It contains a brief admission that they're actually using it in conjunction with... you guessed it..wifi. So the solution they're rolling out first literally uses wifi. It acts as basically an extender to provide...wifi...
This tech operates at a much lower frequency (54 - 890 MHz), while WiFi operates at either 2.4GHz or 5GHz. Ground-based broadcasting stations can transmit the previous frequencies omnidirectionally at significantly longer ranges without line-of-site between transmission sources. Long-range WiFi transmission requires directional antennas, so wide area coverage requires a much greater investment in equipment as well as direct line-of-site between transmission points.
So then they should just call it "Where our television channels used to be-Fi".
(do not worry if its cm or inches or even fractional yards. its Not Our Problem if this does not fit YOUR pipe).
If you've ever worked with plumbing pipe or electrical conduit you know that the one thing that is guaranteed is that no matter what system of units is used, if it says it's a 3 it's going to be either bigger or smaller than 3.
what's wrong with my setting off a bomb on my own property?
Many things, beginning with your inability to absolutely prevent any of the noise, shrapnel, or things hot enough to start a fire from going beyond the property line.
but if you have a read of TFA, it says that along with the downloaded material, was a letter from a "24 year old man" (Asim Kauser is now 25),
So, since he's been in jail for two years, he wrote this note while in jail, and smuggled it out to an accomplice who then stole his flash drive from the evidence locker and put the file on it?
Is there any evidence this letter was actually mailed to anyone? emailed? anything?
Even assuming the letter was real, and the bozo had some intention of mailing it, wouldn't it have made more sense for the cops to have waited till it had been sent (monitoring the bozo all the while), responded to, and then they'd have one more potential problem that could be dealt with (since, after all, sending this letter to anyone seriously would sort of implicate the receiver in the plot, and perhaps even lead to more criminal-types) once and for all....
When they say jailed for two years, they don't mean for the last two years, they mean for the next two, as in yesterday he was given a two year sentence (which I assume began immediately).
The burglary only occured last June.
It's amazing how much more one can sometimes learn by R'ing TFA.
Unless you suggest we now somehow move six and a half million people from their homes, I do not see the difference between the questions. Maybe sometime in the past, but definitely not today.

How many Palestinians got moved from theirs from '48 until now?
If Jesus had been put on Earth as a mortal, to suffer the fate of all mortals, death by old age if nothing else gets you first, would that still have counted as having sacrificed His only son?
So Heaven will be "more perfect" for some than others?
Won't that affect their enjoyment of Heaven?
And if it doesn't because everything in Heaven is perfect (in the actual does not admit of degrees sense of the word), then doesn't it lose its deterrent effect?
If God is omnipotent, then He is capable of being omniscient, but if omniscient, is incapable of curiousity, and if incapable of anything, is not omnipotent.
There is a school of thought which holds that "An eye for an eye" is actually a restriction, i.e., the person who costs you an eye can be punished by the loss of an eye, but not by the loss of both eyes and one arm, or by execution.
Of course, that ignores the question of the "rightness" of making the desert bloom in the first place.*
If it was supposed to bloom, maybe it wouldn't have been desert.
Interesting link, though. Thanks.
*One of the justifications/rationalizations for killing the Native Americans and taking their lands, or pretending that the land was just there for the taking and that the Native Americans had no right or reason to object, was the Euro-centric viewpoint that cutting down the forests and turning it into farmland or otherwise "improving" the land was somehow more "virtuous" than the way the original inhabitants treated and used it. which of course meant that God wanted it that way, and if you didn't believe it, they had well-trained priests and preachers to tell you that it was so.
You are confusing the question of whether the Nation of Israel has a right to exist ( and I don't see why not) with the question of where the Nation of Israel has a right to exist.
And now it means you said something AIPAC didn't like.
Which has nothing to do with the thoroughly objectionable SSID on the router in the article.
However, what they need to investigate is the idiot who obviously left the default password on the router, which is no doubt how a person of great immaturity was able to demonstrate their lack of imagination and the deficient parenting which they have received.

So they should just call it Wi-Fi Helper!
I'm sure General Mills's lawyers won't mind.

this pipe is diameter of 3.
it should fit your pipe if it also measures 3.

No, they're mostly a bunch of idiots as well.
I was going to say, "Look at my ID#", then I realized I'm a bit newer than '5733'. Tell me, what was primordial Earth like? :)
Well, as long as you kept out of the way of the dinosaur stampedes...
But I'm still convinced that fire is just a passing fad.
But seriously, it's only been a little over 13 years.
Which, now that I think about it, means that Slashdot is entering adolescence.
Hmm. This may not end well.
The term you're looking for is Intention.
Not conspiracy. Conspiracy requires multiple parties.
None of whom have to communicate with each other, according to the prosecution in the Chicago 7 trial.
You're on /. You have no idea where the vagina is.
Of course I do, it's just north of the calinas.

How dare you read TFA and talk sense...you should be banned.

So there's still a good reason to learn COBOL?
Clarke's short stories should not be overlooked.
I particularly recommend "I Remember Babylon".
Yeah, we missed it by only 2 counties.
"...given the options at the time he was probably Eastern Europe's best hope for peace."
One wonders if that might not have had something to do with his having been assasinated.
Some people consider peace bad for business.
"Where do you suppose the giants thought they were standing?"
Dude, everybody knows it's turtles all the way down.

Would that be the third 50%?

No, "anti-semetic" has always meant "anti-Jewish", not including just anyone who's "Semitic".
So why didn't they just call it Anti-Jewish? Was it coined by those who didn't know that not all Semites are Jews?
Of course, that ignores the question of the "rightness" of making the desert bloom in the first place.*
