Quite apropos. Dealing with Comcast CS is very much like playing an RPG with a wicked DM. If only one could muster a vorpal blade to dispatch them altogether.
It is no less applicable than "Hi-Fi" or "Solid State". "Broadband" is just another term for wide bandwidth. It implicitly encompasses higher data rates as a consequence of using more of the spectrum. Coding techniques have almost reached the Shannon limit so the only way to improve data rates is with more bandwidth. This terminology stems from radio engineering which, incidentally, is precisely what the FCC oversees.
A more useful application of pedantry would be to wage a war against all the dullards who call the internet "the web" even if they aren't using HTTP.
Sometimes xhost is still necessary when dealing with old hardware. I have a logic analyzer that remote displays using X11R5. It doesn't play nice unless the server has been opened up with xhost.
Pesticide application is "reduced" because the GMO corn is pumping out it's own pesticide. Not directly dangerous to humans but the systemic threat it represents to beneficial insects is real.
The purpose of a free press is to promote a knowledgeable society. If the agenda is to stomp out the stupidity of the masses and their dangerous influence over lawmakers then yes, I welcome these agenda-toting muckrakers of truth with open arms.
The original variant of the optical IBM/Lenovo scrollpoints are really nice and have a separate third button above the XY scroll saddle. Bonus points for having a two axis scroller that is hard to slip off when pressing left or right and being symmetric for ambidextrous use. The later models fail by putting the third button on the side.
Reminds me of how VGA could readily handle higher resolutions than modern displays, component video even better, but everything had to be digital so they could sneak in their DRM.
Does anyone have a contract with WhatsApp to provide guaranteed services? No. They provide a free service and have the right to do anything they want with it.
Locking out apps that don't meet their requirements is a perfectly reasonable thing to do. Blocking users outright is heavy-handed but none of them paid a dime to use the software and have no basis for a lawsuit.
Basic OpSec would insist that you keep the incriminating stuff locked in a separate container that you only open when needed and with a low inactivity timeout to demount it when you forget.
I'm waiting for them to fix the plague of transcendental numbers and redefine pi to be the proper, all-American value of 3.2. If we're lucky they might fix that pesky e too.
There's no such thing as "police powers" beyond the power to issue citations for civil violations which is a delegated authority from the executive. Otherwise, every citizen has equal right to uphold the law to enforce misdemeanors and felonies including pressing charges and making arrests.
The problem with an internal billing system is that a "cost center" department will have it's billing rate capped as an incentive to reduce costs. That is the easiest lever the MBAs have to make themselves look good. When the belt tightening begins the cap will be set below the level of sustainability. Then the department sheds workers and the brilliant MBAs get their bonus.
The BASIC he was talking about was the line numbered, unstructured distant ancestor of VB. VB.NET is mostly just a different flavor of C#. The quote doesn't apply any more.
That still exposes headers. Sort of important if you're a political dissident who will be taken to task for even communicating with dangerous foreigners.
They expect technology to make oil obsolete in 100 years or so.
Which makes you wonder why they're doing fuck all to develop a non-oil-based economy. Eventually they're not going to be able to buy off their unemployed young men or divert them all to a lifetime of study in madrassas.
I use it all the time. Scan through Hacker News and right click open all the interesting headlines and comment sections then browse the fully rendered pages at my leisure. This is much more practical with a hierarchical vertical strip.
Some are GPS enabled now which allows cross-correlation with the speedometer and internal accelerometer readings to detect fraud. Granted, you could cage the dongle and let them think it couldn't get a GPS fix from its position under the dash. A spoofer would also need it's own accelerometer to generate believable data under acceleration and braking.

Verizon is not building out FIOS. They're running as fast as possible away from anything hard connections to sites that aren't cell towers.

Dyeing is less effective with polymer bills which are inherently easier to clean. The UK will transition to them soon.

No they teach them a lesson by revoking their franchise agreement and allowing competitors free access to poles in the city.

Notably, this was accomplished before the negative feedback amplifier was invented in 1927.
It would be interesting if the survey was presented in other developed nations.

could be opening themselves up to legal action.

So not only could he not secure his black site, he couldn't even secure the files on his own laptop.
It makes you wonder how he ever got it running in the first place.

The deletion ninjas on Wikipedia won't even let nim have it's own article. So D has a leg up on at least one "next-gen" language.

Except of course that searching files has been completely fucked up since Vista.
