The streaming is heavily skewed to boring, hyper-commercial new releases
It's actually even worse. New releases usually aren't available on the streaming service. So, its more like hyper-commercial year-old and older releases.
Then the police will come, and I presume you would also shoot at them. Then they will put you down and the world will have one less jackass to deal with.
They owe you nothing. If you convince yourself that you don't have to pay for entertainment, then you will be surprised when their lawyers come-a-knocking.
I'm not saying it's right, but they don't give a fsck about you or what you think. You REALLY want to stick it to them? Read a book.
Sorry, I just don't think that's true. I have no idea if Broadcom is subsidizing the RaspberryPi components, but they could if they wanted to. "Subsidize" doesn't necessarily mean "free"
I think the big take away from his insights was that the root of this evil was the corruption that consumed the NSA, and the pressure to send money out to the military industrial complex that surrounds government agencies.
It seems to me, in the context of this article, that the security religion is used as a veil to hide that corruption. By now, they may be using doublethink to believe their own lies, but that is the root cause. To fix it, we have to remove the dirty ties between the NSA and the MIC.
He repeatedly said in his talk that no matter what he did to solve a problem, he was never allowed to call it solved. There was always more at stake, more danger around the corner that would be used to scare Congress into spending more money. As he said... keep the problem going so the money keeps flowing.
Since we're on the subject -- NetBSD is being ported to the RaspberryPi, despite all the roadblocks in place to do so. (RPi is not an open platform) It is booting to multiuser in test code. See hubertf's post on the subject. I intend to help test as soon as my unit arrives.
I thought that the API for a compass in a smartphone really just supplied a bearing, but I'll assume they are assuming access to the raw data that comes from the hardware.
Still, are these magnetometers anywhere close to sensitive enough? I would think they are built to be as cheap as possible. I would expect them to be only accurate enough to determine which side of the road you're facing. This application must require amazing accuracy. I'd be amazed if they can get it out of a smartphone.
People who bring up the whitespace issue are noobs.
The nice things about Python are the clean syntax, multiparadigm design, batteries-included library, the PEP system, and the strong community (django, SciPy, etc)
Really, It's amazing to me that they can combine major features of functional programming, OOP, and scripting into a single language and yet keep it sane.
Interesting idea but it seems too unlike Apple to get into that kind of business. Methinks they would rather let aftermarket firms license the dock interface and make people buy regular old iPads.
I think Surface is meant to compete directly with the iPad (Nexus7 and Kindle less so). I agree with grandparent, this seems like a shot across the Google's nose.

Wrong. The airplanes that carry the rest of us around are tracked in the public domain. These guys are tracking airplanes, not people.
... is DRIVERS!!! Good luck getting real open source drivers out of Nvidia, ATI/AMD, and Intel for their graphics hardware.

I gave my parents Roku for Netflix.

I believe they already do. Google "Lilyhammer"
You must be from Hollywood.
I want the biggest screen that fits comfortable in my pocket. Thin and light would be good, too.
I agreed until you said that Obama is sticking out of the corporation's pockets. False.

You're right, I don't have a clue what NSA does inside. However, William Binney DOES. He worked there for many years. I'm just repeating what he said.

It was a good talk. I found it interesting.

Well, at least not better overall. Each solution may be more suited to solving a particular problem. You can also use both, or neither!

When I got my order invitation a few weeks ago, they offered plastic cases of various colors with the RPi. I ordered a clear case.
Because over a very long tunnel (say, 1000km) the energy to generate those pressure waves would be unattainable.

He claims JAPAN-ONLY fullsets. If the game wasn't released in Japan, he didn't include.

Yes, this raised my eyebrow. Probably should have said something like C/C++, Perl, and Java.
That's a feature, not a bug.
But, um, isn't this post something like 5 years late?
