The equipment already supports streaming video. Hell when I was a dial-up ISP back in the 90's my old out of date crap supported streaming video. Whoever told you there was special equipment for streaming video support was lying to you.
What is happening is that ISP cant drastically like 50 to 1 oversell their bandwidth anymore, so they are whining that they have to actually buy the bandwidth they were promising their customers. IF the ISP's were less scummy they would offer Netflix rack space in their POP NOC for a streaming server that would drop their backbone load down.
You are just drooling at the idea of charging companies and your customers for access to each other. if you were a REAL ISP you would know that blocking malicious content has always been allowed in every net neutrality bill.
Wrong, the objections are just from losers that are jealous or anti technology. Anyone with half a brain knows the camera is not recording all the time and you cant start recording with just your mind.
Utterly entertained how 90% of the "outraged" comments here about "racist" are all from lilly white armchair activists.
Get off your Asses and into the streets and in the faces of the leaders, all of you just flap lips instead of actually doing something. Where were you when the law was up for a vote?
90% of the doors in the game are fake and you can not get into them. Honestly, all that does it make players think the developers just half assed the game, and in RAGE's instance it is... 2 full DVD's and it has a shorter single player game than most of the War games that are designed to be not single player.
Consumers have no clue...

The $5,600 Tablet

I rock a Panasonic Toughbook laptop and a Panasonic Toughbook tablet.
Toughpad FZ-A1 for my android tablet and a toughbook 31 I carry for work more money in tablet and laptop than most of you have every owned in your car. I work in very dusty and dirty environments programming smartbuildings while they are under construction.
The number of people that whine the,"OMG why did you buy that expensive thing" I then drop it on it's edge from 4 feet and then ask if their Nexus 7 is "the exact same thing" that they drop their on the edge right now. I own a nexus 7 they break if you look at them funny. I can read the screens better in direct sunlight, consumer tablets are unusable out in the direct sun.
Note: panasonic is a lot cheaper than this botique brand, and the Govt uses them on a regular basis.
It should, you are just not maintaining it 4 oil changes at $50 each = $200 Each year you should do one other service item, This year I had brake fluid flushed at $325 (I'm up to $525) next year is a transmission fluid and filter at $600. Last year I had the AC serviced to the tune of $400 and saved me from having an expensive Compressor failure later on. 2 years from now is time for a tuneup, etc....
And that is my honda civic. Most cars have about $600 in basic maintenance costs. Some need it more like the GM garbage that started to fall apart after 5 years.
if you drive a car you are insane, 2 miles can be leisurely walked in 15 minutes. get a small folding bicycle and you can make it there in less than 5 minutes.
Because mile ranges change based on driving.. Grandma can eat up the 100 mile range driving around in town on a 102 degree day without ever going more than 20 miles away from home.
You might like the possibility of having to push the car home, Grandma on the other hand does not.
Correct. I dont either. I just sit here. but I have worked for a living in a foundry, THOSE people actually work, us in the offices just screw around all day.
If you are one of the snobbish rich that say you are not rich but you have a nanny for your kids.... Oh sorry, an Au Pair, Nanny sounds so pompish... Then you are rich.
The fact that your income each year can put 10 families into homes and feed them IN THE USA is another good example of you are actually rich.
Yes, $25K a year is enough to put a small very poor family in a crackhouse apartment and feed them.
Yet another reason that I will never ever give comcast a dime of my money. These scumbags are claiming they must raise rates? They already make record profits.
No Obamacare is the fault of republicans. it should have been single payer and kicked the insurance companies and big pharma in the nuts. the Repubs demanded it be the corporate welfare for insurance companies it is today.

Cost of bandwith has also plummeted. It's all geed, pure greed on the ISP part.

but ISP's are not known to be honest.
It needs to state that they cant charge CUSTOMERS for access to things like netflix, because that is where the scumbag ISP's are going next.

How about reining in your lapdogs instead of a half hearted face saving attempt.
Politicians are so transparent it's not funny, a single call from the president to the FCC director will change thins instantly.
You havent seen how badly Solid_StaTe_1 drives...
The Pi has a VGA out? What the hell have I been buying that only has HDMI and composite?

We do this with CEO's. Very few of them are actually very intelligent.

Average age of a car on the road is 11.4 years that means MOST people own a car longer than 10 years.

Sitting at your desk all day is not working.
You are confusing Rich with "ultra rich"
