If you consider most people are probably getting a speed nearer 25mb/s for their DSL and 100-200mb/s for their home wifi, then 6Gb/s is still pretty impressive over that distance, even if it is not GB/s. This could be really good for a mesh network, where you could be sharing videos with neighbours in a rural community.
Maybe all defence lawyers should ask the opening question whether any surveillance device was used without a court order, during the investigation? Get the illegal data tossed out frequently enough, that maybe the cops will consider use of a court order?
And... as a followup to my post. If you get suicidal over online crap. You need to get off the internet and go outside to play.
Yup.
This is the challenge of putting anything out to the public, since it becomes a form of public domain. Even if the copyright technically belongs to a small group, the stake holders are in the millions and the unofficial armchair committee huge. Sometimes the best thing is to know when you need to agree to differ and walk away from the shitfest. It is not always easy, but the short term pain may make the long term so much better.
You can just not check your e-mail all the time after hours... Even turn off the mail app on your phone. (Some phones you can schedule this!) But, no... We must protect people too stupid to stop working when they are home...
In a healthy workplace you can, but sometimes you have workaholic bosses or colleagues who expect the same from you. Many people want to be good team players, but don't know how to push back when it starts depressing them.
Companies will probably find ways around this, such as paying people less and paying them the difference for being on-call?
Some is available. But keep in mind that "civilian" space programs are usually thinly disguised military projects, so much of what's really happening is not made public.
Thanks for the link. What you say makes sense, though I though I would ask anyhow, since there is likely a shift between what is considered knowledge limited to military use?
Just looked and the CA is the US government and it is valid until 2018. This is likely valid, just not a certificate authority most browsers have by default?
Space is dead. It's a radiation-blasted vacuum. Nobody is going to live there. Ever. Get over it, Space Nutters. We should kill all astrophysicists and burn all scifi books. Like in Europe.
Europe got bored of that and the sport is now found elsewhere in the world. I for one welcome space nutters, since they give us something else to talk about:) I would burn the trolls, but not considering myself a violent person will accepting making a sport of them.
If the satellite is being designed and built by a government organisation, in the name of the advancement of human knowledge, should we be encouraging the software to be open source? Have there been examples of such initiatives?
I am new to this and I have seen a fair few "systemd is 3vil" posts, but with little indication as to why people dislike it, compared to the alternatives? Just to be clear I don't have a position here, rather I am looking for some insight.
This time they are simply telling cable companies to ditch the cable box. How they do that is up to them. Android TV and Apple TV can easily fit the role.
Highest priority: Chromecast Second highest priority: Different device
IFTTT is a messy, bloated way of doing the simplest of simple things. It's not surprising that Google's networking device uses it instead of regular, tried-and-true QoS and other features.
Possibly, but it allows people who wouldn't normally be programming to create solutions based on various services.
"Wah, it is too expensive. I'll just shoplift it." Same type of thing.
How do you shoplift something that isn't on the shelf or isn't being made available to you? This more akin to watching a football match from outside the stadium, because they wouldn't let you in, even with you indicating you would pay. You get to watch the match, but the stadium doesn't get to make money from your viewership.
While Nintendo certainly needs to step up its act when it comes to the hardware, the software and the developer support needs to improve. The competition these days are Sony and Microsoft, but also Google and Apple. The former because of the the PS4 and Xbox One and the latter because of Android and iOS. They need to take the best elements of current consoles approaches and also the best elements of current mobile platforms.
Nintendo has tried making kids the focus and in doing so handicapped features such as chat. At the same time the OS needed the internet, but didn't capitalise on the internet. What I am thinking here are basics for any modern operating system, such as network time (you still had to do it by hand), IPv6 support (though, it really didn't hurt them in this cycle).
Nintendo needs to provide a developer program that is a little more open to indie and amateur, in the same way the mobile platforms do today. Sure, they can offer an extended offering to the big players, but making it easier to build a knowledge base and bring on new start-ups I believe would be an asset.
This isn't experimental. Electronic companies have been doing this for decades! Apple, like normal, are last to the table and pretend they're the first to come up with the idea. People like you fall for it every single time. What a bizarre world you must live in.
-citation needed-
My understanding was that the companies were only doing this because government regulation in certain countries required them to. I would be interested in some sources to indicate who is recycling and since when. Promises that they are going to do something doesn't count.
In an increasing number of cases cable is just IPTV, so there should be no need for a special cable box. Just provide an app for Android TV, Apple TV or any mobile device in the home. In the meantime I am using over the air, because everything else has more advertising than I should be paying a cable fee for.
I am on a Mac and rarely find myself using Quicktime. It had its day, but the MPEG4 container has for the most-part taken its place. The Quicktime player is even less used. Its a shame clients/partners haven't made the shift.
There are indeed edge cases, like when Apple uses an atom that the MPEG4 specification doesn't yet support, such as TimedMetadata.
BTW For the most part, converting a recent.mov to an.mp4 is as simple as specifying ffmpeg with 'copy' for vcodec and acodec, since it has the benefit of simply copying the audio and video atoms, rather than transcoding them.
I suppose this is the challenge of point+accuracy results where accuracy is ignored. I suppose the only other alternative is to return bounding boxes, beyond a certain accuracy?
BTW to be pedantic these are map coordinates, not GPS coordinates. GPS is but one method of acquiring geographic coordinates. In terms of Satellites there is also GLONASS and the up and coming Gailileo.

Or maybe gender neutral? Never understood why single occupancy bathrooms even need a gender assignation?
Or just take the Firefox advanced mode which is just a bunch of properties or allow it via an extension? Now about the address bar... ;)

Don't worry someone will come from the future and destroy them, to prevent a war that hasn't yet taken place.
This is why I was asking here. Sure I have been marked as a flamebait, since I apparently bothered some people, but the explanations above make sense.

I am wondering how long before we have access to full prosthetic bodies ... anyone who has seen Ghost in the Shell will know about this :)

My ears aren't digital, so there is still a need for an analogue signal that can be tapped into.

Just curious, but is it still cheaper once shipping to countries where manufacturing takes place is factored in?

What's wrong with NaN? Having a value in the range of valid data is not the right way to indicate 'value not found'.
