Looks like people have instructions for using BWAPI with remastered, so probably. https://github.com/suegy/bwapi-mono-bridge2/wiki/StarCraft-R...

This is really just a tutorial on using an FFI to call out to BWAPI. You would need to have an equivalent API to BWAPI, or write it yourself, if you wanted to interface with other games.

Not sure its true of this one, but some groundstation networks use a bent pipe model, where the radio at the groundstation is doing a bare minimum and then forwarding the data to a compute center located elsewhere. This gives you all the la

Just as an FYI, there doesn't exist a way to deorbit those any faster than they are already decaying, so that's not a real option.

The units used around GPS has always been interesting to me. I once received an email from you a vendor of a commercial GPS unit informing us of a bug "above Mach 15". For a scenario that pretty much only happens in space, talking

I would not say the cocom limits aren't enforced, any exportable GPS receiver is required to have the cocom limits and needs a special license to unlock under EAR regulations. This means that anyone building a cubesat and using a comme

Unusual is a strange qualifier here. Removing a dereference leading to a speedup is probably one of the few almost universal optimizations.

Nobody said jail time for bugs, and phrasing that way is intentionally obscuring the debate. Gross negligence is an entirely different standard than just software bugs.

Kinda. What SCOTUS actually ruled is that the Colorado Civil Rights Commission violated the Free Exercise Clause, and so essentially threw the case out. The opinion very clearly states that this exception to the anti-discrimination laws are

This is missing so much key information into its usefulness that I really question who this article is geared towards. There's no mention of supported frequency ranges, receiver sensitivity, antenna sizes, polarization, location of the

NOAA has (though it may have changed recently) had regulatory control over some types of data collection, such as for any imaging data captured, and indeed had requirements on encryption, both on the link later and even on disk and data enc

Since they're asking for FCC license info and there isn't a canonical Norad ID to frequency source, I assume the Norad info is just for tracking, Doppler, and scheduling of passes.

Pulled in this context means pulled into the tree, not removed as the common parlance might indicate, for those who were a bit confused like myself.

I'm a little bit disappointed that Phoronix is helping to spread this awful headline that has been bouncing around a few days. Currently Linux does not support interfacing with Apple's new T2 chip to use the internal SSD. Other th

Onjects in LEO don't really become space junk because there's enough atmosphere to force a natural decay of the orbit for most objects within a human lifetime.

You can actually do this as a context manager, I have done something very similar in the past. I created a dummy context manager with a unique name and used an importhook to do an AST rewrite to the body of the context manager. It's a

No. Serial numbers generally have really low entropy. They're often a fixed format assigned sequentially or in batches, which makes attacking them substantially easier.

In LEO, that deorbit mechanism is called drag.

Cubesats at their typical altitudes have deorbit times ranging from 6 months to 20 years, with regulation (in the USA at least) mandating a deorbit within 25 years to receive a license. The fear of Kessler syndrome is much more relevant to

I had a great English class in university where the professor agreed fully, and went so far as to really engage the class in doing the opposite. Instead of the 5-page minimum paper filled with flowery prose, it was the 2-page paper in which

Most components for commercial space have been reclassified to EAR from ITAR in the last few years, so this is not nearly the concern that it was in the past.

The rules and regulations of a foreign country may not prevent you from operating powerful transmitters aimed at critical US Government or commercial satellites in GEO.

Keep in mind that this is live tracking by a commercial company, where the US Government is more interested in whether it can be tracked by US Government systems. JSpOC has a variety of detection hardware, but much if it is quite dated at t

Just to not spread additional false information: No, the FCC does not have jurisdiction over foreign-launched satellites transmitting over the US. The FCC does have jurisdiction over groundstations physically in the US and the frequencies a

In general, I think the article took a premise and cherry-picked examples to support its premise without bothering to consider the counterpoint. Let's take for instance the following passage: > Of course plenty of states have some c
