I'm about 15 minutes from you, but I'm not aware of any other options than Verizon or Comcast; they're competitors but sometimes it feels like they're one big monopoly. Right now I have DSL w/ verizon, and Comcast for (way overpriced) cableTV. Our cable TV drops out and glitches a lot, and Verizon will never deliver FIOS in my town. I suppose it could be worse though.
Now that I think back, those others might just be resellers or something.
In Cherry Hill, NJ the possibilities are Verizon, Comcast, and some others. I think I am on Verizon, but I'd have to go look at a bill to be sure. Haven't used Netflix in a while, so I have no idea if they run any better on one or another at home.
Grudgingly, reluctantly, and under duress. I feel as though I am the star of a BDSM torture and snuff film every time my federal and state taxes do me.
You got modded down but it's a good general point.
If I'm going somewhere that parking is going to be an issue, I take a bus or a cab down. It's not worth the aggravation and cost of trying to find a spot. I imagine a lot of geeks fall into a similar behaviour.
I wish I had that option. I guess I could make it an option, but I have just to much stuff I have to bring with me when I leave the confines of the office and do my "real job" out with the clients along the eastern seaboard. Another issue is that I drive a pretty big pickup that my Beloved Fiance made just for me, and it holds everything with plenty of spare room too.
On the issue by the submitter, how on earth is this true? how is it that they've been partially crowded out by other 'parking apps' that are much less useful, and why our marketplace for ideas and intellectual properly is still so inefficient. He got his favorite apps advertised on one of the highest traffic sites on the internet all for the cost of his time to type, copy and paste.
At least this makes an attempt to do away with the non-practicing entities that patent things only to sue.
I'm sure it will still be ineffective, or just not pass both houses of Congress.
What about getting the patent office to do their job to begin with? Washington keeps asking for, and getting all this power, then they never get around to doing anything with that power they said they needed.
Then you'd have to listen to endless "damnit Jim, I'm a doctor not an engineer". Maybe if she's kinda hot in a milf-y way, but what if she has a pesky son on board... I suppose its inevitable, eventually.
Oh no, was not thinking that at all. Was more along the lines of an engineer who is also a surgeon, or a geologist who is also a surgeon, etc.
So, the idea is sending all of the doctor and dentist torture tools into space, along with a handy dandy user's manual disguised as a helmet. What about just having a crew member who is a surgeon too?
I've been an A&P for over 35 years and I've seen worse. (by pilots and mechanics)
In Chuck Yeager's biography he talked about an assembly mechanic who was installing a bolt the wrong way, even though his instructions said the right way to do it. Resulted in numerous fighter plane crashes and almost killed Yeager when he was test flying one of the planes to see what was causing the crashes.
If all they are asking is for Google to optimize its network usage, as the article seems to imply, go all out.
If its telling Google to try and control the amount of bandwidth the users decide to use, well, I think they are going to have a little trouble getting that done.
I do not necessarily advocate this, but can't they detect individual users and throttle(?) or filter those control signals? If that takes more resources than just letting Androids bog down the system, I withdraw my question.

And in a short decade or two, we will "discover" the same prisoners who run gangs from cell phones in prison now are on that whitelist too.
So long as they are not ordering pizza an Pepsi with those phones, all should be well.
The fact that nobody has mentioned his name yet shows how young and ignorant Slashdotters are...
By design. He was tossed down the memory hole over a decade ago.
How much molecular acid did they use?

How can a black hole swallow a star if the star's clock slows to a stop as it approaches the event horizon?
Just be thankful that this breakthrough is coming just in the nick of time dilation.

Just like a write off? They know!
Apparently opening one of these things and looking at its innards violates the warranty really bad.

It gets hot in there, and Johnson is always farting.
Yea, but you would think they had a switch on the thing to record when it is open, like on my home security system.
As long as it stays on the view I wanted without switching to something else whenever I touch the trackpad, I am in.
Not if it is backed up somewhere else. Like your Google drive, or something bigger.
Mega dittos! More RAM is never enough.
I can't make heads nor tails of these big purchases any more. Valuing things like this looked easy in college. Maybe I am getting ancient.
First thought this was like Snow Crash, but I RTFA and it is "not quite". Still great tech!
"It also allows us to send real-time warnings to users who are affected by cryptographic vulnerabilities or man-in-the-middle attacks."
so how does that work? you know who's connected where?
When I first added it to Chrome, it kept "going off" whenever I went to my Blogspot.Com blog. It has stopped now.
Biologist botanist sociologist.. all would probably fit pretty well.
There must be someone out there who graduated with a BSEE or BS in geology and later went on to medical school to become a surgeon.
Yep, now there is my point. Besides, every surgeon majored in something undergrad, many majored in something else besides pre-med.
Then you'd have to listen to endless "damnit Jim, I'm a doctor not an engineer". Maybe if she's kinda hot in a milf-y way, but what if she has a pesky son on board... I suppose its inevitable, eventually.

I don't like the assumptions they're making.
Ditto! I could mess up soldering a 0 gauge wire to a car battery terminal, but I should be free to do so and waste my own funds doing it!
Since when does deleting destroy data?
