now the porno-pimps are trying to (!) over the whole country's entertainment system. but to do so, they've had to enter the darkest black hole of the dark side... a contract with government.
the only part of the Bible they keep going back to is Noah getting off the boat, planting grapes, and jumping his three daughters. if they were true Christians, they would pray for Jobs' Buddhist soul, remind themselves that he's getting another life on earth and not in heaven, and move on. they're just Khardasians with no PR agent.
that's today's Bank of America. portfolio full of toilet paper, execs who aren't canning the weasels who got them into the mess they're in or reporting them to the authorities, bigwigs giving themselves fat handshakes while stiffing the public, illegally foreclosing on houses they can't prove they loaned against, and can't fix a creaky website in a week.
oh, boy, time to run out and put all my money there, ya betcha, Sven.
Motorola spun off the semiconductor business over 10 years ago, remember? MotoMo has no fab, no server banks running layout software, no mask making facilities. MIT and UVermont have them lapped ten times before anybody at MotoMo could even think, "gee, could we make our own chips?"
this is the nutcase church of the inbred Phelpses, after all. if we all ignore these coocoos, they will go away to whatever fire and brimstone meets them for not loving their enemy, and their neighbor, as thyself.
hopefully, that would also apply to the MRs in the domain registry routers, as well;)
excellent tool for neutering storage. build up a roaring fire with about 6 inches of coals, and then toss the hard disk into it. retrieve in morning, dump in trash. done.
perhaps 4 or 5 years ago, some wacks unknown DDoSed the top level DNS routers. iirc they managed to submerge 5 or 6 of the dozen. any poor ISP types who compensate for short memory and long router uptime by clearing cache had a most unpleasant day on the phone. lots of folks had inconsistent connectability.
it stabilized as the DNS masters did some domain blocking. with much wider use of firewall appliances, it should be easier to recover in the future.
and if the firewalling dynamically dumped offending sources of infinite requests for, say, an hour or so automatically, the impact of punks with VB or botnets can be taken care of with a call to the registered owner of the source address. "Hey, Superbits, clean up your house within the hour or you're off the web. I own your access. You're messing the nest."
meaning it's not going to connect on the big-wacky side of the interwackytubes thing. it's going to be on a 10 network or a 192.168 network and fed by NAT from some host that has bgrp to the real thing. non-story. now, Foundry or Cisco that can't work on IPv6, that's news. 2007 news.
nothing else flies except Soyuz. and won't for several years (unless you're a spook working off-budget and have a friend at Vandenberg AFB.) it's a slickly clever plan to push the danger and the responsiblity out to a contractor. it will, by necessity of course, succeed.
so they're looking towards space. if you think their reactor is going to be a big hit when the rooted controls stop working, just wait until their space bombs get called by the botnet.
the "flash crash" of fall 2010 was caused by robotraders.
the "credit crash" of fall 2008 was caused by greedy streetpunks passing crap paper around in the form of wispy visions of a bad translation of a murky photo of a dim shadow of the promise of someday showing a bad asset. and taking big bonuses every time the stinking pile came around for another rubber stamp.
the only possible report on cause could be "everybody failed as soon as this unregulated activity was allowed."
there are a LOT of people with one primary eye, and if the second one works at all, is only used to fill in peripheral data. a LOT of us. it has nothing to do with pinhead 3D glasses with are still as dorky as they were in the 60s. this is a cash grab by the entertainment industry to obsolete and sell-up a bunch of equipment before even the promoters wise up and start looking for the soft-OFF selection in the setup menu.
you could just as well claim it's an infinite power gain, or an infinite power loss. any number is unproveable. to me, it looks like they're trying to make gin.
add in no neutrons, no detectors, and no theories, and it's basically a news event to try and whip up some quick funds. this time, instead of government agencies, it's sales of prototypes to the masses. quick, buy the address lists of the Nigerian scammers, there's your target audience.
the thing about Palm and its successors is, about the time they get a little press, they've dumped their products are are playing with something else. I made up my mind about that outfit about 10 years ago... and have seen no reason to change it since... obsolete before they finished development, can't set their course, can't hold their course... so fsck 'em, doomed.

they're connecting it to the electronic Wild Wild West, the Internet.
critical systems should N E V E R be connected to an open network.
ever.
that's rule one.
why aren't the guys making these connections going to jail?

paper tape is widely used medically yet. paper roll for gluing in place is a staple of the drywall industry for seam joining.
now, if you're talking Scotch 100 paper recording tape, you'd be on to something.

why, back in the day, when I was a sysadmin, they didn't let me take my hammer and stylus home, I had to carve all my clay tablets at work.
the upside is, these guys now are AWAY FROM THE OFFICE !!! when they are away from the office. a lovely thing, more should try it.
the downside is, they have to use their own minutes. and hard to see what the downside is, frankly.
