Likewise, it doesn't take more than a little research to find someone who can make "Phoenix Theft-Guard Protected" stickers for your laptop for a few pennies a pop.
Personally, I'd go with the "This Laptop is GPS enabled and filled with C4 explosives set to go off when reported stolen. Enjoy life with your three out of ten fingers."
I was hoping by now, or at least the near future there would be a larger migration to software with open protocols like Emule or Shareaza using gnutella and whatever the edonkey protocol is called.
I've found Shareaza to be almost as good as kazaa in regards to variety, but slower on the download end because of either the lack of a decent userbase or the protocols still need tweaking.
I think we might be seeing, or already have seen, a big rift in content. RIAA/Mainstream stuff fills the Kazaa networks while less mainstream stuff is begining to appear on open protocol networks as people with a clue are migrating away from the spyware infested world of commercial P2P.
Got a popular file? Put up a magnet/gnutella/ed2k link somewhere and tell people to download a non-commercial client if they want access to the "good stuff." Sure, there's no accounting for taste, but a little effort could undermine and help produce a mass divestment from Kazaa and the Sherman networks.
>Unnecessarily duplicating a very expensive piece of infrastructure that the world needs only one instance of.
I think its common knowledge that the US uses all its muscle when it wants something, and we're not just talking military here, but trade. Perhaps the EU believes this will be a boon for them during negotiations with American corporations when discussing stickly matters. No one wants to hear, "So how many GPS devices are you using in Europe right now?" from a high-level American office holder.
On top if it, and probably the main reason for this is control. The EU is going to connect all their expensive toys to GPS and have no control over it. What if its a bad "GPS day" in that part of the world? The Americans have priveledged information on how well GPS is working.
Also, this will create a Galileo market which will help offset the cost. Sure, the Europeans could be buying GPS toys, but after this thing is working guess who will be selling the Galileo toys first and how brand/country loyalty will play out in this multi-billion(?) dollar industry.
The final argument and I think this stands on it own, is autonomy. The EU is not the US-lite. They're their own association and if they want to get off the US teat, the better. Heh, I'd love to see a poll on how Europeans feel about paying for this. I think many wouldn't mind just to be that much less attached to Uncle Sam.
Whatever happens, it could not be a bigger failure than iridium, so lets not cry "financial crisis in the EU" just yet.
So are the EU's space programs "unnecessary" too?
I think we should be glad for redundency and competition right now while most of space program is in dry dock.
Oh man, that's just great. After the first test I thought, "They're going to to put a person in that?!" Then comes out a guy in t-shirt, jeans, and a helmet...
Exactly. How about an article on why every email I send to my friends at work comes back as, "Your email has elements of spam in it and was rejected" even though its clearly a reply from a message sent from one of their own. Multiple vendors here and yet to be fixed.
Or Symantec's years long unresolved stability bug.
"Your product crashes my system."
"No it doesn't."
I really hope this P joke doesn't hurt Trend's reputation. They make excellent products and are my prefered vendor.
Ia agree. My USB keychain fob is smaller, less obstrusive, and there are days I simply do not want to wear a watch. My keychain is almost always with me.
Neat gadget, but not nearly as practical as the key drives.
Generally, anything built into fashion is going to be useless at some point. Clothes, accessories, etc are temporary and best suited just to cover us and make us look good. I don't exactly see the Armageddon Bra (bad example, I know but I cant help but mention it) flying off the shelves and anyone wearing those "PDA pockets dockers" just looks silly.
Personally, I'd love to see the USB key drive replace the floppy. Its easy to use, holds tons of data, and is pretty cheap. My Lexar 128 meg drive was $40 after rebate. Plus it would be nice not to be the only guy in the room with one.
Someone want to clue me in on what kind of performance Mac on Linux would get if it did x86 emulation? Would a nice fast Athlon + emulation + MOL bring Mac to the masses or would there still be major performance hits and hardware issues?
Essentially copy your.js. install flash. and restore your.js. Supposedly newer builds don't have this problem. Heh, what a build to pick of the.6 release.
>On a good note, spammers who directly route through the recipient's mail server will be much easier to track down
On an even better note, you do less work and fight more spam because everyone in your organization is pretty much going to get the same email. If your spamassassin-like app running on your server catches 20+ mesages full of phrases like "penis pump" and the other usual spam stuff it could automatically block that IP, pull those messages, and make everyone happy.
>This is designed to be similar to a video shop transaction.
Okay, lets assume this isn't a hamfisted attempt to push DRM down the throat of Joe Sixpack. While all these useless DVD discs pile up in the local landfill, someone out there is getting a pizza delivered.
I wonder what's best for the long-run? A peapod-like video store or 48-hour DVDs? You still have to drive out to the store to buy the DVD in the first place.
Also, video stores makes a lot, if not most of, their money off late fees. I wouldn't expect these things to be that much cheaper than the offerings at your local video store.
Also, where exactly is the market for this? People too lazy to goto the video store AND who also don't have pay-per-view AND don't want to subscribe to NetFlix? Yeah right, I'm sure these 800 people are going to love DRM-DVD.
Of course blogs aren't going to be pulled from google. If google wanted they could just reduce the pagerank and be done with it, IF blogs take away from signal noise ratio. I doubt they do, stuff is generally easier to find though blogs in my opinion and I don't think I've ever gotten a search result to a "livediary" type site.
Google bought blogger. They want to bring mass, cheap, digital publishing to everyone. Its a great bet and will connect more people to the google brand than the USENET archives did. Joe Sixpack doesn't care or even know wtf usenet is, but if he can blog with the click of a button and have his buddies find it on google instantly, well then something interesting might happen.
Self weblog-type publishing is fairly easy, but its going to get technophobe easy with google. Give them some time and they'll make the standard blogger tools of today look like a slackware install on an old 486.
Like someone said the digital divide today is between those who serve content and those who don't. Google isn't stupid. Sorry anti-blog people, but you're going to have to deal with cheap, egalitarian publishing on the net for a long, long time. Sure beats the default msn.com homepage, eh?
>What happens when some 19 year old with black leather and piercings knocks on the door of some Iowa corn farmer and tries to explain all this?
Well, more like a chubby guy wearing a "Root This" t-shirt, but that's besides the point. Even with point to point 8 watt configurations that gives anywhere between 10-50 miles there will probably be lots of "rogue boxes."
Chubby kid climbs local t-phone poll, sets up cantenna, paints it black or orange so it looks "official" and no one will probably care. I do feel sorry for the obligatory call to homeland security and the evening "news" report on how hackers are setting up dirty bombs on our telephone lines, but that's also besides the point.
That's the worst case scenario. Also, why can't we use public parks and forest preserves to put up "rogue boxes?" Public land and public 2.4ghz arguably belong to the people. If Joe Camper can set up a DirecTv dish outside his camper why can't I set up an AP and leave it there?
Sure its doable, but its a lot of effort and I think they're doing it the wrong way. You need to work from the bottom up, not from the top down. I'd much rather see major/big cities connecting to each other e.g. Chicago to Milwaukee to Madison after each city has a decent or at least usable for volunteers wifi infrastructure. Then you can take these central hub cities and go for long distance tunnels to other hubs. That worked for the telegraph/railroad industry.
Also, 802.11a is really short on bandwidth. I hope they at least go with 802.11g.
Not to mention I'd hate to make this my primary net connection and then have it rain in some part of the country, thus killing my connection. Although a "net weather" app sounds very interesting.
"Hey its raining in Kansas City so don't expect much bandwidth if you're passing through there."
I'd like to contribute, but I don't have the cash for a nice outdoor rated wifi box. I doubt my $80 linksys will be of any real help to the project. (perhaps the el-cheapo WAP11 repeaters could be useful) Interesting if they could get some press and corporate backing. This project just screams "techno-cool" and maybe some of the big players in wireless could donate some equipment and expertise.
> If anything, computers can lead to MORE paper use.
Oh yes. I've been trying to convince faculty to make their PPTs more general and NOT required to print out to get a good grade. My comments have fallen mostly on deaf ears, but I think some people are thinking about this.
The real issue is that PPT is a poor-mans text book. Okay, so Jane Professor has had her book rejected eighteen times. So she pushes an abridged version of her rejected book in PPT format. Everyone prints it out and take notes on it. Score: Professor's ego 1, envinronment 0. It wouldn't be so bad if we didn't have to buy another book, usually VERY underutilized, for the class because of department requirements. Worse, these types of teachers always have it in for the required book. Really now, your half-assed PPTs are no substitute for a decent book on the subject, a book with an index, and clearly labeled chapters.
Some professors do use PPT properly: as outlines to lectures and not as quasi-books. These outlines rarely need to be printed out as the notes you take in your notebook work just as well.
There are some serious usability issues with PPT becoming the new micro-publishing. It wouldnt be so bad if we all had tablet laptops that we could take notes right on with a stylus, but that ain't gonna happen anytime soon, if ever.
They might be in VCD format so you can burn and watch on a real television with the help of a DVD player.
Sure, an uber-hot divx formatted cartoon would be great and all, but I doubt these people have access to the originals and it would be a waste of effort to take low-quality television video (or more likely second or third generation VHS as these episodes are no longer broadcasted) and put it in huge high-quality divx-like formatting.
When it comes to television broadcast stuff, VCD is a good way to go. A simple burn and off to the TV you go. Yeah, you can take divx or whatever and reformat it or you might might own a nice videocard that does NTSC output, but my shared folders on P2P are usually for me first and others second.
Be glad you're able to get anything.
>Anyhow, classic cartoons are still aired on Cartoon Network.
True, but the WWII ones certainly are not getting played on CN.
Wireless ISPs have to have some kind of mutual pricing scheme or its just not going to take off. Here in Chicago there are more than a few wireless providers, each taking a very small chunk of the city. Say I wanted wifi access at the coffeeshop next door I'd have to pay x amount per month or a pay for a punishing day pass price. The other coffeeshop or the wifi at O'Hare wants my money also, but I'm sure as heck not paying all three of them a month. That would be like $100 just for occasional wireless access.
Wifi cannot be sold like this. Its like a different owner for every cell phone cell in the city. "Oh so you drove into my cell, pay $30 a month buddy!"
There is a huge need for some kind of central billing authority that all these ISPs can share. Its this, spotty coverage, or some big monopoly is going to waltz in and buy all these small providers.
Considering that 802.11's range is exremely limited I don't see how anyone could be making real money off of it when it comes to in-store access. The coffeeshop has one lousy AP and even with a kick-ass 802.11 card you can't get much further than the curb outside the store. I'd much rather see business treat wifi as a service for its customers like free newspapers, bathrooms, etc. A DSL line and an AP and some authentication scheme isn't that expensive. I'd much rather pay a couple pennies extra per cup of coffee than pay yet another wireless provider.
Great, now I can watched widescreen NC-17 and other films edited by the studio for "family-friendly" stores like Blockbuster and Walmart because these stores will refuse to carry content they find religiously/morally questionable. The studios don't want to lose money so there goes the penis scene from Bad Lieutenant. I can't remember any others from the top of my head, but the editing is quite real.
They need to widen their tolerance not their aspect ratios.
No, the energy stuff is called a McGuffin. A Mcguffin is anything in a movie that keeps the plot going. For instance a super-secret agent chasing down a beautiful super-model who is also a super secret agent because she's carrying the microfilm. What's on the microfilm? It doesn't matter.
So the writers needed a reason to keep the Matrix going, or the machines would just kill the humans and be done with it. Other acceptable alternatives would be to examine their strange minds, keep them in a zoo, morally against genocide, etc. Who cares? Energy works just as well.
A plot hole happens when parts of the movie are so badly edited that an event happens which doesnt fit in with the rest of the linear story. Or more rarely when the story was just bad to begin with.
> They still don't explain how a human in itself can generate more energy than it costs to maintain that very same human alive and well in the Matrix.
