Having the mark become ubiquitous in language like those examples is different from having other companies using the mark in their product names even if ubiquitous.
You don't see Minolta or Panasonic selling xerox machines, they sell copiers, other search engines aren't called Google even though the people use googling instead of searching.
Jacuzzi manufactures whirlpool baths and hot-tubs, as do other companies. But they don't sell them as Jacuzzi's.
Installers, rental or repair shops might use the mark in general meaning because it is a common word in the populace, e.g. you go and rent a jet-ski. It might not be a Kawasaki and what you might get is a Yamaha watercraft, but it won't have Jet-Ski on it, it will have WaveRunner.
Having the mark become ubiquitous in conversation isn't an abandonment of the mark and the company will still be able to defend against commercial misuse of the mark by other companies.
LIGO is detecting the gravitational storm that happens when two black holes, each 10-30 times the mass of the sun, actually collide and merge. Standalone black holes shouldn't generate gravity waves unless disturbed by something massive close by.
Orbital binary systems should generate gravity waves, but those would be a couple of orders of magnitude less powerful than two colliding black holes and LIGO isn't sensitive enough to detect those out of the noise.
Then they get back to their futures and find everyone is making time machines based on their patents which expired in 1804 after the single 14 year term.
I wouldn't want to figure out the exact date and time to file to be able to block an alternate invention while having enough time left on my patent to commercialize it.
Browsers and Bittorrent clients report download speeds in kilobytes or megabytes per second, this site reports download speed in megabits per second. 1 megabyte per second is around 8 to 9 megabits per second given overheads. Your 5 megabit/s line will reflect in the browser as 600 kilobytes per second, so the site is confirming your experiences.
The salts in question are perchlorates, not NaCl, so they may not have the white colour expected of NaCl crystals. In addition to the colour of the crystals, other contaminants like fine dust, trace iron salts (of which there might be a great deal if not the actual perchlorate salt) and other chemicals might serve to discolour the new crystals even further.
Interestingly enough, CentOS 6, and therefore probably RHEL 6, has a ntpdate startup service as well as an ntpd startup service. As suggested by the name, the ntpdate service executes the ntpdate cli to force a full time sync with the servers in ntpd.conf.
That isn't there in CE5. And at least it is off by default, but someone decided it was a good thing to force a time resync at boot.
The device does detect if you are holding it in either a left or right hand and flips the screen vertically, so it will handle your case (to a degree). Might be mentally different though flipping through 180 degrees when swapping hands.
Will there be an article every time the FBI issues a warrant now?
There definitely should be an article every time the FBI issues a warrant. That's not something they are allowed to do.
Request a warrant and have it issued to them, yep I agree with you. Non-news. But issuing one themselves without a judge, that's just a touch news-worthy. </sarcasm>
Nope, that's definitely a gas giant in the upper left. The general rule of artist's impressions of exo-planets is to draw them from an outside position, in this case a moon orbiting the planet, not from the surface of the planet.
Are they all the same IP by any chance. There might be a web accelerator cache like Varnish or NGINX in front of the forum web server. Then the web server sees the cache server IP, not the remote connection IP, and puts that into the forum.
The cache server will have the original, routable IP in its logs, so that can still be traced.
The source is one section down in the Wikipedia page, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tritium#Fission. Specifically in this case the leak seems to be in the filtration system of one of the storage pools for spent fuel.
As the spent fuel cools down in the pools, some of the tritium produced in the uranium fission process migrates out of the fuel rods and into the cooling water of the pool. The water in the pool is filtered, presumably to keep it clear enough to see what's going on with the fuel, and the leak is possibly in that filtration system. Given the difficulty that they are having locating it, it's probably something like a slow oozing rather than a jet of water.
NetBIOS over TCP is still a core part of Microsoft networking and the broadcasts allow the various machines running Windows or SAMBA to discover each other without needing a central directory server. It is still implemented because it is a useful API with decent backward compatibility with everything back to 95/98.
This isn't the old NetBIOS Frames line protocol from the extremely old days, rather the service layer protocol that handles the discovery, negotiation and authentication parts of peer-to-peer file and printer sharing in Windows.
People, not person. Plural, not singular. And very, very plural. I do suspect that 7 billion (that's a thousand million) people agree that the specific piece of paper called $$$ has a certain value right now.
Those 7 billion also agree that an ounce of gold has a certain value right now. They could also decide tomorrow that it doesn't. It's just currently more difficult to produce enough gold to do that. Until we find a solid gold megaton asteroid out there and then gold is ISM as well.
De-icing is a two-fold thing. The first part is to loosen any current ice buildup on the wings before takeoff so that the profile of the wing isn't affected. This is mostly accomplished by the pressure and heat of the de-icing fluid being sprayed about.
The second part is to reduce the formation of new ice buildup on the wing. Planes have waited too long in queues for takeoff and crashed because new ice formed since the last de-icing. The fluids have a sticky nature, like a syrup, that forms a layer of anti-freeze on the wing for a period of time. De-icing fluids are rated by the holdover time of the layer, which ranges from 5 minutes to 80 minutes depending on conditions and fluid type.
The airline industry has learned harsh lessons in the past about icing conditions and even if that dry Colorado powder can blow off when the plane moves, some might melt on contact with the surface of the wing and then freeze again on a different, colder, part of the wing. Be thankful for that rule that forces de-icing, otherwise airlines and pilots might take a chance they shouldn't.
Have a look at the accident reports for Scandinavian Airlines Flight 751, China Eastern Airlines Flight 5210, Air Florida Flight 90, Air Ontario Flight 1363 and USAir Flight 405. Decisions made by pilots, especially when under time constraints, within existing rules at the time can be really dumb sometimes and results in new rules.
Interesting. Both Seacom and EASSY cable systems have landing stations at Maputo, so your ISPs probably used both of those and you didn't see the effects of the Seacom outage.
Some SA providers also used EASSY as well and showed slowdowns, but not full failures. It's just a pity that EASSY and Seacom haven't instituted mutual restoration agreements with each other, they definitely have the spare capacity on their systems to do that.
South African here, we did notice. Big time. The problem is that unlike Europe and America, the big boys don't have datacentres inside the undersea cable boundary. MS is served from Ireland, others from Amsterdam and France as best we can tell. Also a lot of sites under the South African domain use cheaper hosting off-shore.
There are 4 operational cables linking into South Africa, two on the west side and two on the east and most ISPs get redundancy by purchasing on one on each side. Just happened that a large batch of ISPs had WACS and Seacom as their redundant pair.
And as for the theories about monitoring installations, Seacom has gone down so many times since it was commissioned that every spy agency in the Universe probably has installed equipment on it, all in Egypt. Must look like a Christmas tree there:)
Nope, not the same crew. Twas the geeks at the NSA that did the Star Trek thing, the assassins at the CIA actually wander out into the real world and do things.
I would say the union was toothless going into the strike if enough members were willing to take the extra $1000 znd forego the strike action.
The only way for a union to properly effective is to represent enough of the potential worker base that if the company goes and advertises for temporary workers, that they don't get them in solidarity. That's probably part of the reason why the IBM union failed to gain traction, they only represented existing IBM workers. A national, or even global, tech specialist union would have been more likely to succeed.
Early internet offerings were far from unregulated, even if they thought they were. All business regulations for brick-and-mortar businesses in their operational base location still applied and would be enforced if needed. More generalized regulations did show up later to reduce the confusion about which regulations (seller area, buyer area etc) applied. Not that it helped sort the confusion out though.

Base minimum Centos 6 doesn't have ntp installed, but the RPM is in the base repository and doing a yum install ntpd gives me both, and an ntpd.conf.
Whenever I think of what waterfall development can do to a project, the opening sequence of The Mission comes to mind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xceFQWV3lMM

IOS probably followed this model for some reason.
