Television is multicast/one way traffic. The infrastructure is completely different.
In 20 years when a podunk ISP can easily have 40/100GB backbones for low thousands, and IPv6 multicast is here to allow for IPTV and some clever ways to cache and stream videos, these arguments for data caps will be much less believable.
It does highlight the low barrier to entry for digital currencies, and shows how much of a "free market" it can be. Additionally, I do think that this shit will, at least in the short term, water down the "cryptocurrency" brand.
Your comment is antagonistic and arrogant, though, in that it assumes all users of a C.C. are gullible, rather than curious, hopeful, supportive, etc.
The insight about incorporating is interesting, and given the facts of the situation, might not be a bad idea.
To your other point: >The number one thing you should not expect about doing science, at any level, is that it will be cheap, quick or lean. When it comes to science those words mean the same thing as "violating environmental and safety law" or simply doing a piss-poor job.
THIS is what's unfortunate. The point of the article (IMO) was to lament the state of things that law-abiding citizens aren't able to get chemicals once thought reasonable to acquire.
"Jolla CEO Tomi Pienimäki": Hmm. Jolla must be a corporation. Who the fuck knows where it's from? Startups generate names from a version of scrabble with added "ly" and "io" pieces.

You talk about encryption for all this, but neglect trust. You complain about not being able to trust the root CA's, but who can you trust? When I connect to
Ridesharing is a well established mode of transport for the middleclass in Africa and Southeast Asia who can't afford to ride single passenger taxis but want something more comfortable than the local equivalent of a bus.
Because putting ourselves in those scenarios can change the observable reactions our body has to situations.
I am of the "create manned missions" because as so many people have said, it DOES inspire people (if we could believe in the US government not to cancel the program 25% of the way through every time), and because it IS a vital step in humanity's survival in the long term.
>His concern, ostensibly, is that someone might be petty enough not to see his movie simply because he spent years lobbying for laws that treated certain people as less than human.
Really? Less than human? Because you get taxed differently and don't have visitation rights at a hospital?
It's an insult to victims of real humanitarian crises like genocide and slavery to talk about this relative first world problem in such terms.
I'd be interested in hearing more about how you and your like-minded friends think the world would work without borders defining the legal codes to which a person is expected to adhere at any time.
If anything, I've pondered that internet routing should be changed to strongly prefer staying within a particular country's borders if the source and destination are in the same jurisdiction. Of course, if one wants to route through the world, tor/proxys are easy as pie, but the bulk of normal, direct traffic could be routed this way.
>Why worry about what, when you can easily control how often. Limit each participant to some amount.
How do you regulate that? By making a closed hardware platform?
I bet you'd find most amateur radio ops are content with the current ruleset.
Let me also say that when the power goes out for a few weeks, HAM is the only comms still operating. It's a great skill for learning RF and electronics basics while doing something useful.
You sure about that? You're probably right, given your handle, but I thought the logic behind barring 'encrypted' radio was to be able to discern garble and static from users.
The several times, I've passed the Microsoft store in San Antonio (in a wealthy part of town), it was pretty filled up with shoppers, and had knowledgeable employees.
He didn't say the government has no right to privacy or no need for secrecy. It's the LEVEL of secrecy combined with unconstitutional actions that has Americans rightfully enraged at their leadership.
Call data records are not public record. It is revealing, private data held by a private company, and the US government is blanket requesting it from carriers to do analysis and to have it "just in case". It's unlawful and it's occurring without any oversight, contrary to what Obama and his cronies are saying.
I don't get offended by many things, but I don't think it's humor, and that's why I don't like it. I know too many people who say of convicted felons "I hope he drops the soap a lot" and whatnot. Lots of people see prison rape as a valid part of one's punishment, and it's wrong.

Yes, don't allow mutants to have nuclear bombs.
Oh, you mean don't let Pizza Hut buy up all our infrastructure.
So should every technical training course for firewalls, networking, VMWare, etc. be regulated similarly? Those are $5k+ a week.

Does that mean you get to examine them too?
People who don't actually work in cybersecurity.

I was hoping that if I ever expatriate, France would have been a good choice.

Go ahead, prove yourself correct.
So the US has become a Third World nation.

Modern tomatoes suck.
We've also moved to *gasp* dynamic content and styles and actions that require JS to load.
They couldn't do their absolute worst case scenario if they wanted to! ...for about another 5 years until storage drives jump an order of magnitude.
