And I'll repeat my reply to that answer. Why not just have it always point to a multiple of the *current* minimum wage instead of fixing it to that year?
They are just about controlled by the content studios now. That's what Netflix asked for by moving to a streaming model. They aren't going to make a move like that if it angers one of their content providers who also happen to sell to the cable company named in the lawsuit.
Most of the cable companies have PLENTY of infrastructure. They just WANT more money,and they want to make sure that you aren't using a competing service over their wires. I'm in a neighborhood that is not oversold, and I get 20mbps just about whenever I want it. My bill has no reason to go up, except to make up for my Netflix subscription I have instead of cable tv.
The only way that adds up is if their video side was operating at cost. Sounds like they're saying if all their customers drop video entirely, their video equipment and licensing costs would also drop to zero.
Agreed. This is just going to have phone companies aggressively rolling out fiber. They've already lost their landline customers for good. Cable's not convinced people aren't going back to TV. In the meantime, the telephone companies can steal them all back. Personally, I'm in a decent sized city that doesn't have DSL at my address. Why? I have no idea. Here's hoping for fiber or VDSL in the next couple years.
That's worthless if you want 5.1 AC3 audio - that doesn't fit in an MPEG2 container in any way that consumer electronic devices like. If you have a home theater receiver, that matters.
For that matter, Apache has mod_proxy_http which does the same thing without rewrite rules. I have one external IP addresses and several subdomains running on my personal server that point to other hosts via mod_proxy_http. Works fairly well for me. Why would you use mod_rewrite for this unless you're only doing a subfolder?
Yeah - I know that it's common usage, it just seems weird to me and just strange that a technically very female word was used in such a way. But I don't pronounce WebOS like that. Oh Ess, not ohs. Maybe I'm different.
You mean huevos? Yes, you do pronounce the spanish word for eggs much like you could possibly pronounce WebOS. Doesn't make sense to me, though, how huevos also became synonymous with any male parts - Biology 101 says girls make eggs. I can assure you that if I make huevos rancheros that they are made with chicken eggs.
The public won't know the difference. McAfee will probably just pay HP and the like to disable Microsoft's free A/V and pre-install the trial of their own software. The end user won't know anything's different from the last time they bought a computer. Most of them are more likely to renew the pre-installed A/V than to install MS Security Essentials or AVG already. I can imagine just as many won't remove McAfee to reactivate the included free A/V.
Slashdot Mirror
1080i is 59.94 fields/sec. What are you talking about?
I stand corrected. They run at 144fps.
At least in the case of RealD, no - they've installed two 24fps 2D projectors with different polarizations.
And I'll repeat my reply to that answer. Why not just have it always point to a multiple of the *current* minimum wage instead of fixing it to that year?
I mean as a moving target. Not based on minimum wage at a fixed point in time.
I believe you don't realize that there's two very similar words in use in American vs. British English.

Why codify a number that is subject to inflation. Why not a multiple of minimum wage?
And if you work in an at-will employment state, you get fired and re-hired with the new terms or walk.
By the way, this isn't about working overtime at your normal rate. It's about working overtime for free.
OK - pay JUST by usage. I'm OK with 10 cents/GB. Though I'd hope the price would come down from there.

Why not just jump to 4K? Youtube already has 4k content (although a very small amount, and compressed to ridiculous levels).
Are you a cable TV technician?
You mean humus,right? That is, unless you're suggesting a spontaneous conversion into chickpeas.
RAID isn't a backup, but the original optical discs are...

What's your point? I don't refer to them as "balls" either.

I can only guess on that being for cropping photos direct from a memory card for printing. That's the ONLY demand I could think of.

Even better - the Kindle with Special offers leaves a picture on the screen when it's "off."
