The number apparently comes from NTSC D1 (ITU-R 601), which has a size of 720x486, so 349920 pixels. But not all of those are displayed - so the TV itself wouldn't have that many pixels. 640x480=307200 would be more realistic, and was a common size for early flat panels.
Perhaps the proletariat shouldn't have to worry about it at all, and those who rely on identity (banks, mortgage companies, etc.) should be forced to assume all the liability and burden of proof when they get it wrong. And that includes being liable for libel if they incorrectly report against someone's creditworthiness.
Just as copyright infringement isn't "theft," so too is there no real identity theft - the problem is on the other side, with those who accept numbers as a convenient but unreliable "proof" of identity. Their problem, not ours.
I'm sure they do it the same as always - suck great amounts of tax out of the states, then give it back (federal highway funds, etc) only on the condition that the states kowtow to the feds.
It's not just headphones. I have at least 3 audio systems which I regularly plug my phone into using the 3.5mm jack. And, three pair of 'phones, for different situations (over-the-ear, on-the-ear, in-the ear).
People need to fight back. Equifax leaks? That should be a problem for lenders, not individuals. PROVE it was me, and not someone giving you my info to take out a loan or ???. Reporting credit issues to any of the 3? That's libel (deliberate, you should know better) without that proof. It's their own damn fault for building a house of cards because it's cheap and easy.
Unlink SSN from TID (Taxpayer ID). Banks need TID, they have no business with SSN. Unlink SSN from healthcare (it wasn't legallay required until Obamacaare, although healthcare providers used it).
"Anyone who has worked with sensitive processes (esp computer security processes) knows that relying on one person for a mission-critical function is not a "human error" - it's a process failure."
Absolutely. Human redundancy is just as important as network/system redundancy. If the organization isn't set up to continue working even if someone gets hit by a bus, that's a management failure. It's not a single individual. Who was responsible for checking that the work was done as required?
That's for speed, not coverage. They're two different metrics. That should be clear, since following the summary's quote from the article is an addition, starting with "In addition,". Duh.
"How can T-Mobile cover 99,7 percent of Verizon customers without also covering 99,7 percent (or something very close) of the same geographic area?"
Because people don't use their cell phones exclusively at their billing address, which is what TMo is looking at. When I travel out of an urban area, I'm still covered by VZW. Not so much for those I know with TMo.
Maybe she should walk down to the docks instead of spending time on a photo op and misleading the news about the availability of aid.
Crowley says it has more than 3,400 commercial containers at its terminal now. That's just one shipping company, at one port. Several other ports are accepting shipments, and stranded crates total an estimated 10,000..."These containers are full of food, these containers are full of water, full of medicine... full of construction materials,"...

"The Star Trek society had other motivations. Money and greed were rarely discussed."
You're seriously pointing to fiction as a counterexample?
"I'm motivated by technology (I'm a design engineer) and the awesome things it can do to improve life, society, etc."
So, are you a trust fund kid and do that work gratis, or do you get paid by a greedy capitalist?

ProTip: ignore ACs, who don't have the courage of conviction, let alone the intelligence to understand what words actually mean.

Everyone who drives slower than me is an asshole. Everyone who drives faster is an idiot.
aptX-HD is lossless, aptX isn't. Neither Apple nor Google are listed as supporting aptX-HD.
Ah, I see you can't hear very well. Enjoy your low-fi.
You're seriously arguing that a $1 headphone jack adds cost to a $600 phone?
I'm sure they do it the same as always - suck great amounts of tax out of the states, then give it back (federal highway funds, etc) only on the condition that the states kowtow to the feds.
"How many sets of headphones do you have?"
It's not just headphones. I have at least 3 audio systems which I regularly plug my phone into using the 3.5mm jack. And, three pair of 'phones, for different situations (over-the-ear, on-the-ear, in-the ear).
"the comments I sent in support of net neutrality "
You're no better than the bots. It's just a matter of quantity, assuming you didn't send millions of comments.
"Ultimately you need the TID to be unique to each taxpayer"
Uh, it is.
"Having voted for Trump says more about Trumpers than about him."
And even more about the alternative choice.
"If a SSN is not linked to healthcare, what is its use really??"
Uh, Social Security (AKA OASDI). Duh.

Google does bright shinies because Google has the attention span of a three year old.

That's the problem - it doesn't go anywhere, so it just inflates his ego.
