The satellite doesn't need to know where it it, that's the reciever's job. You compare the time difference of arrival from 3 or more satellites, and the GPS receiver determines where it is from that. The ground control system keeps track of where the satellites are at for navigation purposes and to keep them in orbit, but the atomic clock for the GPS time signal doesn't keep track of where the satellite is at, specifically - it just broadcasts it out. Others do the "where am I" (or "you") calculations externally.
I have my own Atomic Clock on my bench - It is a 10 MHz Rubidium source from an old NexTEL site (cheap on eBay) that is routed to all my test equipment, signal generators, frequency counters, etc. Accuracy on them is to about 1/10 of 1 Hz!
Let me get this straight... You're calling ME a Nazi? Fuck you, dumb shit. I am liberal in my general views on things but conservative on some others. If you think me pointing out the definition of "sedition" makes me a Nazi then you are a truly an oxygen-thieving waste of skin. Go find someone else to bully, SJW fucktard, you're too stupid to see when someone else is basically on your side of things, and would rather engage in mindless argument since my post "sounded" authoritarian. What a useless troll you are, "bro-ham". God I hate that meathead term. Get a life.
They don't even need to do this, with the powerful pattern-matching ability of Shazam and the like, they can identify the show or commercial ad in a few seconds of sampling.
You didn't check hard enough. Inciting others to treason IS a crime, it's called "sedition", or "seditious conspiracy", or a more minor version of the crime which is called "disorderly conduct". You are right in that you don't deserve to be rounded up due to that - that would be a play straight out of the books YOU are reading, which probably feature large type and small words. They DO deserve prosecution and a fair trial, however, since they indeed ARE engaging in criminal behavior.
conduct or speech inciting people to rebel against the authority of a state or monarch.

In 1798, President John Adams signed into law the Alien and Sedition Acts, the fourth of which, the Sedition Act or "An Act for the Punishment of Certain Crimes against the United States" set out punishments of up to two years of imprisonment.
In the Espionage Act of 1917, Section 3 made it a federal crime, punishable by up to 20 years of imprisonment and a fine of up to $10,000, to willfully spread false news of the American army and navy with an intent to disrupt their operations, to foment mutiny in their ranks, or to obstruct recruiting.
In 1940, the Alien Registration Act, or "Smith Act", was passed, which made it a federal crime to advocate or to teach the desirability of overthrowing the United States Government, or to be a member of any organization which does the same. This Act was invoked in three major cases, one of which against the Socialist Worker's Party in Minneapolis in 1941, resulting in 23 convictions, and again in what became known as the Great Sedition Trial of 1944 in which a number of pro-Nazi figures were indicted but released when the prosecution ended in a mistrial. Although unused since at least 1961, the "Smith Act" remains a Federal law.
Gee, I'm a white man, so I'm not even sure how that works in your little brain. And definitely not an SJW. So go suck a dick or something, you impotent failed troll.
I'm not saying it _should_ be normalized, I'm merely observing that is _is_. There's a big difference, and I'm certainly not advocating it, if you haven't been able to tell from the words in my posts. Sexual Harassment and Assault = BAD, Sexual Harassment and Assault ALSO = the societal norm in many places where men have power over women around them. Now do you understand?
A hundred years or more of the boss slapping the ass of the secretaries that work for him, or the VERY famous Hollywood "Casting Couch", are only two extremely well-known examples of this behavior. People have looked the other way for many, many years. If you deny facts like this, you are part of the problem.
I'm not saying it's right and DEFINITELY not advocating it, but it exists, has for a long time, and women who have been sick of it for quite some time are finally feeling safe enough and empowered to speak up against the abuses they have been enduring.
Naturally, the accused are engaging in exactly what the women feared all along would happen, victim shaming/blaming and attempting to lie about it, and dealing with people such as yourself who choose not to see that is IS indeed happening. This is what kept them silent for so long, the fear of retaliation or character assassination and mud-slinging.
So, I don't know why you think this is not happening, or at least think it has not been a well-known, even famous part of the seedy side of our culture for many years, but that is simply flat-out denial and refusal to accept facts on your part.
No, we can't. Here's why. Merriam-Webster's 1st (1st, mind you) definition for "normalize":
transitive verb 1 : to make conform to or reduce to a norm or standard
So that's why we use the words we do.
Nice try to deflect from the main point, though. Oh, also I'm not a "moron" and I do quite understand the mathematical definition of normalize but we are not talking about math, genius.
It would help if the "witches" weren't engaged in a socially-accepted and normalized behavior of trying to force their dicks into any subordinate co-workers, staff or others that they have control or power over for the last few hundred years or so.
Give it a rest, dumbfuck. They deserve all they get. Probably more.
Exactly this. The STLs (Studio->Transmitter Links) are on 900 MHz and 2.8 GHz in Chicago. The studios are in smaller buildings (not many stories) but the main TX sites are all the tall buildings (Sears/Willis, Hancock, etc.).
The links are directional beams or dishes and they are usually directly aimed at one another, but they are not that high power and can be overridden, especially if you have equipment maintenance penthouse access and can get up to the levels those things are at. Getting that access these days is much harder, post 9/11. It would probably be impossible to replicate that hack today, plus the STL's are digital and probably encrypted these days.
Every once in a while some of my old acquaintances used to get drunk and someone would bump into one of the STL dishes causing a momentary "outage".:)
Especially with Samsung's later phones, even if it doesn't "legally" void the warranty, it blows the fuse bits in the "Knox' subsystems, and after that not only do they consider the warranty void; the phone will no longer complete some secure transactions like Samsung Pay, and a few other things get disabled IIRC.
So, rooting one kind of cripples it from being a "normal" Samsung phone in that its trust chain is no longer intact even if the warranty thing isn't an issue.
As, usual we have the over-reaction of the day. For some reason you sound like someone we would have shown the door to.
No, it's not FRAUD. We gave back each and every ejected member every cent they paid when signing up. NOTHING. It was a private, free message board. In order to be fraud, you have to cheat someone out of something. We did not do that. In fact, the guests there that had to be ejected were guilty of FRAUD because they lied about following the rules, terms and conditions, and did not - thus cheating the membership out of a quiet, stable helpful professional atmosphere they came to enjoy.
You see, your response and all the other thin-skinned responses like it were met with one simple statement. "This is a PRIVATE web site. You are a guest here, this is our house. We are not a country, you do NOT have legally-guaranteed free speech here.", The 8000 or so happy members that we had accepted this as their terms and conditions. The 4 we had to boot did not.
It was far from typical. On the board we had about 8,000 users, and of them, only about 4 had to be dealt with this way. We ran a forum for professionals and good behavior was the norm, but we did get an occasional idiot from time to time. Otherwise the membership very much appreciated the professional atmosphere and the lack of trolls and morons.
VBulletin, very popular forum software, has a feature called "Global ignore" that does what you describe. I used to run a large well-moderated professional discussion forum and if we got a jerk in the rolls we would first warn him, then either put him on global ignore or "miserable users", which is hilarious. It would take people sometimes months to realize they were being muted, sometimes they never did figure it out.
Miserable users was pretty funny, if you decided the person had to go but was big enough of an asshole you wanted to still have some fun, you would turn this on. It would:
1. Slow response (time delay) on every page (20 to 60 seconds default). 2. A chance they will get the "server busy" message (50% by default). 3. A chance that no search facilities will be available (75% by default). 4. A chance they will get redirected to another preset page (25% & homepage by default). 5. A chance they will simply get a blank page (25% by default). 6. Post flood limit increased by a defined factor (10 times by default). 7. If they get past all this okay, then they will be served up their proper page.
After that you just waited for them to get frustrated and leave of their own accord. Passive-Aggressive Nirvana!
Well, just like Hubble, this sounds like simple metric->standard substitution error! We meant 2 METERS not 2 FEET, sorry, our bad. That will be $200 for a shielding "upgrade", thank you.
They thought of that - the "legal" links are legit, they are usually buy the DVD from Amazon or stream it from NetFlix, or the app stores, etc.
The sneaky shitty part was they are in a tiny box at the bottom of the page, and the rest looks like the regular torrent search landing page, perhaps so that people won't notice the tiny box of legit links.
Keyword spamming would be closer to what they are doing, tricking people searching for [movie] + torrent into finding a result.
I remember seeing a sort of similar page when some pirate search engine got it's page impounded by the DHS/MAFIAA, so they set up a honeypot replacement site that showed your results then had links to legal sources of the movie, and if you STILL clicked on the "torrent" link, it went to a "You've Been Naughty, You're Busted" page.
