Stop giving money to mega companies and tailor your government "cheese" giveaway to companies who will build to new areas. The last stimulus scam that they tried contained so many impossible conditions that no small/start-up company could comply with them. The main deal breaker being giving the government first lien. Foolish to think any company wouldn't have a loan or two out there with a bank that isn't going to give up their lien. So either the people who draft those programs are fools or they are in the back pockets of the lobbyist who care not at all beyond what some money bags is paying them.
You have to consider that some believe the things they are saying. That is free speech not trolling. The fact that the person is raging and calling them a troll doesn't make them one.
Shill much? I had three machines. One running Ubuntu, one Centos and the last one FreeBSD. The FreeBSD box was scripted to update ports regularly. The Ubuntu machine also runs updates from cron. The Centos wasn't set to update automatically but updated without issue. I went ahead and made it update on a weekly schedule while I was at it. In short free does not mean maintenance free. Microsoft has had its share of bugs some of which remain unpatched to this day.
Ill just leave this here. Feel free to ignore it if it doesn't match your version of reality. NASA can't hire enough engineers. Why? NASA faces looming engineer shortage. The ones they have are leaving. Why? The Flight of Gifted Engineers From NASA Bureaucracy is great when they are getting the job done. Not so much when they slow and often halt progress. They are inefficient with the current management style they use. Bureaucracy run amok is my take on it. Poor decision making and bureaucratic overhead preventing things from being done cheaper. Wasteful money pits where they pour cash and get nothing in return. NASA Has Spent $20 Billion On Canceled Projects
Were they caught with child porn? If so its a pity they will get off on a technicality rather than facing a long prison due to the fact that the person who discovered it was exceeding his authority. I do see something wrong with that.
Now they have the guide printed on the box but I can remember when i was a kid they didn't. It was a crap shoot what you got. I always, no matter what shape they were got the nasty cherry filled coconut crap.
foolish and wasteful. You don't believe that FBI fairy tale about getting data off a drive even if its been wiped do you? http://how-to.wikia.com/wiki/How_to_wipe_a_hard_drive_clean_in_Linux
Your so wrong i don't know where to begin. We have exactly one solution for bandwidth. We are not multihomed since there is one single pipe in this area. The local cache solution uses as much bandwidth as our users. Your ignorance of circumstance is obvious and rather pathetic. There is no money from the fed for last mile internet down here. We have to match our capabilities with resources. Its the crap streaming model thats at fault not our bandwidth. We are planning to buy more as soon as we can but it won't be enough. You know nothing about how oversold we are. I don't want a local cache at our headend I want it at the customer level, where it belongs. You don't hear us gripping about youtube its caches to devices not Netflix its crap on crap with them ad infintum.
Other customers are demanding other bits and they don't wan't to pay more to feed others hunger for back to back streams of game of thrones. Its a poorly designed system and its not the isp's at fault its the netflix don't understand how to do things efficiently. And that box that locally caches netflix, it uses almost as much bandwidth as our customers use. Thats straight from netflix. Its crap on top of crap with them.
They are dreaming. We are thinking about throttling them here right now. Why should we let all those other sites suffer due to one service using nearly 75% of our bandwidth. Let them fix their busted streaming model to include some caching ability. I mean really how hard would it be to include some kind of encrypted cache that would store media for a time. They could even sell a DVR service and make more money. The whole premise is a joke considering how its went for them so far with other cable companies.
They always seem to focus on the wrong things. Content providers are so worried that someone might watch something they payed for once, more than once. Must you buy a DVD to do this. People accept that they can watch a dvd more than once but don't require the same for streaming services. Here is a unit that is supposed to cache content and it gets it wrong. Netflix and others account for 2/3 of our bandwidth at times. They(netflix) do offer some type of appliance that will locally cache things at our headend but it still uses a major amount of bandwidth itself. Streaming is inefficient. This is obvious and correctable but no one seems to be looking in that direction. I hate the cloud concept since it doesn't accurately represent the topology of the internet. However to continue its reign on the masses imagination I give you this addtion. Steaming companies don't utilize the reservoirs owned by the people they are raining on to mitigate their impact on the environment. In the old days that would trigger government regulation. Today?

Blacksmiths try to stop the horseless carriage. See how that turned out for them.

It didn't have a overbearing paralyzing bureaucracy driving the price up.
I know not of this celebgate. Perhaps I know it by a different name?
Were they caught with child porn? If so its a pity they will get off on a technicality rather than facing a long prison due to the fact that the person who discovered it was exceeding his authority. I do see something wrong with that.
That some jerk without sufficient authority will allow these assholes to walk.
Make them come to work instead of working at home.

Do you see some of the things that happened on 4chan in a different light?
When I was 14 my internet was a tymnet node in grenada, ms.

I can't even type that without laughing.
They used to make it impossible to disconnect from their service.
