Let DHCP set the IP address. For the rest, you would rather walk down there and read the screen than click on a web page? Yes, you may need to walk to it anyway to resolve the issue, but you'll know what to bring with you.
So why are they forced to pay in pensions now for theoretical future workers who haven't been born yet? Surely it is sufficient to fund pensions for their current employees.
I can't really fathom why the GOP wants the USPS dead, but they clearly do.
Note that the big package innovators like UPS and FedEx often use USPS for the last mile delivery because it's cheaper than doing it themselves.
The ubiquitous zip code used by all of them plus all those find the nearest whatever web forms was invented by USPS so they could automate sorting and routing.
I have had things damaged by all of the carriers in transit at one time or another. Only USPS didn't try to weasel out of the insurance.
It's not just a matter of weight, it's also the tension and maintaining minimum clearance between cables. Not to mention a constant battle with providers claiming someone else's crew damaged their lines.
To get real competition going, you'll want more like 50-100 including some mon-n-pop shops. For that, you really need to lease a public utility line for them to share.
Not really. My small laser printer is networked (wireless no less) and has no screen. Just status lights and a web server I can check for diagnostics. A screen would be less convenient.
The problem is that this is after the fact. They offered, he accepted and paid. Then, later on they wish to make additional demands and have now disabled capabilities that were part of the original deal.
From a practical standpoint, it's little different from them breaking in and replacing his TV with a lesser model.
It literally IS their role to be nice to society. Corporate charters are supposed to be strictly in the public interest and are supposed to be dissolved should that cease to be the case.
Otherwise, it is also not my role to be nice to society and you should hold me blameless when I cheat your granny out of her life savings (all in a perfectly legal and binding contract, of course).
It's isn't particularly bright to show up to an interview at less than 100%.
At the same time, I wouldn't consider someone having a couple drinks at lunch (one if you're a lightweight, and none if work involves dangerous machinery) to be such a bad thing in most cases. As with everything, not all old practices were bad and not all were good. Baby and bathwater, etc.
As others have pointed out, it's still common practice in many places.
That would limit the competition to the huge players we already know and hate. Fiber gets expensive if you try to wire a metro area. It took the promise of a monopoly to get the first cable run normally, because otherwise, getting a return on the investment was in doubt.
Just so long as you know those municipal ISPs were made up of those government union people. And since they built out because the other telecoms refused to, they had no active competition (but didn't forbid it).
Did you read TFA at all? They were supposed to look at just one user's metadata but tried to expand it to cover all users data and metadata so they could have themselves a nice fishing expedition.
He didn't refuse to comply, he just needed some time to get advice on what he ACTUALLY had to do to comply. Being stuck under a gag order certainly didn't speed up that process. The feds were mad because when they said jump, he didn't salute and ask how high before the echo of their words faded.
The funny thing is, everyone spins faster but it's just spinning in place. No more of worth gets accomplished. For all that talk about internet speed, real accomplishments move slower than ever.
The problem is that they saw IV as a child. It was epic in a way things can only be epic to a child. No adult viewing of the prequels could possibly live up to that.
Beyond that, in 1977 it was new. The effects were leaps and bounds beyond the last action sci-fi flick. Even the theater technology was just upgraded (remember when 'in 35mm' was a thing?).
Based on toys, It looks like the kids now reacted to the prequels about the way we reacted to IV-VI.

Have you checked the tracking? Are you sure they didn't just tell you "it's in the mail"?

My wife and I occasionally like suggesting alternative dialog for the ads. I doubt the advertisers would enjoy my alternative slogans and dialog.

Is that you Vader?

They were built using tax money as a loan, as voted for by the people in a democratic referendum (IIRC).
And an article where one of the parties is gagged by the other is sure to be unbiased.
Just so long as you know those municipal ISPs were made up of those government union people. And since they built out because the other telecoms refused to, they had no active competition (but didn't forbid it).
So if we bring even one thing back, we automatically have to have all the others?
Besides, the drinks at lunch continued well after the other things went away.
How do you explain the municipal ISPs (where they managed to get past the raft of lawsuits from ISPs) that are several times faster AND cheaper.
But if they go with actual fiber, the capabilities are for the most part dictated by the equipment at either end.
Any ideas to get that competition thing going?
Personally, I support making the actual last mile wiring a public utility. Let ISPs share them.
I'm going to go with the article where the person involved actually commented.
Or they all detected your attitude and so didn't mention it.

It used to be fairly common to have a couple drinks at lunch.
Nah, they'd be just like all those black belt wannabees we have today.
Only a few would actually accomplish master status.
