Dont rely on optical, but you could stuff one in with it.
I would go with something which is at least expected to retain the data that long as a first step. Perhaps a hard disk of some kind.
Then choose your interface, you might choose one with multiple interface types, or just go USB, Of course most machines will not have USB in 25 years ( but they might ), but you should still be able to adapt it up using common off the shelf adapters at that point. The trick is to choose something common right now, so common that it will still be a bit of a problem in 25 years. I would think USB is your closest fit. I would stake the project on that assumption if it were me.
Dont store it with a battery, good chance it will do bad things to you, and the battery will be useless in 25 years anyhow ( so iPods are out ).
Wrap it up in Saran Wrap with a packet of silica gel, and then drop that in some luke warm wax to put a nice thick seal on it.
In 25 years just break the wax and it will still be dry and clean. Then your off to 7-11 to hit the BestBuy vending machine to get your USB to PlasmaWire(tm) adapter.
The cable card system DOES work, I am using it now. However I was forced to rent a cable box as a basic requirement for getting premium services in addition to the cable cards. I only plugged it in once, and as it turns out, the thing is broken. It sits in my closet, sipping up $15 a month out of my wallet.
And yes I have performed an upgrade on my TV, if by upgrade you mean firmware ( this is slashdot, right? ).
As far as taxing everyone to spread the cost of the boxes ( by way of forcing everyone to get one ), it would seem like TW could save $400 by not forcing me to stash on in my closet and maybe charge everyone a bit less.
You guys pay $400 for a cable box? Seems a bit stiff considering the price of a tivo. Maybe this is exactly what I am talking about.
As far as an open platform not being a sustainable business model, how would we know? I mean, TW did force me to get that cable box right? Seems like cable companies are not giving CableCard a fair shake on purpose. If it were not for FCC mandating it, TW would not support it at all ( they barely do now ). I wonder why? I lied, I don't wonder much at all.
That is false. Explain how logic can explain the right to free speech, to pick an example. Without proof, I'd be hard-pressed to believe that such rights are anything other than axioms.
I get right on that, as soon as you explain how logic can explain whatever it is you just said.
Oh hell, lets give it a try.
1) No one has been able to shut me up yet, therefore I may have a right to free speech.
2) All the other kids are doing it, and given #1 above, I assume I have a right to free speech
Where was it said someone needed proof to apply logic or that we could not derive something logically without proof. I say I can. Can you prove me wrong? Logically? I just do not think what he said was false, though I may be a little biased since privately, I do tend to believe in God when he gives me stuff.
Only about 600ms (RT) of that is due to the SAT link, the rest is probably large queue depths at both ground sites, your terminal and the gateway, or it could be slot timing latency in there as well. At 700ms (RT), voip is still usable since its really 350ms each direction. Most cell to cell links will give you something like 250ms-300ms per direction, you get used to it.
Yay, some quotes from some Google guy. Nothing technical.
First, you can bet your ass this is pretty damned hard not to get false positives, however I will admit before someone does it for me that the collective mind of Google is much smarter than I. I will not say it cannot be done. Its just unlikely ( still nothing technical ).
I work for a company that provides software ( and firmware ) for the largest ( physically, and capacity wise ) commercial satellite in the world. It only moves IP packets ( plus meta ). I am not a sales person, I design, prototype, sometimes build the software that controls the flows. I certainly maintain a heavy hand in in it all technically, I have nothing to do with service level policies, other than providing feasible solutions.I feel somewhat qualified to tell you strait up that this 'net neutrality' thing is both a bunch of bullshit and that its prompted by "Board Room" level jealousy of profits. Before I get into the heavy of it I want to tell you that I feel that if you buy 1mbps you should get 1mbps. None of this "until you reach 15GB" crap... unless thats what you paid for.Unlimited should be without qualification unless they qualify it up front ( meaning its not "unlimited" ). Truth in advertising is the key here. But on the other hand, you want your VOIP calls to be clear, you want your game session to be non-choppy. You want your web pages to take temporary priority over your FTP session, oh yes you do. Likewise, you do not want the guy in the next cubicle to take up all of available bandwidth downloading [insert something big] over P2P or whatever you kids do these days to defeat fairness controls.Some of the legislation put forth in the name of neutrality would make it illegal for me to make it fair. When I first got into this business it was common practice to oversell by five times, I recently have had documents cross my desk that suggest it is common practice to sell it 80 times over. Given that providers like TimeWarner want to jack the max speed to 15mb for an extra 5 bucks, its no wonder that they then want to put into place caps on usage ( they didn't mean you should use it ).
Oh wait, we were talking about neutrality. Right. So anyhow, you have groups trying to prioritize traffic, and then you have groups trying to tell the googles and the ebays in the world that they need to pony up some cash if they want fair access to the customers. This has nothing to do with QoS, this is extortion. We already have laws that cover this. Google is taking the wrong tact in the sense that they are trying to rally people behind them in demanding fair access, and I think they should be pressing criminal charges.
Do not get me wrong, my satellite covers a large portion of Asia, it has nothing to do with what is being proposed right here with Net Neutrality, other than the fact that my Internet is getting messed with by largish companies and politicians that do not know much about the problems.
Please... understand what you are proposing before you start pushing the badwagon.
I want to be clear, I feel that legislated "Net Neutrality" is bad, it will not work out well. I feel that there are plenty of laws in place that should incarcerate corporations ( if only we could ) for the obvious laws they are breaking by trying to force popular internet sites to pay them for access to customers that are already paying them. I would like to get into honesty in advertising, and why its really up to you guys to fix this, but it would rather go in a book for I am long winded. Really guys and gals, we need some perspective on this, no one wants our internet messed with like this and if you leave it up to the corps and the elected, its going to get messed up. I am not sure what you expect to gain by this, but I am sure what you end up with is a pile of crap if it continues for too long. Please, we can apply laws that have been enforced for decades to cover this, its not mystery to us, its time we demystify it to everyone else.
P.S. Isnt the posting editing window really small now?
I am guessing he is not currently understanding the subtly of carrying a heavy stick. Maybe they simply did not need a lot of vowels to be well understood.
Besides, I will believe it when the same technology can be used to figure out what Ozzie is saying. I bet the results are nearly identical.
This quietly introduced feature shows a level of aggressivity that is unparalleled and supertastic in scale! Bestbuy will find it difficult to compete at the same level as Google and an official documented protest is expected to be filed due to the fact this feature encourages users to explore alternatives which will be detrimental to the outlets bottom line. There has been comments made suggesting the FTC may investigate Googles practices for being anti-competitive but there is a competing rumor that that would be just silly and something akin to an oxymoron. The prevailing opinion is that people are just crying over a pretty nifty feature as per usual, but the individuals who share that opinion are those that would not bother to document anything like that so its currently unmeasurable making the exact aggressiveness hard to calculate ( but we are pretty sure we don't have an algorithm to contain it )
Thanks for pointing out said feature though, I appreciate it, it brightened my morning a little bit.
Dark matter being that which is mostly having the definition that it is undefined, with the expectation that it is something new or something known with an unproven ( debated ) property of gravity, such as neutrinos. Its not necessarily wholly comprised of something unseen, and could be in fact made up of many different particle types having gravity/mass/weight. That is, assuming its not a gross mistake.
I saw a an article a magazine (Popular Mechanics?) in '86 that interviewed Moller and showed pictures and such, went into detail about his work in the previous 10 years to develop an engine for the Moller series ('Moller 400' was the main one, there was a smaller craft, maybe the 'Moller 200'?). The origninal article had more background and detail, but this could easily pass as an abreviated version of it. And yes, they were hoping to get the Moller 400 into production within the next few years -- that would put it about '89. Despite the specifications, I would say that the M400 is very slowly going nowhere.
Not directly, however the dumb radiates from them in a maner that contaminates, you may not even realize you have been infected till your necks in a noose. So, yes, your parents were right.

Anyhow, thats how I would do it.

Stop drinking the CoolAid, its not good for you.
Technically the spinner is a munition, developed specifically for US intelligence.
So where are the guidelines for for sending a submission?
If you transpose "data cloud" with "data service" or "data servers" would you then have a redundancy solution?

Its not very good, it did not compile at all under cygwin.
Sorry, the universe is not in human readable code and must be reverse engineered, so no open source designation for it.

I tried this at your suggestion and it did not seem to work as you described. In fact burning my $20 bill only made my other $20 bill more lonely.
I am not supposed to say anything however that's our intelligence test.
You can self check your work.
