Things I have found that only do 10mbit:

Old CNC equipment.

Older Zebra label printers.

Some older Motorola radio stuff.

That SGI Indy we keep around for Jurassic Park jokes.

The LaserJet 5 thats still going after 30 years or something.

Some modern embedded stuff that does not have enough chooch to deal with 100mbit.


These stations and networks still have about 80% of their previous funding, so nothing is really going to get shut down right away.

Also, in many cases the TV and radio spectrums in markets these stations are in are not saturated to the point where new licensees are prevented from operating just because of saturation.

So this is really just some group asking for public broadcasting to be punished even more.


Yeap. The one-word description is "censorship."


> or if you're rural, five minutes in and out.

After driving for an hour or two.


COs are already being used for edge datacenters, its just not been talked about much outside the industry.


But you do need a GDPR specialized attorney to review all of what your doing even if you don't use any cookies.

Why? Even logging an IP address in a request log is creating records controlled by GDPR.

When TV news in the US is broke and only gets along because large companies buy up stations to control the news, its hard to justify spending tens of thousands of dollars on complying with laws from another continent.


> logging an IP address....

Untrue. IP is an category of PII but its not PII in itself unless you're a law enforcement.

Separately, if you log IP addresses you're doing it to prevent abuse and to provide security to your server, you're already permitted to do so.

That sounds like a great example of why you need a GDPR specialized attorney to review everything you do then…or just return status code 451 and call it a day.


Fair point, thanks.


For fridges? True Manufacturing.


They were also involved in the Boeing MCAS thing as the company responsible for the computers and who presumably wrote the code.


You seem to want a system where the regulators, while embedded at Boeing, are just wandering around and looking at things. What we have in aviation is a system where engineers, the people wearing the rings, with an ethical and moral obligation to prevent harm to other people, are charged with identifying issues and escalating them as far as the FAA if needed as they work on their day-to-day tasks.

The latter is a much better system to find issues than the former, you get a chance to see a lot more issues when your actively working on the systems where the issues would be than if your walking around and looking at paperwork.


Would the same system work for other industries, e.g. banks or medical research?


> While I think an update to the Apache version is a good idea, this is a very low quality report.

It's still a report, which should be handled with seriousness and professionalism. What that app developer did was neither.


American Airlines already has around 450 Airbus aircraft, its not news that they are training their Airbus trainers on a new route.
