Seriously, most of todays screens are so big that you can fit 2 pages side-by-side, which is a lot more convenient than one page at a time in portrait mode.
It's not convenient at all for most users who read one website at a time.
I like crypto currencies like Dogecoin because it allows websites and games to trade in fractions of cents, which would be impossible with standard payment methods that charge cents in trading fees.
As an example, here's a game that will allow plays to trade Dogecoin for in-game services and goods: https://www.universeprojects.c...
An ISP cannot block "all uploading" otherwise the Web wouldn't work, email wouldn't work, games wouldn't work, FTP wouldn't work, etc. Your computer has to be able to send requests and data in order to use the Internet.
Still, going from the Atari 2600 straight to the NES is like going from a PC XT straight to a Pentium. The guy skipped too many systems and too many games. He could have limited the list to the best 3~5 games per system.
I have no choice but to leech. My ISP blocked torrent seeding/uploading. That's right, when I get a file from a torrent I give back exactly zero byte every time and it's not my client settings doing that. Maybe their upload capacity matters more than their download, maybe they're doing it to protect themselves and their users from automated lawsuits, who knows. The point is, I have no choice but to leech when I get something from a torrent.
And that's why I disabled P2P in my Battle.net client.
A 'word' is the natural unit of data on the CPU architecture (not the maximum). Thus on a 16 bit computer a WORD is 16 bits, but on a 32 bit computer it's 32 bits.
So a 'word' is a completely useless unit because it keeps changing depending on the CPU.
Even a byte was not necessarily 8 bits before OS/360, it commonly was found as 7 bits, or even four bits.
I've never seen byte (octet) being anything other than 8 bits. And four bits is called a nibble.

You write your comment at the bottom of the page, just like everyone else.
Normal users read a single website at a time just fine on smartphones, tablets, etc.
It's not convenient at all for most users who read one website at a time.
Normal users only read one website at a time. Only programmers, professionals, etc need to access lots of information simultaneously.
I use my monitor rotated in portrait mode and rotated 270 degrees.
My old ViewSonic VP171s has built-in rotation and I've had it for a long time.

Leave and do what? They're the only option. I'm just glad they're not blocking torrents completely.
You mean something like this?

They're the only ISP available and they know it.
Netflix has queues? Can't you just press "play" to stream it?

You're the one who writes hundreds of comments on every thread, you shut up.
I don't have a Gemini, but I do have a genuine Atari 2600, would that work?
Yeah, me too. I blame the Internet.
But not this one.

The Bugs send another meteor our way! But this time we are ready! Planetary defenses are better than ever!
Klendathu, source of the bug meteor attacks, orbits a twin star system whose brutal gravitational forces produce an unlimited supply of meteorites...
To ensure the safety of our solar system, Klendathu must be eliminated !
Would you like to know more ?
Yes.
According to MPAA accounting, the few minutes TPB was offline generated 5.6 billion dollars in sales.
And if we use Verizon accounting for the same numbers, the few minutes TPB was offline generated 560 billion dollars in sales.

There's always Netflix, iTunes, Amazon... /duck
What about KAT?
A few hundreds, maybe. When you reach thousands of units, there's already specialized companies offering their services such as Protomold.
P.S.: I think the use of the word "WORD" makes things confusing in the first place.
