Creating OSE Community in Germany | OSE Europe. Paradigms are shifting and new practical solutions are needed. This year we want to start an Open Source Ecology (OSE) community in Germany and we are looking for a Dedicated Team to make this happen. The people involved in the project will be sharing openly and for free economically significant information. We want to open source the ecology of the environmental, societal and technological systems so that we contribute directly to the creation of an open source economy – an economy that optimizes both production and distribution, while providing environmental regeneration and social justice.
We start with the technology needed for the creation of a small scale civilization with modern comforts – the Global Village Construction Set and other relevant tools. From tractors, wind turbines to cars. Every technology will be developed with values like modularity, simplicity, lifetime design, low-cost, closed loop manufacturing, Do-It-Yourself, flexible fabrication and high performance. Wikileaks et la Guerre Mondiale de l'Information par Andrew Gavin MARSHALL. Introduction La publication récente des 250.000 documents de Wikileaks a soulevé un intérêt sans précédent, provoquant tout un éventail de réactions - des plus positives au plus négatives. Mais une chose et sûre : Wikileaks est en train de changer la donne. Il y a ceux qui prennent les contenus des documents publiés par Wikileaks pour argent comptant, principalement à cause de leur présentation erronée donnée par les grands médias commerciaux.
Il y a ceux qui considèrent que ces documents sont authentiques et qu’il suffit de savoir les interpréter et de les analyser. Puis il y a ceux, dont beaucoup font partie des médias alternatifs, qui émettent des doutes. Il y a ceux qui considèrent ces fuites tout simplement comme une opération de manipulation qui vise certains pays précis, dans l’intérêt de la politique étrangère des Etats-Unis. Et enfin, il y a ceux qui déplorent les fuites et les qualifient de « trahison » ou d’atteinte à la « sécurité ». Encore une fois, examinons les sources. Near Field Communications: a technology primer. Near field communication (NFC) has recently popped up in the news. The technology is most closely associated with mobiles phones—Google has added support for NFC in Android, and Samsung has NFC hardware in its Nexus S handset, while Apple is rumored to be adding NFC support to future iPhones. NFC is an evolution of the simple RFID technology employed in "contactless" payment systems such as MasterCard PayPass and Visa payWave.
It's also similar to (and compatible with) the FeliCa system used widely in Asia for mobile payments and ticketing systems. In this article, we'll tell you what NFC is, how it works, and how it can be used. RFID and FeliCa: NFC precursors NFC is an evolution of the original specifications used to create RFID tags and contactless payment systems. Type A communication uses Miller bit coding with a 100 percent amplitude modulation. Type B uses variations of Manchester encoding along with a 10 percent modulation. Evolution, not revolution.
