this would be difficult for any nationalities whose population has a physical tendency not to form words all that clearly... us Australians for example - classics at speaking without moving the jaw and lips much at all. Half of us could be mistaken for ventriloquists.
And I can't imagine how they'd be able to adapt this technology to Asian folks who typically use very different physical movements to pronounce some english words/letters... case in point: they seem to have issues with pronouncing words containing the letters L and R from what I've heard.
"The Contest is open only to residents of the U.S. and Canada..."
well bugger that. Here I was expecting an all-expenses-paid-for-round-the-world-trip, but no... I can't even make an "all I got was this lousy t-shirt" comment.
Hmm - perhaps if the web brower's anti-phishing plugins could ring alarm bells if it detected the string of ".bank" with anything but a / (or null character) after it... that could work.
eg:
IE says this is a bad url and cries out: www.mybank.bank.phising.com
and this is a good url: www.mybank.bank
and this is a good url: www.mybank.bank/
and this is a good url: www.mybank.bank/freemoney
sell domain names... no company.. until they see a need... no need until network exists
This is exactly the catch-22 surrounding the IPv6-rollout to end-users. A company/ISP generally won't invest unless there's customer demand. Customer demand doesn't exist until a company publicises a service generally for the masses.
The product usually has to result in immediate or direct profits for a company to invest without a prospective customer-base already demanding it. IPv6 in itself does not generate profits. How can this VR network?
In my opinion a network dedicated to VR is moot - its just a transport, and we've already got the transports in place.
This VR setup should be client-server based. The visual/interactive componentry is installed on the client, everything else on the server - just like normal modern web browsers. Just like World of Warcraft. Just like any other game client.
What kind of loon would stream the GL / DirectX visuals over a network like this appears to be?
Even Tom Clancy's NetForce internet browsing (futuristic 3d visuals on the global superhighway crap) would be client-based.
On this occasion the answer IS in the box, not the band.
me (the 'Dan' that replied to the article on that site) said this:
bah... i work for a major.au ISP and i would argue that the users use their "favourite applications" for sharing ILLEGAL software - hence it probably won't catch on with any ISP, UNLESS someone creates a new 'killer service' to satisfy this great new isp-based p2p seeding capability.
I can say right now that all that is needed for ISPs to provide GREAT service levels to customers for LEGITIMATE application use (web2.0 + video stuff, etc), is to simply throttle back the amount of illegal file trading activities - which is what we're doing!
It seems to me that this technology is simply providing a solution to a problem that doesn't quite exist yet.
Indeed, the ISP I work for has "lawful interception" routers all over the country (.au). They can snoop whenever they want (within reason and the law of course). Nothing new here, move along.
ahah yes, to find another job - like creating a total disaster and then suggesting that you be employed in the role of disaster recovery and security administration?
i would!

Perfect excuse for an Arachnid Whacking Day if ever I heard one.
