Yep. From the FAQ section of Finisar's website:
Where does Finisar operate and how many employees does Finisar have?
Finisar's corporate headquarters is located in Sunnyvale, CA, while its primary manufacturing facilities are located in Ipoh, Malaysia, Shanghai, China, and Wuxi, China. Finisar fabricates its VCSEL lasers for datacom applications in Allen, TX, operates a fab in Fremont, CA for making DFB and FP lasers for longer distance datacom and telecom applications, and operates a tunable laser fab in Jarfalla, Sweden used primarily in our tunable XFP transceivers, primarily for telecom applications. The Company also has manufacturing and R&D facilities in Horsham, PA (USA) and as well as Australia, Germany, Korea, and Singapore. Finisar employs approximately 13,000 employees worldwide.
So the Apple products are probably made in the primary facilities in Malaysia and China.
I understand the summary but I can't figure out what the headline is trying to say. Anyone got any ideas? "Location Finds Bluetooth, Ultra-Wideband"
Sadly, that's the headline of the article itself, as well. The subtitle is "Bluetooth waits for profiles, UWB gears up for smartphones". From what I can tell it means that Bluetooth and UWB can now be used to determine location. I think the author was trying to be clever?
Oh I see. I just did it. Apparently Vulkan is a manufacturer of rubber products. Valve is something used to adjust waterflow. Gallium3D is a new chip layering technique and Mesa is a city in Arizona. So apparently Intel is creating valves with rubber membranes on their new chips for watercooling in Arizona? Couldn't you have just put that in the summary? After all, you submitted this, right?
Don't forget that it is also apparently a government contract doing work for the department of Housing and Urban Development.
I want to know why the chemtrails don't affect the politicians and government officials who are spraying them.
Government officials aren't spraying the chemtrails, they're loaded onto commercial planes. But they give inoculations to politicians and the people read into the program like the pilots and the people who load the chemicals onto the plane to keep them safe. As bad as they are dispersed, those chemicals can be really dangerous when they are concentrated. I should know, I used to work on the ramp of a major airport and-hold on, there are some guys in dark suits at my door......
However it is assumed that such persons are not armed. It is a point of contention whether Article Four covers anyone who is an armed participant in a conflict but is not an agent of a recognized government.
How do you square that with nations (Well, nation) where firearm ownership is a constitutional right? Does that mean that anyone invading this country basically has carte blanche to put bullets into anyone they see? Because I might be an armed participant, and that's a really convenient excuse. Not that I expect to be invaded any time soon, but I do live on the California coast... so if it happens, it's probably happening here first:p
The keyword in the post is participant. Since history has shown repeatedly that summary, retaliatory, or mass execution, while having the goal of pacifying an occupied territory, usually have the opposite effect of galvanizing resistance. So, if the invading party intends to occupy an area, the logical course of action would be to require local civilians to turn over any privately held weapons and subject those not complying with detention or, if caught in an offensive or subversive act while armed, subject them to battlefield rules-namely, they are going to get shot at. By participating in a hostile act the civilian has given up any protection that would normally have been accorded to them. That's best case though. If the invading force has no plans to occupy, or simply doesn't care, they'll kill anyone and everyone for any or no reason.
Wonder if this is an attempt by someone who has control of a significant but non-majority amount of the transaction pool to artificially reduce the pool size to allow them to do a 51% attack? I'm not familiar with that side of Bitcoin or it's mechanisms so not sure if that is viable or even possible.
Until Netflix bought ABQ studios, they had no production facilities and were not a production studio.
Frontier Airlines only owns 5 of the roughly 60 aircraft in their fleet. If it weren't for those 5, would you argue that they aren't an airline because they don't own any planes?
It's too expensive, both in time and money, for HR or hiring managers to test every single applicant to assess their skill level. Much easier and quicker to use education as a proxy or filter, then, if testing is necessary, you are only testing the skills of a few people.
It is the first time in history that a non-studio has been granted entry.
According to Wikipedia, Netflix has created well over 300 programs/series (stopped counting at 300 and still had a ways to go) and over 200 films. Tell me again how they aren't a studio at this point?
The Florida turnpike is a toll. Ga had 400, but they removed the toll a few years back. Now they are building variable toll express lanes on 85, 75, 575, and eventually 285. The 85 toll can get crazy expensive, but the 75/575 toll is fairly reasonable
I I'd guestimate the size of the rock making that spot in the photo is roughly 100 feet across.
According to TFA, the current estimate is that the rock was roughly the size of a football and weighed 2 kilograms. It's not specified if they mean the round-type football or the American version (sorry to those down under, but it's probably safe to rule out a reference to an Aussie-rules football).
How much will it cost to launch the needed starter cell culture into space, presumably have someone up their manning it (even if mostly automated), return it from space...etc.
SpaceX plans to eventually get costs down to $1700 per kg with the Falcon Heavy. I could almost see the first privately (or semi-privately)owned space station being one where companies can rent research/production space and the station operator has techs up there to run the experiments/production facilities, maintain the station, etc. While it could be expensive, it probably wouldn't be prohibitively so. Especially considering you would be making (hopefully) rejection-proof, lifesaving replacement organs.
Solo felt like they were trying to make even M Night Shyamalan go "enough with the 'twists', dammit!". Oh, the one bad guy is actually a woman. His friend is really a bad guy. His love interest is good, just pretending to be bad, is good again but nope, still bad.
$20? Where the fuck do you live? California is several hundred dollars (goes down the older your car is), and hell even Illinois is $100 for a renewal.
GA. $20-25 for a standard tag plus the emissions charge. Specialty tags cost more. Does Cali add taxes every year?
In Belgium you get your license plate once. You take them with you when you get a new car. When you do not need them, you bring em back i.e. drop them off at the post office.
In the US you keep the plate but have to renew the registration every year. Usually costs about $20-25, plus tack on another $20 for yearly required emissions. So, even at $50 a year for registration the basic plate would take 10 years before the purchase price is paid off. Now, what are the odds that an electronic plate will last 10 years without damage/needing to be replaced/etc?
So you cannot calculate where a certain point on a rotating earth will be on a certain date
Yes, you can.
and aim a signal at it?
With existing technology and knowledge of physics, no. As far as I am aware there is nothing that could maintain a pinpoint directional beam over interstellar distances. Anything "aimed" at that precise point would be indistinguishable from something "aimed" anywhere else in the solar system.
You are correct of course, sir. Earth MUST be the only inhabited planet with intelligent life in the huge motherfucking universe we exist in. The radio signals clearly came from a farting Pulsar. The pulsar had too much Diet Coke with the burger and fries.
I think you are putting words in 110010001000's mouth. He didn't say anything about there not being aliens. I think it's more that he is suggesting that if you are getting archeological/cosmological information from Anonymous in a random youtube video, you might as well be getting that info from this guy.
Explain - with mathematical proof please - the repeating radio signals from space that are being reported everywhere. Go on. Explain them right under this post, Mr. I-Know-Everything!

Glad to help
What is Vulkan, what is Valve and what is Gallium3D and what is Mesa? Aside from those questions, I loved the summary.
A Roman god and a fictional race/language, a mechanism to open/close a pipe, the chemical element Ga(the 3D seems redundant though as there aren't any 3D elements), and a geological formation-basically a mountain with a flat top.

Is there gonna bee anything left of slashdot?
Sure. You'll have one final post saying goodbye and that slashdot is done, then a dupe of that post 2 hours later.

Not everywhere. In some places, the vehicle keeps the plate as it is transferred from owner to owner.
Well, I meant you aren't getting a new plate every year, you are just paying every year for the registration for the plate.

The Bugs are still bracketing Earth. If there's another one that passes to the other side, then we are in trouble and they know where we are.
