And that will be the time I drop them (Netflix), because I pay enough now just using Verizon Wireless...
Missus is leaning on me bad enough as it is to drop Netflix, but dammit, I like getting all my Star Trek!!
On most modern 2.4 Ghz R/C radios (such as Spektrum, etc), there is a 'bind' procedure that locks the transmitter and receiver together and prevents someone else from overridding the controls and to prevent interference from other transmitters. Granted the system used to control this drone is more sophisticated (hopefully), but you would think a similar system would be in place.
That may be a bad assumption seeing as there was an article recently reporting that it was possible to intercept the video feed from U.S. drones.
I don't see why the studios don't get together and implement a virtual theater where all their content is available. I go down to the local multiplex to view movies from every studio. I don't have to drive to the Sony Theater to see Sony productions, the Warner Theater to see Warner, etc.

Because Netflix does that already, Mr. Obvious...
and flashing when you are behind someone in the passing lane (in MA, the slow-down-to-5-10mph-under-the-limit-and-read-a-book-or-eat-your-sub-or-watch-a-DVD-lane) means "please move over I'd like to pass."
I wish folks in Arkansas & Oklahoma would remember that. You flash your lights at them in the left lane, they get pissed and slow down...but we are getting way off-topic, now.
If anyone read TFAs that were linked, this feature is meant mainly for MOBILE users with limited screen real estate. Entirely optional for PC users especially since it can enable phishing attacks.

This way, nobody could ever complain of discriminatory treatment based on race, nationality, religion, etc.
If you read TFA, the guy was a REGISTERED SEX OFFENDER in California according to TSA records. That gave them reason to believe he may have had contraband files on his PC, especially after they found many files were encrypted (another red flag). This wasn't some joe-blow they picked at random.
Agreed HJF. Our company dove into virtualization head first to save on hardware maintenance costs. Each blade server in a cluster running VMWare can at least run 5 or 6 Virtual Servers (probably more if we wanted to push it).
VMs are great for testing new apps. Don't have to waste a physical box. If the testing doesn't work out, you can just delete the VM and try something else. Only thing lost is time.
Hardware maintenance contracts aren't cheap, especially when your server count runs into the hundreds of boxes....
Well its all an act / business to him. He did his stint on CNN but exploiting fear in liberals is difficult compared to exploiting fear in conservatives. The current liberal market is younger and college level educated. The conservative market are older and although contains college level educated individuals its not as high as the liberal market.
It's a great act! Why, this is an almost spot-on impersonation of Jon Stewart's impression of a neo-con pundit. Right down to the glasses, the pointer stick, answering his own questions, and overall tone.

You can get a wireless router for around $50 and hook it into your DSL modem.
Now they just need to resize this down, integrate it into a telephone and you have Tony Stark's see-thru smartphone from Iron Man 2! Cool ;)
Hard to subscribe to Verizon FIOS in areas where they don't offer it (like here where I live).

Ok...maybe 1.001 % then...
I think the OP was thinking about Zynga......where you give up your options or face termination....was an article about that recently...
Pretty close....someone just needs to perfect some AI software and we are set!

Nitpickers are idiots, too...

Oh yea. Rice cookers, watches, deadbolt locks, even an electric weed whacker! Looks like they are turning into a hardware store to me! LOL
Holy run-on sentence, Batman!!

Interesting article...... I wonder if they will branch off into alcoholic beverages manufacturing soon?
Space won't have a killer app until science hurries up and invents FTL travel.......if that is even possible.....(I hope it is!!)
That looks more like Arkansas than the East Coast! (and I am FROM Arkansas)!!! LOL
