Yes, and the use of nanotubes (if the geometry is at all important) means the promise of cheap is a bit far fetched, mwcnt's are stupid expensive, swcnt are 50-100x more and aren't yet produced on commercial scales.
Normally that would be true but with the weird twist in the jetstream the last few weeks I doubt it was too much help unless they wanted to go over the gulf of mexico and canada.
I'm with you 100% but unfortunately the car manufacturers don't get a $2,000 (at 3-500% margin) upgrade package premium for such a basic but functionally superior setup so we'll never see it as OEM equipment. There are a few third party head units that do this and for a small price can be wired into existing steering wheel controls.
BlueTooth with AVRCP is probably here to stay and the 2.0 audio codecs will probably be supported forever just like MP3, they're good enough at getting music from a device to the head unit that it seems unlikely they will be abandoned.
The last Olympics needed ~6-7Mbps for 720p, ~8-10Mbps for 1080p so if you had two people in your house who wanted to watch different sports you'd very tight at 720p and SOL at 1080p. Those streams were also pretty blocky, the realtime compressors probably could have used 2-3x the bandwidth to make things smoother.
You're still going to run into problems unless it's a fairly small apartment building, 10 stories up is half your limit and then you still have two horizontal runs that max out at ~60-70'.
1Gb @100m doesn't require Cat6, only Cat5, 10Gb @100m requires Cat6A (Cat6 isn't used in any official standard, there's an annex that calls it out for distances to 55m but it was never adopted and real world testing shows a drop off in reliability around 37m)
Dude, this isn't going to reach from the cabinet, it'll have to be in a small box at the curb and at that point why bother, just run a piece of glass or plastic and have a network that will work for 25+ years instead of a 5 year stop-gap measure. To put this in perspective we run into 100m limitations within a single building, it often requires carefully planning where to place the IDF(s) to make sure that all drops are within the 100m length limit for ethernet, using this for a last mile solution is stupid.
If you look at the homepage it's obvious that same block of script was placed at the bottom right corner but was removed, they just forgot to remove it from the career center page =)
Sounds like your admins are incompetent, my users have none of those problems (ok app load times are a bit long at 35-50 seconds average for the first app on a silo). The advantage is that the apps just work and that they can be used from anywhere, we recently had a power outage at our HQ campus, instead of sitting around doing nothing everyone was able to go home and work from there.
IBM doesn't care about hardware sales, they've sold the desktop business to Lonovo and were recently shopping the server unit as well. IBM is and always has been a services company, they used hardware as a way to do it from the beginning but now most of the engagements come from software. These days hardware is just a way to sell software which sells services.
Universal access fees DO NOT go to the collecting company, they go the the universal service fund which then distributes them. The major programs the fund supports are lifeline service for the poor, rural telecom subsidies, rural telemedicine, and library and school internet access.
I bet they're either pseudomonas putida or a closely related pseudomonas, these are the bacteria that have been used to aid in the cleanup of oil spills and which naturally occur in the ocean bottom where petroleum oozes out of natural cracks in the cap containing them.
Do the flash flood warnings come through as a severe alert or an extreme alert? If they come through as a severe alert (like they do here) you can turn off severe alerts and then you should still get tsunami warnings as I'd imagine those are categorized as extreme.
You're required in many areas of Ohio to maintain the sidewalk in front of your property, if you fail to do so the city will do it for you and asses your property with a lien.
Huh? Canada is like the US in that you can own both the surface rights and the mineral rights to your property, if you own the bundled rights and oil is found nobody seizes your land, you get to negotiate a lucrative rights lease to somebody who will exploit the resources (or not, but if you don't it's likely they'll put a well on your neighbors property and exploit it without compensating you so you might as well lease the rights). I know quite a few folks here in Ohio that have hunting tracts down in SE Ohio that have received checks for several times the original cost of the land for oil and gas leases.
My only problem with the way they implemented EWS on the cell network is that they're not taking advantage of the technology. Last week there was a tornado 4 counties SW of me and headed in a SE direction, but I got a dozen alerts about it despite the fact that nobody connected to my cell could have possibly been in danger because even driving at 65mph you couldn't have gotten to where the tornado was before it dissipated. If they would target the counties/communities that were actually in the path of danger I'd be 100% in favor of the system, but as its currently implemented it's a bit annoying.
Considering that Rudolf Diesel used plant oils in his early test engines, not heavy petroleum fractions, I see no reason why a diesel cycle engine using natural gas as the fuel is any less a diesel engine than one running on heavy kerosene.
Perhaps a form of copyright may be more appropriate there than patent.
Oh hell no! Since copyright is DeFacto forever thanks to the MickyMouse Copyright Extension Act it would be MUCH worse if they could be granted a copyright on genes.
Yep, many surveys have shown that NPR/PBS consumers tend to be more well informed when compared against extremely politicized sources like FOX and MSNBC and also when compared against consumers of mainstream mass market news sources. Right wing extremists have been complaining about liberal bias at NPR/PBS for years but it seems to be the same kind of liberal bias as reality has =)
Higher level people almost never fight a sacking in court because it means their name will forever be associated with being sacked, better to take a severance package and "leave to pursue other interests".
From the information leaked PRISM is covered by a blanket warrant from the FISA court. Under previous law the FISA court would not have been able to sanction domestic monitoring but I'm sure it is under some authoritarian reading of how the FISA bill and the Patriot Act interact.

Diesel engines can run on natural gas, in fact BNSF is in the pilot stages of a planned conversion to all natural gas.
