This isn't old-fashioned jamming where you broadcast white noise to drown out everything else in the area, it's installation of a dummy cell which the phones will lock onto instead of the real thing.
If you control the cell you can do what you like with the calls.
The reasons were: (a) It's small and (b) It's a PC
I want to use the same apps as my desktop machine so I can work with the same files on both.
More and more people want to compute on the move and the EeePC is portable in a way that laptops simply aren't. That's the reason they're selling millions, and deservedly so. It's a brilliant little invention.
I don't see how efficiency can go down because noise and efficiency go hand in hand. Noise is caused by air turbulence, reducing air turbulence will increase efficiency.
Having said that, two million is a drop in the ocean for this sort of thing. How come the USA can spend trillions bailing out stupid bankers but only has a couple of million for this sort of thing?
Why do antivirus programs present users with a "Do it anyway" option?
They should just say "That's a virus!" and totally block it.
As for Microsoft anti-virus: If their malware removal program is any good then why is the world's biggest botnet over three years old? The monthly cleanup currently being done by Windows update should be wiping it out.
You can't expect them to check every single link on every single page in real time.
I could easily set up a page that waits for a visit from the google page-checker then modifies itself to contain bad stuff. That would give me a window of attack.
Are you saying there's no energy in garbage? I have a box of matches here that says you're wrong.
The theory behind it is this: If you can take the garbage molecules apart and put them back together in a lower energy configuration then you get to keep the profit.
"...adding complexity to predictions about the impact" is not the same as "...shows it isn't happening".
Science is not still out, only you are. You're still repeating the false mantras created (and quite cynically, I might add...) by Bush when he was campaigning for office.
Climate and sea levels do fluctuate naturally but not spontaneously, ie. there's usually an identifiable reason - big period of volcanic activity, new species of extra virile plants sucking out the CO2, stuff like that.

...a new law requiring better IP tracking built into all new routers and laptops.
Whatever dude. Me? I can think up ways it can be done even for low-tech jammers:
eg. How about a panel on the wall - "Break glass to enable cell phones in emergency".
Use your imagination...
...because that's how you block cell phones.
i.e. Not with some humongous ex-army transmitter which broadcasts white noise to drown everything out.

Somebody who's on-call could carry an old fashioned non-blocked pager.
The cinema's phone blocker could easily detect 911 calls and turn off the the blocking if it detected one.
That's 'cos eating still trumps talking for most people.
How many people are going to sit there yakking while their food goes cold? Not too many.
Food is pretty much up there with sex as far as primal instincts go.
The Linux version was cheaper and had a bigger SSD so I bought that and converted it...

"...isn't particularly well suited for algorithms and other maths oriented stuff"
Yeah, all that operator overloading is a real pain in the ass for numerical work.
140 1TB Hard disks (plus another for RAID) probably costs less than a couple of government office chairs so what's the problem?
[Most likely the fact that it's in secret, proprietary formats and spread across hundreds of PCs instead of being archived by the mail gateway]
...you'd be pretty safe in a tank as well.
There's not too many 'hoods that I'd be scared to drive through in a tank.
Just use transparent aluminium. It's cheap and plentiful...
If he's doing nothing wrong he's got nothing to worry about.
Right?
Is there any other worthwhile keyboard layout?

The original was neatly packaged...as a quick google would have shown you:

Not everybody has heard of it, until now...
Call us when they rated something TOO HIGH, or OVERESTIMATED the number of exploits, not the other way around.

What handheld device can write 19 gigabytes/sec.?

It's a pretty good lens system. Hope they have good anti-shake processing.
