Seriously? CM tells you how to do this, as does rom manager, etc.
Google and Cyanogen came to very nice terms quite some time ago about gapps. Cyanogen can't include it, but they are allowed to provide it as a separate package.
So here you go:

Go read the patent.
Jack is the same as a port.
Here's what it basically proposes:
Two types of ports. First is a half-port. Nothing will fit that new port except for the half plug. The second is a fully circular "port", but only putting the electrical contacts on one half of the the port. The other half (to make a full circle) is just a non-conducting part of the case of the device. This eliminates the contacts on the other half of the port, thus shaving maybe like a millimeter or two off the total thickness of your port. You go to a full half-port, and it would cut a jack in half entirely.
Fine line though right? If I develop a new type of super-light but super-strong steel, should I be allowed to patent the chemical formula that makes up compound? Is my new type of steel an invention or a discovery? This compound is a mixture of pre-existing things, carbon, iron, etc., but in a way never before done. Does it exist it nature? Chances are there might be a few molecules existing somewhere out there in the universe, that just haven't been found.
For what it's worth though, I am completely and utterly against gene patents. It's kind of gray, given my previous example, but Isolating a gene in the genome is definitely not an invention in my book.
I doubt it's over. The Logitech Revue was the very first device to market. I completely dismissed the Revue as a half-assed attempt to beat apple. After seeing the SageTV/Google screenshots, I have no doubts the second iteration will be where it's at. Maybe something that combines the GoogleTV2.0 with Android@Home...that would be sweet.
I also think that Amazon may enter the fray in a few years.
Your analogy about the store was quite faulty.
A slightly better analogy would be to think of it more like a mall.
So you have a vendor in one of those stores that is paying the owners of the mall a fee to rent out space there. Now, if that vendor starts doing stuff like offering "FREE CANDY!" and it floods the mall with people, to the detriment of other patrons and shop owners, then yes, that's a problem. But, there are ways to fix that though.
In addition, companies like netflix aren't hijacking a connection. They pay for their internet service so they can stream you video. And they almost certainly pay through the nose for the amount of data they push out onto the network. Youtube does the same thing. As does Google, Microsoft, Apple and any other cloud based service. Those guys are all paying a metric farkload of money. If you as an ISP can't afford to provide a service then you have 3 choices. Either raise the price to make more money, reduce the service to a point where you can, or a combination of the 2.
The BEST analogy is something we've had for quite sometime, and that's the power companies. For instance, if I want to run 30 AC units off of my line, I pay for every kWh I use. If someone comes out with a new device that uses tons of power, they aren't "leaching" off my power company, as I am paying for that usage. The power company doesn't care how I use my power or what I use it for, as I am paying them all the same. In addition, I get better rates if I use power at lower demand times. If I choose to watch Netflix at 8pm, it sucks, but so does running my AC at 3PM in the afternoon. I can also go over to plans that give me a better rate if I keep my kW usage below certain levels at any given point, just like if I was to keep my total downloads to less than 5mb/s at any time. These kind of options help the power company meet their goals of trying to supply a finite resource at any given point in time. If I decide to reduce my usage by switching over to lower wattage lights, that means I use less juice and it pays more. This would be analogous to using compression schemes on my data. The power company and the way they operate would be a perfect analogue for an ISP.
Transferring isn't really viable. These ships don't have cranes on em. How in the world would you, at sea, pluck a container from the top of the stack and move it to another boat? Helicopter? That's a logistical and economical nightmare for a couple of containers....
Let's say it goes overboard and you don't realize it until you get to port. Now, you have to send a ship out to pick it up, and you have no clue where it is. Currents and storms could've pushed that container to who knows where, and that's assuming they floated instead of sunk. How long do you search for it? Searching at all would cost orders of magnitudes more than the container is likely worth.
Now, let's say it goes overboard and you DO realize it. Do you stop? Follow along as the container floats until another vessel can come pick it up? Those container ships don't have cranes to pick something out of the water with. The cranes are always at the docks. How much does that cost to wait next to a single container (at worst, from a value perspective) while a ship comes and picks it up. What about lost money due to perishables in other containers going bad?
No. You're wrong. Let's clarify.
IF Amazon is in state X and buyer is in state X AND
IF that state/county/city/town/borough/etc have sales taxes AND
IF said state requires a retailer in that state to collect sales taxes on behalf of a customer in the same state THEN
Amazon will, and does, pay those taxes.
And by the way, Amazon (or any retailer/business) NEVER pays sales taxes. Sales taxes are paid by the individual. Those entities merely COLLECT the taxes when applicable.
A tach on the engine won't tell you your airspeed.
The pitot tubes ARE heated by the way, to combat ice formation. Nothing ridiculous like pumping bypass air up to a pitot tube, but they do it electrically.
Also, in your case, a strain gage will tell you stresses on the airframe, but you can't really use that for anything but fatigue monitoring over time. Which, planes already do. That won't help you fly the plane though. The hydraulics also have pressure gauges so you know the pressure in the entire system. Feedback on the position of valves. Position sensors on the ram and on the surfaces.
Yes, the pitot tubes are an issue, and that's a problem. But there isn't another way around it right now.
Looking over your wiki link....
All the mechanical/magnetic options are out (as they are too large/bulky for an aircraft), not to mention you still need pressure readings. Optical isn't reliable. The doppler ones aren't very accurate. Thermal mass sensors still need a baseline coming from a, you guessed it, pitot tube. The pressure based ones WILL work, but they all will rely on small orifices, etc.....which can clog/ice just like a pitot tube, or they aren't designed for open flow, like on an aircraft.
They DO have multiple pitot tubes as their form of redundancy.
Besides a strain gage won't be able to tell you how fast you are flying, as the force of the air will change with altitude and pressure. Now you need to know the pressure you are operating at, which is provided by a static tube....which can clog up the same as the pitot tube that you previously were relying upon. So you still have a common mode of failure.
GPS type systems are probably way too slow and inaccurate to give the necessary readings.
So, any other good ideas for trying to get your airspeed?
ING does it. It's quite easy. You need your friend's account number and routing number, and you can send money to their account anytime you want. I just set it up with my dad the other night so I could make payments to him once a month. It's quite simple.
It's actually quite simple. The FORCE is the same, but the PRESSURE of a bullet is far greater.
Would you rather have someone stepping on you in sneakers, or high heels? Which one will hurt more? It's a force over an area that is of most concern.
And to be technically correct, the force the shooter feels is GREATER than the force the person feels who gets shot, as air resistance slows the bullet down.
Um, the food items on the airlines are in a box. So no, no contamination takes place. As far as taking a plate of food from one table in a restaurant and giving it to another patron, you'd be correct, but this is different.
Your "shitty" delta airlines also has "linux-based" entertainment.
Are you really trying to use that as a selling point, that the entertainment system is "linux-based", like that means people will give a damn?
I doubt anyone cares what an embedded system runs, as long as it works....
No, not in the least. Go step look at the sun during your lunch break. Or step away from the monitor for 5 minutes so you can gaze outside. It's really quite that simple, and I work 60 hour weeks.
Yes, but you look at a day's schedule for an average person. You wake up, you get ready, and you are off to work, probably less than 2 hours after you've woken up. When you get home, you are most likely awake for something like 4-5 hours before going to bed. So you tend to be at your home longer in the evenings than you are in the morning. Thus, more lighting needed in the evening at your home if you don't have sunlight streaming through your windows.

Jack is just the hole/opening. Port is the entire housing, etc.. Easy enough.

as opposed to whom? Didn't these script kiddies have this script before as well?

They DO lash the containers down. But, you start getting a lot of swaying going on, and those lashings can break free.
No. No they are not. Passenger jets still use wire cabling for communications buses. Even new ones (B787) still use copper.
No. You're wrong. Let's clarify.
