except unlike almost every company out there, netflix refuses to pay for CDN hosting and wants to distribute it's content via the tier 1 networks and then whines there isn't enough bandwidth
CNN, yahoo, amazon, HBO, hulu and others pay commercial CDN's to host their content close to the users
my father in law went to the at&t store with help on his wifi only ipad. he's totally confused by the need for an itunes store account password, wifi password on his home wifi and wifi passwords at other places
at the time the military ones were accurate to a few feet while the consumer ones to several hundred feet. the military GPS units you had to load a special crypto key to give them good accuracy
FIOS only has on average 40% of potential customers in the markets they serve. it's impossible to borrow enough money to build out a last mile network and make a profit after you account for advertising and operational costs
you can parrot this nonsense all you want, but the fact is that every other video provider pays a CDN to get good performance, except netflix who whines about everyone having to pay their bills for them. this is the way it has worked since akamai invented the CDN. before that the baby bells used to charge termination charges for calls ending on their networks
netflix even admitted they did this as a political issue in the FCC filing on the matter which is why no one has sued anyone.
the cops will need a search warrant to enter the house. that takes some evidence and can be contested by the worst legal aid lawyers. this is why they are seizing from banks accounts, faster, easier, no warrant, very little legal oversight and the burden of the cost and time of getting money back is on the person who lost the money
they have to know about the box in the first place. what sets them off in this case is you have people running a small business and depositing thousands of dollars into their bank accounts, but under the $10,000 reporting requirement. and doing it on a regular basis. and if you look at their tax returns they are probably running the business for a small profit.
if you have cash in a safe at home and pay for things in cash, no one will ever know
it's a bad law and i don't think it should exist but most of the examples in the article are people highly likely to be cheating on their taxes by running a cash only business and under reporting their revenues. they should really just get a safe deposit box and keep the cash in there and mostly use cash in their daily life
apple most likely made this to make it easier to manufacture ipads and cut costs. not to make it easy to switch carriers. all the ipads are the same except for the software. being able to dynamically adjust inventory is a money saver and lessens risk of inventory having to be discounted. for apple and the carriers. i bet they have some internal procedure to transfer unsold ipads between carrier stores just in case, because of the software sims
google can advertise 1gbps all they want but the truth is that if you're poor, a 5-10mbps connection is more than enough to get your kids watching educational shows on netflix and youtube. and torrentfreak had an article today about google drive and dropbox and onedrive throttling people on their end because most end points cannot support their user base at 1gbps per user. all the servers are virtualized and over subscribed in the cloud, they aren't built for performance.
i know people on 10mbps connections and their netflix comes in perfect HD because their ISP has an open connect appliance or a direct connection. staging the content close to the user and not streaming it via level 3 will do more for performance than paying for 100mbps or some ridiculous speed just to save 10 minutes on your steam downloads
it's like the PC market in 2001. the P4 is more than fast enough for anyone at the time
sounds like some dummy read a best practices and conserve the resources book and made a column an interger data type instead of big interger. or whatever the corresponding names are for Oracle or non-MSSQL. some auto process or identity column creates the keys and it reached the max amount. and it wasn't set up to use negative numbers either
did you have to take it apart? i'm fairly technical but looking at the instructions to take it apart along with the warnings really scared me out of buying an iMac. i have a 13" late 2011 MBP where the hard drive died and it took me 15 minutes to replace it with a SSD hybrid which made a huge difference
only reason i ask is that it's almost given that your hard drive is going to die after AppleCare ends and it's going to cost a lot of money to have it fixed. if i buy one with an SSD, will it give me more life than a spinning rust drive?

so much resources out there for the taking, no need to come to earth
except CDN's have paid ISP's for years for hosting costs. netflix refuses to pay and wants their CDN hosted for free
there is no legal monopoly, the cost is too high.

not if you have a good accountant who reports losses in the right years and profits small enough to let you live on in others

it means you have to be smarter than a gnat and not take marketing nonsense seriously to get you to buy a product before it's released on hype alone
