True to a point, but if they receive in bitcoin and convert to Yuan directly to pay their suppliers then they may save a load in exchange and bank fees.
In its landmark 5-4 decision in the case of Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, the U.S. Supreme Court tossed out years of campaign finance law by ruling that corporations and labor unions have the same First Amendment freedom of speech rights as individuals in using their funds to support or oppose candidates for election. In his dissenting opinion, Justice John Paul Stevens raised an interesting, if somewhat sarcastic question: does this mean corporations can vote now? "Under the majority's view, I suppose it may be a First Amendment problem that corporations are not permitted to vote, given that voting is, among other things, a form of speech," wrote Justice Stevens.
So if someone were to open a million numbered companies, then is each one like a little slave baby that has all the rights of a person, but not the self determination?
Don't know about where you live, but around here electricity is separate from rent. The landlord has not motive to upgrade electric equipment unless it is malfunctioning.
There are already microwave transmitters that can fry a car's control system at range (such as the one promoted by SAVELEC). This should be the preferred method. The police should be *so sure* that the driver is a criminal that they're willing to stake a lawsuit on physically destroying a car's control system. That should be the bar.
I'd never thought of it that way, but I completely agree. That really should be the bar. That said, there should be a system by which an officer could notify the occupants of the car that they should immediately pull over and increases the ease of doing so (big red button on the display), or gives a way(phone/radio?) to explain why they wont (on way to hospital with critically injured child?).
I'm concerned about the environment, but it is really a given that over time I'll use more electricity. Technology may get more energy efficient, but we will get more things that demand that energy. I'm under no illusion that I'll be able to meaningfully lower my emissions more then trying to fix the big things, like getting an electric car and upgrading my AC to a more energy efficient model. Everything else is just a drop in the bucket. Around here the pollution mainly comes from cars and trucks that are far out of repair and coal power plants. The only other thing we can do is get private solar power. So my part will be to get an electric car and solar panels, but those are still a couple years away for me for economic reasons. The sooner they are more affordable and have longer range, the sooner I'll be able to take advantage of those technologies. Or I need to get a raise;)
Pretty easy: Convert request password variable to hash Check password hash agains't DB If success, check request password variable against current standard password strength rules. If fails, expire the password and force password reset prior to login.
No need to store the password, just have to expire it on the next login if there is trouble.
As for taking back IPv4 addresses, that has to be the most ludicrous thing I have heard.
Personally, I think it is a great idea. Leave ISPs enough that all their static IP customers can have an IP address, but otherwise take away all dynamic IPv4 addresses. Leave IPv4 addresses for the server/commercial community for now, and make sure IPv6->IPv4 tunnelling is available. Once all the customers are on IPv6, then it makes economic sense for commercial users to switch/go dual stack. Trying to get companies to shell out money for a service their customers can't even connect to is just going to make this even slower and more painful.
I think forcing somebody's hand is the only way to really get the ball moving at a reasonable rate.

I was ->.- this close to modding you a troll just for the above statement... But then I decided to burn my ability to mod on this article... :P
Yeah, I honestly thought this was what mechanical turk was for....

Sorry buddy, but moving data around internationally can cost as little at $0.

I can just feel it now, my job prospects dwindling in the next 10 years. Well gotta start working on plan B.
How can anyone still be surprised?

Miss the /sarcasm tag and I'm flamebait. Moderators missing a sense of humour.
But with the Pebble any question of aesthetic elegance goes right out the window. It's an ugly hunk of plastic. It will not impress anyone.
Just saw the Pebble Steal, sorry, Steel online. Honestly doesn't look so bad...
Yes! Lets make a giant 1000ft tall bird shredder! We might get some food out of it too >:)
