Many transit systems have live feeds via cellular for tracking. They could even sync only the repeat riders data at the station and on the road to keep low loads on the network. For subways I really don't see the issue in sending a hardline through the tunnel to connect various platforms. The issue of a secure hash is that the hash can be stolen as easily as the card can already be read. A person could go around trolling for hashes and be able to add those to his/her own.
There will always be fraud when the system cannot fundamentally implement it.
Ya I guess the AC could be a Veterinarian consultant of some sort, that would make more sense. Realistically all s/he did was a post of some AC saying they make $200k+/year and they wouldn't be able to install a set and forget install procedure, doesn't really matter what it is, it's likely BS.
It might have been slightly more than *one* hour including instruction but for a high-end pro parent should be able to squeeze it in.
You should really try installing / running Windows Guest on a Linux host the drive speed is really uncanny for the guest. On a Phenom II x4 @ 3.2GHz and a Seagate Barracuda 500GB, 7200 RPM I can very realistically install a Windows 7 guest in 20-30 min from "insert DVD" to desktop. VMWare 9.0 actually has light years better GPU drivers support which is why I used it for Netflix. Since VMWare does not use apt to install you can actually install Player/Workstation after you do the initial install while apt is grabbing updates without issue.
Heh, I get the job done without $90+/hr experience.
Win7 is there so I don't have to do it in the case that Windows is actually needed(right now just boots in to "Unity mode" so she can watch netflix). But I guess that is a custom solution. For someone making $90/hr whining that installing a $(LINUX_DISTRO) and showing where the icons are is too much of a burden then is that sounds more like someone admitting their short comings.
For that price you should be able to make it rain at the drop of a hat.
A QR code is not much more than a 2D barcode. A 2D barcode is a 2D array of pits/lands, black/white that translates to a binary equivalent. What you do with it from there is up to the hardware and software. The scanner might be looking for lets say 256bits, you pop in a bill with 254 and it might hang, the next bill gets put in and could take it a step further. Maybe one bill gets put through with a valid code but only partially there or the EOL(or equiv) gets left out or put in early. Maybe one gets scanned with nothing but garbage or EOLs all the way through.
All of these are just possibilities, I bet there are many more.
If there really are any developers commenting on this thread and you still say "But why would they do X, that wouldn't make any sense!", then you need ask mom for an outdoor pass and work with any company for at least a month then come back and share.
If you're charging +$90/hr then, well ya I would suggest that.
Hell I set up Ubuntu 12.04 + Cairo-Dock + VMWare Workstation 9.0 on a computer illiterate friends computer with a Win7 Guest in about an hour on a quad core with a decent HDD. Then I showed her the dock and some wobbly windows and she basically taught her self she was so into it.
Funny thing is I don't even make close to your pay grade. You should start to wonder if you are really worth it.
The reason Alzheimer's works the way it does is that it destroys they way the brain's memory regions are stored. This will be as effective as restoring your to a broken hard drive.
Just for a base line test, can you litterally pull something out of your ass?
The reason why I'm curious is that you make statements about what you saw on a clip on Youtube determining it "suggests" that it is not using Apples tech, then you go and equate you opinion with what you believe a jury should conclude.
It doesn't really matter what comes out of there I just want to see you do it with a straight face.
Required to carry GPS enabled cell phones? We spend most of the day just here on Slashdot fighting over who will get theirs first. As an added benefit we pay 2-4x the value of the device and then go ahead and pay even more to have it connected 24hrs a day to the telecoms. Bonus to them if you use it too often and get nailed at the tune of 10-20c/KB.
Ahh the nostalgia of trying to back up software from its home directory. DOS was easy, Win 3.x was easy the rest was something else. But did I stop? Not a chance;)
I don't see how you can debate your point one way or the other. You don't know how much money anyone is making or losing.
The most difficult thing to get in a business is clientele. If you have clientele in the hundreds of thousands per day or more and you can't find a way to make even a couple of bucks a month then you need to put the keyboard down and sell the place.
Sell a T-Shirt and maybe sweeten the deal by offering a free coffee or NFC related payment towards a beverage on a specific day of the month if they show up wearing your swag. Maybe offer a shiny gold star beside the username of a paying customer. Really do what ever you want, that's the whole idea.
But if you are going to give you clientele crap for avoiding a tactic (such as AD based rev) then you will definitely get what you truly deserve.
The article may have made a reference to Doubleclick but do you really think Microsoft doesn't have equivalents? When was the last time Microsoft made a decision that did not effect the "bottom line" ? Windows is deployed on at least hundreds of millions of machines world wide, if Microsoft got these ad companies together and told them they could "fix" people trying to block their servers ads you think they would pony up a couple bucks?
I think you replaced you tinfoil had with a dunce cap.
Lets wake up a bit here. There is a quite vibrant information business. Every country with anything more advanced than a mule has an eye out for a weak link. Manning was that link. He felt he was doing the right thing and wanted to share this information in hopes to curb further actions. Now being a naive kid in the military if Wikileaks was not available, who is to say another country wouldn't have befriended him and honed his information gathering to much more sensitive data?
Sites like Wikileaks can indeed do harm but also great good. How about if a city is about to be attacked in some manor and you had this information but knew no one around you would help you spread the word(maybe even kill you for the idea)? A site like this can help and these types of situations, just by virtue of probability, these are happening every day.
So do we propose we proceed with caution and disallow any information being shared with out some sort of explicit approval process? Or do we allow all information regardless of nature or origin to be expressed?
It's just a way of Ebay covering their assess. As long as people are buying and selling stuff I don't really see them caring what it is. As far as negative comments and payment disputes go, that is when they step in because they don't want the BS. Sell it as a novelty item and the customer can't complain when the rabbit doesn't jump out of the hat and the card you chose is not the Ace of Diamonds.
I apologize you are correct but TFA as well as the Reuters article did not in fact mention the length of time the lights were on. The official TSB report does in fact mention the seat belt lights were lit 40 minutes prior anticipating foretasted turbulence. The summary as well as the Reuters article only mention 40 minutes as the regular length of sleep/rest provided during the given flight conditions.

You should be able to figure that one out

What are you talking about I just pre ordered hers a minute ago.
She says not to forget the milk....
Your *data* to a broken hard drive :)

I agree I am intrigued by these host files how do I sign up for your newsletter?
I am offended by your post.
At the same time if we don't discuss it when will we ever get over it?
If it runs on dalvik and dalvik is already ported to x86 then what is really stopping us?
There is 0 in everything ;)
You have to wonder, at what point do these companies start to feel stupid and have to *share* the blame?
