Of course, the alternative is that they release all of the data they collect, thereby publishing the public movements of everyone in LA to anyone with nefarious purposes.
Not storing the data is of course out of the question.
I'm sitting in Chicago's O'Hare airport right now, and we could use a coyote. I'm watching a mouse run around the empty first class lounge. TSA didn't touch my junk.
My absolutely puny hardware (all 5+ years old, or netbooks) does not experience this problem at all running different releases of Ubuntu. I did notice that Transmission sometimes chewed up too much processor when I had 10+ torrents going, but my bulk drive was NTFS. After I formatted it to ext4, even that went away. I routinely copy multiple GB files intra-drive, inter-drive, and intranetwork while browsing, youtubing, etc.
Maybe you're using an NTFS filesystem that isn't as efficient?
Again, my hardware is majorly obsolete. My only "multicore" setup is on a hyperthreading Atom.
One day, in the not so distant past, I had a PS3 that has Other OS and could play games online.
Then, Sony made me choose. This made me sad, because I liked them both. Today's news made me sadder, because it seems the reason that I had to choose, was moot.
Honestly, this is why I first installed Ubuntu on my old IBM laptop. As the windows installs went down, the linux installs went up. Linux spread through my whole family this way; First me and my wife, then my brothers, then my mother-in-law.
I wouldn't accept this either. These high frequency trading algorithms serve no market purpose except fleecing the little guy. The fact that the algorithm is making so much money would make me sick too.
Why should NBC strip the captioning data that is already encoded in their OTA broadcasts when streaming it over the internet?
If the data is already available, they should be required to display it. IMO, NBC's refusal to display this data, when they already have exhibited the capability to do so, seems to be a deliberate middle finger to the hard of hearing.
Video that is streamed over the internet, that would be required to have closed captions if transmitted over the airwaves, should be required to transmit those captions.
Eg, NBC captions all (or almost all) of their content when broadcast, but only a limited selection of NBC content is captioned on hulu.com.
Even worse, Netflix (www.netflix.com) transmits content that almost universally has closed captioning data available, but transmits none of it when internet streaming.
With a 20 ms period, the frequency (f = 1/T) is 50 Hz.
You seem to be also confused about the units. 1 second = 1 second. Once per second is 1 Hz. 1 second = 1000 milliseconds (ms). Once per ms is 1000 Hz or 1 kHz. 1 millisecond = 1000 microseconds (us). Once per us is 1000000 Hz or 1 MHz. 1 microsecond = 1000 nanoseconds (ns). Once per ns is 1000000000 Hz or 1GHz.
The difference is due process of law, with oversight and consent of the people, versus totalitarian law.
FTFA:
"We scrutinise each one to ensure that it adheres to both the letter and the spirit of the law before complying, and do our best to notify the subject named in any such requests to give them the opportunity to object."
One can hardly expect Google to do much more than that, beyond hiring their own mercenary army to keep law enforcement out of your free web-hosted email account.
It's holding my ability to play games online in exchange for my ability to boot into linux and make this reply.
I carefully considered the meaning of the word, and I'm pretty sure that it applies in the literal sense (although not perhaps in the popular vernacular).
I can't think of a better case for a class action lawsuit. They are extorting us out of features that we paid for. I bought this version of PS3 for several reasons, installing an alternative OS was high among them.
That is the exact opposite of what he says. He says that reencoding the entire library would be time and cost prohibitive, as well as angering a lot of non-hearing-impaired english speakers. As a result, they are working on laying a secondary stream that contains only the subtitles over the video stream. He also says that they looked around for existing tech to do this, and found nothing.
Did you even read it, or did you just skim over it because you are pissed off?
What he says is FUD. The reason he says that entire thing is to try and confuse people out of the real issue. Of course reencoding the entire library would be cost prohibitive and expensive. Of course doing it that way would annoy the rest of the population. Of course, that is not the way that captions are done, so his entire point is moot. If the captions were encoded along with the video stream, then they would be subject to compression artifacts and buffering issues and all sorts of other problems. No other captioning technology works that way. You simply read the time encoded text file and display the text on the screen at the appropriate time in the movie. It's easy, most everyone does it. He hasn't found the technology available for what he describes because that's not the way it's done. If he doesn't know that, it's because he hasn't researched the issue beyond a 5 minute conversation with someone who has.
In the tech demo SDK for silverlight there is an example for placing text on top of video. I don't need to submit any grand idea to them. Netflix is not an Open Source company, and as such is not looking for code submissions.
Gee thanks. It's not like I haven't already researched the issue. If you read that post, it's a bunch of nonsense gobbleygook and FUD that works out to, we don't want to do it.
He says they would have to reencode the entire library with subtitles enabled in order to stream the captions. This is of course BS because the captions are not video data and do not need to be encoded.
He says that they are developing special display technology that would display the text as a separate stream in silverlight. Again FUD, I have written programs that display text in silverlight. It's quite easy, as you would expect.
The data for all of the captions for a movie is usually around 100 KB and is freely available for use on nearly every dvd.
The bottom line is that they do not care to have their programmers waste even 10 minutes on the Deaf community

You're not really wrong, but your writing style, along with your lack of punctuation and spelling; make you seem like a crazy person too.
Seems like many jobs that are "IT" are not really. I can't find anything that says a single development job was lost.

Pithy.

I chose. It still sucked.
What is pimiping?
That is a pretty slick piece of kit. Did it work in linux without too much fuss?
Honestly, this is why I first installed Ubuntu on my old IBM laptop. As the windows installs went down, the linux installs went up. Linux spread through my whole family this way; First me and my wife, then my brothers, then my mother-in-law.
Worked fine in Chromium, with moonlight 2.3. No spoofing required.
The hatred for silverlight seems irrational, as most of us also have the adobe flash plugins installed too.

The entire lot of them should be unemployed.

Me too. This is the exact setup I use at home.

Huzzah! Now if we can just get subtitling/captioning on Netflix streams, the net will be accessible to the Deaf again.
Do you see the part of your post that concerns theft?
Using an unsecured wifi is more like depositing mail in their unlocked mailbox to be picked up by the postman. (Not stealing their mail)
This.
Accurate submeter 3D positioning is quite hard.

It's been three years. I'd say you've had it for a while.
