Previously, there was some (sensible) funding, to allow the brightest end of kids to go further, and get degrees - this was good.
Then everyone wanted a degree for their little darlings, so they could be the next head of marketing living in a big house and driving a porsche. So government, who want votes from the idiocracy (yes, thats you, voters) , made a nice big fat slushpool of cash to allow that to happen, at least the degree part. Then the colleges, looking at this slushpool, did what any good red blooded american does, and worked out how to drain it. They did this by making sure that ANY kids, no matter how stupified by their own education system, could get a degree, and therefore contribute to the profitability of the college. They did this by making sure THEY rated as one of the highest 'party colleges', so more kids would want to go there. They did this by getting rid of any teachers who tried to make kids actually learn, and replacing them with teachers who would rubber stamp ANY lesson plan.
So, no kids were left behind - all of them got to be financially drained in return for a piss poor 'education' that would have insulted a first year student 20 year ago..
Everyone carefully ignored the simple economics that cleary showed: 1 - only the top few percent of your kids should EVER go to college - these are the ones who should be creating the new ideas. These people often dont actually make much money - but they tend not to be money focused. 2 - the majority should be going to trade colleges, vocational training, or just getting a damn job. These people actually do the work (often for damn good pay).
But no, the system is now well and truly fucked. Most of the good teachers have either left or been pushed out. Anyone who doesnt get a degree is labeled (and self labels) as a failure before they begin, and so much money is flowing that the powers that be DARE not rock the boat, because $$$$.
What we are seeing now is just the start of the repercussions, sorry.
I find it interesting that Apple phones apparently 'Overheat' according to our unbiased media, yet Samsung phones 'Explode' (often with more words added for even more effect).
No, no bias there, none at all! Nothing to see here! Please move along!
And its the new 'capitalism' in the US, in case you wondered why costs of things a spiraling up, while the cost of such things in China have crashed. They will happily tell you its for your own good. You NEED to be protected from paying value based prices for things, and instead gouged to support 'American Jobs' which are really just a few people getting VERY rich from the difference (because, American base manufacturing? dream on....).
Of course the Chinese dont generally pay a huge office building full of management, marketing, HR, etc - they just have a few people doing actual work. They dont employ a bunch of very expensive people on capitol hill to stuff money into the right critters pockets to protect their positions, either. But no, we still believe its slave labour, and the REAL cost of things is actually this high..
Get with it people, consumerism was used as a weapon again the middle classes. Much the same as low interest rates combined with hidden inflation is being used as a weapon again the middle classes. Your job is to work hard, spend everything, and keep your heads down. Otherwise, you could actually start thinking, and realise that the morons in control are morons, who are only in control because you are playing their game. Stop borrowing. Stop spending on the latest slick marketing compaign that will 'make you a complete person'. Start enjoying the nice things in life that are actually mostly FREE. Turn off the television, stay out of the malls, stop worrying if the neighbor has a newer car or nicer sofa, or newer iphone.
But no, apparently that would 'destroy the economy'. You know why? because the rape of the middle class is whats keeping everyone else going. Sheep to the slaughter.
You realise that they will actually be using it to find out how they can make the device cheaper and therefore optimiser profitability, as in their perfect world all parts fail together about one week past end of warrantee?
I just had the fun of removing the pump on my lg front loader washing machine. They claim it's non serviceable and must be replaced if it leaks. The fact of the matter is that there are readily replaceable o-rings, however lg installs them without any grease, and uses under sized o-rings with almost no compression. Basically designed to fail. The cost of a whole pump? Nicely enough to make it worth considering a new machine instead.. What a coincidence. The cost of a new third party o-ring? 25 cents. Of course this is not just lg. This is all modern manufacturers.
If you think anything other than growth of profitability matters, then you are living in a fantasy land.
IoT is lining up to be the new forced obsolescence. Can you not see manufacturers and governments working together to make it illegal to use devices that don't have current security patches? Don't worry.. They will patch then until end of warrantee.. You will junk them and buy the new 'secure' model like a good little consumer.
Actually, the damage pattern looks almost exactly consistent with a ground impact. It is reasonably clear from the images that the impact came from the front right, not straight on, and any drone moving fast enough to create that impact vector at approach speed would have punched straight through, not made the distributed damage we see - this was quite clearly a low speed impact.
The pilots 'reporting a loud bang' on approach makes it sound like a good dose of arse-covering, something endemic in Africa when costly damage happens.
You will note there is no evidence given of drone remains, etc. Something that would most certainly have been chased down immediately if this was actually a drone strike. A bird strike (which would do less damage that a drone of the size they are claiming) looks like this: http://www.birdstrike.it/birdstrike/file/images/file/2012.06.05_birdstrike.png
Around here, an extra pair of active glasses cost around 5-15% of the cost of the original TV set.. which back then was not cheap. You got one or two sets free, the rest were stupid prices.
And they are of course easily broken, misplaced, etc..
Glasses were bad, but EXPENSIVE glasses were much worse. If they wanted adoption so much, then they should have made the glasses nearly free - would have been cheaper than all the marketing efforts.
More to the point.. Shouldn't they be getting an award for helping the NSA etal in their battle against the global terrorist threat by providing such open access to people's privacy?
After all.. If you have nothing to hide...
Isn't this just a company protectively complying with upcoming surveillance requirements that governments are claiming they need to keep us safe from ourselves?
Isn't any form of privacy protection a form of communism?
Or they can only be given the award in the UK just yet.. Other backwards governments havn't made such positions against their own people official.. Yet..
Uncompressed 4k video takes about 720mbits of bandwidth even to move.. That's in one direction. So double it for real-time processing (in and out).
Care to price up both ends of a low latency 1.5gbit network just to get to your remote 'cloud computing' server?
And then of course you don't need the Mac pro in the first place.. Since a low end machine will do the job as it's just a display server.
So. No. You going have a clue.
The only reason for such workstation machines is heavy local work, and the Mac pro has been so far behind the pack for about 2 years that is lost most of the medium market share it once had.
No one doing serious workstation work uses apple any more.. They threw away a market as they used to be quite heavily used in video especially.
Local government without a clue spending other people's money on things they think makes them look good, without any actual effort to make a real difference, and instead lining the pockets of business set up to fleece just such idiots.
And yet there media will in general laud such efforts... Giving the motions exactly the payoff they are after.
Welcome to the new green. Does nothing for the environment, but lines a lot of pockets and furthers the political plans of the corrupt and incompetent.
Of course a certain verbal minority will safely attack any attempt to shine the light of truth on such things.. They are the brown coats of the new green.
So.. You will personally go and visit each and every web site you want to access privately? Physically visit every inline store you want to deal with? Then secure all that data carefully! Remember.. If anyone gets a copy.. All security is give.. At either end!
You need to think about things for more than 30 seconds.
Or perhaps you should accept that armchair 'experts' like you who think this is so easy are actually a big part of the problem?
Good crypto is hard.. QC proof crypto will be harder.. Such is life. The major historical mistake to avoid is over complex 'standards' that are therefore never implemented or used correctly (I am looking at you ipsec..)
Said like someone who lives in a city, probably an apartment, and knows jack shit about actual ecosystems, but feels because they drink soy latte, and own a bike, they are a gaian dream.
Hint: generally, ecosystems span roads more easily than roads span ecosystems. In fact roads are one of the easiest constructs for them to span. malls, stadiums, towns, cities - all much much worse.
Roads result in a bit of roadkill - probably less than the many MANY others causes of death in the wild. Roads with chainlink side fences are a bit more problematical, but not many countries are that 'special'
They are not allowed to lie about the content, but they ARE allowed to lie about the source, that is the problem.
So, they can happily claim that something they thought they found by remote network access on Xs computer (but was actually on Ys computer because remote network access is shaky.. perhaps Y was surfing Xs wifi at the time..) will claim to have been physically found on Xs computer. Therefore, instead of being able to defend the actual facts by checking the collection method, X is left with no defense.
So yes, it does say they can lie, in a way that is critically important - the source and trail of evidence. And even if the defendant knows this, and can prove it, they are NOT allowed to.
Disgusting. If they have the right to collect this, there is no reason for them to hide how it was collected.
Say they used remote snooping to collect the evidence, and they therefore his that. They may claim they physically accessed the computer during a later legal raid (made legal by that evidence) and collected this evidence, however perhaps when they did that they found nothing - but they are now entited to pretend they did.
Now, here is the problem. What if their remote collection ended up on the wrong network/computer (perhaps via wifi the neighbours, who were the real culprit, were on this persons network, and THAT was the computer that was actually remote accessed).
The defense has NO ability to question, investigate, or even know about this, other than blindly saying 'but no, it was not true!' The prosecution however will legally push forward with the lie that the evidence was physically placed at the defendants computer.
THAT is why this is a travesty of justice, to put it mildly.
Lets face it, this is all a punishment move by the UK government in reaction to the unepected BREXIT vote. 'What? you did that against our wishes? well, we are damn well going to make sure you wont do THAT again' This is bully parents beating their child for not wanting to get them a beer from the fridge.
I have found some of the worst traffic congestion in European cities, and have found the public transport systems generally rather poor for anything other than either local or intercity transport (ie: almost completely ignoring medium distance needs). Of course I assume YOU live in a central apartment, work not far from there, and work in a job where you dont have to move much around, right? is that pretty much it? No one else should live differently to YOU?
Well, I live on outside one side of a city which happens to form a geographical block (the city is at a choke point, unless you like boats), most of the work is on the other side of the city (great urban planning, and the council is actually working to make that WORSE by restricting residential and commercial mixing). From one side of the city to the other is around 90km, and buses (the only public transport that travels through) run regularly, every 2 HOURS from my area.
Care to handwave your way to a solution there, genius?
I am sure it's all the passengers fault. Not people desperately trying to get to their flight after a long delay waiting for their turn at a bit of ineffective security theatre..
Of course this would be solved by not requiring them to remove their laptops.. Something which would have next to no effect on the uselessness of their scanning anyway..
But no.. It's all the travelers fault. Silly travelers.. They deserve to have their items removed.
Of course it should be quite trivial door then to track down the owners right? TSA is so proud of how well informed they are about the travelers.. Surely they can localise the owners of one of a handful of people? No?
Probably because that list is part of the newly passed act they are discussing?
it explicitly says so, right in the 'bloggers ass' as you like to say: 'A list of who will have the power to access your internet connection records is set out in Schedule 4 of the Act'
Now, I am sure that actual reading is beyond you, but give it a go! its amazing what you can learn.
'The transit of an air mass containing radioactive gas released from the Three Mile Island reactor was recorded in Albany, New York, by measuring xenon-133. These measurements provide an evaluation of Three Mile Island effluents to distances greater than 100 kilometers. Two independent techniques identified xenon-133 in ambient air at concentrations as high as 3900 picocuries per cubic meter. The local gamma-ray whole-body dose from the passing radioactivity amounted to 0.004 millirem, or 0.004 percent of the annual dose from natural sources.'
There you go. Sorry for the actual fact check, but yes, the release Xenon could have had the massive net effect of increasing your normal background radiation exposure by an extra 21 minutes over a year..
Truly horrific!
Oh, and you need to look up the meaning of the word 'exploded' because your definition seems rather... odd.
Not to mention your use of 'wormwood'? which I can only assume means you are a religious nutcase, and using that to refer to the BS biblical 'end of the world' scenarios such nutjobs seem to like to claim every little thing that happens is? If so you need to be more clear..
And it is totally false. Or do you think cows contain some kind of secret matter transmuter?
They are counting all the water that PASSES THROUGH, very VERY little of which is actually consumed. If a cow actually contained that much water, the water alone would weight nearly 7 tons....
In other words, it is the usual media BS that people believe these days without the slightest attempt at critical thinking. So, grow up and use that thing between your ears next time. The water was not removed from the system, it just passed through..
You know.. Repeating a lie many many times just makes it a bigger lie. You do understand that.. Right? Because that is what you seen to be trying to do.
In fact they have actively argued AGAINST including it, for a number of reasons, none of them sane - while avoiding the main reason, that it stops their models from producing such alarming (and therefore funding producing) numbers.
Actually, it is not quite true. A few have included some such numbers, however even those assume that biomas is a constantly REDUCING quantity. Because, as we know, increased temperature, increased rainfall, and increased CO2 levels (the three things they universally predict) are all hated by plants, and reduce their growth rates.. Doh.
