Dig a little deeper than Fox not-News propaganda and you find this "That last sentence is exactly the what many critics find fault in the DhammakÄya Movement: give enough money for charity (preferably to DhammakÄya) and you might also reincarnate with your personal living space that coincidentally resembles an Apple Store and with your own personal Geniusesâ¦erm, I mean servants!" http://asiancorrespondent.com/87995/thai-buddhist-cult-claims-to-know-afterlife-of-steve-jobs/.
You to can get them to make claims about employees of an douche company as a, surprise, surprise, surprise, Apple publicity stunt if you donate enough money. Apple is really developing a decidedly off stench about it, much the same as a festering rotting corpse.
Instructional courses for US politicians about not sending out US soldiers to fight for profit corporate wars. Lesson being made available to both the US Senate and Congress, additional courses for other countries caught up in the military industrial complex homicidal destruction derby.
Just an insane worms and a rotten core visible from the outside and your done. Everyone knows exactly what this is all about Apple use corruption of the court system and patents to squeeze out an inflated profit margins from a spoilt brat fashion product, for as long as psychopathically possible. Not that Google should be given free reign, those privacy invasive buggers also need to kept a very close watch on. Who would have thunk it, Apple worse than M$, even with Uncle Fester at the helm, makes you really want to take a much closer look at the Apple Board, they are worse than Uncle Fester and Co, crikey.
First step in creating the add-hoc network is to think like a business administrator rather than a network administrator. First question is how can I achieve funding and assistance for this project. Would the Federal government have avenues open for providing financial support. Would the military be interested in providing technical support as they are also interested in providing ad hoc networks in the field to share information and emergency vehicles in the field would provide a valuable test bed for them. Would any local universities or even universities more far afield be interested in providing technical assistance, they gain field research opportunities whilst providing you with technical assistance and hardware.
So asking questions on slashdot is a good start to asking more questions from people further afield. The University route could prove the easiest as they already have the contacts in place for federal and military funding and assistance in place. Start with a few phones and emails to sound people out and then make more formal applications with the support of your local community and organisation. Avoid private industry assistance as your likely to run into asshats that will just bleed dry what ever funding you manage to gather leaving you with non-functional system.
Space salvage would likely be similar to sea salvage. Once they are out of control the are open for capture and control because of the risk they represent to other satellites. Self destruct would be frowned upon as an open act of war due to shrapnel's ability to many other satellites including the space station at random. This would include spy satellites, either keep control, get them out of orbit, repair them or salvage them. Capture techniques are simplified in space because you have plenty of time to apply inertial energy to the satellites to get them to a capture point at acceptable motions and velocities, so even powerful electro magnetic fields and electricity generating solar sails with vector attitude adjustment would work.
Beep...Beep...Beep. Thats the sound a satelite makes as it passes over head. Yes, Linux is a Kernal, which anyone and everyone is free to use as long as they adhere to the open source copyright rules governing it. Reality is, yes it is a, Linux Distro, it just doesn't look like the other ones. Those other Linux Distros are free to incorporate a compatibility layer to allow Android apps to run on their distro's and the likes of M$ are also free to make use of the Linux Kernal in ways they see fit as long as they adhere to he open source copyright rules associated with it, as they in they know would say "GNU YOU!";).
A whole bunch of prior art ignored in the court case marks you as a typical lying Apple marketdroid. Apple invents nothing, makes nothing, and basically steals everything they simply have the worst example of PR=B$ working 24/7, sicken worthless individuals contaminating the tech biosphere adding value to nothing. More and more people loath Apple by the day, a company load with slimey worms and rotten to the core and that's death to fad products, products that are already seen as tasteless spoilt brat fashion.
As for Linux's share of the desktop, well, everyone knows as long as you continue to count all dual boots as windows and all OS free hardware as nothing, then Linux will continue with a far smaller market share in mass media fantasy than in actual reality.
Both Apple and M$ wet their pants in fear of Android and Android is Linux.
We all can distinguish between government and corporations. When corporations do it, often it is far, far worse. When governments do it, there is a whole layer of accountability which means, that the elected types will always end up being stabbed in the back and exposed.
The reality if course the true reality is of course governments can not do most of this shit without the fully comply and collusory assistance of select corporations.
Just look at all those corporation who has assisted despots in the worst schemes imaginable as long as the corporations were getting a profit.
Snark - "My God Man, don't you know Corporations would kill us all if there was a profit in it", unfortunately there is not as much humour in that as there should be.
Ohhh, but you take it so well, I am surprised you didn't fire back with that whole war attack everyone kill, kill, kill stuff.
Perhaps you missed it but the bulk of the geek/nerd computer/internet types see themselves as more openly globalist and always really take the piss out of cheeto munching red neck morons we all share in our respective countries.
Not 'ALL' Americans are mocked regardless of your distortion, only the specific knee jerk reactionary asshats that we universally share. Those psychopathic corporate douche's don't infest 'MULTI-NATIONAL' corporations for no reason, you know.
THEMS versus US, is crap for the 'belchers' the mass media sheep. It's OK for foreigners to insult Americans because like free speech, I mean really has the whole caribou barbie version of free speech blown a blood vessel or two.
Gees way to go with the bull buddy, from the court case itself, the jury said - "Like dude, all the prior art stuff, there was just to too much to deal with. It like made our brains hurt and the boss jury dude said, meh we can ignore all that 'PRIOR ART' stuff. Don't worry about it, all those other designs that were copied by Apple, meh, so what, the US patent office checked all that stuff. It's easy let's all stick it too the foreign company, nasty foreigners are always cheating good Americans and let's all go home." To say that jury was just a bunch of cheeto munching morons with no real idea of what they were ruling on, apart from of course one smarmy douche who knew exactly what he was doing.
The paint will only protect from clean radiated heat, however bombs not matter how cleanly burning the explosive matter do not just produce radiated heat, they also produce a large amount of high temperature particulate matter and a coat of paint ain't going to do much of anything against even one seconds worth of white hot sand blaster. So more voodoo than reality or homer thinking, eye's wide closed.
It's called outsourcing, contracting out all the work to cheap off shore manufacturers called, ODMs, Other Device Manufacturers. These euphemistically defined companies actually made the computers right down to the badges of other companies names on those computers. The greed of psychopathic corporate executives to earn greater bonuses by reducing current cost regardless of the inevitably consequences. Those consequences being the creation of a whole series of new companies with the skill set of the actual manufacturing and distribution of computers for whom the 'Name Brands" other nothing other than a profit consuming overhead. Companies like ASUS and ACER and even Samsung.
Basically the ODM's ahve matured and are actively working to cut out the profit consuming middle man. Things are only going to get much worse for the 'Name Brands' as a bunch of companies out of China start looking to go direct. Why should they take pennies when companies like Apple cream the dollars, it is inevitable the price squeeze will happen and the badge companies will all die unless the start buying up the the future competing direct selling manufacturers they created.
Are you driven by guilt, do you fear the end because of a massive life debt where you have consumed more of life than you have contributed and, could death be empty for you because life is devoid of meaning?
Live forever, I am already immortal;), the question could be how long I wish to maintain the current carcass before trading up or as is likely for many who fear death with good reason trading down.
Is humanity reading for seriously extended life. Could you imagine the Machiavellian plotting and scheming between the family members of the 1% psychopathic rich and greedy as they seek the death of other family members to gain control of the inheritance, psychopathic parents eliminating their spawn because they have become to demanding and to great a threat. All fun and games apart from of course those insane greedy asshats involving the rest of us in their homicidal self serving schemes.
Extending life makes sense only when psychopaths and narcissist are excluded from playing, otherwise those dicks will do everything they can to not only preventing the rest of use from extending our lives but actively working to reduce them back to where they were centuries ago, basically dying once we were no long effective slave labour.
This is really what is has devolved to. The US is now freaking out that Assange will become a hero to South Americans and sticking it to the US. This has now escalated beyond the disclosure of US secrets. Assange and his followers in South America will become a pain in the ass for the US for years to come.
The reason they are keeping secret the diplomatic discussion between Australia and the US because it is strictly a no no, wildly against Australian law and the very strict separation of powers, any politician caught trying to fudge the courts in any way are publicly condemned and doing it for another country even discussing pretty much guarantees the end of their political career.
The reality Assange running around in South America feeding anti-US sentiment, is far far worse then the disclosures as it stands Assange free in Australia is the best solution the US can easily work to legally silence Assange and Wikileaks in Australia. Of course incompetent ignorant and arrogant Americans have completely screwed up that solution and now produced the worst possible outcome. Assange as a hero in South America for opposing the US.
Lets be more accurate here. The idea of Telsa was a challenge to the idea of a corporate dick being able to pay other to invent things and then for that corporate dick to be able to prance about the world stage feeding his ego by claiming he was a genius and invented all that stuff himself. Here's hoping they have an Edison display in the toilets, for the first corporate executive douche with a national PR team who worked hard and making the inventors and true genius's invisible so corporate executive ass hats could take the public credit.
Walled gardens, meh, everyone of the died given time eg Prodigy, Compuserver, Atari. As soon as customers forget, just like toxic weeds they re-appear and attempt to take over the garden again. Every time they do they end up failing as certain people become more aware of them. Basically those walled gardens become an anti-competitive corporate applied tax sucking up all the profits forcing all those outside to continually strive to break the monopoly which they inevitably do. The harder corporate asshate lawyers and accountants squeeze the sooner the break up.
It is impossible now especially when you take into account the global basis of the internet, the harder Apple and M$ try to squeeze the sooner other countries will buck the pressure, fine the crap out of them and force the opening of the market. Other countries don't make money out of the monopolists just a hand full a tax avoidance tax havens do, basically they are becoming dangerous sources of corruption of government and a threat to democracy.
Obviously the other commenter can see the obvious but that is not what they are paid to comment on. Propaganda doesn't happen for free you know and when you're paid to deliver it in forums, truth, lies, meh so what. You are effectively trying to argue against a for profit barricade, the truth shall not pass.
Just like those asshat political double speak GOPers, Internet Freedom, of course not for the users, for profit freedom for the corporations to screw over the end users in every way imaginable and unimaginable for the non-psyhcopaths.
What really needs to be tackled is the insane and deceitful difference between software marketing, software warranties and software EULA's. The worst examples of corporate disinformation and outright lies ever seen by man. It's like the very worst of snake oil con men from the 19th century all joined the software sales business, with all sorts of lies printed on the outside of the label but once to consume it's contents all the disclaimers, once hidden by it's contents appear on the inside of the label and this is insanely and corruptly enough is now accepted as normal practice, led by M$.
Actually Hector Xavier Monsegur got involved in worse crimes than that. Hector as an adult stupid enough searched for and groomed minors to commit crimes on the internet on Hector's behalf, crimes that Hector researched, planned, provided the tools and led. The sickest part of that is under the control and direction of the FBI, he continued to score the internet for minors, to entice to criminal activity, so that a bunch of Fucking Bloody Idiots could indulge in some hair brained self promotion.
Right wing control freaks all wrapped up in a illusionary scheme to pursue an organisation they had branded as a yet another ohhh ahhh terrorist organisation (the defining rule being they are a group not driven by greed and are opposed to government corruption) and one they felt could be used to stimulate laws to clamp down on free speech activities on the internet.
The ones who really should be indicted are the agents in charged who led the continued criminal activities of Lulz sec and who actively incited minors to commit crimes on the internet, so those minors could be prosecuted for crimes, controlled and led by the FBI.
Contrary to the desires of Apple marketing, I am not bound by saturation B$ peer pressure marketing and I consider the device unusable, others might feel differently about the device that is their choice but seriously, honestly I feel absolutely no need to defend my opinion of the device. Apple marketing types really are a bunch of passive aggressive narcissist type who feel the need attack every contrary to their marketing, opinion. The iPad is a shitty content creation device and, far to small to be a useful content consumption device. Mobile phones at 5" maximum and from their it's a leap to at least 12" display, then at least 24" although I starting to push to 27" and from their at least 55". It's all about screen real estate.
The argument was always form vs function. It's really stupid to allow form to overtake function to create pretty but unusable devices (iPad) but there is no problem with achieving function and then giving it form (X1). Of course never ever forget budget.
The US in it's typical ignorance and arrogance has pushed the whole all out of proportion and dragging everyone else into it Sweden, UK and Australia. What should have been a simple matter was blown all out of proportion, with that stupid Interpol warrant and from there it was all down hill. Pompous wankers is a pretty accurate description for the US government.
Blame it on insane over funding on the military basically spending money hand over fist to smash it, burn it, blow it up and throw any remains away. Military spending beyond the bare necessitates is a total obscene waste. Infrastructure spending in when over done still has long term purpose and value. Spending on space could have an enormous beyond imagining pay off.
