I'd like to see any of these 'battery depos' handle a few northern winters.
In order to handle a 6 minute charge it's practical to assume there's optimal ambient thermal temperatures.
1. Less bandwidth capacity - higher latency (forced to use sat. solution)
2. Very very non-green. Ships put out awful emissions. One running tons of electrical equipment is no better.
3. Curious to know if the sea's movements will affect disk latency - tests have been conducted that if you scream at a hard drive it can slightly affect their latency due to the sound waves.
4. International waters. Nuff said.
5. I'd be willing to say a ship crew - security, EXPENSIVE ship repairs and maintenance far outweigh the profitability.
It's called a rev limiter. almost all semi-modern cars are rpm limited; and who gives a crap if it's very damaging, you'd be alive and much safer than wrapping your car around a tree with you in it; or worse, another driver on the road.
YES! THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS! I've been wondering if these people had the common sense to try neutral; is it possible you could provide a link to this statement?
The -REAL- Y2K is the unix epoch - where HARDWARE base storage chips that keep time (really just a count of all the seconds since the beginning of the epoc) will essentially overflow because they can't store a number that large.
Maybe it's just me - but it's like the U.S. media when all we see are 'LHC fails this, LHC fails that', not even newsworthy here.
A town without power is a bigger deal than this but we don't spam/. about it...
Because hopefully the purpose is to handle taxation to keep our roads and interstates in shape.... why not take that wasted $154mil and put that into the roads right now... that's a good start.
Think about it - $154mil to 'study' how to spend another $300mil? $1bil? $2bil? to 'implement' the outcomes of their study...
riiiiiggghhht...
I take that back...
Hasn't anyone learned anything from the Mars Rover? They have to be super careful to keep them flipin panels clean on the rover... something tells me nasa uses better solar panels then what would be on the roads...
Undersea transmission lines, backhoe to the fiber, natural disasters, botnets, worms, viruses, ddos, slashdotting - and to add icing to the cake, a presidential killswitch?
Brilliant.
1. That means it's new - sorry to break it to you.
2. Fiber is fiber, the switches that run that fiber aren't always owned by the government....
You -can- turn the internet for the US off by enforcing ISP's to implement a new protocol or procedure - whether it be human interaction or something technical - it's possible.
what you're leaving out is that there's many more gap fillers that essentially give the government full discretion of what is 'vital' or not - do you honestly trust them to keep their mitts on their own servers?
You should get out of your bubble. Some very large open source projects user mercurial now - Mozilla and Xen to name a few - there's a budding community just like github called bitbucket for mercurial.
Hell, Tovalds made git for kernel development....

48,000 * 70 = 3,360,000 (3.36mil/mo).
.04% of the budget.
3,360,000 * 12 = 40,320,000, or $40.3mil/yr.
Or average the two (20,70) you get 45...
48,000 * 45 = 2,160,000 (2.1mil/mo).
2,160,000 * 12 = 25,920,000, or 25.9mil/yr.
So it's 0.2% of the deficit, or
The larger side of the ADA/508 compliance revolves around the blind, the scapegoat is called a TTY Relay service.

This is a simple leverage in free press.
Such a well timed 'leak' of something after a shitstorm of privacy sensationalism. Nothing to see here, imho.
enough lifeboats.

19 went to various meetings to generate a 'spec'... 1 did the programming.
Make a bat file, and make a scheduled task on boot

You missed the point...
With my Crockett hat with awesome defense I'm sure they'll look past me.

$100k is chump change. Maybe in california, but in Minnesota weather the first plow will ensure a blackout.
It'll be great when time.nist.gov goes down >_

All it takes is one security slip up ... internet killswitch for the win...
Torvalds, and Mozilla meaning Mozilla products ... I'm off a beat today, gimme a break.
