    Also, modern cars use more power than simply ignition solenoid/starter/dash lights.
    They're practically master control programs strapped around an engine and electrical system.

    Which is a paradox in itself since it's slowly draining energy while monitoring the energy.
    After all, if it's turned off by software, it has to be a soft-switch.

    EXACTLY!

    This ranks right up there with backdoors in Windows for the NSA, or obligatory kill switches in cars so the police can disable the "offending" vehicle...

    There's absolutely no upside (outside of programmed light strobes), and a horrible epileptic flash movie-length montage of things that can and would go wrong.

  11. Re:Will this finally shut up on An IP Address For Every Light Bulb · · Score: 1

    What you said is the same with IPv4. It's only that most people don't want nor need their machines directly accessible by every Tom, Dick, and Hamed on the internet. Since most people would need to know about firewalls, NAT is considered a quick-and-easy segmentation where firewalling can be added to thoroughly protect.

    But you knew that, right?

    DNS is only for name serving, it has nothing to do with IP addressing.

  13. Re:Wrong place on An IP Address For Every Light Bulb · · Score: 1

    Well, I realize you didn't get the subtle techie joke... there is internal addressing with IPv6. (fe80::) That's about as close to NAT as IPv6 comes, and it's vaguely equivalent to RFC1918.

    Or perhaps the simpler reason, because it's one unified standard used by computers and appliances which has audio and video going over a single cable.
    Nah, it couldn't be that simple, could it?

    Enough with the sheeple bullshit, it's gotten old decades ago.

    ... and for those about ready to open their mouth to "discount" what this person just said, by "making out the words" in hdmi signal, it's meant that the data was interpreted correctly. I know that would have to be said, even if it seems redundant and stupid... ugh

    Pretty damned good, actually. I have a job now, making more than I ever have been, and an agenda in place to remove our troops from overseas campaigns once they have a stable government in place. The economy has pulled it's nose up from a screaming nose dive, and moved from stabilization to improvement. There's lots more, but I won't bore you with the details.

    Perhaps instead of this "uh huh!" "nuh huh!" match, you could state what city or cities you are talking about so you can stop being so damned vague. Los Angeles is not a good example.
