Yes, the nice man wrongly incarcerated who just needs to talk to his grandma.
A whitelist, by its very nature, is monitored. Same goes for prisoners. Somehow that perfect plan isn't working out so well.
Maybe not exactly the right tool, but something in that category. For some reason, the government can't figure out how to use Stingray properly and have a host of circuit court rulings against them.
In a prison, the cell phones of prisoners are contraband. A Stingray like device could be used for intercepting those and figuring out the rest of the criminal enterprises.
The BOP could also make cell phones contraband for the staff too, and solve a whole sorting problem.
And in a short decade or two, we will "discover" the same prisoners who run gangs from cell phones in prison now are on that whitelist too.
So long as they are not ordering pizza an Pepsi with those phones, all should be well.
The fact that nobody has mentioned his name yet shows how young and ignorant Slashdotters are...
By design. He was tossed down the memory hole over a decade ago.
How much molecular acid did they use?
I'm about 15 minutes from you, but I'm not aware of any other options than Verizon or Comcast; they're competitors but sometimes it feels like they're one big monopoly. Right now I have DSL w/ verizon, and Comcast for (way overpriced) cableTV. Our cable TV drops out and glitches a lot, and Verizon will never deliver FIOS in my town. I suppose it could be worse though.
Now that I think back, those others might just be resellers or something.
In Cherry Hill, NJ the possibilities are Verizon, Comcast, and some others. I think I am on Verizon, but I'd have to go look at a bill to be sure. Haven't used Netflix in a while, so I have no idea if they run any better on one or another at home.
Grudgingly, reluctantly, and under duress. I feel as though I am the star of a BDSM torture and snuff film every time my federal and state taxes do me.
How can a black hole swallow a star if the star's clock slows to a stop as it approaches the event horizon?
Just be thankful that this breakthrough is coming just in the nick of time dilation.
You got modded down but it's a good general point.
If I'm going somewhere that parking is going to be an issue, I take a bus or a cab down. It's not worth the aggravation and cost of trying to find a spot. I imagine a lot of geeks fall into a similar behaviour.
I wish I had that option. I guess I could make it an option, but I have just to much stuff I have to bring with me when I leave the confines of the office and do my "real job" out with the clients along the eastern seaboard. Another issue is that I drive a pretty big pickup that my Beloved Fiance made just for me, and it holds everything with plenty of spare room too.
On the issue by the submitter, how on earth is this true? how is it that they've been partially crowded out by other 'parking apps' that are much less useful, and why our marketplace for ideas and intellectual properly is still so inefficient. He got his favorite apps advertised on one of the highest traffic sites on the internet all for the cost of his time to type, copy and paste.
Mmm very cute
