So kids, Hurry and send in your multi-million dollar product in good working order and we'll give you a pittance and introduce you to the civil legal system!

it was just KFRB, blasting out the top 100 Intergalactic Hits... in a few micro seconds. They also do Intergalactic traffic reports, but those aren't very timely unless you're close enough for the broadcast to fry you...
Another good option is to re-use the existing wires in the wall to carry data. Ethernet-over-power-lines is cheap and works well (as long as your two endpoints are on the same circuit, and your appliances aren't too electrically noisy)...
I'm just afraid my appliances will know the network is talking about them...
The thing is, by saving a life the hospital makes x dollars. If a person dies, the hospital is going to do multiple organ recovery procedures, and possibly some of the transplants as well. So, if when you roll in the door, they KNOW you have not opted out of donation, you become a bifurcated revenue stream which could effect your caregivers either consciously or unconsciously. That would be troubling, but not as troubling as a stacked revenue stream where you seem to be holding your own until your insurance maxes out and THEN you take a turn for the worse... Of course, there is another path that will come along as we stroll towards the "Everything which is not forbidden is compulsory" Highway... A long ago vision from Larry Niven.
Sometimes the fuckers like to start screeching at 4am.
Does it count if you kill two birds with one stone to solve the issue, or do you then have to seek out two more birds? Maybe these questions are best answered next to a poultry packing house...
Every time someone comes up with a solution to an issue, the birds have to suffer... Why, Oh Why do we hate the birds so much? I mean, other than the obvious envy of the freedom of flight and the whole crapping on our cars thing...
Baseless threats and unjustified subpoenas along with outright lies are SOP for the people that try to "detect" or recoup damages for "IP abuse". Hell, they've even issued take downs for IP they never owned in the first place. Having a list of numbers is more useful than having nothing, especially if they're willing to make the facts fit their goals.
Maybe it's just an attempt to collect IP addresses of people worried about their torrent activities. Nice way to build a subpoena list for use with ISP threats, demand letters, etc.. I would think someone would write a script to enter tons for IP addresses at random to pollute the stream, so to speak. Personally I have not used a torrent client in a long time, two ISPs (and actual addresses) ago...
Bob... wow. I remember loading that up and it lasted about eight (long) minutes before I decided it had to go. I'm sure more obtuse program managers have been made, mercifully I have not run across one...
Worked in a local repair shop and most of the infections came from porn sites. Those two actors I had to trace back to xnxx (a side door to xvideos), in order to not call the cops. I only really had one case where someone brought in a computer with illegal porn on it... most of those guys are paranoid enough to learn to take care of their own systems.
That one time I did have a case for the cops, the guy got out on bail or a deal or something and six months later he tapped me on the shoulder at a store, I about crapped! And to top it off he wanted to know if I still did that kind of virus removal... you can't fix stupid. I had moved on and soon after that I changed cities so I never found out what happened with the dude. But I know he shared the system with his wife and he made no effort to hide his files, so she had to know what was going on. We turned the system over to officers after they confirmed what was on the system was illegal, and never did hear about the tower, the court case, or testifying, from anyone.
I still disinfect a system or two for friends, and if they got cooties I tell them about noscript, safe sites, etc.. It is tedious to clean systems, I don't miss it.
Tia Tanaka and Kitty Jung both started at 18, and attended the same high school. Supposedly there is an interview where Kitty says she started on her 18th birthday, I have not seen that. Here is a normal, dressed look at Kitty: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GJbLI2Lo-I There is also the huge issue of Human Trafficking, where the women are basically slaves and may also be under age...
FCC? I'd be more worried about the U.S. Air Force, you know, the people that maintain the GPS network. Those people have some very serious drones, and no one wants a delivery from one of them... And, seeing they are part of Cyber Command, they most likely have a pretty good bead on, well, everything.
So my drone override transmitter that is already jamming GPS just needs to impersonate more than at least half the drones in range?
Along with all the local wifi hotspots, ssids, repeaters, device MAC addresses, etc. (including their spatial relationships to each other) that Google Maps just went ahead and logged. If I had to set this whole "out of sight flight" thing up that is one database that would get a lot of updates. People have put radio beacons everywhere, it would be a shame not to at least check in and say hello 60 times a day...
But if you get a divorce, how do you split the stuff??
I would think lighting an acetylene torch would make it a snap... or at most a sizzle... But it should really never come up unless you're dumb enough allow the "Love, Honor, and Never Re-Flash Firmware" vow.
I'm not seeing that. Go full screen and you can see it is link chain, not cable. The part of the chain above the light blocks a view of the upper part of the light fixture, and enough of the light is shining through the chain to mostly wash it out, but it is there. During the first few seconds, the chains swinging makes it a bit hard to focus on, as clean chain is shiny, but you can see the light dimming a bit. At 58 seconds the light fixture comes back into view and it all makes sense. YMMV.
So we re-task the leg servos... or flywheel and crank... it's all good. Also might want to do something else with the arms, the drum thing would get old quick... About the time you get it just right the rabbit will want to start seeing other people... or robots... or rabbits... Headline: Officials said today the were shocked to find 40,000 fluffy bunnies humped to death by a manic robot sex rabbit. In a side note, Australia has placed an order for 12 dozen gross units to help with the "rabbit problem".
Sadly, the females I know that have opted not to have kids happen to be the type of genetic stock we want to encourage. Smart, resourceful, able to look ahead and see this is not going to be a good place soon...
I find it odd that we require training and a license to operate a motor vehicle but anyone can raise a Jeffrey Dahmer as long as they avoid minor troubles that would cause a social worker to become involved. And if you want to teach your kid to hate a given group or type of people, well that is your right as long as it does not lead to violence from the child... once he's a adult all bets are off.
One last issue is doing some genetic testing to check for bad recessive gene matches and other not so obvious problems that could warn a couple in advance of major issues and lifelong disabilities in future children... we could have that now if it weren't un-PC to tell someone they can't have a kid because it will be damaged and have a crappy life.
But we can't take away peoples "freedom" to populate us into extinction, can we?

Right! Common use comes from social agreemification.

Naturally given the needs of society, the death penalty will be applied for only the most major crimes, like excessive traffic tickets.
I actually posted a link to a Larry Niven short about that very topic, here it is again... a nice short read from the 60's:

Also, NoScript pops no alerts on the page, what a shock!
