Does not matter to us. Bush said that we could listen to all conversations and we do.
With that said, you do not have to tell all your friends about this. And yes, your mom went on to tell Harriet, her new beautician that you are sounding more and more tin foilish. Our suggestion is that you drop such silly conversations.
They are now listening in and converting Voice to Text. I suspect that they are using an AI to figure out the heurestics of converting voice to Text. At some point, that will be useful in a number of new areas. Not just better transcription, but will be EXTREMELY useful for selling products to the Feds. Want to know exactly what Abdula is saying to his Cousin Obama in Pakistan or Saudi Arabia? Of course, that will lead to new translators as well. It could convert nicely from Arabic to English.
And that is just a few. So, relax, they are coming. In fact, the nice thing is that we have a great deal of the infrastructure for doing the moon with these, combined with Bigelow, within 5-8 years. While Armadillo and Blue Origin does not really make sense for launching heavy cargo on earth, it DOES make LOTS of sense for a moon transporter.
Do expect that they sometimes travel to other countries.
I was going to suggest this, then realized his users are likely to be Americans.
The funny thing is, that this is true of all large countrys citizens that do not live near a border. For example, how many ppl in France, German, or even England go into Africa? Or America? Or Australia? All of the Michigan , Wisconson, Minnesota folks I know HAVE been into Canada. Likewise, all the West Texas, NM, Southern CO, AZ, Southern Nevada, Southern CA ppl that I know have also hit Mexico. The ppl that have never been out of the country tend to be those in the middle. Of course, they have all traveled more than 1000KM away. And the simple fact is, that for us Coloradoans, we see major cultural differences . The difference between a West Canadian vs East Candian has about the same difference; Love their country, but different mind sets.
What is funny, is that it get the average EU person to travel similar differences would mean that they travel from Western europe into just east of middle Africa, or that they go into the middle east, OR that they go into central africa. How many do that? Damn few. And South Americans do even less traveling.
that MS is reading that posting, now that it is on/..
Most likely, they are contracting MCP's and backing off the money issue. I would also guess that they are trying to make certain that plenty of low costs software is running around there about now, that will remain low costs while OSS looks to gain a toehold. All this will be funded by American companies and American's.
Gee thats odd. The only place that I use Windows at is on a contract. Everytime that some a**hole "locks" it down, I just use Linux on a USB drive, reboot, and install what I need. That is not real security. And that will continue to happen on ALL OSs until companies realize that allowing bootable USB drives is a mistake. Yes, now, they are starting to encrypt drives. Give it time.
And from what I have seen, there is no well setup network in the business world. There are admins that FOOL THEMSELVES. Typically in those set-ups, they have locked it down so that the average person can not really work, but the cracker on the network can and will steal what they want.
Yo, kiddy. That is what RPM, apt, etc is designed to do. The original poster asked about POLICY ENFORCEMENT. That is required in an MS world BECAUSE of their no real security. In *nix, it starts that way (though it did not use to be). And as for moving a system from one dept to another, tell me where you have seen a Windows box do that? None that I have seen. It it possible, but no company does that. OTH, using RPM/APT as well as the standard networking setups, Linux is "self-policizing".
What the funding should go towards is creating weapons that do effectively just as much damage without the radiation fallout.
We can do like China and move our nuke weapons to Neutron bombs. VERY little fallout, and little chance of destroying the earth. Of course, that is VERY useful offensive weapon, where as a dirty nuke is ONLY for defense.
MAD only works if neither side can stop the other. When one side can take out all your sats, is actively blowing them out of LEO in practice runs, is actively trying to place spies on the other side to gain knowledge as well as be able to shut down infrastructure, then you have a problem AND you are building neutron bombs (which really limit fallout, but causes maximum human damage). Basically, you have a situation where that side is gearing up to attack.
And people wonder why I think the best way to secure peace is to get rid of the US... I know. We Americans have CAUSED SO MANY WARS OVER THE CENTURIES. Why we caused Iraq to invade Kuwait, Argentina to invade Falkland Islands, Iran to invade Iraq, France to colonize Vietnam, North Korea to invade South Korea, Germany and Japan to invade EU and China, Germany to invade the rest of the Europe, etc. Heck, we even caused the Crusades. Bad America. Bad, bad, bad.
When the world was in a great depression all during the 30s, it certainly kept away the fascists and tyrannical govs that would attack other nations to avoid their own internal issues.
the other 4 launches that North Korea did claiming it to be about satellites showed that they were missle launches (as in distance), not straight up and down for a rocket. previous Truthfullness plays a big part of it. As it is, they have built one nuke that did not work correctly, but almost certainly showed enough that they could finish it.
China has built a "secret sub base" that they are trying to use to hide their subs and counts (they currently PRODUCE 2-4 new nukes subs each year; that means that they have a factory for these spitting them; at this time, China is though to have 12 new nuke subs from the last 5 years). The one nice thing about that base is that it is underground entrance and is basically a grotto. I am thinking that the west needs to spend some money on doing similar things. It may sounds like a lot of money, but countries that want to dominate the west will simply do a perl harbor on all the nicely mapped out bases. OTH, if underground entrances and we know what subs are in the area, then we can keep quiet when and where our subs are.
Problem is, you are talking about HUMAN RANGE. It is quite possible for other forms of life to live over much broader range of specs. What is will come to, is if a planet has life, we will probably only figure it out IFF it the planet is similar to us, or if life has made it to similar or further on the evolutionary scale.
TO be honest, it really did not matter. I was simply being funny. Mississippi is almost certainly int the bottom 3, while Tx trends in the bottom 5. But since CO and Tx have a running thing between them (ever since we kicked their butt in the civil war), I was simply using them.
We had a working computer system, and then owens brought in his friends to do a 6 year makeover of it. When he left is STILL had major issues, and the dems brought in THEIR ppl. The problem is that the head of OIT is as inept as Ritter is. From some of my friends at TWI, they tell me that he was a total idiot, but a politician. WHile Colorado had a great infrastructure in place at one time, between Owens and now ritter it is being gutted fast. TOO FAST.

What makes you think that Google didn't just buy this technology FROM the Feds?
I have worked with various agencies of the feds.

I would sat that the Marshall plan combined with NATO and the threat of USSR brought peace to there.

Yeah, I think that it is a wise thing for us to drop our space detection and our nuke missles, because we know that nobody else would dare to build up for war.

We are MS. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.
Why if they were power hungry, they would be
Yeah, thank God that Google is not that bad.
the interesting one is China. It is the only one in which more women then men. But yeah, Japan is pretty high.

yes; most reports add DC in and count it as a state.
I have lived here since 79, and I HAVE seen those stickers. And it was a big issue around 2002-3. Owens was trying to cut the education spending.
Neither Texas nor Mississippi care. Nobody can read the reports that indicate that they are tied at 50th.
