They are using a 7Mhz transmission for the power, so the receiver antenna needs to be roughly 10m long (1/4 wavelength). If they cranked up the frequency into the gigahertz range it would allow for a smaller receiver, but lower efficiency I guess.
Here's an independent UK ISP ratings site. BT is third-from-bottom for a reason.
All the top ISP's on the list implement download quotas instead of throttling and port blocking to manage traffic, it is the fairest solution to load management IMHO.
Um, just to be pedantic, doesn't a Turing Machine have infinite storage capacity (i.e. infinitely long tape)? The question then really is whether or not this system can have extra storage connected (e.g. a USB hard drive plus the driver software fitted into the limited RAM) in order to do this.
CRT's project an electron beam into a fixed-size phosphor pixel on the screen. This is projecting a laser dot onto a wall (or whatever), I was mostly just not sure how you get an image instead of just a series of lines appearing.
I think this is where I'm tripping up. I always assume laser light is perfectly collimated so that the projected dot at 1cm is that same size as at 1m, but I guess the projector uses slightly unfocused beam to generate a larger dot with relatively short increases in projection distance to avoid getting just a collection of horizontal or vertical lines appearing instead of an image.
Just watch, before long they'll be posting public notices by leaving them in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying 'Beware of the Leopard'.
Given that Sony recently posted its first loss in 14 years, I think perhaps it is time for them to get with the new modes of media distribution instead of keeping its head in the sand and decrying them.
Tax your gasoline to a similar degree as in Europe. That would encourage less car journeys, more walking/cycling and act as a buffer for when the oil prices start increasing again so your gas prices won't double practically overnight again.

I bet his store is open 24-hours-a-day.
FTFA:
"the type of radiation shared between the two coils is nonradiative,"
which I take to mean 'no more than a few Watts of power are involved', which is fine for mobile phones and the like I suppose.

When in doubt, dike it out. Saves some juice as well.

Philistine. There's more to life than $$$$.
That's a long time to be chargin thah lazers
Little bit concerned about the launch technology
In Japan, they move into internet cafes

You could always use it as for a casemod

Laser projector? How can you project a raster image using a inherently vector system?
I don't get it. How does it know how big the pixels should be?
(Or maybe it's obvious and I just need a beating with the clue stick here)
More than anything, this cartoon puts me off the whole ethanol idea. It still creeps me out seeing it again now.

Red Bull is a homeopathic stimulant!
I am convinced all AI philosophy work is documented by Australians,as every sentence ends in a question mark rather than a full-stop.
I was quite surprised to read in Wikipedia that the rare earth metals are neither rare nor 'earths' in reality.

Don't knock it, people have made millions by working with similar concentrations.

List of countries and dependencies by population density
Japan - 31 - 337 people/sq km
USA - 177 - 31 people/sq km
This is why mass transit works so well in Japan, and not so much in the USA.
