Ultimately it could be good for all of us. If China stick to their guns it will accelerate electric vehicle production and development, cleaning the air for everyone. The only caveat is that clean power production has to keep up.
We are told by Ofcom who are investigating the matter, that you only need, and this is the frightening thing, a small transmitter and if you can get near where there is an outside broadcast or a signal and you can overpower that signal [and] you’re on the airwaves.
I'd guess he's overpowering the uplink on a relay. The area might not be that small.
You are right, they covered this in greater depth on radio 4. It is during outside broadcasts, where the radio broadcasts from a reporter with a microphone to a base unit to the station. They were not clear on whether the stronger signal overcame the link from the microphone to the base unit or from the base unit to the station.
The only thing that really scares me is that these are the people that make legally binding decisions about IT, and they prove again and again that they are by no means qualified to make such decisions.

> It should go OK as long as they don't let Christians in. They want people who want to support and be part of the society. Cristians are mandated by their belief to undermine non-Christian societies and when they have sufficient numbers take over.
While to certain extent this is true there is a big difference between what all but a tiny minority of Christians would want. Firstly very few of them oppose secular democratic governments. They would be happy to convert all the non-Christians that they can, but still have a secular government employing people of all faiths and representing everyone. Secondly all but a few support equal rights for all, whatever religion. They would not want non-Christians to be unable to testify in court against Christans, nor would they want to prevent non-Christians from building or maintaining places of worship, or worshiping in public. They would not see expression of another faith as blasphemy, punishable by state law.
Also they would not want non-Christians to be subject to a punitive tax to make them feel subdued, nor believe that they should be killed if they did not accept the inferior treatment. On a personal level, very few would condemn Christians for having non-Christian friends apart from befriending them in order to convert them (though I have met a number of Christians who only seem to befriend non-Christians for this purpose themselves)
It should go OK as long as they don't let Muslims in. They want people who want to support and be part of the society. Muslims are mandated by their belief to undermine non-sharia societies and when they have sufficient numbers take over. The people that they hoped would be paying tax to support the aging population will be setting off bombs in the streets, and eventually once in sufficient numbers tipping the elderly out of windows, voting for laws to discriminate against non-muslims and even the slightest suggestion that they aren't the most piecful and best of all people will be racist and/or blasphemy. You can see it happening now in France, Belgium, and the UK.
If I for some reason had the stupid idea that a book could stop a.50 bullet at point blank range, I would not test this theory on myself (or any other living thing) first off!

Our local taxi companies "outsource" requests for a wheel-chair accessible vehicle by putting the booking through to single a company which has wheelchair-accessible vehicles. This is evidently good enough to comply with the UK disability legislation. I guess (but don't know) that they have to charge the customer the same rate that they would have been charged by the original company, so maybe the local companies have to pay something to the company with wheelchair accessible vehicles, who will often have to travel further to pick up the customer, will have higher vehicle overheads, etc.
A lot of vegetarians can't handle meat without getting sick because their body stops producing enzymes to help digest it. A lot of people are going to get sick and confirmation bias kicks in. It will be the new MSG.
There will be some but not many. A lot of complete vegetarians won't try this, if they've been vegetarian for a long time they probably don't miss meat. Also it appears that the enzymes recover in a day so if they start with small amounts (which will probably be a recommendation) they will probably be OK.
Whole Foods has built a business around selling pseudoscience to people. There's just soicj pseudoscience out there like homeopathy, anti-GMO propaganda, and global warming. Amazon should revamp Whole Foods altogether and drop the pseudoscience.
Are you serious? You think they should announce "the reasons we previously gave for selling you all this at a premium price is bollocks"? Not the best business model... remember the customer is always right and sell them what they want to buy.

Oooh, how original. Which piece of shit Abrahamic faith is your favorite? Let me guess. Christianity.
They're all pretty terrible, but if I had to pick one of the major ones I'd pick Judaism, simply because it doesn't aim to convert everyone else.
Get rid of the Muslims. Deport them all to the sharia hell-holes they come from and richly deserve

It's quite possible that the link isn't even digital, it may be FM analogue.
very possibly. The Guardian says:

What surprises me is that this is not encrypted.
Uh... ??
You can't just say "more than 185,000 people"? Why would race be injected into this reporting?
I thought that was referring to the way they take their coffee.
The SJWs are gong to be all over this. There'll probably be lawsuits.
Ban coffee! How dare it be biased against women

Betteridge's law of headlines is true!
Send all the unrepairable junk to the UK. They will be desperate for any trade deal.
Make it illegal to be dumb
Problem solved!
Seriously, can you see Trump passing that one?

Did I miss something? Which upcoming robot revolution? Is there a set date?
It follows the down-coming robot revolution, the doggy-style robot revolution, and the oral robot revolution.
What about the hand? Do we ban sex with one's hand?
That's a sticky question.

Tylenol is an American brand name for what they call Acetaminophen but is Paracetamol in the UK
or something bigger than a comic book....
I look forward to seeing your video ...... no really just don't!
Why is Tylenol like Islam?

Interesting. Google is my default search engine and I am certainly sing it via the https://www.google.co.uk/ URL
