why the hell is any DoD network connected to the Internet???? A few days ago the mantra was "Why is the Air Force blocking blogs"
The truth is there's multiple networks. There's operational (operational in the meaning of planning and conducting operations) networks which are secure, not using windows and are airgapped. There's adminstrative networks that are windows based where people do email, write memos, fill out leave forms, etc. Remember there are people that come into military fresh out of high school with little money, they don't own computers, so they use the work ones. These DoD computers are used for things like reserving airplane tickets to fly home to family on leave.
Sensitive means anything below classified but not publicly released. Things that are sensitive: the base warnings that there will be high winds in the afternoon; The chaplains invitation to services; A few soldiers planning what bar to go to on friday night.
The administrative data does need to be protected (Names, ranks, phone numbers, job titles) but don't believe for a second there's launch codes stored on unclassified computers.
Basic training is identical for all MOS's in Army, however some bases are softer. Ft Jackson, ("Relaxin' Jackson") is where a lot of MI get sent for basic. As for technical training, most of the services don't have a job designation for network analyst (or whatever it should be called). The Navy has one (CTN) but it's kind of a joke because they're working on the assumption they can train anyone from zero computer skills to competency in a few months, so they take a lot of shortcuts.
Now there's some good training if you get accepted into one of the programs (they recruit from within military, you don't enlist for it) and there is graduate level training. The military is a great place to develop a skill set because you tend to move around acquiring new skills and constantly receiving training. Some jobs suck (watch the computer to make sure it's doing it's job) but you can count on not getting stuck in any single niche for long term.
As far as technologies, expect to see everything you listed and more. A lot of the software is custom built, so it's good to have patience with clunky UI's that look a decade old (yet are doing cutting edge functions).
Because Electronic Defense would be easily confused with Electronic Warfare and Electronic Protect which have to do with EM spectrum such as protection from jamming and eavesdropping.
Also Network Warfare is taken by their future weapons systems that are all about networking everything together.
No but they do advertise as "Internet". RFC's define the internet, and since they are not handling TCP according to the RFC's, I'd argue they're not providing Internet. They're providing access to the Comcast network.
reset (RST) must be sent whenever a segment arrives
which apparently is not intended for the current connection. A reset
must not be sent if it is not clear that this is the case. rfc 793
In fact this is a problem already solved by ICMP packet type 3 (Destination Unreachable) code 13 (Communication Administratively Prohibited).
But the problem is if Comcast labels it like it is, then applications may start presenting error messages of what it is. If people started getting a popup saying that their connection was closed by Comcast, Comcast's phones would be ringing off hook. Comcast wants their filtering to be confused with standard network hiccups for plausibility deniability. Now when they have everyone throwing fits over minor things that aren't caused by sandvine but just regular network problems they have only themselves to blame.
Powering the device requires using calories you eat. However, every calorie you eat requires 10 calories of fossil fuel to get it in your mouth. That may be true for the average person. What if I grow my own food with no fossil fuels. Am I better off burning the food or eating the food and using tech like this? I guess that depends on what the food is. But this also has the side effect of extra exercise.
My passwords were much stronger before they implemented something like this.
I used to have computerized randomized alphanumeric 10 digit passwords.
Now since I have to learn the password quickly and it won't last long, I have to have some pattern. Sure I now have symbols (because I'm forced to) but it's now vulnerable to dictionary attack. 22!!SOmeword (followed by ##NEwword11) is much more vulnerable then 92cT6Ars1b
No the feminists understand this. However the patriarchal society has oppressed women into sexual slavery through their restrictions on Womyn. The man-driven media has brainwashed our young grrls with this princess mentality that being married off is a fairy tale. After marriage the man forces their genetic material to the next generation through marriagerape. There is no selection./sarcasm
Huge gains in progress? I had a better internet connection five years ago when I could actually do what I wanted with my broadband account. Sorry if I'm not appreciative of filters, caps, and blocks.
I would say anything firing over 40 rounds a minute should fall under an assault rifle ban. Yes that includes non-rifles such as SMG's but that fits in the spirit of an assault rifle ban
Schools should be funded by state and local funds. If that means they have to raise their taxes that's fine. But the federal government has way to much money that they can put strangleholds on everything by denying funds. It allows them to pass laws that would be unconstitutional to require just because they instead make the the requirements "optional" for states but tied to funds that are required.
Truckers won't be made obsolete, there are a lot of high value shipments made that need someone to be responsible for the goods. Granted they can sleep on the road and driving won't be their duty anymore
Some more: -Reverse Delivery. Car pulls up, pizza guy places pizza in trunk, car drives home. Means businesses don't need to hire delivery drivers. -Maintenance, tell the car to go get its oil changed, it drives to shop and doesn't take drivers time at all. -Automated fueling (hopefully some sort of alternative) -Drive kids (drop off kids at school)
When a technology like this gets mature, it'll be interesting to see how car shapes change. Many things are designed around a driver, (steering wheel, mirrors, windshield).
Hard times do build character, but only for the people that make it through it. You don't keep it hard just for the sake of it being hard, you raise expectations to keep it hard. For example shoveling snow builds character, but I'm not going to give my kids a teaspoon to shovel. I'll give them the best shovel possible and if they get done early then they can build character doing other chores.
Really the Army uses about every major OS. It's all a matter of the machines purpose. Certain machines are designed for people to do basic administrative work, those will be windows. Some machines are mission critical, those won't be windows. Most mission critical machines are designed to do only one thing and if thats the case you don't need an OS with a GUI all you need is an App with a GUI.
Anyone that commits a violent crime against someone because they're on a sex offender list, should be added to the sex offender list as a child rapist. Don't throw them in prison, just put them back on street with that stigma, let them be vigilante honeypots. If someone attacks them they can get added too...
That should handle vigilantism and cost hardly any money!
Manually could also mean the operators manually setting the delay times between greens to adjust to traffic conditions. A single operator could potentially run the whole system and still be able to take coffee breaks with nearly no impact.
I would imagine an automatic system of counting cars would actually require a manual pilot period to be calibrated.
The biggest problem is they waste a lot of money on image. How much educational value does UCLA get from its sports program, very little compared to whats invested. How much educational value is received from overly intricate architecture buildings. How much educational value does a physics professor that spends all his time publishing in journals instead of actually teaching produce? Because when school presidents get together, do you think they judge each other based on the quality of education received, thats not very prestigious!
Also if you've never worked in a bureacracy you just don't just realize how expensive things can be when you have to have every decision analyzed, every part approved, every action preceded by paperwork.

I allege that the lawyers are posting these links to provide increased business for themselves. Afterall it worked for the anti-virus industry.
Nearly every base is private security now.
Psh lets be civilized here, you at least got to bring a towel.
And she reduced it to O(N) by parallelizing it!

I had to look COBRA up, here's the link for others benefit.

What he said is ridiculous because there are plenty of shops out there that setup their own solutions for their site.
However it's true on the intersite scale. All the services use Bantu, which is XMPP. They actually advertise themselves as the IM used by US govt.

Except that Solaris is popular in the army.

Windows update doesn't update that now, there will be an update to make windows update update this though.
I bet it'd be exceeded by a C-130 full of floppies.

Yea, lawyers shouldn't defend people they think are guilty. In fact lets just skip trials all together, waste of tax money when a noose is cheap.
