The whole "pay for the streaming service to just watch one program" thing kinda of stopped me*.
*That plus I thought the show sucked anyway. Between watching the first episode of that and also of The Orville.. I could see more potential in the latter.
Shit! We better get right on ripping RS-485 out of oil refineries, chemical plants, and other hazardous industries around the world then!
Facetousness asside, if we can happily run RS-485 at speed with many multi-drop components along several hundred meters running under HV power lines, I think our Internet of Shit devices will be just fine.
While raw RS-485 is fine, many of the container port cranes I am involved in building actually run CANbus for particular I/O runs.
You do know that all the pictures that came out a few weeks back when the "#wherearethechildren" hashtag started up were taken during Obama's watch, right?
NASA had to learn the hard way so far as safety goes, and they're not motivated by profit like a private corporation is, so I'm perfectly okay with them keeping everyone on a short leash until they prove they can be at least as safe as NASA operations.
What if your left thumb unlocked your phone and your right thumb wiped the device invisibly? The criminal could never know, you deniability and the police will be too scared to tap your dead finger to the phone.
Or what if left-right-left unlocked and left-right-right wiped?
Given that Apple is moving to Face ID for phone unlocking I don't see any changes based on finger prints happening. Plus the possibility of accidentally wiping a phone would have Apple really nervous about lawsuits.
Deal with it. You give away a certain amount of money, there may be a pay-off in the form of a product that would otherwise not have existed, but there may also not be a pay-off. Stop complaining.

Donald Trump is incapable of de-coupling his ego from his personality when it comes to his duty as President of the United States.
I basically said this on another forum a long time ago. My evidence at the time (which is still basically true) was that he initially posts stuff on *his* twitter account and then re-tweets on the POTUS account. Thus, in my opinion, he thinks of himself first and as POTUS second.

Indeed!

And if Siemens is used, they'll use Profibus, which is RS-485 based or Profinet, which is ethernet based.
I'm using GE, so it's
EGD
Modbus/TCP
Modbus/RTU
Vendor specific RS-485
Profinet
OPC-UA
STRP
SSI
And probably a few more that I have missed. And I have used Profibus in the past.
Hardwired does provide improved security, but if done correctly wireless can be almost as secure.
That depends on how you define secure. With one powerful transmitter you can execute DOS attack on a wireless network fairly easily.
because CAN is way more safe

One way or another, I have a sneaking suspicion he'll be the last, "businessman" to be "elected" to be "president" of the "United" States.
He wasn't elected .. he was putin power!

The phrase "A fool and their money are soon parted" is supposed to be a warning, not a lifestyle goal.
But you have to also consider "There's a sucker born every minute"
Trump's administration is openly pay-to-play, which begs the question, what does Trump get out of this transaction?
Ivanka's trademarks in China? The funding of the Trump resort in Indonesia? I'm sure there are a few more things goin on that we don't know about yet.
[Pinky finger to corner of mouth] Only $1 Beeelllyon to sell out national security and do away with trade sanctions.
Not really that much in today's markets.

Sure some people have an issue with Microsoft, but MS couldn't buy GitHub if GitHub hadn't put itself up for sale.
I'd bet that the anger would also flow if it was Yahoo, Oracle or Alphabet that wanted to buy GitHub. None of whom are MS.

Movies have been made, now, for oever a century. How many does NEtflix have in its catalog... and what percentage of it is streamable?
You do realize that it mentions those numbers in TFS don't you?

As a tidewater native, I'm really exited to see this quality of research coming out of Jefferson Lab. It's a great asset to the area.
If only they could turn their expertise to solving pressure waves on I-64
