The benefit of reading this: $150,000 for a radio jammer? Go find me an Extra class licensed HAM operator and he can outfit a battalion for that price, including R&D. $1.1 BILLION spent on that one item?
Anybody download this thing and look up hammers & toilet seats yet?
Reading the article, they WERE on backup power. Emergency crews shut down the backup power to the chillers temporarily while they were working in the area, so the chillers had to start again. Cycling these big machines isn't instant.
That's interesting, especially since as I understand, for some time Zippos were the only lighters that you could get aboard (granted in checked baggage with an airtight case). Zippo page about their lighters on airline.
Whatever the case, it doesn't surprise me too much for TSA folks to be inconsistent.
Pure and simple marketing that is proven effective. See also the $XX.99 phenomenon, shiny packaging, etc. It was at one point common practice for a store to charge you more to use a credit card in order to cover their increased costs. Card companies figured out they get a lot more business this way.
Well, since the compressor motor is on the outside of the server room, and is the primary consumer of energy, I'm going to say the answer is: "A small portion."
Nobody's mentioned this yet? Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds?
They're clearly organizing!

Trying to comment on that thread from memory, users of the site kept modding it up, and the/. editors kept running a "nuke" downmodding the thread. Back then, you could see how many moderations were made on an individual post. I think it went into the 5 with this particular case... definitely into the 4.
Anyway, after that, anybody involved in the thread saw their mod abilities vanish, and/. changed their mod system to display moderations made as percentages instead of hard numbers.
I personally yearn for being able to know if my karma is 49, 50, or -236, and being able to see a count of moderations.
Drawing on my telco knowledge, he's talking about what will amount to a regular phone line, but with higher quality for non-voice signals. Read the wikipedia article above for reference to the 4 wire part. The "unloaded" part means the line will have no loading coil (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_coil).
Enjoy:)
I just wanted to comment that you are truly insane, and that there should be no urgency for the government to request "real" details of an IP that can't be handled by means of a warrant. There's a reason for that concept.
I think the issue has mostly to do with working on student data. E.G., your social security number got sneaker netted and never deleted. The article fails to convey this properly, but does hint at it with discussion of notifying students of the ZIP drive.
I think the flow of protection is meant to go in the other way -- that a judge cannot declare guilty when a jury has let you go. The basic idea of the justice system is, I believe, focused on the "several chances to not be found guilty" theory.
Mostly because when you pull somebody over on that aweful curving section of highway, or at the nasty intersection, you cause a big traffic issue, and the officer is at a much greater risk of being hit. There's also the whole "giant disgruntled mass of people" who will complain if stuck in traffic every day because of blue lights on the side of the road. In rush hour, the police tend to focus more on keeping traffic moving.

Yes, it does. Ever since this terrorism thing became fashionable, we've been pissing ourselves all the time for no reason at all.

Yeah, not so much. Anybody care to try again?

I have mod points, but since you asked nicely... I'll just tell you instead that it was bad instead of downmodding you.

You mean manslaughter for #2.
"Sabbatical" A respectable number of companies will let you do this. One can also do this between jobs, if need be.
Apparently, the "f" key goes straight to "flamebait" and submits... commenting to undo a moderation that should have been done as funny...
Oh, awesome... thanks for making sure he'll be more careful at his nefarious deeds. You've done us all proud there, Scooter.

80mg / 12 oz. Jolt, per earlier curiosities, is 72mg / 12 oz.
That's with the linksys gear. I believe they achieved a higher rate with a less crappy transmitter?
SSH to port 443... GOOD LUCK :)

How fast can it die, or how long does it remain responsive? It is, after all, memory that leads to the eventual death ;)
Look up Semaphores?
