Best... statement... ever.

Agreed. I have a two way commute distance of 80 miles today. A Leaf or e-Golf leaves me no breathing room at the end of the day, especially in the midwest winters.

Thank $diety they're not detecting fake old!

I think they're also talking about the validation of the source - i.e. the man in the middle attack isn't just accepting the connection it's making on the client's behalf that it's own connection to the server is actually secure in and of itself.

It's a two pronged issue.

Gotta have a new word for a more cromulent experience!

You said it better than I did; this is actually the point I was trying to make.

So many jump the gun and say "NO, NO REASON TO SPOOF" but I gave a legitimate reason for non-robo-calls to be "spoofed" yet owned by the company that is calling.

There is a reason for businesses to spoof a number.

Let's say I own Bob's National Grocery chain. My internal number is 888-555-1555. When I dial out, for privacy reasons, my number shows as the internal switchboard number - 888-555-2627 ("bobs" lol). This should not be a problem, as (1) my company owns this number and (2) it is answered. The issues here are two fold:

1. How do you determine the number I am advertising is mine? The answer here is simple - for numbers I advertise out from my phone switch, I must own these from the phone company I am peering with (first hop) or have some way to prove that I own those DIDs if I have multiple peering companies. Not a difficult hurdle to overcome.
2. How do you determine the number I am advertising (assuming step #1 is valid) is a valid company or answered number? In the case of robocalls or spam, my company could prove I own a block - satisfying #1 above, but turn out to be a voicemail box that's full or a non-company-answered blank DID.

About 15 years ago, I played around with a company owned phone switch setup and found that ANY number I put to advertise outbound was picked up and relayed to the target's caller id. I made a few test calls to my cell phone to validate that this was possible and then promptly reverted back to the company's owned block.

Maybe the headphone jack could be added back in with all the space savings! It's innovative!

Cowon's players support FLAC. I still use a D2 at work with a 32GB sd card full of FLAC; wolfson DAC onboard.

One of the groups that does a good job on this is Motogp.com - you can purchase a season subscription, about $100 USD and you get access to all races and footage past and present - and NO commercials.

I was originally watching it on FS1 and then this past season BEIN took over. I thought - well, if I'm going to pay $10 a month for BEIN on my cable plan, I may as well stream - and I'm glad I do, because with a sport like motorcycle racing, the commercial timeouts were not true race timeouts - and the local company would effectively cause me to miss parts of the race that may or may not have good footage.

US sports wouldn't benefit much from streaming (still have TV timeouts etc) so the advertising could still be there, if they would just make the streaming free or reasonable for those who don't want to subscribe to the massive amounts of cable channels packaged today.

Hopefully this highlights why we need to implement "No Laptop Left Behind"

Vaping != burning. Vaping = boiling. When vaping = burning, your device is dry and the user definitely can tell.

So if it doesn't work, I need to file a TPS report?

This sounds like something that a computer could be programmed to do.

Which means you've never heard a Lexus LS drive at speed. Hint: It's a luxury car; it's quite quiet.
