Military computers
This article specifically addresses US armed forces military computers and their use.
This article is written like a personal reflection or opinion essay that states the Wikipedia editor's particular feelings about a topic, rather than the opinions of experts. (March 2012) |
Some of the earliest computers were military computers. Military requirements for portability and ruggedness led to some of the earliest transistorized computers, such as the 1959 AN/MYK-1 (MOBIDIC), the 1960 M18 FADAC, and the 1962 D-17B; the earliest integrated-circuit based computer, the 1964 D-37C; as well as one of the earliest laptop computers, the 1982 Grid Compass. Military requirements for a computer small enough to fit through a submarine's hatch led to the AN/UYK-1.
MIL standards and specifications[edit]
The Armed Forces have many numerical designations for computers or other equipment, to guide the military buyer's choice of appropriate technology for their application. For instance, MIL-S-901D[1] would indicate that the computer passed shock and vibration requirements of specific tests for Navy installation. Some of these tests are specific to application usage, such as barge explosion testing, which simulates a torpedo hit and subsequent high peak shock to a ship on which the computer is installed.
MIL-S-901D is divided into Grade A for "Items which are essential to the safety and continued combat capability of the ship" and Grade B for "items whose operation is not essential to the safety and combat capability of the ship but which could become a hazard to personnel, to Grade A items, of the ship as a whole as a result of exposure to shock".
In this way, a computer may have a rating of MIL-S-901D Grade A, which would tell a buyer which shock tests the computer survived, what level of shock resistance the unit has, and that this piece of equipment will continue to normally operate in the event of a specific shock level.
Other MIL Standards and MIL Specs (Specifications) include testing for resistance to EMI/RFI bursts, environmental contaminants such as dust and gas, or temperature extremes. More on MIL Standards and Specifications at Defense Standard.
The "gold standard" of testing for compliance with 901D is the Barge Test. A Barge Test is performed four times, each time placing 60 lbs HBX-1 explosive 24 feet under water, starting at 40 feet away, then at 30, 25 and finally 20 feet. In addition, the tests are performed in a fore-and-aft orientation to simulate an explosion at the bow or stern of the ship and athwartship to simulate an explosion by the side of the ship. A video of a barge test can be viewed.
Typically a military computer is much more robust than an industrial computer enclosure. There will be more structure inside to support the components, the plug-in cards will be individually supported and secured to assure they do not pop out of their sockets, the processor and heat sink will be secured, memory will be glued into their sockets, and so forth. This is to assure nothing moves during the shock events.
Security Standards & Specifications[edit]
To meet the challenges of defending the U.S. cyber network, the U.S. military has taken steps to improve the security of devices connected to Department of Defense information networks. According to United States Cyber Command, "Cyber threats demand new approaches to managing information, securing information, and ensuring our ability to operate."[2]
All military computers must conform to the latest FIPS 140 standards (FIPS 140-2) which specify the latest requirements for cryptography modules on devices used throughout the U.S. government.[3] FIPS 140-3, currently under development, will address new requirements to face existing threats, including software security and an additional level of security.
To address the risks associated with the increasing prevalence of commercial mobile devices (CMDs), a DoD Inspector General report from March 2013 identifies improvements necessary to track and configure commercial mobile devices to meet Army compliance standards. The report identifies existing gaps in tracking and sanitization for over 14,000 CMDs, recommending a "clear and comprehensive policy to include requirements for reporting and tracking all commercial mobile devices purchased under pilot and non-pilot programs."[4]
Field risks[edit]
The progress of small-scale computer technology in military applications was initially slow due to concerns about security and the ability to survive rugged environments and enemy weaponry. PC-based technology in the 20th century was not robust enough to withstand combat conditions and severe environments.
Hazards in the field include water and corrosives, sand and wind, extreme temperatures, high shock and vibration, power interruptions, susceptibility to EMI/RFI radiation, etc. Also, operator interface was complex, and most operating systems were not fast in operation, or easy to learn and use in pressure situations.
In the last decade, improvements in design and operator interface have resulted in new mandates for the use of small computer technology in the military. Some of the improvements have migrated over from home and business computing. Others have migrated over from industrial computing, where designs for environments such as Zone 1 hazardous areas in oil & gas exploration have been modified for army and navy environments.
- Sealed enclosures using materials such as cast aluminum with magnesium have improved environmental resistance to contaminants and hazards, including EMI-burst weaponry.
- Low-heat CPU designs have made sealed enclosures possible even for environments like the desert or naval bridge wing display under the open sun.
- Advances like flash memory have eliminated moving parts and reduced mechanical failures.
- Simpler, effective OS software has improved the operator interface and speed of execution, while reducing OS failures.
Future computer use in the military[edit]
In the last 20 years, wide acceptance of small-scale computer technology in the military has occurred, and is likely to increase greatly. Confidence has improved in the ability of equipment to withstand combat and extreme environment conditions. Most importantly, modern combat has become a duel of speed. Faster and more technologically advanced weaponry demonstrates first-strike capability in current combat situations, which is likely only to encourage further implementation of computer technology into systems used in the US Armed Forces in the future.
In Future Military use probook ultrabook & notepad.

Squatters in Istanbul reclaim their 'right to the city' and fight for social justice in a city where big business sets the urban development agenda.

Squatters in Istanbul reclaim their 'right to the city' and fight for social justice in a city where big business sets the urban development agenda.

The young protesters, who were mostly educated, creative, and computer savvy, used social media to take the resistance to a more sophisticated level.

The alternative media practices used in the Gezi uprising have changed the political parameters and may yet create real institutions of popular power.
{ 6 comments }
The Gezi movement lacks the media support it needs to inflict damage on the AKP. To prevent a premature death, it will have to attach itself to a party.
{ 10 comments }
Nowhere has the post-Gezi clampdown been felt more acutely than in the media, where corporate ownership remains the greatest threat to press freedom.
{ 8 comments }
"We want everyone to see that yes, we paid a price but we do not mourn. I will mourn internally and will continue to fight; we are a family of fighters."
{ 8 comments }
While the peace process remains frayed, the Gezi protests did make many apolitical citizens in Turkey aware of the government's repression of the Kurds.
{ 11 comments }
The large presence of women in the Gezi uprising was not just an act for women's rights; it was a milestone in the politicization of women's identities.
{ 15 comments }
We need to be cautious not to attach an overly optimistic meaning to Gezi — the rebellion against the Sultan may yet complete his neoliberal project.

Through the transformative power of aesthetics and creative narrative, the çapulcu managed to keep ahead of the forces that would deny them their freedom.

And I got in a fight with Billy Mankowski. What happened? He hit me. Did you hit him back? Good. Rule number one, remember? Never start a fight, always finish it. Why'd he hit you? Because I hit him. You hit him first? Why? He said my dad ran off because he didn't like me. Honey, your father never met you, so how could he not like you? Then why did he leave? Well, because the day you were born, something else arrived in the mail. And it was in a box a little bit bigger than you. You know what was in it? Something called responsibility. And to some people, responsibility is the scariest thing in the world. So, he ran away because he was scared of what was in that box? Uh-huh. That's just dumb. That is exactly what I thought.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
Richard Herrin beat his girlfriend to death with a hammer as she was sleeping in her bedroom at her parents home. The murder is known as The Yale Murder, because Herrin was a Yale graduate and his girlfriend was enrolled as a student. Although this case dates back to 1977, the murder and this book are important, because this case and the writings about the case had an impact on society and attitudes toward the insanity defensespecifically the temporary insanity defense. In the end, Herrin was convicted of manslaughter and not first degree murder. The argument were complex. The defense first played off Herrins background. He grew up in a minority neighborhood in Las Angeles. With the cards stacked against him, Herrin was able to keep his record clean, to succeed, and to be granted entrance to and scholarship assistance to attend an Ivy league school. The gist of the case was that Herrin was a good person who simply snapped, because his girlfriend expressed a need to see other men. Bonnie Garland began dating this senior student when she first arrived at Harvard as a member of the priviledged class. Once she became involved in a traveling singing group and once she pulled away a bit and focused more on her studies, she felt that it was important to keep her options open and explore. Being totally focused on a relationship had not allowed her to grow much. The separation (when Herrin went to Texas for grad school) opened many new doors that a very young student might miss when totally absorbed with a relationship. She did not write off Herrin. In fact, he was a guest in her home when he decided that she must die and that he would follow by suicide. Herrin had one girlfriend before Bonnie. He left that relationship with very hard feelings for the girl who also felt the need to see others. He remained very bitter about this first love and stayed rather fixated until Bonnie filled this void. He was determined that Bonnie would not slip through his fingers as the first girl had. Clearly, his first and second relationships were smothering and not healthy for either the girls or for Herrin. While its no uncommon for college romances to be pretty dramatic at times, most young men and women simply learn, grow, and move on. A relationship that may work at one point may not be ideal for the long haul. Though it can be hard to accept, that is simply the reality. In the case of Herrin, he could not make a life based on his own future goals and without a partner. While he could have spent time on his graduate studies and focused his extra energy in productive ways or could have established some other meaningful relationships both with females and male friends, he opted to sit and stew about the woman far away on singing trips overseas and then back at his alma Mata. Uninvited, Herrin made the trip back east to see Bonnie. Though she avoided him, she did ultimately invite him back to stay at her home. In her own bedroom after she turned in to sleep, Herrin searched the house for a tool to kill the girl. He found a hammer and beat her in the head repeatedly as the parents were sound asleep downstairs. He then ran away covered in blood with plans to commit suicide. Or, that is what he later said. Frankly, the I was boo-hoo going to kill myself is a rather lame lament coming from someone who could and did murder but could not manage to end his own life. Ive heard this threat several times with men hoping to force women to stay in bad relationships. Its a cheap shot that I dont tolerate. Herrin ended up at a Catholic church he just happened across where he confessed his sins. Its not like this whole thing was NOT going to be figured out. The priest did work with Herrin and made the calls to confirm and then the arrangements for Herrin to turn himself in. In fact, the family discovered the death of the daughter based on these reports. They slept through the murder and only knew they lost a daughter after a call requesting that they check on her. She was alive when they went upstairs but died shortly after. Both the Catholic church and the Yale community gathered forces behind Herrin. They provided monetary support as well as coming out in force for the trial. He got the victim treatment while the Garland family were left hanging as the case in many high profile trials. This story, in part, helped victims become a bit more organized for future such cases. It really is a shame that do-gooders put so much energy into saving those that really do not deserve the assistance while totally overlooking the real victimsthe ones that will forever have a void where that loved one is simply dead and gone. Hitting Herrin with a hard conviction would not bring Bonnie back, but it would suggest that her life had value. To call beating a sleeping young woman in the head to death and then calling that manslaughter is simply beyond comprehension. Some interviews with Herrin suggest that he thinks that he has paid his dues and should be allowed to continue on with his life. He sounds like he has totally bought into the idea that he is the real victim as a child of poverty who simply snapped one day and did something not so nice. In all likelihood he is out on the streets now though I have not read any updates on the case. All I can say is woe to any woman who gets hooked up with a guy who murders and then thinks that the murder is a result of his own personal circumstances. Had he been, in fact, mentally ill, then perhaps there could be some reason to think that he could make changes. Given that this was billed temporary insanity but based on a history of odd sounding expectations about relationships, I sure would not consider Herrin a good bet for rehabilitation. Another interesting thing about Herrin and his growth (if you can call it that) is that he rejected his religion. Being Catholic served his purposes as he planned his way into the Ivy League. Priests and nuns were very supportive and out in force at the trial. This clearly worked to his advantage. Now that he is through the rough part, he considers himself an atheist. I must wonder what the members of the church who stood behind him must feel about this turn of events. Peter Meyer (the author of the book) covers the trial in rather typical true crime format. The story covers the background, relationship, the murder, and the trail. Meyers book is well researched in general and well written. It is definitely a cut above the rip and writes that often land on the sales racks today. In addition to covering the case, he adds, at the end, some thoughts about the justice system and about the temporary insanity defense. He notes changes which were only then being considered at the time. Today, it would be much more difficult to pull off this hand slap offered to a cold blooded murderer. In part, the case of Richard Herrin fueled this reexamination. It was simply hard to buy that he had this one moment of insanity while being able to locate the family hammer and then flee the scene. Clearly, he knew that it was not right to beat his girlfriend to death even if he did go on and on about her being his whole life. Most people do not destroy those people (or even things) that do matter to them. Though the book is dated and though the style can be a bit 70ish, I would consider this an important book in the genre of true crime. The project was both well executed and has had historical significance and an impact on how we view murders and murderers today. Anyone interested in crime, the legal system, and in victim rights would be well served by checking out or buying a copy.

Melbourne, Jan 17 : One half of US electro group LMFAO - Redfoo has sent tongues wagging after he followed tennis star Victoria Azarenka, around the WTA Tour events for the best part of a year.
The frizzy-haired muso has been the world No. 1's most vocal supporter since she started her Australian Open campaign on Monday, the Daily Telegraph reported.
However, the musician was coy when asked by Channel 7 about exactly what is going on.
"I don''''t like to kiss and tell," he told the network.
"But we are really close, and she's a very special person and I'm very happy in my life right now," he said.
It seems the pair has also developed their own "signal" to each other during matches which consists of both raising their fingers and sticking out their tongues. (ANI)

Link to Original Source
Slashdot stories can be listened to in audio form via an RSS feed, as read by our own robotic overlord.
I find it telling how to LP "the Unix way" is to have everything in the same repository and developed by the same people: "What's typical for Unix, for example, is that all the tools, the C library, the kernel, are all maintained in the same repository, right? And they're released in sync, have the same coding style, the same build infrastructure, the same release cycles - everything's the same. "
He only needed to google a bit to find this, but it is telling that he won't even give himself to the trouble. It is even funnier when later in the interview he claims to listen to people!
All in all, an interesting propaganda piece, a re-hash of previous ones done by LP on his blog.
I've been bit by a similar systemd issue. The only way to get it to work is to boot from a USB key or from cd, and force a fsck on all your filesystem. Apparently some systemd versions have race conditions with fsck and won't mount / unless the fsck ended successfuly. Add that to another bug where it won't show a console...
I think these have by now been fixed, but I had your problem also with arch linux, some months ago, on at least two pcs.
Systemd's occasional (read: frequent in one of my pcs) failure to shutdown is how I found out that the devs had decided that sysreq was too dangerous for the users to have and had to be disabled.
So I was stuck with a system waiting forever for something to shutdown, and without being able to use sysreq to kill all the processes and unmount file systems safely. Of course, the only way out was a hardware reset, with the subsequent log corruption that let me with no hints on why systemd would not allow my pc to shutdown. Well, at least it got me moving to evaluate the still rational linux distributions out there, as well as the *BSDs, something I had been procrastinating for a few months.
Seems like you're wrong, they added support for systemd dbus calls, but no dependency on systemd libs. It will use it if it's there, but doesn't require it.
This message has a small description of what they did. Too bad other developers don't want to be this conscious and prefer to link with systemd libs, needed or not.
They laughed at Einstein. They laughed at the Wright Brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown. -- Carl Sagan

Linux Journal Editor Doc Searls to Keynote at iCitizen
iCitizen is a symposium in Columbus, Ohio serving as a platform for clients and partners of Resource Interactive to gather and take a deep dive into the opportunities and challenges offered by that new breed of consumer—who we call the icitizen. The social web gives a voice to those passionate consumers and offers effective tools for them to create, share and influence each other and the brands they incorporate into their lives.
Doc's May 21st keynote is titled, "Next on the Open Horizon". iCitizen publicizes it as: Web visionary Searls isn't much interested in making the current ad-centric "attention economy" more engaging. He wants to replace it altogether with an "intention economy" that matches consumers' intent to purchase a specific product with any and all relevant brands. Is this nirvana for marketers or does this economy render them obsolete? And will Searls's Vendor Relationship Management get us there?
Carlie Fairchild is the publisher of Linux Journal.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

This is a very well timed capture Ann, always wanted to get a shot of a cormorant. You've captured this one brilliantly. Well done
Last Modified By LukeParkinson at 11 Sep 2010 - 8:00 AMWell timed captures Ann - well done !
Well captured Ann. Its great when something unexpected turns up.
Superb shot. For me #3 is the best of an excellent set
Fantastic timing, Ann, what a great capture! The fish looks like a Perch, if so I bet that scratched the poor fellow's throat, as their fins are really spikey. Very well seen and taken set!
Right place, right time as you say, and opportunity well seized. I think I prefer V2, but it's close. Mind, this has given me indigestion just looking at it!
Super nature photography once again Ann, wonderful observation and capture.
It looks like it's sinking with all that its eaten! Three excellently timed and captured images, Ann, wonderful work, well done.
Absolutely cracking capture - fantastic!
A terrific catch Ann, you've timed this one impecably
3 excellent shots Ann- splendid timing - I bet you were thrilled to bits to capture these !!!

Vinegar is an incredibly versatile product and has become a household staple as it is cheap, widely available, and can be used for just about anything. One misconception about vinegar is that it is a good way to clean and descale coffee machines. While it may sound self-serving, here's why it is a bad idea to use vinegar: 1. The vinegar leaves a strong odor (as everyone knows) that can co-mingle with coffee oil, turning your fresh brew into a "fresh ew." 2. It does not clean! While vinegar might be able to gently break down some hard water deposits, it does not effectively clean your coffee machine or remove oils. 3. It takes forever to rinse: our tests show that vinegar takes 3.5 times longer to rinse out of a drip brewer or capsule machine than does Dezcal,Full Circle Descaler, or other Urnex Brands, Inc. products. There you have it: vinegar is great for almost anything. Rather than waste water trying to rinse out your semi-cleaned and now-smelly coffee machine, use a professionally formulated coffee machine cleaner or descaler. And to prove that we at Urnex do not hate vinegar, here are a few of our favorite places to use vinegar (just some of the 1,001 ways to use vinegar): 1. Wacky cake—quick rise cake made without yeast, eggs, butter, or milk 2. Easter eggs—vinegar is an important component for coloring! 3. Window cleaner—simply combine vinegar, water, and some elbow grease! 4. Salad dressing—it's as easy as olive oil and vinegar! 5. Pickling—come on, who doesn't love pickles?
Urnex Full Circle Coffee Grinder Cleaning Tablets
Back to TopUrnex Full Circle™ Coffee Grinder Cleaning Tablets are the way to clean your coffee grinder without using any water. Cleaning a grinder is a challenge because water cannot be used on the burrs or around electric motors. The process of opening or disassembling a grinder can be intimidating due to the small parts and electrics inside the machine.
When ground through your coffee grinder, the Urnex Full Circle patented, food safe grinder cleaning tablets are an easy way to remove the coffee residue and oil that lead to bitter tasting coffee. And you do it without removing any parts of your machine!
It is recommended to use Full Circle™ coffee grinder cleaning tablets once a month or when switching between flavored, decaffeinated, and regular beans.
Urnex Full Circle™ represents the first environmentally responsible and effective portfolio of coffee equipment cleaning products. The line is void of any ingredients derived from petroleum and phosphates.
- All ingredients are found in food or derived from plants.
- Labels printed digitally to reduce emissions.
- 100% recyclable packaging
- All ingredients are listed openly on the package.
- Each product label shares characteristics about the ingredients.
Is there any utility in using the Urnex Full Circle Coffee Grinder cleaning tablets on my Saeco Xelsis? I've had the machine for a 18 months, clean it regularly, but NEVER cleaned the built in grinder. Please advise.
Thank you for your question. I do not suggest running these tablets through the machine. While they will not harm anything, they are really only meant for standalone burr grinders. The only way to run them through on the Xelsis would be to grind them up and brew them. You would have to grind many times, each time the cleaning product would also brew. This is going to leave residues from the cleaning product behind. While the grinder tablets are non toxic and safe to consume, they are going to leave calcium deposits in the brew circuit of the machine, and this will affect the flavor of the coffee brewed. The best way to clean the grinder in this machine is to scoop out all of the beans, and then take a vacuum and vacuum out the bean hopper as thoroughly as possible.
Among the features listed here are: "All ingredients are listed openly on the package" Can someone please list them here, so I can see them before purchasing the product? Thank you
I found a link that may interest you about this product. It's the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). If you look in the second section, you will see something quite interesting about the ingredients in this cleaner. In a good way, of course!

Linux Mint Debian is the latest version of Linux Mint. Unlike other versions of Mint, it is not based on Ubuntu, but rather on Debian Testing, and comes with a brand new installer. Also, unlike the Ubuntu-based versions, the installer does not have an automatic disk partitioning feature – it requires manual disk partitioning with GParted.
This tutorial provides a detailed guide on how to partition a single disk for installing Linux Mint Debian.
