The goal genuinely was to build an all-in-one diagnostic system within a couple of years. But each and every competitors system has been built from decades of research. To look as if they had something working, they just used their competitors products to provide results.
I think it's ridiculous that wifi routers have only one password that can be bandied around. Even worse that the default passwords are listed on websites. I think every device that connects should have its own personal password. Does that give me the right to whack out wi-fi routers on these lists?
Has anyone seen the configuration menus for the firewall tables on these devices? Microsoft puts everything into one giant spreadsheet table; applications vs. user groups and accounts and types of service. Other companies block by port number and inbound/outbound or multicasts/broadcasts and IP bit masks.
Why can't/etc/hosts redirect or block using bitmasking as well?
It completely takes the piss when you try and use Visual Studio 2017 IDE, and discover that you have to have an account with Azurre and login before you can actually use the editor or compiler. Even with VMware, the manager connects with their remote server.
They are putting personal data like names, photographs on social media. That isn't anything different from having year photographs on school noticeboards and yearbooks.. If they were taking live streamed photographs and recording audio that would be a wiretapping crime.
The title of this article sounds like something out of The Onion. "Google apologizes for trying to index every webpage in the world". "Intel apologizes for having the hottest CPU's in the industry".
Sugar raises blood pressure. High blood pressure causes capillaries to burst. The heal, but at the cost of a few surrounding cells. High blood pressure would also push more water into the brain cavity, causing loss of brain tissue.
Oh no, they claim that they are achieving "a more fairer redistribution of wealth", by taking from the wealthy and redistributing to the poor. Of couse they are exempt.
That's what google does now when you do an image search. You don't get the link to the actual image, you get some 'amp'ed' version that converts the actuall http link into ascii, and bundles it inside a google cache.
You can still do that now with regular smartphones. Get an IR filter like a Hoya H72 and place it over the camera lens. You'll get infra-red pictures with dark skies, brilliant white clouds and vegetation, while cars appear to have completely opaque windows.
Rock is high density material with fault lins and all sorts of weird echoes going by what the earthquake people do to reconstruct the interior of the Earth from seismograph returns. The weather people are doing something similar by reconstructing the structure of a storm cell from the shock waves caused by lightning flashes. Sonar is a bit easier, only the big lumpy stuff like wrecks, bridges, the seabed and organic lifeforms return direct echoes.
Atari 800. Dad and me went round all the computer stores looking at all the different home computers; Dragon 32, Acorn, Vic 20. Got the Atari 800 plus cassette player since we could reuse the controllers from the console system. Gradually evolved with extra memory modules, two disk drives from a discount sale of Atari 800XL's. Made my own controllers using ORP12 light sensors and an old telephone dial. Had fun with the little plotter and the line printer. Kept using it until late 1980's until I could afford a PC. Wrote many games and demos using hand coded 6502. Our computer store provided a collection of 100+ programming demos, everything from the Blue Danube Waltz with four sound channels to various animations.
We didn't get the video framebuffer until 1978. Displays were formed by using metal stencils placed inside a CRT and activating the relevant character while the electron beam was scanning. Computer memory was extremely expensive, but the bits-per-dollar price was doubling every decade, and still is. The first electric typewriter had been around since 1915, so keyboards had already been around. It was always the dream of sci-fi to be able to make video calls from mobile devices, but we had to wait until information theory for data communications increased bandwidth supply for networks while data compression (MPG, JPG) for video communications reduced bandwidth demands. Light-pens and trackballs were around since the 1960's. They became consumer hardware with the first 8-bit home computers but disappeared when the IBM PC came out.
I'd guess if they didn't have container transport for 200 years, they would have to adapt to what they could grow on land and catch from the sea. Breeding fish in paddy fields and catching them as the rice fields are drained is an interesting way of getting two harvests from one.
We had hedgehog flavored crisps in the UK once. There are some crisps that are made directly from apples rather than potatoes. The Far Easterns have squid flavored ice cream and Doritos. We also have blue corn and black pepper crisps which are more unusual colours. For really spicy crisps, there is Bombay Mix and Chili Peanuts. I'd like to know if there is anything more spicy.
Worry about what servers your Firefox web browser is settting up (SSDP) and why it needs to send out multicast broadcasts. Does your wifi router block those packets? Does it allow them to come in on your network? Why doesn't the menu option disable this feature? Apparently it's to provide competition to ChromeCast which allows you to stream the contents of your screen to other mobile devices across the Internet.
That's true. The first Ethernet adapters that came along for PC's were huge cards with a physical key lock and a user ID card. Everything was intended to run on offical Ethernet cable; bright yellow or blue coaxial cables connected by vampire taps, which were simple blocks with three spikes that went through the coaxial sheathing and connected to the core copper, with LAN's connected by bridges, routers and firewalls. Everything was intended to be static and predefined. For home business use, ISDN was the only choice, with data traffic charged at a cent per kilobyte. That didn't change anything since only business directors could really afford that service.
Microsoft was taken by surprise in 1993 by the sudden appearance of ISP's offering home Internet with SLIP and PPP. Those two protocols allowed every other traditional UNIX internet protocol to run transparently between the PC and remote web servers; X-windows, telnet, ftp, gopher, traceroute, netstat, ping, http, all suddenly had to be supported. Options for MSDOS were TCP/IP stack and text based browser provided by the ISP (Trumpet Winsock). Microsoft just simply could not invent their own API's as they always had to in the past. They were forced to adapt to the rest of the world.
Microsoft's only choice was to bundle their own network stack with Windows 95. Even then, CPU's were so slow that the code had to be super-optimized to the point that everything was munged together. Look at how svchost.exe does every function. There was never any anticipation at the time that joe sixpack was going to have an always-on 60Mbit connection to his gaming rig or netbook.
My doctor said that getting sleep between 10pm and 2am was critical to a long healthy life and preventing deteriotating vision in old age. I'm not sure if that's simply because of getting sleep in dark hours, or there's something physics related about having the Sun behind the core of the Earth.
Norway has no night-time in the Summer months, so it's just permanent sunset/sunrise for three months, so bedrooms have blackout curtains while people are out walking around at 4am in the morning, painting their houses, taking pets for walks.
Could this be combined with origami, so that a CPU layout is printed in a true 3D structure rather than a small series of layers? Get the folds in the right place and logic units that are normally far apart would be right next to each other.
This is the best solution. I've seen a lot of companies that folded because the landlord raised the lease the minute the local newspapers ran a story on how they were awarded a research grant/won a contract/secured investment funding.
Rule no.1 is keep control of all expenses. Rule no.2 is operate in stealth mode. Then there is the hazard of copycats. So you need a six month lead of your Generation2 product as soon as Generation1 is released. That way you can release Generation2 within months.

If you upgraded the firmware on a Cisco router, you would find that you could only configure it through the cloud.

I believe it is to do with web browser clients connecting to remote servers and making transactions:
