Sharing and control
« on: 20 January, 2010, 01:11:09 pm »
You've got to love the military.  The yank mil have lots of tech toys and sometimes they choose to share the output - for example, drone photos of earthquake damage.  It's shareable to everyone.

But just making it open to everyone grinds the gears of the control mind (wikis make them embolize [sic] ).  So you have to register for J Random Forum, only that registration for this freely-shared stuff has to be a mil-spec bajillion-security-questions and a picture of kittens jobbie.  Lordy.

Then you have to request access to the subforum!   :facepalm:

I'm so glad I don't need this stuff in a hurry with intermittent power or internet.   ::-)
It takes blood and guts to be this cool but I'm still just a cliché.
