Considering the shit this administration has pulled against the Israeli's I think they'd hand them shit and more shit. Why should they make them look good by giving them any intel?
I got my Buffalo router before patent trolls banned it. Buffalo seems to have paid the 'rogeld and are still making them. I put DD-wrt on it. It's never quit on me.
I do not play with the clowd clowns I own my own hardware and software. I do not walk in the valley of DRM. I do not beg to receive the fruits of my labors from datachangers. I shall not want.
Our government is the most expensive in the world. Do not make the mistake of separating the military from government. The waste inherent in it is a symptom not of the military but excessive government.
to clarify Raytheon did the digitizing and had a high dollar 'librarian' with several masters degrees oversee the library system. Hughes was a geriatric Alzheimer's patient in comparison.
Hughes would compartmentalize documentation on how to manufacture everything. There software had similar fragmentation in the source code. To collect all the documents would require having access to the root document which would then lead to the first level. Then would come tertiary and quaternary levels. There is NO centralized list of all the documents needed, you MUST parse every sheet of paper.
I recall one gasket for a keyboard for some aircraft system they'd installed in the mesozoic era. When Raytheon absorbed and gagged on them they'd done an incredible job of digitizing and indexing all of that documentation. Even with that Herculean effort the drawing on how to make the gasket which had dimensions and the material was completely lost. The government did not afai could find out had never gotten complete plans for that system. They had to recreate that piece of paper at a cost of 55,000 dollars.
Nah, don't think Raytheon is all puppies and kittens, they're just more efficient at sucking money out of government.
Nope, a second is the time it takes for a politician to determine they need to steal more of your money for the good of the government. It keeps getting shorter.
Law enforcement has traditionally gone after low hanging fruit. They don't like pissing off the really nasty ones who would kill them, their families and their cat Fluffy. They're fishing for justification to continue to exist. That's what all the terrorist crap is about and why they'll continue to expand domestic crimes as terrorism.
Soon it will be illegal to report on crop failures, droughts, civic unrest, midnight arrests etc. etc. as that will be facilitating terrorism.
How often does that happen? How often can you get a best selling author to sign another best selling author's novel.;)
It would be novelty value that boosts it's value a little.
Better is finding a copy of an established authors porn he wrote when poor and get him to sign it. I've held it now for a few years till his fame has grown and when he gets a best seller I'm putting it on ebay!:-D
David is so popular now it's impossible buy a signed copy from him. I've tried like hell to get other authors to sign his books and vice versa. If I'd gotten John Ringo to do it. FWOOM PROFIT!
I did the same damn thing to Borders going to the better Seattle's best coffee shop in the back.
B&N can go the way of Borders. Both are dull witted, slow, restrictive, constricting, narrow minded 'book' stores that were a stifling influence on books and book publishing.
It's only a problem where road salt is heavily used and is mitigated by active electrical systems. In Indiana the iron girders in bridges and rebar in concrete roads are protected by such systems. We've migrated several roads to asphalt because concrete has a higher initial cost though even with the extra protection it's long term cost is lower. The short sightedness of bureaucrats at work. Our road maintenance costs are higher than states that do not need to use road salts. Tennessee has beautiful interstates that have seen little repair since their creation in some areas.
Physically hack the monitor get some light blocking film or use sunglasses.
Techno hack the monitor to do current dimming rather than PWM dimming. This of course will screw the colors to hell and gone.
Techno hack the monitor's LED backlight array so you can turn off some of the LED or replace the LED array with something not as bright or with more LEDs and the ability to turn them off individually.
Techno hack the monitor's LCD backlight by placing an LCD shutter over the LED and use that to dim it.
Or you can go whine about it on slashdot.
*Techno hack, sorry about that but I felt the real term was too rich and nuanced for the author.
They won't take silver notes. They won't take some precious coins. They may take silver dimes and quarters at face value. They base this on a snarling rats nest of US laws.
I like my hand hacked python front end that calls whatever is needed to play the music I pick. All of it's command line players which are sox, flac, ogg123, mpg321 etc etc even some rooshin abomination send by the evil commies to seduce me with Russian DISCO!
I thought he did fairly well at playing a broke down sheriff in a small town in Last Stand. It was not perfect and I'm not sure of budget or take. I rented it.;)
It will sell games to guys. Figure out what thing you can stick in your game companies cubicle other than a generic robot and a pasty faced smile.
I suggest a pony with rainbow colored mane. That will draw women and bronies and probably some furries though I may have them confused with zoophiles. That should boost up your coverage to 50% of gamers. You cannot lose.
Google is dumbing down and de-inventing itself, closing up, monetizing and ossifying. Facebook wants to be Google yet NotGoogle. Apple wants to suck off the unconvicted criminals at Intel some more rather than do any hardware innovation.
All of them suck off the NSA on command.
I don't see anything but the tinker groups who are doing anything cool with a chance of being the next big thing. 3D printing and various microcontroller hacking has a lot of potential but there are other types of tinkers and I'm sure we'll hear from them soon.
What we won't see is: Good acting from the cast other than Arnold. Good script Tastefully and expertly used CGI Good script A final ending to the madness!

It's got shit in it.

A hit and run is NEVER an accident, quit spreading that filth. It's felony manslaughter at minimum.
Slashdot spewing nytimes paid pablum? Will pro-government shills be next?

They will not be able to resist 24/7 DRM. Wait 5 years before buying it and see if I'm wrong. :)
They're exactly as evil as Sony but not quite as stupid about it.

I never understood how they were going to monetize that. There were enough players that were good enough and free that I didn't see the point.
Yep he sure sucked which is why his movies make so much money.
It's like writers who vomit out a decalogy that suck yet become billionaires. ;)
YES PAYCHECK! YES! CGI PLASTIQUE SURGERY!
What we won't see is:
