    I think you are confusing "Capitalism" with "Free Market." Like Fascism, Communism, Socialism, and may other isms, Capitalism is anything but free, hence the likes of AT&T.

    If you watched the video you'd know that this acoustic coupler doesn't support AT commands - or any other kinds of commands. it just converts bits it receives on the serial port into pulses in the tone it generates, and it converts pulses it receives into bits on the serial port.

  18. Re:Tape on Volunteers Recover Lunar Orbiter 1 Photographs · · Score: 1

    Because every time you rescan the photo would result in data loss. Scanning-printing-scanning-printing would eventually result in a blurred mess that was unrecognizable as the original pic.

    the same could be said for simply opening and saving the grandparents hypothetical jpeg, as jpegs use a lossy compression algorithm. I wonder which would degrade faster, opening and saving or printing and scanning?
