480p? France used 576 25i in analog days. And why would analog be any easier than digital? A WMT will give acceptable pictures for this type of shot at about 5mbit which is far less than 8MHz. You can get about 40mbit on an 8MHz channel whi

If you permanently emigrate and then work for a foreign company, why would you pay tax in the UK? Rules for temporary emigration are more complex, but if you get a job in Germany and move there, returning to the Uk occasionally to see frien

Office management companies are worried. In the UK they, as well as commuting companies like Daily Mail Group, and overpriced sandwich shops like Pret, have realised their entire company is reliant on millions of sheep trudging 2 hours a da

A 1000 line highway would take tens of minutes, maybe upto an hour, to drive to the outside lane, it would have its own interesting traffic problems.

Perhaps it’s built into a different perception of what a company is. In America, I get the feeling people think more of companies (large companies) as human beings with rights (but no responsibilities), and that’s far less than the general

Yes that’s a few more years before then, and the more sats the more capacity and the lower the latency.

Latency to where? One of the promises of starlink is reducing latency over mid distance - say transatlantic or even across the states, due to using vacuum rather than fibres. Will be interesting how HFT use it. Starlink network is nowhere n

Back when I compiled my own kernel, options like packet radio always evoked a feeling of wonder. There’s no reason twitter or whatsapp couldn’t be usable on the bps that ax25 documents describe, but using 9600bps or evening less to try to

Many Americans don’t get those rights in practice - although I don’t think there have been any cases of the third ammendment being broken recently.
