Many sites can survive if the level of traffic is what was happening before the internet became public. Now "great sites" are bombarded by so much traffic that the person running it can no longer pay for all that bandwidth on their leftover beer money. The only other option is paid access. Is that what you want?
I don't bother to block benign ads. But I do block abusive ads, such as flash animated GIFs, and 1x1 transparent trackers. My method of blocking is by using DNS to substitute my own IP address, which goes to a web server instance that always delivers my own 1x1 transparent image which does not track myself. Of course this does mean that by serving even ONE abusive ad, the entire server gets blocked. Ad serving companies need to check their content. Detecting the animated GIFs should be easy to do by automation.
Kurian Thott, developer of an app called iRounds that helps communication between doctors, thinks they should be released quickly and the market should decide which take off.
I'd rather have medical professionals who are also coders looking at the source code to make such decisions, rather than the ignorant public that is too easily influenced by marketing tactics.
The reason I use virtual terminals is because they are NOT user space. Otherwise xterm and similar programs work well enough. But if this would add a graphical layer that can mix cleanly with the text mode, then it might be interesting (e.g. "cat image.jpg" and get a picture).
They need to get with the plan and have multiple locations (no fewer than 6) with large (24 petabyte minimum) storage at each site. Maybe manage it with OpenStack.
I hope that one day open source figures our what the magic sauce is in Team View is and replicates it in VNC. Until that day arrives when I need to get shit down, I just use TeamView.
One sauce component is having connections made through the firewall and such. Do that through a "connection" layer on top of HTTP to a central server. Switch the connection to TLS encrypted. Then exchange account, identity, and authentication info. At this point the two ends can communicate via the server. In parallel, probe to find other ways to get through the firewall, such as direct TCP connections to the server. With communication to the server, any NAT being used is known (end IP != peer IP seen by server means NAT somewhere). UDP might be usable end to end if set up in a synchronized way. If other means don't work, at least the HTTP method does.
But I still don't trust Team View. I don't know if the end points establish safe end to end security or not. Maybe they are only doing end to server and server to other end security. This is one of the reasons we need software that comes in source code form complete to be compiled (for C, C++, ObjC, Java) or to be run (Lua, Perl, Pike, Python, Ruby). Binary can't be trusted except by those who build it, though partial trust can exist if you see that someone in the public can build it.
But so does the product description. And that's probably why the search sucks. I can't always find what I want, or find out if what is there is what I want. For example, see item number 2 in my list of Things I want to buy. Or maybe no one makes good quality stuff these days.
FiOS is the name of a service that is delivered over fiber. The fiber itself is not the service. FiOS is essentially the same as cable service without the coax. It does have additional bandwidth by using different wavelengths for the data, and using a wide broadband for the QAM TV.
While at least two companies are now offering at least a gigabit bandwidth to their customers over fiber, FiOS simply has no chance of serving that kind of demand (but neither does cable). Fios could maybe serve 10 customers with gigabit service while cable could maybe serve 6 customers with gigabit.
The direction we need to go with is delivering a WHOLE STRAND (plus backups) to each customer. The model that should be used needs to be similar to the "electric competition" model. One company provides the infrastructure and rents out the fibers. Each customer chooses which "light my glass" provider to use (hence, the competition). Then they get whatever services over that fiber that they subscribed to with that company (potentially up to 10 gigabit or more). The provider pays for renting the fiber and their customer pays the provider. Or the customer can rent the fiber directly and connect somewhere else and full fiber capacity.
That defeats the ability to access the info quickly, which is what a web site did. Now you expect someone to install an app? People are already slowing down on that because of all the security issues. Presumably most apps are not an issue. But enough are that people are learning to just not install anything that comes around. The app model is basically dangerous because Android doesn't isolate them very well (neither does iOS for that matter).
However, the information can only be given to the rights holder if a judge rules that the file sharer indeed infringed on copyright, said Dietlind Weinland, spokeswoman of the German Federal Court. The Federal Court is the highest ordinary court in the German judicial system and its decisions can only be overturned by the constitutional court.
But who is "the file sharer"? Do they have to identify who the actual sharer is before proceeding? Are they going to jump to the (not always true) conclusion that the person named on the account is the file sharer? Are there other provisions in the law to hold an account holder that is not the fire sharer accountable? Do the German courts realize that the law is still allowing the sale of a very insecure operating system in Germany?
They are switching OS from DOS to handle the landing to BSD to handle the roving. They were too cheap to buy extra storage to have both at the same time.
If you can't do the maths up through at least a year of linear algebra, and didn't make at least a B, I don't want to hire you for any of our technical jobs.

I don't want a $1.99 app making guesses. That's no better than snake oil.

Yes, of course I am paranoid.
I was ruling out Brazil because "too hot", but Curitiba looks to be a welcoming exception. Thanks for the reference.
Besides, they don't take paypal. ;)
It's a feature.

If enough individuals file separate small claims suits, then THEY will be the ones wanting to consolidate into a class action.

I don't think Trepidity is talking about big evil corporate chains.

There's some new thing coming around called HTML5.
You need to add all of Asia to this list.

The way I'd like to do it is alternate between the summer in Norway and the summer in Chile. I love mountains and seaside.

Dump x264 as badly designed and use a new video compression design that can take advantage of the parallelism.
How about an actual photo instead of some Flash movie?
They should call it by another name. I'll see if I can think up one.
Programmers disagree about risk.
