Its not a business decision, its a technical one... Unfortunately, the DOCSIS protocol for cable modem networks specifies a different method of reserving channels for upload than download.
Downloads typically are reserved a 6 MHz band for each subscriber, while uploads share a 24 MHz band for the whole neighborhood. This is due to two factors: the frequencies used... (high-pass filters upstream, low-pass filters downstream)...and the encoding method used (typical QPSK-256 downstream and QAM-16 upstream)
Just thought I'd share the one thing I'm actually good at.:-)
if a bank discloses the financial information of its clients voluntarily or involuntarily, it is liable under the Graham-Leech-Bliley act congress passed about 2 years ago. The concept was to restrict the ways information the bank held could be used, because of the material loss of privacy suffered by its customers. Just because, in this case, the party the information is being disclosed to is the government, why should this skirt that law?
Its issues like this that are (were) at the heart of the governments requirement that a Judge be involved in awarding these warrents. Now that the process has been short-circuited, the process has lost a very valuable legal perspective gained by the several years each federal judge works through to be appointed.
I can understand a fixed, antenna-extended AP reaching 1400' in altitude, but laptops/desktops set to peer mode? you'd think even the ceilings/roofs of the buildings would filter that signal right out since the strength just wouldn't be there.
Probably just bundled cables braided together multiple times to an overall width of 1.5m. I did some research on this some time ago, and they originally start with.05m cables which are braided together in bulks of (example, not sure of number) 12 or so. Several of those bundles are braided together in groups of (again, example..) 6. Those are belted together & sheathed, which produces 1.5m diameter
The article which was linked to indicated the re-charging process uses natural gas. My chemistry's quite rusty, but I believe its CH4. No Sulfer, no Nitrogen. This means no NOx or SOx. CO2 might still be a problem, but a containable one since it occurs naturally much more than does the acid rain caused by noxious gases produced by internal comubstion engines.
Why do we need to bring religion into it?
Simply, children need better parents... these parents (who need the help of religion, to be sure) need to raise their children from the time they have them to the time they leave their house. They need to instill VALUES. It doesn't take a village to raise a child, it takes committed parents. And that's all it should take.
Bad parents shouldn't blame others for THEIR mistakes.
the likes of Joe Leiberman gets up in the LA Arena, and blasts Hollywood for 'inciting so much violence against America' and all of you clap, like trained seals.
but some stupid theoretical conversation sparks up, and you're off and running about how 'the republicans will censor it. and censor they will'
what a crock of shit. blast Ashcroft as you will, at least Bushy-baby didn't pick someone stupid enough to commit political suicide by mentioning how 'healthy masturbation can be'
that honor is reserved for clinton.
stick to technology, leave the role of liberal soap-box to salon.com
Why does it seem like everything I read on./ thats political seems to be posted by Dick Gepheardt?
This "we're trying to get along but those darned republicans make it so hard, mom!" attitude I read here can get a bit old, a bit quickly.
Am I wrong in thinking there a general democratic mindset here?
That seems quite amazing to me, considering I've always thought of./ readers as people who worked hard to get where they were. I know I have. I want whats mine & the lesser government, the better. Hence, the vote for W. Why do I seem the minority here?
The only time I touch Salon ("touched" is more appropriate now) is when/. linked to them. I read their tech/space stories, and that was about as much good as they did for me.

I'd be far more worried about malcode (virii, worms, etc) taking hold in the cross-platform evironment the parent mentions than worrying about games.

DEAD WRONG.

Wow! surprising.
While this is a good point, I'm still left asking "So what?"
The defense could just as easily called him as a witness for live statements, as easily as the prosecution played a tape of him.
What privelege was lost by the prosecution playing a tape?

I personally liked how W. handled the whole Afghan issue... "if they want to call us Imperialist dogs, then thats what we'll be!"
Hello Afghanistan, we're going to mold you into a country whose existence makes our country's existence safer.
whoot!

I say, bring it on!
