lol, touche. Still, do you really have to read it? It seems like one of these bootlicking/astro-turfing 'studies' from some consulting agency or 'solution' vendor comes along about every 6 months in the Slashdot headlines. Upon reading TFA, this one seems no more credible than any other.
Haven't RTFA yet but I bet they are using patch notes as their source of vulnerabilities. If that's the case then obviously well-documented and frequently-patched browsers will be over-represented.
You've apparently not been reading the news for the last....ever. California hasn't been able to pay for 'necessary government services' for a while now, and Texas has one of the lowest unemployment rates in the country.
Why funny?
If those in power won't tell us the truth we should assume the worst very loudly. Then later when they come back and say "Look it's not as bad as all that, we're just going to put a harmless chip in everyone's head at birth to monitor their multimedia consumption." at least we'll know.
I wish there was a networking equivalent of top500.org I've never worked with anything longer than 160km without 3R regen or more than 40ch per pair. Undersea stuff is a little out of my element. I would have thought DWDM would be handicapped by dispersion, unless they have optical MDUs and transponders built into the regen nodes to 3R regen each channel. That seems a little complex for a system that would require a boat to repair. Thanks for the info, at any rate.
I work in Fiber. 10gbit/s is the standard for high speed links, that'd be OC-192 or 10G Ethernet. 40gbit/s is out there for early adopters. From some quick math I'm guessing it's 256 fiber cable with 122 40gbit/s links using repeaters and a half dozen pairs held in reserve for when a link goes bad. It could be a few hundred 10gbit/s links over some form of WDM with amplifiers, though I doubt it because of the dispersion problems over this kind of distance. I don't work with undesea fiber but I can assure you that this is a ton of capacity. 4.8 terabit/s will actually easily carry over 80 million 64kbit/s T0 voice lines, TFSummary is actually on the conservative side.
...and then the EU turns into the USA of the mid 1800s. This seems like the logical conclusion of all this, unless they skip the civil war and go straight to stripping member states of power and consolidating it all in the central government.
Still, the fact that they took something that was already built into phones and disabled it on many of them is a pretty good indicator of how much they value giving their customer a good product vs. milking their customer for every little feature they can.
They may be backing off this practice now, but I have no doubts that they would do it again in a heartbeat if they thought they wouldnt get called out on it.
They would also disable Bluetooth file transfer so that people would have to pay for sending picture messages to get their pics off their phone wirelessly.
All wireless companies in the U.S. are evil to some degree, but Verizon keeps them all in business by making them look customer-friendly in comparison.
of course all the energy is there, but how much do we obtain and how much do we waste? that's the question.
No, it wasn't. You brought up carbon emissions, which is by definition 1:1 since it is neither created or destroyed in a purely chemical process. Stop being wrong on the Internet.
You're comparing the wrong eras.
Try comparing the weight of an 80s or 90s car to the same class today.
The Honda Accord, for example, has gained about 550 KG (1200 pounds) over its various iterations.
I don't know how much of this is due to attempts to make the car more comfortable and quiet, and how much is due to safety regulations, but efficiency gains are definitely being eaten by weight gains.
Katabatic winds are caused by cooling air moving downhill, so it seems to me that they would be the greatest around the shoreline and non-existent at the center.
Avoiding taxes is about the most American thing you can do. My country was founded on it.
Some people view paying taxes as some kind of holy religious tithing which makes them a better person. Buses were invented just so that those people could walk in front of them.

Urinating is legal but I bet if I pissed in a macbook they wouldn't work on it.

His reply was rather cryptic: "YES BUT DON'T DO THAT".
The reason he typed in all caps was because he was running from Amazon's black helicopters.
Why?
Both sides should stop.
If you're going to defend the left, use a defense that doesn't hinge on everyone else being part of the right.
which is made with?
Grain, Yeast, Hops, and WHOOSH!
Pretty good actually, I can see exactly how much I'm paying on each paycheck.
I've yet to see an itemized bill from the IRS.
