What do you mean? That radio technology is not going to be relevant in the future?

If thats the case then you would be very wrong. Look at anything "wireless". That is all radio technology.

I can't imagine anything other than radio being useful in a military setting either. Any sort of physical medium is prone to sabotage and destruction, and it is why we moved away from running battlefield phones as much as we could have after WW1. Radio allows elements to work independently of any physical infrastructure, and when coupled with satellite relay allows them to transmit huge distances with ease.

The only other medium I could see (which is still electromagentic radiation, the same as radio) would be over the air optical networks, but those require direct line of sight and are not able to "multicast" like a traditional radio network (as in you have to aim it at the receptor, much like highly directional radio system).

Radio is highly important and will be till something like quantum teleportation or some other means of remotely changing physical properties negates the need for an actual medium between two locations (and since I do not see that happening in any significant fashion for hundreds of years its not really a problem business wise for me ).

Some of the radio systems I work with are actually pretty neat though. For example radios like the AN/PRC-343 or similar radios use ad-hoc 802.11x mesh networks to communicate voice data. Even the larger radio systems use a traditional network topology, though usually with some pretty heavy data rate penalties (more so when doing electronic counter-countermeasures).

Thats the thing, they are already sold. Australia is the home of it actually and one of the largest users of the platform.

NATO is also a user, which is tens of thousands of seats across multiple countries.

Writing a game for the lowest common denominator is harder than it seems. Farmvile for example, The whole thing was coded by a couple of guys in just a few weeks time, but to put together a plan for a game thats simple enoough that even the biggest idiot can play it, yet enticing enough to keep those that have progressed slightly beyond eating crayons took a lot of work...


At least i guess so, any concept i come up with, i dismiss just as quickly as its too complicated for the casual fb user.

nah i was laughing at jp post. btw you never said how old you are.

Check my profile you fucking moron. God damn.

That didn�t answer the question. How long before you�re a self-sufficient adult?

I know what your profile says. I wanted to see if you could answer a direct question about yourself truthfully. Apparently not.

I am 25, how you didn't know that, when I have stated it countless times before and when it seems of such importance to you now, is rather silly.

Probably after the first or second sale, at least with the numbers I have seen.

I think there's more money in Embers Breaks
