Hell I'm on RoadRunner and have been lobbying them to switch us over to a internal 10 address on my local sub-net. If they do, I doubt we'll get Ipv6 before 20/20 Hindsight becomes useful.
and it's idiot's like you that give idiots a bad rep. First off, TFA indicates that it's an overage charge by AT&T. In other words, their billing practices are to over charge you for even having the damn thing and as they stated in the summary, it's like going to the store and buying a 2 litre bottle of Cola only to discover that the bottle had 1.8 litre in it.
What the real point these lawyers are looking at is making this a class action lawsuit so they can cash in on the problem instead of the customers by racking up lots of Fees that get paid.
That's my take on this issue. Sure there may be a problem and it needs to be resolved but this is the States and Corps run this country not the people anymore.
At least they admit they don't have a clue as to what in hell is happening. In this case, they're asking others to duplicate their research, which is properly following the scientific method, so we can get more data and hopefully someone can come up with a hypothesis.
Must be nice to have an ISP that offers ipV6 as mine doesn't. OF course what this means is that anything that's ipV6 only is inaccessible to me and as I'm in the United States, where they are getting ready to implement their own version of the "Great Firewall", it means I'm screwed and all the businesses that depend on ipV6 customers wont have anything to do with folks here.
Although it's easiest to learn to speak English and the reason for this is the limited number of sounds - the last I read was 33 in the language. What drives people nuts is how screwy our rules of spelling and grammar are as they are derived from multiple sources, such as Welsh, Latin, French, German, Norman/Saxon and god only knows where else.
What I would like to see is people forget the damn spelling rules and simply spell words as the sound as that allows people to concentrate on getting ideas across instead of worrying about spelling "to/too" correctly.
Now the question is, why in hell should my browser support H264 when it's the OS that should support it? That's the exact reason for a Standard. Support by the OS and keep the many software packages as lean as possible and yet everyone is bitching that Opera and Chrome have dropped support when Firefox included it since it's supported by the OS through a plug-in. Windows Media Player for MS and Quicktime for Apple. What does *nix have? Nothing legal that I'm aware of
Keep in mind that the ARM design house is just that, a Design House that produces no actual hardware except for a limited number of test chips. Due to that, they make their money by licensing the design to anyone who wants to use it and both AMD and Intel can easily pay those fees if it makes a profit.
MS announced an ARM based Windows for the same reason that Apple switched to Intel. Keeping their options open and the NT kernel (used in Win2k/XP/Vista/Win7+) was designed for easy porting to new hardware while keeping the many Windows API's stable for compatibility.
The most common reason given by hardware makers for their poor linux support is a lack of stable kernel AP/B i's. Simply put, Linus changes things to frequantly for the hardware makers to keep up and a good example is the Nvidia drivers having to be recompiled every kernel update. That's a real PITA for the hardware makers since MS has provided a stable API for the last 10+ years with the NT kernel.
the fun thing about webbrowsers is that they open lots of tcp connections, then barely send any packets at all (ie. connection generally closes after 4-5 packets tops - sometimes after 2 packets). If you lose the first packet in a connection, which is quite likely when browsing, the SRTT algorithm has no choice but to wait 2 minutes before retry - guaranteeing the user will have to interfere (ie. "F5"). This results in the massive deterioration of web browsing experience with trivially small packet loss.
and this is exactly why I have FF set to use a single connection per server. Yes it's counter intuitive but it seems to actually speed up my web browsing and I'm on a basic cable plan (512/256) with multiple computers in the household online.
and that's one of the reasons I added the Google DNS server as a secondary to my router. Solves the damn problem when TW/RR suffers another DNS failure.
Only thing is, it doesn't work that way in Windows simply because the damn / folder is part of the/user data folder. Due to that, you have to map each users/home folder on an individual basis and mapping more then a couple of folders/drives will slow boot/shutdown times considerably. Another issue is "Unlike *nix" MS didn't see fit to isolate the damn/root "/admin" folder from the/home "/user data" folder, meaning you simply can't relocate/home "/user data" to another drive.
Another issue is that the folder/drive mapping is on a user by user basis and the reason it slows shit down is the fact that Windows wants to cache the data from those mapped locations in the offline cache location. So now it copies all of that data back into "C" drive because the idiots at MS couldn't take a page from the *nix folks and use a design that's trully engineered for multiple users. I've got Vista (32/64) Win7 (32/64) and both Pro/Ultimate do not make it easy to do any of that.
Oh I'll admit that there may be some third party tools that could do it but they'll probably cost more then I can afford or the local mom and pop shop is willing to spend on IT infrastructure.
They've got a freebie that works nicely on Windows and uses the standard GenCon file format. If you need to do more in depth research, then you can go to any LDS Church and access the family history branch for more information. Note that any links to the Middle East is going to require more effort such as heading to Utah and the main LDS Geneology Repository to investigate.
Then you're using it wrong. What I do is simply keep the files I want synced in one of the dropbox folders and work on them directly - no dupes and problem solved.
Move to a local Credit Union. Cheaper fees and much better service along with responsiveness. I did and Yes I have Direct Deposit, Online Banking with Bill Pay, far better interest on my savings and checking plus a much better rate on my credit card. Another advantage is that a credit union can not pull this kind of shit as the members cand and should review the leadership on a regular basis, then decide if they need replacement.
and blizzard is already adressing this problem through the use of 2nd channel Authentication. If you've got a Blizzard account, simply spend the $7.00 U.S and buy their stand-alone authenticator and configure your account to use it. Problem solved and cheaply at that.
And this is why I use Noscript in Whitelist only mode plus a very nice hosts file that gets updated regularly from the many online versions.
The funny thing is, I started blocking Doubleclick and other advertisers over 10 years ago while still on dial-up since they caused lots of pages to load very slowly. Put em in the hosts files and suddenly many pages loaded very quickly as they weren't waiting on doubleclick/other advertiser and never changed things.
The main issue here is that Apple sells the same data that the Magazines want for free. That's right. Apple is doing exactly what the Magazines are doing. selling our personal information for a profit instead of the magazine getting that information for that can then be sold to the marketers.
They Can't? Strange, they've got the money to afford the Lawyers and pay off the judges in the case of a DUI involving a fatality. To me that's getting away with Murder (Killing someone). They're also major stock holders in corporations that sell products that kill thousands if not millions of people (Bhopal India) - Mass Murder and don't forget Enron. How many people lost their life savings there plus the manipulation of the California Energy Crisis? How many folks died there due to the rolling blackouts - elederly and sick folks on medical equipment?
There's alot that the wealthy do that impact the middle/lower classes directly. Things such as the so called War on Terror. Who started the war? It sure as hell wasn't the American People. It was the Fat Rich Cats who think Profit at all Cost is the only way to make money. To hell with ethics and responsibilities.
Sprint is bringing out several models of WP7 next year and I'm looking at one of them due to proposed features. Sure with the WP7 having been released by a single carrier in the States, things aren't looking too good for them right now but it's going to change in the spring.
Well - The U.K. Prime minister is an ass. Of course the American Diplomat is a damn blinking fag, so we're even. Those kinds of comments would probably be laughed at by the Brits and American citizens who'd quietly aggree and then go about their daily business.
Had a 1968 Dodge Dart - Western Sport Special. It had a 318 CiD (5.3L) and was equiped with factory Air, Auto Trans and had Disk Brakes up front. Averaged 22MPG Hgwy running 75-80 in So.Cal with the A/C on during the summer. Had over 350k Miles on it when I sold it with minimal maintenance. Funny thing is, my new Tracker with 3L v6 only doesn't get better milage and it's a 2003 model - last year Chevy Offered them. Of course it's 1 ton heavier and includes full 4 wheel drive (Transfer case/front diff/cv joints - hi/lo range).
Please, this is not meant in any offense to anyone from the UK, I'm just curious . . . and stupid!If you were stupid, you'd not be asking the question at all. In this case, You are asking in order to reduce your ignorance and that's a good thing.

The best method is to subject the object to a Plasma stream. Works for Magnetic, Optical, Electrical and Thermal storage mediums.
