    Or they build one from an arduino and either write their own code or modify the various open-source versions out there.

  2. Re:Inconsistencies on Only Self-Awareness Can Keep Drones Out of Do Not Fly Zones · · Score: 1

    Well, since the Constitution specifically mentions the fact that it does not enumerate you rights it's a moot point.
    I am in no way claiming that flying a drone is a right, just wish people would stop asking where in the Constitution a right is.

    According to who? Blanket statements that go against a consensus of scientific opinion should really be supported by some citations if you want to be taken remotely seriously.

    Really, so it wasn't the relaxing of the regulations regarding media ownership that caused the consolidation?

    >Other than the Second Amendment, I found no mention of the press.
    Then you have some very special reading skills as the 2nd Amendment makes absolutely no mention of the press.

    "His views were used by segregationists". Worse he colluded with segregationists and actively aided them while ignoring his scientific objectivity.

    this only affects routers using the 5ghz frequencies.

  10. Re:just more rules from Fed.gov on New FCC Rules Could Ban WiFi Router Firmware Modification · · Score: 1

    When your router requires firmware to be signed by the manufacturer they probably won't be installing any 3rd party code.

    Then go after those who are out of compliance. The laws and rules already exist for that.

    Not sure why you bring just Hillary into it. Shows a very partisan stance. Nixon, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama.... All have done things equivalent, some far worse.

    Microwave relay.
    https://www.newscientist.com/b...

    It's not about the medium, it's about the use. Point to point communications can compete with fiber and copper, but once you start broadcasting to multiple users you lose range and bandwidth as broadcast wireless is a shared medium.

    So basically this finding does exactly the opposite of what the summary says. It states that there is evidence that the Koran and Muhammad were contemporaries and in no way refutes the fact that Muhammad may have written it.

    Wouldn't simultaneous hurricanes be the evidence you are looking for? Enough heat energy in the ocean to spawn 3 major storms at the same time, something we have never seen before.
