Except for the part where space weapons require cutting edge weapons technology, guidance systems, etc, that have yet to be fully developed. Not to mention multi-billion dollar launch systems required, that none but the largest countries have access to. Oh, and the fact that, unlike firearms, it's a little tough to develop and deploy a space-based weapon unnoticed.
Space does not require cutting edge technology. Burt Rutan can tell you more. Humble millionaire's can afford to finance their own journey's into space, I think small countries probably can as well. Also, why must these weapons be so complicated? A 10 foot DU rod massing a few hundred KG, dropped from space, would absolutely devestate its target. The targetting system might be complicated, but really, you're just dropping a rock on a target. We've been doing that fairly well since the advent of flight. Well, since the advent of bombing.
So. It's much easier to do than your post indicates. It's much less expensive than your post indicates. That means it is much more achievable.
I don't think NK will do it, because frankly, they're too f'd up. It's hard to get good help when you're a homocidal madman with a freakshow hairdo.
Since the entirety of the linked articles have been egregiously misrepresented by the summary text, I would like to add a few more claims.
Monad has already cured cancer, you need only purchase Windows Vista to innoculate yourself.
Monad is an anagram for NadMo, which is Bill Gates' name for his Johnson.
Monad is also an anagram for "O, Damn!" which is funnier in Old English than Japanese.
The terrifying virus that terrified Microsoft into pulling Monad was written by a Linux sleeper cell with a creamy terrorist nucleus. This terrorist cell is headed by none other than Osama Bin Linus. This terrorist attack has also led to the current teenage urban dance craze known as "Pulling the Monad."
Monad would rate this post as +5 "More accurate than the summary."
Is this heater instantly hot? Do you have to wait for the engine to get warm before you do? If you don't, then this would be great in cold climates. I've wasted a lot of gasoline waiting for my car to get warm enough to sit in.
They're super small, (shuffleish sized), do usb, ethernet, and other stuff. Runs linux out of the box. XScale processors start at 200Mhz. The price is right too.
For real enterprise needs, companies like counterpane not only install the intrusion detection devices; but offer services that monitor them just like the physical alarm companies do.
"real enterprise" doesn't need another log parser tied to an email notification service. It needs insurance. It needs another company to pass the buck to when they get hacked. I'm sure counterpane does a bang up job, but what you're talking about should only take a developer a few months to put together. Then you'd have the local expertise of the developer and the source.
An intrusion detection device without anyone responding to it is as silly as a silent burglar alarm that noone responds to.......
The one feature I'd look for in an intrusion detection device is that it can quickly escalate a detected intrusion attempt to real people (through email, phone, calls, etc).
So multiple blaring alarms that noone responds to? I mean, if you've got an IDS without proper email integration, you've done it wrong. Snort does it already, based on attack type even.
Furthermore an admin running an ids that doesn't check it every day is USELESS. Uhm. No offense.:)
We need to push our government to enact consumer protection laws that stop this kind of abuse.
I disagree with this part. We need to stop buying from 'fine print' vendors. We need to support ethical, fair businesses. We need to generate awareness of the problem.
Letting the government do anything besides protect us from our enemies is asking for ineptitude and inefficiency. You're likely to see the amount of fine print quintuple if the government gets involved. You're asking beauracrats to prune their bread and butter.
Everything else in your post though, I agree with wholeheartedly. Thanks.
Whatever do you mean? What if I'm just suspicious of Germans you insensitive clod?! Okay. You caught me. I never thought of "lang=us". I tried up up down down left right left right b a select start though.
One of the links to the torrents, links back to a slashdot 404. And the DE in the filename of two of the other links make me suspicious that they are German.

I've had half a dozen die on me in the last 18 months. I kept buying more, thinking, "what are the odds that *FIVE* of these could die in a row?"... I'm posting this from a machine I spent all day rebuilding because it's Maxtor drive died. That company is pure evil. There will be a class action suit against them like there was against IBM and their deathstars years ago.
Most businesses don't burn bridges like you're suggesting. Never is a really long time (the longest in fact). It's not Sony's chip, and they have NOTHING to say about what IBM does with its own IP (assuming they own it outright). Sony is free to use whatever chipset will bring in the most money. If IBM's decision negatively impacts the value of Sony's product, then Sony's product was relying on a very silly thing for value.
For the PS3, they don't need for their game machine to be unhackable forever, just until the PS4 comes out.:)
They didn't need the PS2 to be unhackable forever either, just until the PS3 came out... I can almost recall an aptly worded definition of the word "insanity" that seems to apply here.
Also, DRM v9 is not unhackable. That is simply false. That it has not been hacked may be true, but that does not imply that it is proof against anything except the methods that haven't worked yet.
Seeing that R-ing the F-ing A is an impossibility for me right now, due to an inexcuseable lack of.torrent or google cache link, I'll just post some outright fabrications about it's content.
This technology proves that there was a third gunman on the grassy knoll. This technique is like what they did in the Matrix, except "backwards." With this technology, any man can find the g-spot. When you look at the videos upside down, you can see into the past.
Yes, I see that. To contextualize this page further, I specifically asked for a regular expression that was usable outside of Perl, hence some of the verbosity. To me, it's more of a demonstration of the concept that regex isn't a panacea, and that email address verification is non-trivial (or at least more difficult than I was initially led to believe).
An initial dig brings up terms like "EXPTIME-complete" which doesn't match anything I remember from my undergrad algo class. Apparently, there is a rule modification that makes EXPTIME-complete games EXPSPACE-complete. This makes even less sense to me. Explanations in lay speak are appreciated.
We haven't been able to detect gamma/x-rays for the last 400 years. The 300 years prior to this last century could've been endemic with magnetar quakes and we'd never know it. Might as well claim that it's the largest in human history.
Sort of OT, but why insist on WINCE? Linux runs on most PDA's and with java it's programmer friendly as well. I run familiar on my ipaq. It's perfect (aside from the battery life problems you mentioned). And now with phone on chip tech coming around, we're marching steadily towards a unified device. I'd love an ipaq form factor computer that I can plug my hands free set into and make a call.

Okay. I think I grok most of that, but....
What's jumphosts?
Why use Kerberos to replace public key auth?

I guess China is preparing for the peak oil event. We should be doing that same in North America.
We'll get to it. Right after we're done converting to metric.
Maybe not in every classroom, but certainly in every nurses office. Right next to the defibrulators.

You were thinking that an ASP.NET programmer with 1 year of experience was worth more than that?
Most "programmers" with 1 year of experience are barely break even, asset/liability wise.
You are entitled to nothing, least of all a job paying twice the average wage, for a skill with which you are barely a novice.

200 trillion dollars? What the hell kind of plan is that? Were they going to buy everyone a prius?
Oh, and why aren't there any diesel hybrids?
Highlander 2 anyone?

I could see Sony NEVER buying from IBM again.

I'm still looking for a good email regex
Well, you asked for it.
Actually, I asked for it last week, in #linux on freenode. Scary huh?
Hook the developers, and they start peddling it in the corporations. Soon, the corporations can't give it up. Then they sell us their wives!
Netcraft confirms it. Firewire is dying. The writing is on the wall. It's in crayon and poop.
*sigh*
I can't be bothered with writing out the full "is dying" troll if the editors can't be bothered with weeding out TROLL ARTICLES from the front page.

But back to the original OT question, why WINCE?
It's still tied to your credit card. You can still cancel that card.
