I'm more worried about MS EEE'ing FLAC/MKV.

Yes they will. Just like cable companies, they will get the best laws that money can buy.

I predict in 10 years: money is privacy
No money == no Certs == No privacy

After all, money is speech (Thanks, you corrupt USSC!)
No money == STFU

Replace Cisco, and Akamai and then maybe I'll be convinced it's better than the current situation. But it's still oxymoronic service: A central authority that *REQUIRES* trust for people who don't trust anybody.

And what do you do for countries with draconian Cert laws like England? (They want a copy of your root cert)

The resulting entity would have to be incorporated in Iceland or something. FAR away from 5-eye's dragnets.

In Australia, however, "Country Pricing" has gone "full retard"

That's OK.
We'll just buy LFTRs from China and India in 10-20 years.

"Newer designs usually avoid the Pa removal[2] and send less salt to reprocessing, which reduces the required size and costs for the chemical separation.It also avoids proliferation concerns due to high purity U-233 that might be available from the decay of the chemical separated Pa."

There are plenty of Rare Earth mines in the US but they are "Polluted" with Thorium.

In China, they would process the Rare Earth minerals and stockpile the Thorium on the side until they could find a use for it. In the US, that is illegal.

Now China is thinking about using the stockpile of Thorium in LFTR reactors. And guess what, LFTR reactors are illegal too because they are considered "Breeder Reactors".

So why is all this stuff still illegal in the US? The Old-School Nuke industry wants to keep their Dyno-Reactors until they blow up, Literally. It's WAAAY too profitable to be the sole-source for solid reactor fuel.

I can't imagine any.

And the parodies of the film will be called ... UPS.

The scene will involve a UPS driver putting boxes in the truck in a neat manner all to the tune of the Russian classic "The Peddlers" (aka "ÐsоÑобÐÐнÐÐÐ")

I'm sure it being used to detect if you are scanning currency.

No this IS.

"Batsh is a simple programming language that compiles to Bash and Windows Batch. It enables you to write your script once runs on all platforms without any additional dependency."

can someone post it someplace else?

Oh look, Protesters. Let's brick their car with V2V.

I'm sorry. I have ZERO confidence that V2V will not have a back door for abuse by authorities, never mind the hacker/crook people.

It would have to be passive and have an OFF switch.

It is a legitimate concern not brought up in the most tactful way. Anybody in their 20s should push for this because they will have one in 30 years or so. It might even be a job requirement ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?... ) (yup, it still gets hacked in the series)

Just look at what they can do with a CAN-bus in cars today:

Now imagine people instead of car. Yup, that's coming. Nothing's off limits.

If it's doable, some asshole will go for it.
Whether it's for kicks or cash.

Imagine:
your limb(s) hitting you.
your hand(s) crushing everything.
Your brain getting zapped by the interface.

"good times" are coming.
