Yes, this has nothing to do with the particular phone in question other than it's from an honest-to-Allah terrorist. It is a 100% lie-through-the-teeth publicity stunt by the FBI.
1. Wrangle for the #2 spot with the candidate with the highest negative values in history. 2. Hope somebody gets mad enough to knock off President Trump. 3. Profit!
You might want to double check your physics. I haven't gone through and done the math, but I wouldn't be surprised that a drone moving at full speed has more kinetic energy than a bullet. The bullet just seems like it has more as it's not very massive, so thus the energy translates into a very high velocity.
What is the terminal velocity of an unladen Phantom 3?
The drone is well trained at keeping itself in the air. (The pilot isn't flying it, he's only telling it where to go). Training wouldn't fix the reasons the drone goes down. And when it falls, its not like 2kg dead weight, it falls under prop spin to make rather boring news items about what might have been.
Hardly further from the truth. Look at the UAV forums - "Why did my Phantom crash" is a perennial source of amusement to the regulars.
And, in order to help Timothy out, This is the document that small UAV enthusiasts are pinning their hopes on.
The good: Minimal or no registration, no complex GeoFencing (UAV won't start in certain places, stops flying, complains loudly, software crashes because the idjits set it up wrong). The bad: Daylight only. Visual distance only (how far can you see a 10 cm object?) The Ugly: It's only a recommendation. Somebody will screw it up royal before it gets established.
No they don't. The reason that we don't patch as much as we should is crappy programming on the vendor's part. Half the systems crash at various patch levels. We can't use Firefox for much these days because it changes so much. We're stuck on three different versions of IE on different machinery. Sucks? Yep. Can it be prevented? Possibly - if you got to build a hospital from scratch. But there is so much tech thrown about in corners and in rooms that were never designed to work with each other and whose designers like the idea of standards because there are so many to choose from. And are too expensive to toss and replace with something that 'is supposed to work'.
It's really amazing that this house of cards actually runs at all.
"The results suggest that four common drug combinations may cause a potentially fatal heart rhythm."... Um, which are? May be important in here.
I wouldn't get your panties in a twist just yet. Even though the methodology is interesting there is ** NO ** statistical analysis of the data so I'm presuming that non exists and this is one of those many, many "associative" studies that don't pan out in practice. To their credit, they try to correlate the drugs with some sort of plausible biochemical pathway but without any sort of kinetic data, it is impossible to determine if these things actually do happen and if they do, to what frequency.
The combination of ceftriaxone (an antibiotic) and lanzaprole (a Prilosec clone for acid reduction) is extremely common in a hospitalized setting. If there was any reasonable clinical correlation we would likely have seen something by now.
It is food for thought, good for a bunch of grants but I'd still buckle my seatbelt and stay away from errant meteors.
You can still buy brand new Motorola Minitors. v and 6's are current. Yep, they're old tech and voice besides. The new once have a bit of memory so you can replay the page which was the biggest issue with the old analogs.
I just delivered four brand new ones to some ER docs. The youngest one looked at it a bit curiously. I think it's the first time he's seen a pager.
The reason(s) why the Mac is sometimes said to be better in DTP, Graphic design and Video editing is simple really: The Mac had the first consumer graphics environment and desktop publishing software, back in the 80's, so it made a name in that field since there was really no competition. Then, graphic designers prefer it because they study in art schools and art schools select their computers for their design, so they still chose mac after it was no longer the only graphical environment. If you were taught in macs, you continue to choose macs, so a lot of graphic designers think it is better, even though they don' actually get better tools. Finally, about video editing, a lot of people swore by Final Cut Pro which was mac-only, hence mac was better for them. I have no opinion on that, never having done any serious video editing myself. I hope this answers it for you.
Except you're a decade behind the times. Look at any serious graphics art department and it's pretty much all PCs. My stepson works as a bona fide graphics artist in a AAA gaming studio. I've toured both companies he has worked at - PCs all the way around except a Mac Book Air now and again running spreadsheets.
People like Mac laptops because they're good laptops, irrespective of the OS. For a while, the 15 inch MBP was considered the best Windows laptop available. Shortly thereafter, Microsoft started it's 'signature' series where PCs were built with a modicum of quality and without a bunch of shovel ware. I think now you can get a Windows laptop every bit as good as a MBP. Except for the damned power connector. Why nobody else has managed a magnetic power connector that doesn't impinge on Apple's patents is one of the worlds great mysterys to me.
Apparently there are more drone registrations than 'normal' aircraft. (Actually this represents more drone operators since the new FAA UAV registration registers the human, not the aircraft - unlike the traditional registry.)
Go back and read 'Red Mars'. Before he goes all political KSR describes a pretty rational plan to get to Mars. For that matter, so does Andy Weir in 'The Martian'. It just takes money. Lots and lots of money.
Something that NASA never manages to get. Kinda pointless coming up with detailed plans when you know you won't get funding for it. Might as well just make a movie....
He's got a better chance to get it off the ground than does NASA. He runs a dictatorship and is not beholden to the kleptocracy that is the US Congress.

Nothing to see here, move along.
Can we really afford to risk further devaluing international relations with a guy who might just say anything?
We did get through Bush, Jr. twice. Sort of.
Fortunately for us, the Universe seems to have a sense of humor.

And this is different from the democrats in what substantive way?
You must really hate cars.

But the FDA regs have nothing to do with this.
I keep telling you people. Trying to make an analogy without using automobiles as a reference point is like trying to fry a fish with a tape recorder.
If computers get to powerful, we can organize them into a committee.
That will do them in.

I hate how they just ran Youtube into the ground and then shut it down.
Nobody's perfect.

Have a nice day.
Apparently there are more drone registrations than 'normal' aircraft. (Actually this represents more drone operators since the new FAA UAV registration registers the human, not the aircraft - unlike the traditional registry.)
And yet, somehow, we are creating objects (the A380, the off planet probes, the LHC, enormous buildings) larger and more complex than ever.
Something is working.
On Friday the 13th, no less.
Turns out that it does install an updated version of Flash. Now that is scareware.

Quality editorial review takes time.
Can't be too careful these days. New Management and all.
If you think molecular biology isn't 'nerdy' than there is little hope for you.
Back to Reddit, son.
Ever wonder why North Koreans all look alike?
He's got a better chance to get it off the ground than does NASA. He runs a dictatorship and is not beholden to the kleptocracy that is the US Congress.
Bet he gets there before NASA.
