Others have been discussing solutions for or at least bringing up the problem where if you lose power in a drive by wire car, you're sort of toast.
It seems to me that this is a perfect scenario for air brakes. Have an electronic valve that's fail-open, and if the car loses power or sets the signal line low on purpose, it would basically stop the car dead in its tracks. While this wouldn't be ideal, especially in winter or at high speed, it's better than completely losing control of the car.
You can always compile it in to your kernel. A college I worked for in the midwest rolled their own. They had their own RHEL repo mirror, and just added it with a slightly higher minor release and kernel-* was in the skiplist to prevent vid drivers from breaking everywhere.
Is that in now? When I was in school, the drama kids were almost as outcasty as the science kids- though slightly more acceptable if you really were good.
While bringing weapons onto a schoolground is a bad idea (could be accidentally or intentionally used on someone else, including your wife), at least a taser or something is understandable, even relatively safe. Ask taser the company about taser laws in your state and schools- around here even law enforcement can't carry guns on campus, not sure about tasers, but I'm guessing taser has a willingness to look up all that information to make the sale. The $400-$700 isn't that much more than what you'd pay for a nice new handgun, and a lot less likely to put someone in jail or the hospital.
I'd totally buy one with the price drop, I thought about it before, but I have a lot of xbox original games and my poor halo special edition's disk seems to be puking now. The backwards compatibility list on xbox.com hadn't been updated since 2007 last I checked a month or so ago, and it said "we're working hard to expand this list". Baloney. I'd buy one if I could play my old games. I'd also pay for a replacement disk, but they don't even offer paid support. I'm going to have to buy a mod kit to replace the drive, but even those are hard to find now for the original xbox.
Although the article states, "This ultimately could lead to an enterpriseÃ(TM)s access point connecting outside of the company to an outside controller, and therefore being under outside control." Most business buildings are both large and concrete, there's a reason you find many access points, it's because the signal doesn't travel well, even from the hall to the back of a hotel room.
Most people don't carry around running access points, especially cisco ones, and just happen to have OTAP turned on. It seems pretty unlikely this would happen often or at all in the wild.
"Some people are prescribed methamphetamine for the treatment of narcolepsy or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. However, these are limited uses and the doses are much lower than doses that are typically used illegally."
The problem will likely be that they won't legalize the sale. If they only allow enough for personal use, the traditional dealers are out, and if they don't let people get licenses to sell or let doctors prescribe it (what doctor would prescribe meth? coke maybe.. but meth?) then the point of allowing possesion is sort of like DVDs and DECSS. "Sure, you can make backup copies! But no, sorry, you can't sell the software that can make them."
I say differentiate by external sex organs, let them dope, wear the crazy new swimsuits, let them do whatever they want. Get some really ridiculous records set, and start taking the emphasis off the time and start putting it back on the sport- having fun, maybe winning the race, but trying your best.
Maybe that's nuts as you may not ever win against the dopers, but by god at least all this scam and stress (lance armstrong?) can go away and people can truly enjoy what they do. At the end of the day, records are what the human body is capable of- naturally or otherwise, and the sport should be about trying your best. Are you after records and your name in a book, or are you after being known as the best in your time, or are you just after the thrill of the sport?
I tried setting various combinations the router, host, and guest's DNSes to OpenDNS, Mediacom's DNS, and my router's DNSMasq service. Even when explicitly not using mediacom's DNS servers, it still hijacked me over to a mediacom page with a logo and a yahoo search box and some potential here's what you really wanted results.
The issue has puzzled and frustrated me for a while. Maybe it has nothing to do with VMWare but other hosts on my network without VMWare work fine. Either way, It's really frustrating to be about to submit a trouble ticket and get their stupid page. I opt out, and I still get it.
I live in Iowa and am on Mediacom, and here's an example of why it's bad.
For some reason my VMWare bridged ethernet setup screws up my network stack a little and every once in a while a site I was just visiting will fail to resolve and I get Mediacom's little yahoo enabled typosquatting service. For the life of me, I can't explain why a messed up network stack would cause mediacom's resolvers to dump me over to their little "service". Nevertheless, I get their "handy" redirects a number of times daily. Eventually the site starts resolving again, but in the meantime I have to access it from one of my VMs which usually work fine when my host system doesn't.
The point of this is twofold 1) Mediacom has been doing DNS hijacking for some time already 2) anyone care to explain how in the world my host system hits their pages for good sites but the guests usually do not?
IMHO everyone who downloads should be responsible, but not for the upload portion. If everyone who downloaded was punished, they're getting their bases covered.
Say for a second that they monitored a tracker and found all of the peers involved in sharing a particular MP3 and they go prosecute those in the US. Assume at least some of them shared with eachother. By prosecuting everyone for the uploading and creation of 1.92M worth of music IP, they're essentially asking everyone to pay for the same damages someone else has already technically paid for.
So are they scapegoating one of the sharers and milking them for the damages caused by everyone else downloading, or are they charging multiple people for the same instance of the crime and then asking them all to pay for the sum total instead of their share? Which is it?
Make people pay for the copies they've downloaded. It makes much more sense.
Also, how do you account for someone canceling a download? I've started torrents and canceled them long before I had anything usable.
It's a tough question, but one that needs to be answered. Can you prove they really downloaded enough of the song to be useful? It's not like they download chunk linearly, so if you download 1/2 of a song you end up with the first or last half- you end up with random pieces.
there's an app that ssh's into a router and that is what's controlling the plane. it's as advertised, but the summary is wrong. the app makes the router control the plane.
It seems like there's a better way to handle unpaid bills than by punishing the innocent customers. Even if this were outright fraud as accused, there should be a way to migrate customers first, especially 911 services.

They're trying not to break API/ABI. They will with RHEL 6.

Its the new adkers diet!
That might make her sore, but I don't see how that would preclude trial?
forgive me, I couldn't resist.

I suppose I should clarify:
Although the article states, "This ultimately could lead to an enterpriseÃ(TM)s access point connecting outside of the company to an outside controller, and therefore being under outside control." Most business buildings are both large and concrete, there's a reason you find many access points, it's because the signal doesn't travel well, even from the hall to the back of a hotel room.

exploit, unintentionally?
I take that back about prescribing meth:
http://www.brown.edu/Student_Services/Health_Services/Health_Education/atod/od_meth.html
"Some people are prescribed methamphetamine for the treatment of narcolepsy or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. However, these are limited uses and the doses are much lower than doses that are typically used illegally."
But my original point remains.
The problem will likely be that they won't legalize the sale. If they only allow enough for personal use, the traditional dealers are out, and if they don't let people get licenses to sell or let doctors prescribe it (what doctor would prescribe meth? coke maybe.. but meth?) then the point of allowing possesion is sort of like DVDs and DECSS.

P.S. I've tried a few linksys routers both with and without OpenWRT.

Sounds like a space age style return to delay line memory.
To Both: Why? Dear Lord, why?
Learn C# instead, and learn Python instead of Ruby.
Doctor Who eh?
I wonder if it also opened a socket through the CIP firewall?

sorry- should have read the first post from BadAnalogyGuy.

calling it a pork product is maybe a bit of a reach, no?
