This is a far fetch to prove a society existed. I am not saying it is not possible, but this evidence is hardly that. Traces of charcoal and a guess at finding pollen samples at the bottom of a small lake has many obvious problems. There are other ways for both to get there into the sample of a small plug. There is difficulty determining the actual time it took to get there.
When I was in grade school, teachers would often make questions like these and often as the last on exams. This is not outrageous. This questions clearly helps the student asking them to examine the clues. If a plane crashes on the border of two countries, where are the survivors buried?
Leave the cable, but I personally would use it to get reception if it runs to the basement by hooking up an antenna to for over the air signals. It may be neat to experiment signal processing with. OTA usb adapters are cheap.
Um, this isn't about flying cars or Uber not sitting in the same traffic Slashdot. Get it together. The point is that Uber is using drones to advertise to anyone sitting in traffic. Another point is that there could be less traffic if more drivers car pooled. The silly comment following the article summary is poorly misleading.
The lossy is not an issue comment may come close to answering the question...
however, I do not think anyone answered the question... the person wants to have the tapes digitized to a lossless format for archiving. This implies post editing without MORE degradation than the tape already has. The question also implies creating a digital copy that in 15 or 30 years, has a chance of being playable on a PC or some digital media player.
I would also like to know of a lossless video/audio codec and maybe a freeware piece of software that can grab the stream from a video capture card to edit and store video. I use a Happauge USB TV tuner card to capture video from a VHS player or a passthrough on a DVD player from my VHS-C player. I capture to DVD quality recordings but one it is digitized, I find it difficult to find a frame editor to trim the video. I have not tried post editing color or audio in the movies, I only wanted them to be playable as-is in the future, not clean them up.
Personally, I keep old compressed VMs and some basic instructions around to allow for reinstallation of old Windows software and old media playing software for most of my stored digital content. The instructions include gaining access to external storage drives outside the VMs or to access cd and dvd images in the forms of ISO files.
Our local library has a subscription to Ancestry.com and the site is Extremely useful. I use it and sometimes only donate a few bucks here and there in support of my local library. I am certain to sign the visitor book to ensure they get more funding from the local gov. The site is worth every penny but this is only obvious after you spend some time understanding what to expect from it. This site is to help with researching data stored in specific archived sources transcribed by volunteers and other paid staff. They also house submitted family research done by your family embers or distant relatives.
For someone to do research specifically for your close family, epxect to pay roughly 10-50 dollars and hour for some volunteers to look up specific information.You usually have to find the volunteers yourself in the county you suspect your relative was from.
No software like Graps or Family Tree maker will just do research for you. It will help document your findings and it will help publish your findings neatly into various trees, books, charts, timelines... whatever. Family Tree Maker attempts to match your recorded data to what has already been submitted and rate the returns for you however that info is not always so easy for a beginner to determin the accuracy.
Finally, I suggest asking your local hostorian or fellow family history center patron what they use, which local library has a subscription and what software they use. My local library even provides computers to access the site and Family Tree Maker to store you found data to a file you can take with you on a USB stick for later use.
It is only a small percentage of a scientific community (those that probably scream the loudest and fear there may actually be a God) that actually beleived 'neanderthals' were stupid. Most of history shows people who lived before us were fairly creative, and smart building upon what they had before them.
Have every attendee register all equipment on a master list (paper and pen) upon entering. Ensure when people leave they have everything they came with and nothing more, and show contents of all bags. Have a roll call before people leave to demonstrate they have everything of theirs that is on the list. Provide some sticker labels or black magic markers to label some equipment that may not have serials.
Announce that you are not responsible for items lost or stolen but are doing this to be very helpful. I agree with teh contracts ideas if you have time.
Registering alone will discourage theft. Checking bags on the way out will further deter. Ensure you have IDs for all who attend so to track down anyone who may not have checked out properly. Generally, guards may not be necessary because anything stolen may be cheap enough to handle through small claims court and not worth the expense of guards or extra burdens.
Those without drivers should bring a student ID or parental/guardian verification which is good for any other legal reasons.

Wait, I see Attack in the heading, as in some other entity forces the downgrade.
So you can downgrade your phone to remove bugfixes and ilet it be exposed to known issues? Is there a point here I am missing?

What do these arrests cost without drone use? What do the arrests save from otherwise criminal behavior?

This study may neglect to mention the benefits of advertising and exposure even if only ten people found the bugs.
