It just means there are more things in space that we don't fully understand yet. But every discovery adds knowledge so we can understand it better.

Without knowing how many stingray devices they use, that is nearly two devices running every day for the 8 years they have been using them. It sounds like they turned the devices on and let them run constantly. More like a dragnet usage and hope they can find something later.

So, if I have three clients behind a NAT or proxy, do they all share the same TLS key? Does that mean my encryption is compromised in a WiFi environment?

~~

I think it means they didn't get the previous bill to give them payment that they wanted, so they want to try again. I agree, a 20 year old law doesn't sound that out of date yet.

OK, I'll remind you again. Snowden is currently outside the United States. He is releasing information that meets the requirements "by persons located, in whole or in substantial part, outside the United States that are reasonably likely to result in, or have materially contributed to, a significant threat to the national security, foreign policy, or economic health or financial stability of the United States..." The President is declaring it a "National Emergency" to be able to use economic means to block access of certain parties to donations.

Section 4 also now blocks some people from entering the US. The President finds that the unrestricted immigrant and nonimmigrant entry into the United States of aliens determined to meet one or more of the criteria in section 1(a) of this order would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, and I hereby suspend entry into the United States, as immigrants or nonimmigrants, of such persons.

Yes, you did.

IANAL, but I think there is much more going on here than meets the eye. Why block people that contribute or materially represent "certain persons"? Is this to prevent Snowden from accessing funds or accepting payments from people wanting him to release specific information? Is this to prevent other parties from accessing assets for him? Much more in play here that I don't understand.

Your post doesn't give enough information to explain why you think $10 is a better price point. I'm assuming you're talking about 60 Watt bulbs, so $22 would be high. For the new 100 Watt bulbs, that is about average. For the new Bright White, omnidirectional, dimmable 100 Watt bulbs, $22 is a little low.

You mean like any of these? http://www.cnet.com/products/p...

Requiring a drone operator to get a private pilot's license is just another way to discourage commercial use of drones and does nothing to improve the safety of the drone.

It makes about as much sense as requiring a bicyclist to get a motorcycle license or a snorkeler to get a diving certification.

Interesting. I will have to update my mental reference of iPods, iPads, and iPhones. Thanks for the clarification.

~~

Interesting. I thought only iPhones did audio conferencing and video conferencing. I had guessed that an iPod was just a music player, an iPad was a larger tablet, and iPhone was for communicating.

If you are referring to an iPod doing all those things then it is a strange device indeed.

The link is NSFW because it shows a girl's bum in a bikini? Or because it has "sexual relationship" in the text?

How many cities allow men and women to be topless in public and we are still worried about seeing women's swimwear?

~~

And does your "pod" give you local weather forecasts, traffic reports, local events, road closures, or emergency notifications?

You can listen to your Three Dog Night's Greatest Hits over and over again, but most people need to get their local news from somewhere.

~~

Just because someone has a college degree doesn't mean they are exposed to concepts outside the scope of their field of studies. How many people could explain the math and science of say, the Doppler shift, if their studies are in Art History, Theology, History, Political Science, Agriculture, Forestry, Pharmacology, or Medicine? And I'm sure those other fields of study include knowledge that they consider very basic concepts that I am unaware of.

Why would you need anything resembling the original font? You are trying to disrupt the original number shape enough so that the crystallized pattern remaining after everything is filed off won't resemble the original number.

You could overstamp the original number with a symbol of a duck if this would disrupt the original pattern enough.

Those are the programmers that work with COBOL instead.
