The taxpayer.. for all of it. The beatings, the reports, the politicians and bureaucrats dickering over minutia.
Who doesn't pay? Those responsible for such atrocities. We increasingly live in a society where a few - IE military and intelligence brass, the rich, the police, and corporations and individuals with the money to play the game can do nearly anything with impunity.
This meets the definition of tyranny - arbitrary or unrestrained exercise of power - and we live it every day, but most do not see it. The question is, is the natural state of being for humans - people abusing their power over others, or can it be changed and transcended?
I never had access to a Sinclair. I did own a Mattel aquarius, but did not have the controllers and games. All I did was try to program in the (16 or 64) whatever it had memory in BASIC. Learned quite a bit then. Primarily that while I can program (some) it is not my forte. I am a hardware geek at heart.
Questionable or untraceable != wasteful. It is anloos way of making things sou d worse than they likely are. Specific numbers are much less. Let's throw the FUD around boys.
I wonder how this stacks up against waste in huge projects at Boeing or blackwater? The waste is bad but no surprise and seems to be a very small percentage. I wonder how much pressure to generate bad press has been applied by vested interests who do not want data like that made available?
The data density in bluray means that the pits are far, far, far, far too small for dirt to get stuck in, or on. Think of it like placing a pebble on a beach. There are pits between sand grains but the size disparity means it acts like a flat surface for most intents and purposes.
Not only this, but presumably the pits can be under the glass, just as they are under polycarbonate on a disc. Then the pits are not exposed to dir, and a normal washing will remove surface dust, bird poop, etc.
Increasingly there is only one viable solution. Vote with your wallet. Period. Do not buy anything these companies offer. No cable, no movies, no music. Nothing.
Do not feed their useless parisitism on our culture and public domain.
If you must be entertained, find alternative sources, from indie stuff all the way to pirating.
We must do this until their backs are broken.
They will fight.
There will be casualties.
We must not stop or compromise.
At least the FCC is thinking far enough ahead to realize the schools will need more money to pay for the increasingly expensive, non-net neutral internet access they will be receiving shortly.
What if he is descending from one wandering group that ran into and and interbred once in their history. There would be no genetic fragmentation with this individual, however yet another find could be from a different group that interbred at a different time or times. This would result in many different, geographically isolated, groups of humans with different genetic histories of interbreeding with neanderthals.
I like some of the prospects, and I cut my cord in favor of netfix (and..other.. sources) long ago, but i do not want to pay HBO, ESPN, Showtime, netflix, Hulu and a dozen different providers either.
I was here then and remembered the post. I have had 3 different UIDs. A 5 digit, where I was a young asinine troll - don't even remember the name, a 6 digit where I was better, slashdot.org/~Undocumented , and my current incarnation.
This site is only interested in deadlocked AGW arguments, political infighting, and tinfoil hattery. Please do not misunderstand, I am not complaining about that. These things have their place. However, real technical discussion is unappreciated here.

My Uncle has a country place that no one knows about / he says it used to be a farm, before the motor law.......
No, but post prime actors and directors do. So do Hollywood execs. Hell Get JJ. Abrams on board and add a bunch of lens flare.

Vaporware, from a company called "Steam", don't you remember Half Life 3? They will certainly deliver!
I never thought I would hear 'directly connected to internet AND more secure' in the same sentence. Is it April fools?

The puns in this post are a SYN.

His goal is not the exact opposite. It is to spin yams to make us trust that the backdoors are necessary AND actually enhance our privacy.

No anime girls can carry isoflourane spray kits to stop tentacle rapists!

Sorry. I had burritos from chipotle last night.
my point was that a localized EMP or blast would knock out the ships radios and electronics not the satellites.
No common mode of failure? An EMP or nuke would beg to differ.

Does not conclusively prove. Mixing could have occurred at many times and locations. While useful, more data needed.
