so it's self-delusion or fraud. you would have to be three tower rungs below a broadcast antenna to harvest enough power, and you'd get very, very fried.

at the corner where Minnesota, Iowa, and Wisconsin meet, three farmers were talking over the fence. they find a magic lamp, and the Iowa farmer rubs it. out comes the genie, and splits the three wishes between them. the Iowa farmer says, "I would like this place to be green and fertile forever, rich and promising." BANG! the corn is ten feet tall. the Wisconsin farmer says, "Our state is so beautiful, I would like a thousand-foot wall all around it, so we can enjoy these hills, this water, the land forever without interlopers." BANG, fence.

the Minnesota farmer looks at the wall, and says, "Genie, we love our lakes. Fill that fence with water." BANG!

wireless, several hours battery time, over 4 gig. everything else is on my smartphone, the new fogey's pocket watch.

so to prove the power of a Chuck Norris roundhouse kick, we will have to fire up the CERN supercollider to ever higher and ever higher energies, until we can record the exact one that makes the universe go "poof."

then add 3, and there you have it.

that Microsoft bought Xenix in the 80s, and rewrote all their code in C at that time for portability to any platform, any OS.

after all, every person in the cemetary has a right to vote!

this is one of the times in which busting the top off the thermometer is justified. unless the MafIAA is vanquished, this is infinite jeopardy.

their presumed knowledge is limited to application of 87 US 1.d.23 and related precedents, for instance. they spend 7 to 8 years in university for that, and suck up to politicians for the rest. it is up to the lawyers on both sides to reduce a case to words of one syllable at a 5th grade level of reading to make complex systems understandable. judges' heads swim if you can't lead them through a nasty stew of undocumented code to a conclusion in less time than it takes to search Nexus-Lexus for prior rulings. just how it is.

not all speech is free. you won't find The Jihad Channel on your local cable box. incendiary or hateful speech is prohibited by any number of state and local ordinances, and various equal rights legislations. fact is, and you can ask multiple schools about their athletic departments, the native American population has had enough, as other people of color have, and they are using all challenges possible to douse the loaded stereotypes. the Washington NFL team has got to change, and the screws are tightening under their thumbs.

and our admin password is "letmein"

be just like Egypt, Iran, Syria, China.....

good ol' voter pattern research to hound the rascals out. everybody does it these days, not just the parties.

sorry, but somebody had to do it.

there is a link to get your data out of the house. and then there is an ISP at the other end of the link to get your data on and off the internet.

links don't care about physical media. you can use fiber, twisted pair, coax, wifi, top two wires of a fence, whatever. some are better than others in a specific physical area.

some ISPs are crap, and some are not, also. if they can handle the bandwidth, don't treat you like a captive, and have support inside and out 24x7, ISPs can be interchangeable. but usually if you take one company's link, you get their ISP. the days of sharing the back office side of the dslams are pretty much gone to any ISP who wants to drop a T1 or T3 to the connection point.

at this point, fiber is the goal. PON is the usual method. but it's still costly as sin to run it out to you, so it's limited area access where it's cheapest and has the best chance of adoption, like to new developments with McMansions.

Joe Blow in a 60-year-old neighborhood, forget it. sorry. but I can't get PON either, and I work for a provider. story of my life.

I'm sure you had plenty of VAX to clean the office each night, too.
