Hard News: Dirty Politics, in reply to Steve Barnes,
Hex induction for the ohmless...
Resistance is Futile
So that's why people turn to the 'pot*'
to cut back the noise...If only they** conducted themselves better...
and included the Earth in the loop!
But they are so polarising...
and the currency trader is amping up!

OnPoint: "Project SPEARGUN underway", in reply to CJM,
He was their new best friend.
It was going to be the coolest sleepover ever.Isn't that the premise for Gremlins ?
(or was it Ferris Bueller?)

crowd saucing…
We know who was there…

Hard News: Vision and dumbassery, in reply to Ken Double,
nudge nudge winky win Key...
like sign the back of a picture HE DIDN'T PAINT
Isn't that pretty much what he did over the allegedly
leaked Donghua Liu / Cunliffe letter imbroglio...
...akshully he did do some overpainting on that
it was pentimento as anything!</intentionally misreading between the lines>

Speargun
of course the subtext
of that name implies
'dead in the water'... -
Hard News: Dirty Politics, in reply to Steve Barnes,
totally wired...
type Dotcom not Sitcom
them's the circuit breaks...
But I can see the genesis of your confusion
Sitcom is in series while
Dotcom is in parallel
...and 'volting' across the system -
OnPoint: "Project SPEARGUN underway", in reply to Brodie Davis,
photonic friends...
you can tap fibre leads by simply bending them
and collecting the light that doesn’t reflect...Who knew light cornered so badly?
What happens to the data totality?
Do they just capture the particle,
and the full wave carries on?
Information isn't holographic at that point is it?
I thought it was still basically binary
'on/off, light/dark' at the signal's heart...
<warning recycled pun ahead>
What becomes of the broken data? -
Hard News: 2014: The Meth Election, in reply to Paul Campbell,
debuggers... are in de system
the whole super-norton-anti-virus thing...
Key is very glib about that, someone should ask him why this super web vigilance system couldn't stop the Spark*DNS attack - what are we paying for ...the goats in the machine?

Hard News: Dirty Politics, in reply to mark taslov,
et tu... utu eh?
When in Rome.
I think Key is angling for a fight behind the bike sheds...
...all his wittering about clowns, losers and timing,
just shows he doesn't like being caught out.and I guess that strikes a chord
with many in the population. -
the light fandango...
How do you 'probe' an optic cable, without breaking it to insert a splitter or somesuch?
Is there a 'transmission' from data-light?
I think the old copper systems 'leaked' and could be tapped that way, but fibre optics?Does seem to be more logical to be in the retrieval, or transmission processes.
Though wouldn't a tap on such conduit need pretty bulky 'pipes' itself to spirit it away?
Wouldn't there be a 'data-heat' or traffic signature somewhere?...or are we talking 'Dark Data'*?
