News and historical revisionism is all part of the CCP's modus operandi. To them, it's one of many tools to control society and socially architect a future generation mindset.
It's been in the works for quite some time now. There's the serf class, and then there's the political class. What's old has become new again. Make no mistake about it. American Exceptionalim is just that; an exception, a brief moment in time against the natural state of mankind. That natural state is oppression against those outside our immediate sphere of associations (read the Monkey Sphere).
I'm privileged to be born in this era of humanity. Not many get to taste freedom while it lasts.
Is there any way to cover those costs of R&D while still making this stuff available to, you know, everyone?
If the medical industry was ran like any other industry (agriculture, automotive, computer software/hardware...etc), sure. In theory, yes, it would scale.
Unfortunately the medical community is faced with two major problems. The first being that every human being on this planet is unique. While there are some basic fundamentals to human anatomy, providing the right care is custom to each person that needs it. As such, it requires skilled personnel harboring vast knowledge and experience. You can pretty much write off automation as a means of reducing costs. Second, every doctor is under the microscope legally and financially to cover any costs of being sued for malpractice. Checks and balances are good, but sometimes they're way to overburden-some. Ok...so add a third. Politics. No one is going to sign off on tort reform that would lower the costs of healthcare for everyone. FYI, I'm talking about major surgeries here, not lower-skilled minor emergency stuff (though equally important if not more so).
So what's the solution? Aside from the political/legal reform, I don't have one. If you don't want to adhere to the laws of supply and demand, rationing is your only option via lottery. And no, you can't force a doctor into indentured servitude for a fixed cost.
They're professionals in that they get the job done. While the premise behind the mission may be flawed including invalid targets, the soldiers are professional in that they see to it that the mission gets executed from beginning to end.
As for killing the "wrong" people. First and foremost, they're not people, they're targets. Even civilians are avoidable-targets. They're not the goal, and all attempts should be made to avoid killing them. But, the military will make that risk-assessment from a broader POV. In the end, they're cold-blooded. They have to be. They're the military, not doctors whom have already taken the Hippocratic Oath.
Heart problems run in my family too, both sides of it. The "curse" will one day be the death of me. But all that aside, how could someone such as yourself lambast the USA for its healthcare? Especially in the field of heart care and research!!! You of all people should be fully aware of the following bits of information.
1. American Heart Association. It's American, and they deal with heart care. 2. More heart surgeries are performed in Houston, TX than any place in the entire WORLD! 3. In 1996, Dr. DeBakey (from Houston, TX) performed open heart surgery for Boris Yeltsin after his Russian doctors said he would die if put under the knife. In 1973, he operated on Mstislav V. Keldysh whom happens to be a nuclear scientist. In 1973, during the cold-war, under communist/Marxist ideology of all things!!!
So, when your heart starts to give out, and you feel breathless, are you gonna fucking bitch about the evil American capitalistic system? No, you're going to quietly and thankfully STFU in that you've been the beneficiary of countless hours of R&D and people whom acted as the test-subject before you (they don't mind as they didn't have choice, except to die).
Those are all post-processing up-scaling effects. But they do have limitations in that even the pixels themselves can still be made out. Obfuscating them only goes so far. But with this new technique, they're pure vectors. They will scale infinitely with splines to match your screen resolution, much like fonts.
Phone support. The moment you release a new firmware to the masses, there will be an influx in phone support. Now imagine needing to train your entire monkey-script reading staff on how to admin and setup IP6 rules on a router just to troubleshoot the device.
People's time cost money. Forget the hardware, that can be stamped out like potato chips. It's peoples TIME that costs money. They don't want to eat the cost that will cut right through their profit. The initial price of that router already factored in limited post-sales support, which I assure you was never factored into support for a future protocol not listed on the retail box.
And they won't because either the equipment is EOLed, or too much CPU or memory overhead to implement.The reason is because were not talking about an incremental firmware update, but an entirely new stack having to be re-written and tested prior to release. This requires man-hours and must be accounted for. Given how cheap this hardware is compared to the cost of paying employees, they certainly won't be eating the cost to provide IP6 upgrades for free.
So you basically have two options. Throw away the hardware to that bottomless pit we call a landfill, or provide a purchased upgrade path. I remember back in the day that some 33.6k, KFlex and X2 modems had the option for upgrading to the new v.90 standard...for a few if purchase prior to the cut-off date. For the same model purchase after the cut-off date, the upgrade was free.
Worse. The data gets dumped at the nearest gas station and thus mailed the fine, time, and place for a visit to the courthouse.
Version 2.0 will tie directly into the electronic throttle body. When that black box detects you're in a 55Mph (Kph for rest of the world) via GPS data, it will electronically limit and throttle down the speed for you. No, it won't put the brakes on, just let you coast till you reach the hard limit.
Version 3.0 will be like minority report. Freedom to drive = freedom to kill others. Read your iPad or something, citizen!
If I had to guess, the Judicial branch will let it slide because such products and services were not endorsed by the Federal Government. Carry on Cisco, business as usual.
However, the aftermath of this might involve legislation to prevent future exportation of technology to be used in this manor...exceeeeeppt, you can still sell it inside the US.
As someone who used to play Ikari Warriors for eight hours straight, my thoughts are that I think it has more to do with the brain consuming more energy under heavy processing. However, the food you already have eaten prior to playing still hasn't been fully digested yet. If gamers would just take a break now and then to allow for a nice mental recharge, they wouldn't be grabbing for the Cheetos as often.
If you can reach the source via RDP, than it must be a hacked webserver (SQL injection attack most likely). It takes effort to port-forward 3389. If in fact it's a home network, than I doubt it's a bot. Such activity would normally not go unnoticed by someone that network savvy. Or so, that's been experience.
My thoughts exactly. It's too risky rolling the dice on something as toxic as CP. Even if you scrub your drives (or tossed them in the trash), your public IP may lead the feds to your house, and in further trouble via destruction of evidence. Even if they don't nail you on CP charges, you will be griefed for the rest of your natural life. Being inflicted with a Federal Gov equivalent of "paper terrorism" is enough to bleed you financially dry from defense attorney fees. Either way, at the end of the day, they will get their pound of flesh!
As long as you backed up all that data some place else, everything will be alright. Even if you didn't, oh well. But think about this. The stuff we use for storage today will be obsolete in 40+ years anyways. Storage hardware is a moving target. Make sure any data of value moves along with it.
Well my fellow Houstonian, I've wondered why our city wasn't on the list. Then I realized how everyone drives on 290 and 610 up to 80Mph while drafting other drivers. People talk of NASCAR, but sure as hell, we live it every freaking day!
2) Stupid Users- people who have been trained to download anything from anywhere and just run it. OSX, like Windows, is vulnerable to both, because the software distribution model is totally broken.
The freedom to download comes with great responsibility. Unless you want to live in a completely closed and audited environment, there will always been the PEBKAC!
I'm sure some advanced alien world (close to our level) is experiencing the exact same issue out there some bajillion lightyears away. I have no clue what computers or type of network they use. But PEBKAC has to be a universal constant with advanced civilizations.
I would like to think that a millions+ years of evolution have come to adapt to the pulsating heartbeat by relying on its effects. Perhaps the stretching effect on veins and arteries helps prevent clotting from occurring.

Because it's the WHO. Among some people, they will not ignore what the WHO has said. It's sort of like the Pope giving his blessing or warning.

So then it would be iFog?
That's what she said.
To let you know that, no matter where you live, you will always get fucked in the ass.
Even a Etch A Sketch is prone to data loss. A stupid person my flip it upside down while laying on their back in bed.
