Has anyone read the novel Earth by David Brin. Senior citizens in the year 2048 are safe from attack and harrassment because they have video cameras in their glasses that stream directly to the internet.

My condolences to the people of Venezuela.

Not so suprising, Red Hat, Canonical, the many many embedded development houses, et.al. are stronger from each others' contributions. And those of us who use Linux can benefit from that. we just have to make sure that things stay open also, for the benefit of all.

They should do China, which is messing with the internet as much as anyone... China has more secrets. There should be no reason Governments should be afraid of the truth... unless they are selling their own people out.

No more of this Pansy DNS crap. Know your IP address like you know your phone number. Cut these clowns off at the legs. Free the net to the people who know how to use it and won't download viruses to their own computers thinking it's antivirus software... Take charge by taking responsibility from those who don't care and don't know!

The Japanese have been working on this scanning technology years before 9-11. ...basically because they are totally paranoid about illicit drug use in their country, which is why model glue is right up there as a recreational drug in Japan. Millimeter wave scanning technology can be fine tuned and tell one substance from another quite easily. This kind of technology properly used could become the next kind of medical scanner, Imagine being able to detect the tiniest blobs of malignant cells before they even become a tumor... This is great technology but perhaps it isn't being used properly. They could just tone down the resolution a bit as they only need to detect the explosive... they don't need to see your goodies in high detail.

Hey make lots of cheap fake ones and get the Taliban to waste their ammo... They slow down when they reload.

So what you're saying is he's getting the same old answer..... RTFM. It would be nice to know a bit about the company's needs though, elsewise how do we know how to answer the question. Look forward to seeing the requirements.

The cool thing is that there are 4^3 or 64 codes 3 bases long for 21 amino acids that the RNA encodes. Nature has some redundancy so that at least some of those misspellings are covered. For the ones that aren't there is a lot of DNA that doesn't directly code for anything, and introns that the RNA splices out during processing before it even gets to the ribosome where proteins are made...

I have met people who are foolish enough to refuse to pay at all, but you have the right Idea. Make sure they don't get the interest your money earns because you earned it and deserve it.... Nice. That is a good way to send a message to them.

That's an interesting way to look at it. I wasn't thinking it necessarily had to be connected to the internet. Radio modems have been used since the 1970's possibly earlier. It might be interesting to see what a network would be like if the requirement for use was the ability to set up or build your own equipment. It would be like the Internet before Tim Berners Lee messed it up. There are other frequencies that are unregulated and not part of amateur radio frequencies that can be used also. ... You know why the laws are like that....

There are some pretty high bandwidth Ham radio frequencies. Is there a way around the CRTC by having an amateur radio license?

True, If you like rubbery turkey, but they also caused your scrambled eggs to turn kind of a greenish colour.

Fear of obsolescence and timeshifting are powerful motivations to block other methods of doing things.

Apt is originally and still a Debian package manager. Ubuntu is the easy open version of Debian for those with limited mental dexterity, or just plain lazy like me. Installing Debian is the mental version of rock climbing. At least I can rockclimb mentally...
