How is it that everyone keeps screwing themselves with MSO when even if you pay for commercial use for libre office you come out way ahead. If you want to collaborate on a document or spreadsheet, you dont need to prostitute yourself to microsoft, its a case of being so self important and lazy that one more click or shifting between a telepresence application and an office suite application is to hard. All you people complaining about being down because msoffice products are unavailable need to get a grip on how to use a computer.

DO not create sock puppet cadres.
refrain from voting; flagging; and publishing bolstering comments from sock puppet accounts to support a marketing agenda. This does no good for HN or the container.
review the HN guidelines.

Dont spam HN with ads or comments that have no intellectual interest and no substantiative content

this is another take as well that could be of interest, not only xbox controllers but, some multiple of pelagic drones supplementing or extending periscopy. they should of course look like sea birds like cormorants or albatross

Im thinking all you need is one compromised element in a trusted hardware platform that is assumed to be secure.
the near $40000 price tag doesnt immediately suggest the hardware is any more secure than two tin cans and a string.
any idea what sort of security features are involved?

yes cheaper [et.al.], also durable as many gamers that go salty and rage after in game death would attest.
and the speed of reflashing a PIC modded device in the hands of even a novice picasm programmer is an interesting angle for field expedient repair/mods.

I hope the hardware is rigorously examined before use.
a hostile controll device would not be good.
