we're still talking about this guy because he fought to release the collective human knowledge which was locked away by by academic bureaucracy and held for ransom to keep a system alive which rewarded those with money and stifled human innovation through exclusivity of said knowledge. His story will go down in the history books, not as a thief who broke into restricted areas and released restricted content, but as the crusader for freedom of human knowledge that he was.
youtube has known speeedbumps in place thanks to your ISP.
I get 50/10 cable Internet and sometimes It feels slow to me.I can support 5 vudu HDX streams at once and have done 3 before with no buffering.
10Mbps is unbearably slow for modern Internet. I am a consumer. I buy and rent movies from Vudu, M-GO, AmazonVOD, netflix, youtube. I play games from Steam and Origin. It's worth the price to get 50Mbps if it's available. Especially when you have 3 streaming TVs, 4 computers, and 4 phones/tablets.
There's a change coming on the Internet. Pageviews are a useless metric. Clicks are done for.
True value lays in the userbase. User capital is the new currency. And not selling to advertisers. The single carefully formed tweet, pin, or *sigh* FB wall post can be worth thousands to the right company. What kind of users follow you? Who wants a crack at those users.
I haven't seen an intrusive ad in almost a decade. They are dead. They are a complete waste of money. Banners are done.
The stuff I block with adblock shouldn't be seen for a reason. I block it for a reason. It's already the third tier Internet. It's one step above Nigerian prince email.
perhaps, but this is typical of AMD and ATI products ranging all the way back to my experiences with Athlons and the ATI Rage 128 graphics card.
Their hardware just isn't as stable as Intel or Nvidia. And that's my experience with 4 different AMD systems over the years. When you put an intel computer on the same power supply, stability just happens.
One person could have designed, programmed, and coded the whole site, including back end in about six months, If that person were skilled.
Instead, HHS and CMS paid multi-million dollar contracts to 3 foreign corporations, who had a year and still couldn't do it.
The site was doomed by salespeople and politicians.
QSSI, who got the contract for the EIDM in 2012, evidently got it working for medicare and medicaid, but this site wasn't even coded or tested right. CGI Federal executive went to school with Michelle Obama. Serco, well we all know what happened to serco.

I think you must be new around here.

I don't get paid to push buttons. I get paid to know which button to push.
unlike google, this doesn't really work very well.
or you could play the masterpiece, Portal 2. And actually get smarter while you play. So says Stanford et al. http://www.fastcompany.com/303...
why would anyone NOT want to report it?
Magic Leap is not VR. It's a motion sensor.
You're right about that. However, Data scientist is a sexy job to the MBAs right now.
no doubt they showed him some incriminating drone footage of himself.
Though think about it, if you're in public, you're already being recorded. They should need a warrant to drone over your back yard though.
The real fact is, AT&T has abandoned its u-verse expansion. They simply aren't investing anymore money in it aside from advertising.
They offer 18Mbps max a-sync speeds only in areas where the service already exists. They have no further plans to expand service areas.

The definition of that has changed already, pardon the pun.
It now requires roughly 9Mbps to get high quality video.
Vudu HDX is my benchmark.
He was implying the OP is a nuclear shill. Which, if you read his comment history, seems likely.
More like, you've found Earth's only sarlacc pit.
This isn't star trek. I agree paper removes the obstacle to design.
They will use recovery procedures down to the platter level.

you jest, but once my 3 year old son purchased $28 of nothing from nexon through google play.
The apps are designed to make it really easy for both non-readers and readers alike to buy stuff with flashy graphics.
We shouldn't have to use it.

bwahahaha. If you were a serious miner, you'd have an ASIC rig.
GPU miners don't cover the cost of their electrical bills.

Honestly, who gives a shit. They were designed to be lost.
