Tech like this would explain why SETI hasn't turned up anything. We've only been transmitting EM for around 150 years, and if this tech actually works in another 50 years this will probably be the main comms for all probes, off-world colonies, etc. In another 100, it would replace most other communication systems. That is, of course, assuming, President Trump or President Cruz don't start WWIII lol.
I was thinking a few days ago, that perhaps the reason this might work is because the entangled pairs when moved apart are moved at non-light speeds. Therefor, even though it may NOW be transmitting at what seems FTL, the entangled system "as a whole" (including the moving apart of the entangled pair) isn't moving anything at FTL. I realize this is a total metaphysical explanation...
There is no data center in Houston. There is one in Plano, but that's still 250 miles away. HPE just spent several million dollars refurbishing the Enterprise Command Center here in Tulsa...yet their still not using it for any of this? There's actually TWO data centers here, the Cherokee DC and the old SABRE DC that is two stories underground at the airport.
Facebook is why I rooted my phone so I could delete it, almost doubled my battery life. Plus that there is no way to block the "Facebook calls" that go right to the phone even if you don't have your number in FB...after getting calls from people I never gave my number to...bye bye!
The ACLU's site explains it quite well. It has nothing to do with the firmware, it's the idea of copying the Toshiba NAND chip first. Install a test socket onto the board, then start running the password attempts. Get locked out, or the chip erased, pop another NAND chip in with the same image written on it. Repeat until you get in. This would probably take a long time, copying and swapping a chip for every ten attempts. But a process that is annoying is still a long ways from a process that is technically "impossible" as the FBI is claiming.
He's in good company, as it's quite obvious the FBI is also lying about this being only "about one phone", "cyber pathogens" (whatever that is...), and has even admitted that there is probably nothing of use on the phone. They claim it's only for this one phone, but the FBI also claimed they never surveilled Martin Luther King Jr either until Congress drug it out of them almost 10 years later. This court order is only for this one phone, but there is no assurance that there won't be multiple "writs" after this, from the FBI and every other law enforcement agency in the US. The shooters made a point to destroy their personal phones; if there was anything on this phone it too would have been destroyed.
Apple's only way out is to change their system so that what the FBI is asking for is impossible from here forward.
The idea for V/STOL's was to be a troop-support (ground attack) craft that didn't need a runway or aircraft carrier. The troops go in, throw down the metal pads, and can quickly have nearby air support. Far smaller ships (amphibious assault crafts like the Wasp and America class LHD / LHA) that can go into smaller water ways than an aircraft carrier; in the US the Marine Corp is the main client; the Navy doesn't have any other ground assault aircraft. To utilize the "short" take off planes still need 1,500 feet of runway (the S in V/STOL) yet can carry far more fuel and ordinance. But these planes aren't meant to go 2,600+ miles like the F16; they are for deployment directly into the area of combat. An F/A-18E Super Hornet needs usually needs at least 1,500 feet of runway for armed takeoff; aircraft carriers have steam catapults to provide the extra thrust needed and "arresting wires" to stop them when they land.
Reminds me of "fusion power plants will be available in 10 years". But in reading the actual abstract, it seems that this is a black body absorption surface on top of a " thermal picture synthesizing device" and is a complete replacement not just a lossless interface. The diagram (F1A) shows connectors down to what I assume is the actual electron flow system that would feed into the rest of the "panel" which would collect the electrons into a usable electricity stream.
It's not that "no one will pay for college", it's placing a new tax on stock market speculation that will be used to pay for college. "No one says it" because your entire premise is false, the same reason "no one says" the Earth is the physical center of the solar system.
Instead of trying to start an online fight, you could just actually go read his idea. But then that might take some actual effort and time away from your trolling. It's number 6 on the page, "FULLY PAID FOR BY IMPOSING A TAX ON WALL STREET SPECULATORS."
Against "regular" solar panels? If it's that much more efficient, I would think having them outdoors would be more useful than indoors. TFA shows them as very flexible too, so one might even just be able to slap them on top of already existing solar panels, or even underneath them...to take advantage of the preexisting power storage systems.
To satisfy everyone, Zuckerberg should spin off a facebook.gr for Germany only. Applying German law to everyone on the planet hasn't worked out very well in the past, and won't work out to well this time either. No matter what his goal is, how soon will it be before US citizens who are violating Germany hate speech laws are censored? Are these "100 German employees" he's hiring going to geolocate each user before removing posts / banning users / notifying German authorities? What kind of precedent will this set, will Facebook find itself being dragged into courts in Myanmar for posts that disparaged their king? Will they have execution warrants against their employees if they don't censor pro-Israeli posts for the Saudi government?
TFA: "Prosecuters in Hamburg have opened a lawsuit against Facebook’s Northern, Central, and Eastern Europe managing director, Martin Ott". If I was Jonathan Labin (FB's managing director for the Middle East), I'd be worried that I'm next.
Seems like they "fixed" part of the mistake, @guerrilladems is working again. But per hashtags.org #whichhillary is no longer on the list. I don't actually use Twitter, so I have no idea if there is an actual "trending" page or if it's all just inside the platform itself.
The FBI is still being disinigious about "this phone". There is already a line of a couple hundred phones that this will be used on. The reason there was no NSL is because the FBI is using this as a PR stunt because of "terrorism", as just some meth dealer's phone wouldn't make the cut to force this issue. I'm betting if Apple caves, within six months every law enforcement in the country will also have this "FBI IOS". In another few months other countries will get their hands on it too. Journalists in repressive countries will be at even greater risk; just imagine Saudi Arabia being able to use this to get lists off iPhones, and then rounding up and executing every single contact in the phone. If your OK with the FBI doing this, then this blood will be on your hands too.
It doesn't mix, it "caps" the warmer sea water and totally jacks with ocean currents. The system and the science is very complex; the freshwater can also lead to ocean acidification and dead zones.
If Apple has a bug in the software, it would more than likely be covered under their warranty. They fixed their Error 53 issue, and they don't want a class-action lawsuit against them.
Maybe the powers-that-be actually listened to you? I didn't see the article before, but now there are non-paywall links as well and the "main link" is to macrumors. Perhaps we need a new story for an Ask Slashdot, "Why does Slashdot keep putting paywall articles up?" lol.
In regards to the article, the public needs to know the scope of these requests. Is there any "terrorism" in these? I really doubt it, but I think Apple should tell us to show the FBI's whole "it's about terrorism" is a flat-out disinformation lie. Everyone here on Slashdot already knows this, but the general public needs to know too. Not that they seem to care...

The customer is stilling using the encryption, just by using the app / website. So is the bank, of course.
It actually came pre-installed on the phone, no app store required.

I had to explain that yesterday to some people...McAfee wasn't "lying", he was "trolling" as in poking fun at the FBI.
Most people in the US use encryption, they just don't realize it. Anyone who's ever checked their bank account online has used encryption.

I think most Windows issues come from people installing malware and "toolbars" that eventually grind their systems to a halt.
