IP over power lines is a horrible idea! The noise it creates across multiple bands is, quite frankly, illegal. Vendors made promises about keeping the noise within certain limits and they failed across the board. That's why IP over power lines is almost completely gone now.

The sad thing is that it took the HAMs pointing out the violations to get the authorities to act.

Exactly this.

If you weren't an anonymous coward, I would have modded you up.

I've been using FVWM exclusively for close to a decade now, but I still hope that one of the "standard" desktop environments becomes usable enough that I no longer have to maintain my own.

How does the new legislation make things worse?

"Just deserts"

Or, if you prefer,

"What goes around, comes around"

The perception is that this move by Samsung is in direct response to Apple's litigation in other countries.

Don't be stupid.

There is nothing random about targeting military equipment, jammers or otherwise.

There is nothing random about placing military equipment in a school, hospital, or other traditionally civilian structure.

If you don't want something blown up, don't put military equipment in it. Tying your civilian infrastructure to your military infrastructure is just plane stupid.

The US can't start anything without provoking the Chinese, but if North Korea starts it, what are the Chinese going to do?

The problem is that we don't know what the climatologist accounted for or how they accounted for it because they didn't show their work.

Now that we have the data, we can do our own analysis and decide if the climatologists were right, kind of right, wrong, or malicious.

And now we wait to see the analysis of the data by 3rd parties.

This is how good science is done.

The simple fact that this was not how the climate scientists originally proceeded is why so many are suspicious of their conclusions.

No rational skeptic wants to be told the conclusion without being given the data and tools to understand how the conclusion was determined.
