To me it gets 'shitty' when they do this without disclosure. I have no problem with placing an order with GH and having them place the order for me, but when they masquerade as the restaurant and try to hide that from the customer

Scuba(normally) does not use any higher concentration of oxygen than air. The compressors used just pump high pressure air into the tanks. Using a scuba tank filled with air does not pose any additional explosion risk due to oxygen. The onl

But how does the NIC know that, 11 hops away, there is a layer 2 device, which cannot communicate with the NIC(switches do not typically have the ability to communicate directly with the devices generating the packets), that only supports a

GPON is both time divided and frequency divided. There are typically 3 wavelengths.(frequency division). Two for data(downstream and upstream) and one for video (downstream). The downstream channels(both video and data) are broadcast and no

Duplex fiber where a separate strand for TX/RX can use the same frequency. Simplex fiber, that is point to point, may in fact be able to use the same frequency, but it's not done in practice. Possibly due to the difficulty in dire

Pulling the terrorist card is pretty cheap and probably why the downvotes. LEO cannot be expected to be prescient of every crime or we will become a surveillance state much worse than we already are. I agree that common courtesy would dicta

Drones over 249g are required to be registered have a registration number affixed. Your point is valid, in that every other motor vehicle that operates on public property has a requirement to be able to be positively identified to a owning

I'm still not grasping it either, to the point that I feel we may eventually learn they are neither, something else that looks to us sometimes like a particle and sometimes like a wave.

Not sure which switches you are using. I have hundreds of Unifi switches deployed. There is no downtime with normal setting changes(port/vlan assignment, link speed/duplex changes, etc...)

Why isn't the armed shoplifting suspect paying for this? It's his actions that were the catalyst for the damage by police. I don't think any of us are in a sufficient position of knowledge to determine if the police action wa

It's a liability issue. Say someone gets hurt from a seatbelt. If it's designed exactly as required by regulation, there is an immunity for the company (IANAL so I don't know the legal term for this) IF you try to make it bet

Well I started thinking about it more. If it's orbiting at the speed of the moon, it's going slower than geostationary orbit speed. So its tendency will be to fall towards the earth. But since it's attached to the moon, this

If one end is tethered to the moon, and the other end is in geostationary orbit...you're gonna have a bad day. The moon is not in geostationary orbit. Not an orbital scientist but doesn't seem that will work out very well.

Yep. You can do the same thing sitting outside on the street with a high gain antenna. Or one of the many rarely updated, vulnerability-ridden Android phones that are inside the building in people pockets.

He said somewhere else on the site that because of the location he may only get 3 hours of sun in a day and sometimes months with no(I assume direct) sun in the winter. So solar wasn't an option here though likely would have been cheap
