Not a Rubber Ducky, but a LAN Turtle built by the same people. While a Rubber Ducky is a microcontroller in a USB case that poses as a HID, the LAN Turtle is a SoC running openwrt crammed into a USB-Ethernet case.

It makes sense to use different music. Many adds use a single song for the entire ad while showing clips from the entire movie. A fight scene may be edited heavily for inclusion in an add, to the point where the original soundtrack may not match up properly.

To use the most recent Star Wars as an example, they played the familiar theme song through large portions of some ads. I can reasonably expect that this song will not be playing through the entire movie. What this person alleges they did with Suicide Squad would be the equivalent of cutting scenes of Kylo Ren and his triple-ended light saber, despite using that image heavily in the promotional material.

Iridium has 66 sats in low polar orbits, giving them 100% coverage of the Earth's surface, Inmarsat used geostationary orbits and has coverage of most of the Earth within ~80 degrees of the equator. In the MH370 case, the last communications received were from the Inmarsat terminal on the plane. The problem is that the signals didn't have location data, and the services that would provide locations were disabled.

As most countries migrate to ADS-B, there will be more planes regularly transmitting their current location. There is also an ongoing effort to add ADS-B reception to the Iridium network so they don't have to rely on ground stations.

The only real changes that are needed now is to make sure transponders can't be turned off in flight.

Not only do I want some, I want some for those prices! They value the rifles at $150-$200 a piece when those would easily pull in $1000+ on the civilian market.

It could be that the "radar evading" camo net system was acquired because that's what was available for camo netting. Also, while I was in the Army all of our nets had small metal rings in them to scatter the return for ground surveillance radars, thus making the net with a couple trucks under it indistinguishable from the surrounding terrain.

They most likely just wanted some camo nets (they make a great sunshade) and all that was available were the "radar evading" type.

I've seen it listed elsewhere as a "Kawasaki Mule", which would be a side-by-side ATV.

It's a planet without a cause!

I, for one, welcome them.

So this is how it all begins... Although I did get a little chuckle when the first robot attempting the hill climb took a tumble, this is amazing and I can't wait to see this technology applied to the real world. The future really does seem to be an interesting place...

You also have to remember that the human brain also has to handle all of those useless background process like "breathing" and "heartbeats". If you only took into account the user-taskable portion of the brain, then computers have surpassed that level a loooooong time ago.

I think 2 columns of 10 rows would cover most situations (except for maybe the 2003 California recall). If there are more than 20 candidates, maybe have a message stating there are multiple pages that you need to acknowledge before making a choice?

Most of these machines are close to a decade old, so they do use older designs that were new at the time. And it seems so me that making it strikingly clear which option was selected would be common sense, but then again people have been having problems with paper ballots for decades as well.

For the ATM, is it possible that the screen was re-calibrated each time they restocked the cash?

As soon as I read the title, I knew this had something to do with touchscreens. My question is, or something as important as voting in an election, why would anyone trust something as inaccurate as a touchscreen? Wouldn't it make more sense to just list the names with a physical button next to each, similar to what you'd see on many ATM's?

As for many people here saying they never need to re-calibrate their modern phones and tablets, is it possible that they do some type of self-calibration upon startup? I have an old, old Nexus One and on occasion the touchscreen will begin behaving erratically. Simply pressing the power button to lock the screen, then unlocking again resolves the issue.

From what I hear, unless you add a "liked" page to an interest list, it won't show up in the main feed. Unless they pay to promote a post. I just happened to catch this one in that little side stalker feed that shows people's comments and likes as they happen. It's a result of FB's efforts to "clean up" the main news feed by only showing you the stuff you don't care about, but FB thinks you should see.

I vote for Pazuzu.
