  1. Make up your mind on No Pictures, Thanks · · Score: 1

    You guys are never happy, first its privacy, privacy, privacy. Now its 'privacy is dangerous'.

    Are you really sucking it all in and believing your administration ????


    Say it ain't so !!!
  2. My Rant on BT Plans Move To IP Telephony, Starting Next Year · · Score: 1
    I am sick of people who have used a dodgy freeware version of something rubbishing the whole concept.

    Do you think this change in back end hardware is going to be actually just the internet ?

    Dont Be so secular,

    Telcos can pull voip off be cause they control all the boxes, wires and protocols in the system. Mrs smith will use her old telephone into an A/D converter at the exchange, quite a lot like it is now!

    Do you all honestly think that the BT network still has clacker board relays to connect your call?

    I don't think they will get it done smoothly simply because they are a big clunky organisation, not because it cant be done.

    Besides all that, someone has to buy those BFG Cisco routers dont they!

  3. Future proofing on Wiring a Neighborhood? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If you are serious about this, and you will have to be, there is a lot of things that you are going to have to worry about, Local standards building codes, carrier restriction Legislation etc. that you will have to be on top of before you start.

    You will also need a services distribution point, one that every one in the netwrok will be comfortable with it has to be lockable and its environment managed.

    I think that the wiring within the houses is out side the question, so I will assume that the wiring within the housing is not issue and that you will have a distribution point within each house.

    I would probably suggest a high performance sheilded twisted pair cable. Lets go with siemons TERA solution. The sheilding reduces the amount of problems from running adjacent to high voltage cabling, and the increased performance of a 1200Mhz+ type solution will allow enough bandwith for quite a while 10+Gigabit over this cable is quite believable (2pr Gigbit is already happening with this stuff). If you run 2 or 3 of these to each house (inside p.v.c. conduit, with pits, drainage angle etc.) It would allow you with a great deal of flexability, even the sharing of pay-tv services through the use of set top boxes etc. It is my understanding that ScUTP is quite popular in europe (especially germany) so this cable would be easy to find, so installers to do it wouldn't be all that difficult either.

    Just so you don't think I am a wack job with talk of strange cables beyond Cat 6, I design these things all day. And although Cat 7 and 8 aren't ratified yet the leading edge companies are putting out products that comply with the current stipulated terms. History says that those requirements get easier only, not harder.

  4. Authentication Cant scale on The Future of Security · · Score: 1

    Authentication can scale. Most leading edge security systems ( physical security) have been developing and pushing super scaleable international authentication systems. What crap.

  5. If a universe formed in a forest .... on Big Bang Really a Big Hum · · Score: 1

    ...would it make a sound, and would anyone exist to hear it?
