Yet chlorinated chicken is what we keep hearing all the moaning about coming our way. I'll pass on mad cow beef and now death zucchinis too. Maybe expanding transatlantic agricultural trade just doesn't make sense.
This wouldn't supersede any violations of the ToS, though. I guess it would mean they can't sue you (maybe?) but they could still kick you off their service. Could they still go after you for breach of contract?
Cultural overtones aside, this reminds me of how qualifiers that describe the comparative or absolute superiority of some technology or process are inherently fragile and do not always age well. Things with words like "very", "ultra" or "extremely" in their name are sort of hopelessly bound up in their own time period. There are many papers (mostly from the 90s) that refer to ULSI instead of VLSI, in the mistaken belief that we had now moved beyond the adverb "very" to qualify large scale integration to another era that could only be described as "ultra" large scale integration. Moore's law made these updates seem kind of silly and it seems like we all just stuck on VLSI.
Do you mind mentioning which RAM module you purchased? On the wiki it looks like some are officially supported and others have been added by users. Maybe if the issue is related to the RAM, others have experienced similar problems. Also, I am looking at the bundle, but don't see any RAM included with it. Was this something that had been offering in the past but since took down?
Isn't Watson already a tired marketing device whose existence as a meaningful product/system is debatable? Not sure how much more damage would be done.
Is Mill happening? Has there been silicon yet? I have been reading about it for so long, but have not seen any peer reviewed work on it, silicon or soft cores.
I would like to see more exotic architectures out there, but I think I speak for many when I say that I am starting to question if the Mill architecture is going to land in a major way.
Wow, I didn't know that about Japan. It makes sense. Tons of amateurs everywhere are using Yagi-Uda antennas, would make sense that they have a strong radio culture having contributed so much.
It's also not even the nation state of France. France has many hams who are likely upset, too. It is a sketchy defense electronics company that has pitiable revenue. I suspect the French people/the rest of the world would see this an unjustifiable corporate power play and act of oppression if hams get the word out.
It would be a shame if, in the event this passes, all those transmitters were to squeal across the spectrum in a coordinated fashion and render the spectrum basically unusable... hehehe.
The good news is that there is enough 2m equipment out there that there could actually be a feasible mass radio protest and intentionally render the band unusable. There is no way in hell the FCC or similar authorities abroad could ever actually track down all the equipment or have the manpower to deal with violations. They cannot even stop robocalls in the US.
