Or for that matter Max Headroom - the problem with that show was that it was too critical of viewer ratings and ads to get finance from people placing ads.
There are shows that rolls on because they attract stupid people that are too lazy to skip the commercials and there are smart shows that gets cancelled because the ad providers considers the audience impossible to target.
I wouldn't call the farm air dirty, it's still cleaner than the city air we have.
The difference is that air on farms have a wider variety of bacteria (most of them harmless to humans with a working immune system), and asthma is an auto-immune disease caused by the immune system not being busy enough working on real threats and instead starts to react on all kinds of things that it shouldn't.
I would just want to add the fact that many commercial routers/firewalls comes with UPnP enabled - a "nice" little security hole allowing any "compromised" device on the inside to open up the firewall unknowingly to the user.
The maximum emitted power of an RF device can be constrained in hardware so that maximum power can't be exceeded.
And if the RF is baked in there's still a way around it for those that want to increase the power. I did a search on eBay and first item was a 6W amplifier. A bit further down a 30W... The latter might be good if you want to cook your neighbor.
Not to mention that DD-WRT is often the only way to make a security upgrade of an older router.
The corner case that the FCC want to address is not worth the risk increase that may leave a lot of devices insecure because they have issues that haven't been discovered today.
And how could they actually see the difference - forwarded data to PC versus used in the phone? As soon as the data traffic has reached the phone it's up to the phone owner to do whatever he/she want.
Essentially it's OK to lie if you offer a product but not if you buy it.
It also highlights that operators try to tie specific devices to services instead of managing the "problem" on the server/provider side.
In all it's about being open, not locking in the customer. It's better to be straight with the customer about the fact that there is a ceiling on the usage.
Then there's another question of how the users really are able to run up a traffic volume in the terabyte class. That's actually pretty amazing, but if someone is streaming HD movies I can imagine that it may be chewing away the bytes pretty fast, but according to some a HD movie is about 2GB/hour. So that means 1000 hours for 2TB - and that means that you need to watch movies every hour in a month and still not reach 2TB.
The F35 is a lot like a dual sport motorcycle. It can't keep up with the sport bikes (F-22, F-15, F-16) at track days, and it can't keep up with MX bikes (A-10) at the dirt track, but it is awfully good at the 90% of the rest of the time uses.
Just remember what the prize is for second place in war. A casket!
"Different Doctrine" - that's what they tried in the beginning with the Phantom (I think it was) where dogfights were considered to be something of the past, hence no need for cannons on it. That was quickly discovered to be a huge mistake where the opposition flying MIGs were chewing them off at a good pace until they revised the doctrine.
Yet another reason to make sure you have a good adblocker with a good filter setup.
At the same time newspapers starts to complain when you use an adblocker, so it means that the use of adblockers are successful and effective.
Now web browsers need to work on improving security even more to avoid cross-site content and block suspicious sources even better. This is not only the ordinary cookies or injected ads that are to be considered but also "super-cookies" and cookies/caching of plugin data. Virtualization by default may also be useful - so that each program runs in its own sandbox.
And Android do have some concept of security permissions where the app requests rights before getting installed but at the same time it don't allow the user to actually say no to the request and still install the app. That is something that has to be improved, I as a user can accept that the app I install don't have the full functionality if I for example deny access to the address book.
I did read that the secretary of state considered that the records aren't subject to the Kansas open records act. In my eyes any such avoidance of disclosure means that there's something to hide.

Just see Futurama reference - 4000 (or something) channels and nothing to watch, channel inflation...

Like the Blipverts episode.

The primary reason as I see it for this is that the HW manufacturers want it - they want to sell you a new $200 device to get a security update.

None of them are frequently used in commercial solutions.
A few I think are in the category of obscure languages that at least comes to my mind:

That phone would also need some extra cooling fins.

What they need is a tech pack that makes F35 "voila" it is an A-10. ;)
Tech pack in the form of a titanium bathtub around the pilot and tougher wings able to stand a grenade.

Which means that it's a swiss army knife against [Crocodile Dundee voice] "this is a knife" aircraft.

The secretary is covering up a fraud.
If you define callgirls as real women.
Some?
On a site like that - the only real women would be women that are either desperate or looking for other women.
Well - it has to do with water shortage because the water from the Jordan River is used for irrigation.
