Hells most of them should not be on wifi, zwave etc etc is plenty fast and a better network. A dimmer needs a IP stack like a whole in the head. If you need that much speed it better be running artnet or similar not https connections to the cloud. The vast majority of this stuff has data use measured in bytes per day maybe KB if it's gathering power usage data.
Sure lots of things want to connect to the internet, take my garage door interface. They sell their own services to let you via the cloud open/close the door and get alerts if it's left open etc etc. It has a local API, it connects to my IoT vlan and can not get out the door. Yet that means it never gets any possible firmware updates (would have to check if there is a way to upgrade via the api/local interface) but for a wired device on an isolated vlan at worst it's a way to get into that vlan via RF or able to open the garage door (and set off the alarm). The local API gives me all they would sell me and a lot more.
Not to sure on that selling under cost. A single nest costs more than the vera and the 4 zwave thermostats I needed. And a Vera works fine with no internet access.
Really though a smart local controller and dumb devices is a good model. I dont want to replace ever dimmer in my house every few years thats something that should last decades. On the other hand the controller needs security updates new features etc etc. That also gives you a very defined exposure point the be hardened. While the M&M security model is imperfect you have to plan for devices lasting decades they will need something else to do most of the security heavy lifting.
I have no problems getting all my IoT devices to work just fine when they have in general no internet access. In my case it's a seperate vlan with firewall rules.
The problem is the cloud push to do very little onsite and send a lot of data into the clod while accepting C&C from it. Look around and plenty of devices that work locally.
In a word yes investigative journalism should dig for real meat. I'm not talking what some dick picks etc but the HRC lets dump the TPP and will get the same things in later when they are not looking is exactly the sort of scoop a journalist should be looking for.
These days they all get free hot lunch and breakfast and take home dinner nobody wants to steal the made in mexico truck stop food.
The idiot parents handing a smartphone to a 7 year old because that will shut them up so they can go back to playing on their phones might be the problem. Their lack of parents leads to whining at teachers etc for attention and no ability to cope.
recycling and other places are comming online for sources. Everybody with a clue has been looking at china's export ban and going yea lets make sure we have a fallback plan.
Actually we still have millions of uncounted votes (that should increase her numbers more as mostly CA) so we do not know what the popular vote is. Nor does it matter.
I say no reasonable because no first world nation nor most of the world does not use a simple plurality for elect thier head of state. You can bitch moan and complain because your chosen one failed to win that does not change the fact she lost.
No any reasonable system uses a majority wins and multiple rounds to get their or instant run off voting. With the least change that would mean another round of voting with just the top 2. Winning with a mere plurality is broken.
Hint this is how our Senate works you need a majority thats 50% +1 of everybody that votes.
Yes you can. You think the MPAA and RIAA are needed? No trade and your still going to see every movie and CD show up in the 3rd world. We allready know if they price it reasonably for the local market people will buy it over the bootlegs.
A pardon would make him safe from all crimes committed anywhere before the pardon in the US including extradition for those crimes. In effect there would be no legal way to get him out of the US.
And they can go down that with that suicide pact, thats good for us. Hopefully we start bringing modern fission reactors online ya know realy fighting climate change.
But they may make the road far more fun. All the driver less cars get out of the way of people actualy driving. No more hyper milers doing 45 on the highway, or granny's etc. Speeding by them all in a 53 vet etc will be fun.
Longer term it will lead to a push to up speed limits to what people are actualy comfortable at (80 ish on most highways).
We have people the need the machines languages various disabilities etc etc etc. It's trivial to make a machine that print human readable ballots that can be machine and human tallied. It's very hard to hack that if you assume the humans will actualy check the printed ballot before casting it. Rules that the human readable portion is the one of note is trivial. In the end all of he good parts of machine voting without any of the bad parts.
You dont seem to get how the PSTN works. Foreign you mean oversea's? so get few buck a month VM via bitcoin and you look like a US PBX now. These guys are not using indian/russian telco's to do this they are back hauling to the US via VoIP as they dont realy care about call quality only cost. It's not uncommon for them to hack legit PBX's to save costs either.
People keep thinking a hack system like we put in place for ipv4 will work but there are billions of DID's ipv4 doesn't work well with only millions of possible networks. Something more analogous to SPF for email is needed.
Replacing an existing system that spans the world is a massive task Your still going to need trust points and IPv4 has shown us that those will fail. Optionally requiring authentication to use particular CID's is far more sensible and incremental. Hell's laying it on top of DNS actualy make pretty good sense as country codes and TDL's match up pretty well.
Have fun getting that to work I have hundreds of DID's for the work PBX. I have multiple carriers. Any DID might go out any carrier. Ever sales monkey seems to want thier company cellphone as their outbound CID from their desk phone.
Now take my home PBX I make 800 calls out as my work phone because I actualy make money doing so. I use my cell phone as my outbound CID because that is the number people know been the same since the 90's and frankly voip sms is not fully baked yet.
Blocking the scammers without breaking basic functionality thats old than most of us is not hard.
Then your protocol would be broken, my PBX routes calls via the best carrier for a given destination. The CID might be the main 800 line an extension DID or an individuals cellphone (which tend to call forward into DID's for VM and desk phone roll over). Many of those carriers I dont have any DID's with nor do I want any.
It would be fairly easy to require LOA's the same as IPv4 just a nightmare to administrate where once you get big enough the requirement goes away. Looking for odd DID origination is also not that hard.
Please it was a standard in small towns, teenager got caught drinking smoking pot etc etc, parents got called and the kid volunteered for some charity and all was good. Now we have zero tolerance and screw them over for life.
Terminal kills it. Getting a VTOL to land in my yard and fly me NYC for that odd trip and save hours of driving (in traffic) or 2.5 on the train could make sense for that odd trip. That is about a 20-30 minute trip at those speeds if it's similar cost to the limo company and takes a couple hours off the travel time.
The funny part is 150mph is the upgraded commuter trains we were supposed to get 20 years ago but the nimbly's fraught tooth and nail, so were stuck with 60mph you can drive there faster without traffic.

Ever actualy been on a conf call for a big company every sales money has a vp title that implies authority to enter into contracts.

That is utterly useless in the context of any reasonable voting system, failure to get a majority means another round of voting not somebody winning.

Let me explain Clinton got a plurality of votes not a majority. She also lost the EC by a wide margin.
People are pissed because they allowed presidential campaigning to be a docudrama and think meme's from FB are fact.

No idea how you could find it hard to setup, install and pull in some addons.
Or ya could use keepass across all your devices without using somebody shared hosting.
