigating cases they've already closed. You don't need to do much googling to find cases where DNA exonerated someone who was found guilty, but it wasn't the police investigating that...
But they have the resources to object to releasing evidence for testing when it might prove innocence.
A bullet fired straight up will come back down with almost the same force minus a bit of wind resistance...
It comes down minus a lot of wind resistance, at terminal velocity, either tumbling or falling base down depending on how much excess stability it had from spin. 150 to 300 feet per second is typical so 1/10th the velocity and 1/100th of the kinetic energy.
Actually, I'm wondering why it's so hard to get the money back. Of course, if they take it out of an ATM, it's gone. But I don't suppose they took 1.2 billion out of ATMs. So most of it just went from bank account to bank account to bank account. How hard can it be to trace?
They hire mules and send them forged ATM cards who then extract the money as cash and send it back for a percentage.
Intel seems to assume customers want MORE CORES at a lower clock rate. No, I want a faster clock rate using less power!
Unfortunately that is incompatible with power density limited designs which are scaled to smaller feature sizes. Intel would have to use a *larger* die to achieve a lower thermal resistance which directly increases cost.
How do you patch an OS in ROM, after someone found a way to remotely activate your ROM OS and has free reign over your computer?
There are many ways ROMs were patched in the past but the common way now is to patch after copying into shadow RAM which is normally done anyway for performance.
Devil's advocate says that if you arrest every 10th person you meet, you will probably advert a lot of crimes, if you just do it often enough. 99.99% of the people you arrest won't be on their way to a crime though.
But how do you know that if you do not arrest them?
If a system consistently gave out a 20% likely figure, the people using the system would want their money back. So, no the system isn't able to generate that information. Make it the fault of the human and not the system to sell the system.

Nobody complains about false positives with drug dog searches. Why would they care about false positives with facial recognition? Just do not record them and the problem is solved.
Since the executive, judicial, and legislative branches of government are not enforcing the 4th Amendment and are not going to, I no longer care about court decisions and the false reassurances from politicians. The solution is much more practical; encrypt absolutely everything and throw away the session keys. With some cleverness, even traffic analysis can be prevented by multiplying traffic which the ISPs should love since they have so much extra capacity.
There are legitimate reasons for the NSA's data access.
When does their access become a search for 4th amendment purposes?
I ask because we also know that the NSA is forwarding search results to domestic law enforcement who then use parallel construction to prevent court review.
From my perspective the ironic part is that if it was not for Microsoft screwing up Windows in an attempt to leverage their desktop monopoly into the tablet and PDA market, the desktop market would be stronger. Microsoft is in a position to kill the x86 desktop market but Intel has not taken any steps to save it.
In hindsight, CF bulbs were necessary, but really a joke of a product. Only in todays world would a buyer tolerate ten times the pruchase price, slow starting, flickering, wrong color, gets dimmer with age, can't be dimmed, needs to be recycled because of mercury, doesn't last as long as claimed, and can't be used in half of the (fully enclosed) fixtures. But hey you saved on electricity!
LED bulbs learned from all that, even the EnergyStar rating requires much longer warranties because the early CF lifespans were laughable.
LED bulbs sure learned something all right; produce an even more expensive product and buy legislation mandating its use.
In my experience, LED bulbs do not last any longer than CF bulbs; where I live they have a half life of about 6 months unless powered by an online UPS. The manufacturers love to list the operating life of the LEDs until they dim a certain amount but that has nothing to do with the ballast failures. They still do not work in most lamp fixtures due to limited operating temperature range. The warranties are a joke; just try returning one and see how much it costs in time, effort, and money. Now return every bulb over a 6 month period and repeat.
I suspect this might be a flaw in the free market solves all ills school of thought... unless a future that includes a reduction in the human population of the planet is viewed as a net positive.
Or regulatory capture of the FDA is being used to prevent development of less economical treatments. Pick your poison.
Not only authority to legally order large software companies to patch security holes, but prosecute them for some form of criminal negligence when they do things like marketing routers with hard-coded default admin/vendor-access passwords (and especially for not mentioning that little detail very plainly to potential buyers).
Who do they prosecute when another government agency either pays or orders exploits to be designed in?
There should be 1 government organization responsible for computer security, and they should not also be in charge of spying as that deters foreign governments and corporations from fully cooperating with them. Giving them legal authority to force companies to patch security holes would also help.
The NSA has poisoned that well for the entire US government with the aid of the FBI and Congress. They even managed to smear NIST. Nobody should be cooperating with them.

The federal government is free to enforce its laws as much as it wants but it cannot require the states to do so or aid it.

I am near St. Louis and Charter/Spectrum started having problems sometime last night.
The line between life and not-life is already indistinct here on Earth. Viruses? Not-life...quite. Kinda life?
They have heredity and replicate in their environment so I would say so.

It didnâ(TM)t distort. The contractor building the mirror built it solid and polished it perfectly... to the wrong shape.
They saved money by not testing it.
That will be ideal as a treatment for vomiting.
If only there was a unified protocol for creating encrypted sessions between systems for all IP packets.

Moore's law is about transistor counts. Adding cores adds transistors.
Moore's law is about cost per transistor whether it is achieved through density or area.
