First they were talking about those little rc planes/quad copters the media likes to call drones.
As for the actual drones that carry missiles and such the us already has them stationed at 64 bases around the country from what I understand the one in Fort Worth, TX regularly flies them to Afghanistan and back. Who knows how many they just leave in flight at any given time.
I don't see them replacing standard air carriers anytime soon but I'm sure we will see them adding drones to what they already carry within the next 2 years if they haven't already.
Floating factory? Ehhh I'm sure they would add a couple of 3d printers to each carrier just in case but the prefab stuff will still be of higher quality so I figure they will just keep plenty of spare parts on hand and drones still require maintaince so a repair crew will still be required staff. As for storage with our military's budget they could probably leave the entire drone fleet airborne 24/7 aside from repairs and refuling without anyone being able to notice the cost of fuel although id like to think they would put them in a hanger somewhere when not needed.
hooray now if you had only logged in we would know who to congratulate.
Also eggs have been around much longer than chickens.
The birds aren't the only ones hurting with the warmest winter on record people haven't needed to buy nearly as much gas and electric to heat their homes this year.
Really what do more do you need a drone to do they can already fly half way around the world kill a bunch of "terrorists" and then fly back half way around the world to where they started.
I suppose you could give the machine full authority to decide what the target is fire at will and all that. That would probably save a bit of money not having to pay pilots.
After reading TFA..
Oh you mean those stupid little flying rc camera things. So they want one that has the flight time of an rc plane but they also want it to hover. sounds like something that could be handled with a modular setup.
"This update will restore phones âbrickedâ(TM) or disabled by Error 53 and will prevent future iPhones that have had their home button (or the cable) replaced by third-party repair centers from being disabled." From the article on techcrunch.
You're not the only one. Its the same way every election. Better choices would be nice but when it gets down to it we only get two choices one who claims he will do xyz or another who claims he will do wyz and then the one that gets elected does wtfomgbbq and if we're lucky we don't end up in another war or with more crippled appliances that don't function the way they should.
Highest residential package available in town is $100/mo for 40mbps through the city's fiber network. If your willing to pay the business rates you can get up to 50mbps for $157/mo Both are uncapped
Suddenlink charges $35/mo for 15mbps residential.
We get the speed we pay for $45 for 12/1mbps uncapped sure beats the hell out of the $135 suddenlink wants for a 8/1mbps uncapped connection.
Kind probably not but they've undercut the city's price for a 10/10mbps line by $10 and we are rather cheap so....
Yep. Personally I don't think the Chinese believe that anymore than the Koreans do. But I would like to know if there is widespread agreement on that anywhere.
Afaik the US wasn't the only country watching live when it happened.
Last week I had to disconnect a system from the internet because It wouldn't allow me to get to the next step of the uninstall because the upsell page wouldn't load.
Commercial free unless you want to watch: Grey's Anatomy, Once Upon a Time, Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Scandal, Grimm, New Girl Or How To Get Away With Murder.
So no they still don't offer a commercial free plan.
Cable here is still analog unless you want to pay extra $$ for digital I don't know if a box is required for the digital service in this area or not If a box is required the cable service will be dropped immediately when they drop analog service.
Hoping they make digital standard soon catv looks like crap on 50" screens.
Suddenlink likes to send me these flyers that say they have internet 30X faster than dsl. The flyer doesn't say how fast that is but its $35/mo
They also like to send me flyers that say their speeds typically start at 50Mbps I bet they are laughing their asses off they don't offer anything over 15mbps anywhere near here.
After contacting sales the best plan we could get in town is 8mbps for $135/mo nice huh? At&t only charges us $45/mo for 12mbps.
How many on demand services can you subscribe to for the same price? I'm thinking about 5. Still nicer than cable when there is never anything on you want to watch when you have time to watch it.
I've yet to use a service where I was required to rent. Most services will give you the option to buy the equip for something like $299 up front if you want. Few years back Wildblue satellite service would even give you $50 if you sent in your modem after you canceled your service.
Is this exclusive to digital tv? Because the cable at work is a standard analog CATV signal we have anywhere from 20 - 40 tv's running on it at the same time no box required. There's almost enough tv's here to have one on every channel we get at the same time.

Is it going to look like chrome or edge?
It really is ok if every browser doesn't look exactly like every other browser.
A software dead man's switch.
I keep wondering why you never see sdmss implemented.
I've never seen any implementations for smart phones and implementations for computers are far and few between.
No they are 3d printing custom parts to build customized rc planes.
If they were actually building a automated factory like you imply TFA would have been worth reading.

Nope keys don't match touch sensor is disabled and you are back to using a password like the rest of us.

Sure assuming you can't easily bypass the rate limiter.
Yep. Personally I don't think the Chinese believe that anymore than the Koreans do. But I would like to know if there is widespread agreement on that anywhere.

Hardware based encryption. No way to extract the key.

Why not provide the channels in clearQAM?
In town both cable providers still have a lot of channels on analog cable. Both still charge extra if you want any digital channels.
Offline as in not connected not offline as in off.
The Html5 player is already used by default. What do you need flash for again?
Done and done!
