55 miles per gallon = 0.0427662879 l / kilometer says google.
1 liter per 23,382903897 per kilometer is nothing special and is done with normal cars TODAY.
So the goal of doing that by 2025 is quite ridiculous.
See the modern Volkswagens, maybe the Prius (although the hybrid stuff is debatable), etc.
Also do think about diesel instead of 'gas': it is way more easy to have high MPG with diesel.
I mean: from a company that has never ever shown a real grip on reality, on perceptions, on quality or whatsoever.
Windows 2008R2 has loads of bugs, even I (a simple sysadmin) encounter them on a daily basis, despite the R2 and despite the updates and fixes. The MFing OS corrupts it's own files (related to `features` and `roles`) when just applying the fixes after install.
And they only have been busy with a more or less serious Windows since 1993 or so?
And now you want them to implement a simple feature to select a webbrowser to be 100% according to your wishes?
That ain't gonna happen!
OTOH the sum of the fine will of course be lobbied heavily and is subject to change to the downside.
Confidentiality that is not there.
They work for the people, right?
So why can't they know their direty secrets?
Just because their dirty landry is out they were outraged and the USA behaves like a small child here.
See the treatment of Bradley Manning, see the stance against Julian. No cases against Bradley yet. Even after this time.
How stupid is that?
Would the wikileaks situation really change with Bradley and Julian behind bars?
Wikileaks should be like Anonymous: legion.
They mention `Google`, one of the greatest tech companies in the world
and 'check' in one sentence.
FWIW: in other parts of the world we do payments via electronic means all over the continent at lower cost and at quicker speeds.
Why didn't an ex-Googler work on the check-problem yet?
Of course the US `foreignpolicy` is still to be the policeman of the world although the empire is crumbling and they still ignore that they cause the evils themselves for the greater part.
And then they need Harvard to confirm that a dron is a usefull tool.
As would be a B-52, team of commando's, mini-nuke, etc.
So it all looks pretty insulting towards someone with some amount of intelligence.
The war on terror was lost perhaps at 9/11 when they let that happen and used it as an excuse for evil stuff until now.
You know all about 9/11 so you know that it wasn't treated like a criminal case but they did use it as an excuse to start wars.
Biometric stuff invades our privacy.
But still: does the detected error rate increas matter?
We do not *identify* people via the iris scan, or do we?
If we just match a person to his/her's passport the error rate is insignificant.
Because MS is sooo big, sooo smart, has soo many patents they still must buy anything vaguely useful because their own product is so good it can compete on it's own strength. Right?
No UN conviction.
No IAEA proof.
No US proof.
Still the bankingcartels that own the US government and much more do think they need to press forward and hasten their collapse.
The US needs the oil, needs the resources.
The weapons thing is just another excuse as it was in Iraq.
And the people let it happen. War after war. Without approval from congress.
The empire is already falling but we don't see it.
$5/gallon is cheap.
We pay $7.5 a gallon NOW.
We are in Europe. In the so called socialist Netherlands.
Your country was designed wrong.
Gas guzzling cars. (still!) Cities with no real transportation infrastructure other than for cars. Large distances, even in cities.
How well will this work when gas hits $8?
Your cities need to be more compact. As do your cars. See the European and Japanese smaller cars. (small: weight is less than 1.5 metric tons)
Consider a diesel!
Duh, as if that was a surprise.
Now what do they really think will happen if they would sentence Manning and Assange?
Would their (USA) secrets be more safe due to this?
Nope. Plenty of people that can and will leak.
So it all depends on their (USA) security policy.
Not the theatre stuff we see from DHS, TSA in all types of places but the security policy in IT and on diplomatic levels.
So the USA lost to wikileaks and is pursueing something that will gain them nothing. Not even their honour.
Bill made software that got me stuck with his crappy product.
Windows (2003) and active directory do not offer nearly enough management knobs/tools/etc to straighten out even the simplest issues with active directory.
It doesn't show that sync stopped. (but it does beep on crashes of services, unstarted services, full disks, swap file, etc etc etc and do not forghet the windows updates that cream at ya to reboot again)
This overlooked corner makes windows unfit for the enterprise.
Now that Bill tries to do good, how much must he do to compensate?
Fundamental questions:
Why is it always the USA that comes up with these stupid ass legislations?
Be it (C) related (DMCA?), 'terror' (NDAA), or otherwise? It always has to be extreme and oh so right while we forget the recent history that led to these laws.
SOPA/PIPA: did we notice that the (C) terms are extended and extended each time beyond reasonable without a doubt?
Do we notice that the (C) cartels want this? Not the people?
Same for the so called anti-terror police state laws: no real benefit except for enslaving the people in the fiat money, two party system that paints the outside world as less than what they call themselves.
Ever thought why the USA has to police the world?
Ever thought where the 'socialist' europeans get their money from? (taxes!)
Ever thought about socialism for the rich? (it is called a bailout)
Ever thought about how all this happens?
"Put your data on a U.S.-based cloud, they warn, and you may just put it in the hands of the U.S. government."
As if there's any other way?
They (USA) even need our credit card transactions without sharing theirs.
(yes I am in the EU zone)
So in this war on terror that they cannot win what will be the next thing they need after our data?
The battlefield USA thing?
Do away with the constitution?
So it's truth w.r.t. the data.
Troops may leave, yes.
But the rest remains.
Do you think Obomba will leave the oil alone?
USA 'Foreign policy' is a chain of fake stuff that provokes severe retaliation; even after decades they don't get it.
Fluoride?

Only 19 million?
There's more americans on foodstamps!
So why would they need more than 3 Mbps? They have other priorities I'd guess.

I reserve my comment until after that guy fro http://fairewinds.com/updates/ has given us his analysis on this.
He KNOWS this stuff.
What about setting up a project to do offer live listening to sat phone feeds at ohm2013.org?

See http://wijvertrouwenstemcomputersniet.nl/blog/ for the Dutch story on voring machines. Yes, we were earlier to abondon the computers. We vote with a pencil.
You control that TV.
You can turn it off.

I suddenly remember the watre bottles they had at the HAR2009 conference.
See one of them here: http://chaos-darmstadt.de/cda/bilder/har2009/2009-08-16%2015.48.15.jpg
And now they made this forbidden.
Very scary.
This must be 1985.

I see:
- limited range
- low fuel economy
- high price

If you believe youtube, NASA did blur stuff on the moon to hide the presence and/or remnants of aliens or their stuff.
