That info is over a year old, precedes their "2G is dead" transition under which those rules were originally formed (they used to actually kick you off to the 2G network), and doesn't match the real world experience of T-Mobile users (myself included). But if it's the latest official definition, then so be it.
The fact sheet for the new plan does not state that video is limited to SD. It says unlimited SD video is included. The "unlimited" here almost certainly refers to "doesn't count" (as the whole plan itself is already unlimited). There is NO indication that you're forced to be on SD unless you pay $25 more. The $25 add-on gives you unlimited HD video. The only thing that makes sense is, again, the "unlimited" here meaning "doesn't count". There's nothing to support the idea that they BLOCK HD video in any way (explicit blocking or throttling to make it nonviable).
The plan doesn't actually go up for sale for 3 more weeks. Whether or not someone who has it can turn off the throttling is unknown, but you're assuming they won't be able to go to the existing Binge On setting and turn it off to get HD video on detected traffic. There's no reason to think this. The only way an additional $25 makes sense is if it's an extension of Binge On that removes the throttling but keeps the "doesn't count" shit.
Just claim that you've deaf and you need everything in text. If they even think about firing you, laying you off, not promoting you, excluding you, etc. you sue, sue, sue.
You're really going to have to cite something for all of those points.
You get throttled to "2G" when roaming in other countries just as you do when you hit your full-speed cap. I can tell you from experience it isn't anywhere near as low as 128 kbps.
Binge On doesn't throttle video traffic, it gives you lower quality streams when they detect video and change the stream quality. They can't do this for all video traffic because they simply don't know what all your traffic is. You had to opt IN to Binge On first. And yes, not opting in (or later opting out) means that Netflix, Youtube, etc. counts against your usage, as it would normally.
Further, there is NO indication of what the $25 add-on actually does. Go ahead and download the fact sheet. It simply says you get unlimited HD video. You're assuming that all video will be restricted to 480p. I'm saying it's more likely that without it, video that doesn't count against your data usage is limited to 480p, because we already have an existing feature like that (Binge On), and it's the only way "unlimited HD" makes sense with "unlimited data" with a full-speed cap when you hit the 97th percentile (currently 26 GB).
Or they wanted to do a comparison against parts at the same frequency to demonstrate the IPC and architectural improvements they're talking about. We don't know what Zen will be clocked at. We know this engineering sample runs at 3 GHz. Typically, engineering samples are clocked significantly lower than retail parts. Keep in mind that AM4 is new as well, and the motherboards in use are also test units, not mature retail units.
Skylake processors do not require Windows 10. They run fine on Windows 7.
Intel's newer USB controllers intentionally fucked over interactive Windows 7 (and older) installation by forcing xHCI mode. If you tried to use a keyboard or mouse over an Intel USB port it simply wouldn't work when the installer got to a certain point.
Because of the ensuing bitch fit and the Taiwanese motherboard manufacturers implementing their own fixes, Intel and MS were forced to release an official fix - tools for integrating the XHCI drivers into the Windows 7 installer.
Other fixes included using a PS/2 keyboard (all glory to PS/2 and its interrupts) and an optical drive (praise be to physical installation discs) or doing an unattended installation with an answer file.
AMD won't try to fuck people over with Zen. Windows 7 will be supported just as it is for their existing platforms.
And my $30 prepaid plan with 100 minutes, unlimited text, and unlimited data (5GB unthrottled) is better than your plan.
And the $10 unlimited (truly) data plan and unlimited text/sms add on I had on an old Cingular/AT&T line was better than that. AT&T changed my contract without my consent and removed that add-on. So I kicked them to the curb.
T-Mobile One has free tethering capped at 2G speed.
I'm pretty sure the 480p thing is similar to their "Binge On" thing. SD video doesn't count against your data usage with this net-neutrality-violating feature. HD video does. You can opt into Binge On to have Youtube, Netflix, etc. be fucked down to 480p by T-Mobile, or you can opt out at any time to not have it be fucked, but revert to having the SD video count against your data usage.
I don't know if you can simply tell Youtube, Netflix, etc. to give you the HD stream on an ad-hoc basis.
T-Mobile used to throttle you back to "2G", which they've killed off (or are almost done killing off). So T-Mobile now just throttles your speed to some undefined level.
Ain't gonna happend. Online lets software companies release shitty products ASAP because they know they can sort of fix them later on.
Online lets software companies release shitty products ASAP because they know retards will preorder them, pay in advance for unnamed DLC in a season-pass, pay extra for a limited/collector's/retailer-exclusive edition that comes with a different colored gun or a plastic figurine, be unable to get a damned refund in 99% of cases, and will wait for promised fixes that never come long enough that your front loaded sales are all in so you can get signed on to shit out a sequel which they will then preorder.
You're just factually incorrect. Intel rigged their compiler deliberately. This was shown in detail years ago when it happened and again when they got sued over it. They didn't pay out billions of nothing. Get real.
They've had multiple rounds of layoffs recently (or one round with the reported number increasing frequently). Intel will be a husk in less than 10 years if they keep this shit up.
Intel went out of its way to cripple software compiled using the ICC if it detected a non-Intel CPU, ignoring the standard flags the CPU exposed for extension and feature support.
The ICC is probably the most-used compiler for major software products. This is textbook anti-competitive behavior. There's a reason they got sued and lost.
Wouldn't work. If each tower has a unique certificate the (security conscious) phone owner would have to trust the new certificate and tower pair, possibly even referencing GPS coordinates.
Don't forget to strip them of their pensions and throw them in prison for the crimes committed, as well as allowing them to be held individually liable in any civil suit.
Why is my phone connecting to random towers all the damned time?
My phone should come with a list of certificates it trusts and should only connect to trusted towers. I should be able to edit this list as the owner of the phone. I should be able to accept updates to this list from my carrier (or any carrier of my choice), either as automatically and insecurely as I want (leaving "Auto" checked on the phone, or as carefully as I want (walk into the carrier's HQ and ask for a paper list of cert fingerprints for their towers and the towers of their partners).
I should be alerted whenever a new tower claiming to be a tower of my chosen carrier(s) is detected with an unmatched cert before my phone connects to it. I could then decide to blacklist it, check for an update that includes it so I can confidently add it, or just add it blindly and roll the dice.
For the same reasons CNF2 is sometimes better than CNF3. Sometimes the extra width on a table, extra storage requirements, and extra memory footprint (if you're trying to keep a whole table in memory) performs better than having yet another join. Sometimes you have an external table used as the source for multiple columns (Father's Occupation, Mother's Occupation) and you don't want two source tables or intermediary tables, but you do want a cascade relationship. Maybe you're storing a lot of "Yes" and "No" values or "Yes", "No" and NULL or blank or "Unknown". Flags in a table can handle that (1/0/NULL), and everything can be mapped on the front end.
Maybe you're dynamically going through a list of checkboxes on a form and need to track all the responses for each submissions. Do you have a table that links each submission to all of the checkboxes they submitted, and then have a table of checkboxes, and then join all 3 together every damned time? Fuck no, that's ridiculous. You store the checkboxes in the submission table (as flags or a bitmask) and maybe maintain a list of the column names in a separate table for dynamic processing. If you store 2 bitmasks on the submission table, one can serve as the dynamic piece (which checkboxes were submitted) and one serve as the response piece (checked or unchecked). A bitwise AND gets you the submitted and checked responses.
Maybe there's front end business logic that's more restrictive than your normalized database would be anyway, so you can ignore normalization in favor of performance in certain instances.
Is this saying that it's a MITM attack that can exploit a flaw in the kernel resulting in arbitrary code execution? If so, wouldn't a regular (compromised/malicious) website be able to do the same thing without the MITM being necessary, HTTPS or not?
If it's not saying that it's a MITM attack that can exploit a flaw in the kernel resulting in arbitrary code execution, WTF is it saying?
