And half those sort of "new generation" searchers won't know half the time if they are redirected to a phony site.
Or if they are blocked from reaching the site they want by the search provider choosing to delist what they are looking for.
Who needs an actual government internet filter when you can ask your good friends at the search providers to make the site "disappear" for a growing portion of the population.
whoops. meant to say the electronic whiteboard scanner is *not a cheap system.
No, seriously.
I know I've seen systems that use sensors you mount around the edge of a whiteboard and special markers to track where you are drawing and reproduce it electronically on remote monitors -- it's on a cheap system, but it's cheaper than flying people in airplanes all over the place.
You could also just have the whiteboard person use a graphics tablet, and skip the big arm movements.
Yes. Unfortunately I don't think it works as well without being able to use a cents symbol (stupid lack of unicode on Slashdot).

I actually find this troll amusing, and can't tell if the poster was trying to parody Brave New World or not.
More like they don't expect to win a real argument that the FCC's proposals are in any way bad, so they are trying to win by mocking the FCC.
It's a schoolyard bully's trick.
The FCC should let'er rip and give Verizon their own 0.02 cents on the topic.
Yes, why not become a real rock star and die at a young age of a heroin overdose when your career begins to decline.
It is said in the movie that Rachel was "an experiment, nothing more". That she did not know what it was.
Didn't Bryant send Decker to Tyrell's HQ because there was Nexus 6 there, which led to him running Voight-Kampff on Rachel?

Hooray for patents!
I'm curious what this obscure phone is.
One of the reason people developed for iOS first was the platform had users who on average had higher incomes and spent more money on apps. So if you were trying to develop an application to sell it was more likely to show a return. Also there is more piracy of apps on Android.
...and the number of people who identify as techies and still have no clue whatsoever about technical things is on the rise.
Worse is some of them are selling their services as a "techie" to normal people.
I talked to an auto parts store a couple weeks back replacing a POS PC and it couldn't get online, but the other machine in the store could, and they were calling us (the ISP) about the issue. They were both hardwired to a router (that was not supplied by us) and the store's third-party tech who installed the computer was there. He didn't know how to check an IP address and hadn't even looked at the router itself. He'd just connected the wires from the old computer they replaced to the new one and expected it to work.
Security is inversely proportional to convenience.
What will happen when the FCC decides to use the new powers to "clean up" (i.e. censor) the Internet the same way it's done to TV and Radio?
Yeah, it might be like when they regulated the phone service and suddenly there were no phone sex lines -- oh, wait.
In fact, the Pi's CPU is used in set top boxes right now - I believe if you go to your favorite electronics retailer (online or off), pick up a Roku 2. The same CPU powering the Pi powers that. (Same amount of RAM, too I believe, and Ethernet.).
Roku 2 doesn't have Ethernet.
Only the Roku 3 does from the current generation, and it has a more powerful processor.
