The mesh will never happen. It's a chicken-egg thing. Going point-to-point is too pricey, broadcast has crappy distance, and who get's to pay for the intercity links?
Hummm I tend to recall something called FidoNet which existed, a little over one hundred years ago. It was kind of like a mesh network but wasn't a real time network due to cost. Perhaps we will need to return to our roots for the answer. alas it was so long ago it might be hard to track down those answers.
I am self employed so my situation is different than most people. The information on the chamber of commerce provided plans is very informative and I will look into it here in NC. I have a personal blue cross plan and they will not allow any modifications to it now that I'm not 100% perfect like I was before. Also they are doing some very odd ball stuff such as requiring me to try two other medications and then get a note from my DR every year before they will cover certain drugs. I find that to be very redundant and very unjust. They have no business telling me which drugs my doctor has to proscribe let alone forcing him to write a letter each year if those other drugs don't cut it.
To elaborate a little more on that, it's sort of like a bank having to bank a certain amount of money in the federal reserve except the difference here is bonds, interest bearing accounts and other tools deemed to be safe. IF the Insurance company lowered it's risk pool, then it doesn't need to place as much into those investments and can therefore go heavier into other areas which would likely pay out much more then the costs of your condition.
I understand how it's suppose to work but I also know that the trend in management has shifted toward short term gain over long term survival so I wonder what is really going on.
Yes I agree that politicians are not equipped to create working business model's for anything and what we will end up with will be crap. I have no faith in government reform and I no longer have any faith in big business doing what it needs to in order to even survive. It seems that the people running things have realized they don't have to work hard for 20 years when they can rape the consumer and burn the corporation to the ground and make the same amount of wealth in only a couple years time with no legal trouble.
My wife works for the state as a teacher. Her job was on the chopping block last year and we just got lucky which is why I will remain with what I got. It's rather sad when a state chooses to cut important things like education, fire and police services. Once again a sign of what is coming in our country just like with what has happened in business management.
The level of short sightedness being displayed scares the crap out of me.
Yeah and the only thing that makes it suck even more are glib asshats like you who think the guy was a troll for posting a personal story. The cynicism of some of the comments I read on this site is amazing at times.
It was posted by anonymous, Cynicism is required. If the person had taken the 12.5 seconds required to create an account I would not have questioned it at all. But nice flamebait, try again...
What the hell is that cooper sphere in the background? It looks like something designed by a mad man from the 1800's...
I was also disappointed that the real Half Life Freeman wasn't gimp'ed into those pictures. But I guess they really don't want to have their upstream provider shutdown the proton stream to their fancy collider for copyright theft and high treason.
My grandfather was in Korea, and he made what's perhaps the most ultimate sacrifice short of his life: his genitals.
Um... OK, I give up. How?
A Korean whore kicked his grandfather in the nuts because he wasn't a big tipper... Honestly, who the fuck really cares exactly how or even if it and your post are nothing more than trolls (Which is my guess). The fact remains that people come back from war missing body parts all the time. Maybe it was a shell that went off, a landmine or some how a bullet. Perhaps a spider or snake bite or even some horrible VD. All of these things could happen and I'm sure most have happened. I don't think most men are going on Larry King to talk about it so even if it was just a troll message it totally failed because some place there is a grunt missing his pair because he severed his country just like I'm sure their are women now who served that are missing a breast.
War tears up both a persons flesh and their minds. It fucking sucks...
Set our botnet to DDoS mode, target their main servers and transmit our extortion email. Mr Lawyer, load the "DMCA take-down" torpedoes and target their upstream provider (Network Solutions).
Somebody needs to introduce you to some better drugs.
Ahh, I couldn't figure out why I had been modded funny but yes now I see what my subconscious had done there.
However, I hope the general idea of what I was saying doesn't get shrugged off as a total joke as I think it might explain the issue. But yeah I could probably use some better drugs as the ones I'm on now just aren't any fun.
On what authority and why am I accountable to that authority?
On the authority of those with bigger clubs than you whom can kill or imprison you if you don't do as they instruct. Hopefully this authority accounts for a large majority in any society and only makes the bare minimum rules necessary to protect your freedom to do as you like as long as whatever that is doesn't take away another's right to the same. (not currently the case)
but I'm interested in knowing why you think it's a valid rule and not simply a suggestion
I would not wish to be raped therefor I should not rape. The children part isn't really needed honestly. But please see the above part about freedom as well. Rape takes away another's freedom of choice.
This is an imperfect response to your question as there is no perfect answer. But to be honest, none of us are accountable to any authority and we can do whatever we like for as long as we can get away with it. (Hide from those with bigger clubs)
How many bad, naughty and barely illegal video files did this badly behaving school collect about their students,
We will never ever know that as they have had plenty of time to clean up after themselves.
Also from the start they have stated that only two people in IT had access to this spy system. Doesn't that sound a bit funny to the rest of you? Maybe, like they're going to try and blame the IT people for this whole thing? It sure sounds that way to me and it wouldn't be the first time such has happened.
We all should know their full of shit. If you're in IT and have a password and don't give it to your boss they send you to ass-rape prison. I'd cite the story from CA but all of you should already know what I'm talking about.
Please remember this when they arrest those IT people. Lets make sure to support our brothers because it's likely to happen and anyone of us can be next.
Exactly. Even if he was taking pills, there's no way of ascertaining what was in said pills by just looking at a photo
Everyone seems to be forgetting how interrogations work. They showed him the picture and told him they knew it was drugs just to see what his response was. It's standard operating procedure for police, schools, employers, etc...

Damnit! You KIDS GET OFF MY... I mean THE GOVERNMENTS LAWN!
But I run windows??? I never need to press a key to get a kernel panic...
Can I change another key to be the any key? I can never find that darn thing.
You can't find it because it's sold separately. How the heck have you been using your computer all this time without one?
Water-board them until they confess?
damn.... that's a bummer.... anyone remember where I parked the H3?
Hu, that's pretty interesting but what's a nutron star again?
I hear talk on 4chan that he's a witch! Ye best not be speaking with-um again less ye too be dragged before the inquisition!

perhaps this conversation has gone to far and come back around the other side.
Thank you for the long detailed response.

How about some cheap Propecia? I'm tired of paying 3 dollars per pill (per day).
You better hope John Locke doesn't find out what you're doing. He'll fucking kill you...
I though almost every OS could handle multitasking after DOS age
Now now don't talk badly about DOS. It could multitask just fine using DESQview.
kill yourself
Only if I can drag you to hell with me AC.
We all know that's the only way anyone has ever won the game.
