    unfortunately, this is also a case where such tactic won't work. All carrier lines in Canada belong to Bell ... u kinda can't run from them no matter who u will be trying to switch to.

    Its all good as long as the stuff they install is not for Home Use Only and they didn't remove that pesky "Activate Me ..." message with a magical file they found on the i-net somewhere without paying a penny

  8. Re:And you are surprised because ... ? on US Ignores Unwelcome WTO IP Rulings · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Good read. And I do agree with you. If you like the law of your country than live there. Also, we are not saying that US is obligated to comply with what WTO rules and change their laws to suit others. HOWEVER, if your government makes such stand then it should also gtfo with their demands towards other countries to comply in favor of US laws and preferences.

  9. Re:And you are surprised because ... ? on US Ignores Unwelcome WTO IP Rulings · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Honestly, I was about to make the same comment. Which part of this article is a news? If it's about the facts and events where US still didn't comply with WTO rulings then it was a good read. However, if the article was supposed to articulate the fact that US doesn't comply unless it is in their favor ... well, it is really an outdated news. Even though, I'm sure I will be modded either Troll or Flaimbait but it is a sad truth. Whenever it comes to harassing other countries in favor of US or, just to be more precise, US companies & corporations, then it is a first priority for them. While if it is otherwise situation nothing will change since US government considers themselves to be kings of the world and that their laws and points of view should prevail over everything and everyone else.

  11. Re:It's not necessarily that easy on Bell Canada Throttles Wholesalers Without Notice · · Score: 1

    Even though it will hurt my wallet but #2 is the only solution I agree with, plus its not a first time I've seen. Indeed, what they need to do is to make few different plans or contracts. One can be this unlimited plan that everyone uses right now. It will be perfect for browsing and e-mail and let those who need just that use it. However, at the same time make a plan where people like I am and lots of others will have to pay for our bandwidth based on how much we download but don't clog up our speeds. Throttle the connections for those unlimited guys so they won't over abuse the system. But until such thing is implemented, the Bell should just shut up and suck it up since they asked for current situation themselves.

  12. Re:However in this case... on Bell Canada Throttles Wholesalers Without Notice · · Score: 1

    U completely misunderstood my analogy =( but to respond to your post with more than that. Yes, my ISP, which is Uniserve or Inter.net (some people may refer to them differently), does not throttle or cap P2P traffic in any shape of form. It is Bell who does it and it's their headache to construct a new Krypton instead of transforming those supermans of yours into normal people.

  13. Re:Throttle Bell Canada! on Bell Canada Throttles Wholesalers Without Notice · · Score: 1

    Well, no matter what the outcome of the article is but I'll tell you what. (I learned this from my reseller ISP and a few Bell field technicians I met) No matter what ISP u are using, in the end of the day all the information is going through the Bell's lines. Bell owns all the fiber lines through Canada so sooner or later its inevitable they will get to u even in Nunavut. The only difference would probably be Rogers since their deliver their content through coaxial cables (-_-)'' but then again, I'm not entirely sure whether they Bell's fiber lines out side of the buildings or not.

    I'm sorry but I don't give a flying damn about how much superman and normal people is out there. I know for a fact that I've signed up for no capping/throttling/no other interference internet and I'm paying for it my bloody money. This is not my headache that your Krypton ran out of space. It is ISPs issue, especially Bell's in this case, to construct a new Krypton for those superman and normal people that don't fit in anymore.

    and that is when you get off your ass, walk to the machine and do "Run as..." ... and if the software requires to be ran as admin 24/7 then your create a new shortcut, start it with a "Ran as..." command, provide all the switches you might require, add a path to program, and then you use it. I know, I know. You will protest that its insane to create shortcut each time you install the program and whatnot. And that is when you make one generic shortcut and just paste onto users machine from a share on a network or from a flash drive.

  23. Re:This is one of those things that I love on Cat Ownership Correlated With Heart Health · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I'd say it is a bit different and not germs or whatnot. I had a cat in the past. Its simply the way you are around with your pet. if you do not behave calm and always hyper and exited and you decided to pat it, the least you will get in return is your hands and arms scratched. Thus, if you want to spend some time hugging your cat without injuries, you will have to be calm (unless you are a masochist of course) And as for heart attacks. Well, those guys who had cats were definitely much calmer bunch and therefor they didn't stress out as much while reducing impact on their heart.
