Prioritize all my traffic. The only people who will have a problem with this are those who don't know how to prioritize their traffic.
This creates a "The haves VS. the have-nots" situation, which is beneficial to society by creating frustrations, schisms, anger, delays, and potentially loss-of-life as e911 systems aren't prioritized by those who don't know how.
Or, you know, we could keep the Internet EXACTLY as-is, which fosters incredible growth, economy, and anyone has the chance to be the next big thing
There's only 1 reason for this - and it is NOT to alleviate confusion of consumers. Instead, it's to help prevent them from ASKING in the first place.
Why would the customer ask about something they can't see and thus, aren't made aware of? It's pretty close to a bait-and-switch in my opinion, in that the customer thinks they are getting one thing, and are really getting another. I'd wager there "y" series is a little more expensive than it ordinarily would be too./end rant.
Unity seemed alright until this. The very last thing I want in the digital world is Facebook anything. Just replace "Facebook" with "spyware/adware" and you have a much clearer picture of what it actually is.
"we virtually eliminated many types of streaming errors." - except, you know, the issue of the video stopping playback in the middle of watching because it won't buffer the remaining video. It's the *only* issue of playback I've had for years. Recently, youtube started blaming connection problems, but everyone knows that isn't the issue at all.
Anyone else experience errors being fixed? Because I've only had 1 and it isn't fixed.
I'm an AVAST user.
For years, AVG has been well-known to bring good computers to their knees. I specifically remember an entire classroom of computers slowing to a near stand-still because AVG initiated a scan. Presentations had to be halted, etc...
For years afterward, every computer that had AVG was very slow and when switched to AVAST, speed up immensely.
If Avast even hints at becoming slower after this buyout, I'm finding a new antivirus. I have no loyalty.
..you realize that Netflix has no desire to drive away customers, innovation, and money, right? The folks forcing Netflix to do this are known as a group called the MPAA. They're behind a LOT of the completely absurd things you hear about movies and piracy.
Microsoft already tried to turn the PC into a console (At least with the Interface) with Halo 2 for PC. It failed SO hard Microsoft completely abandoned pursuing it further, then blamed PC users for the game sales and terrible interface....now they are trying again? Just bring back clippy already!
How many thousands of people gave their lives in World War 2 so that we could have the freedom to escape the U.S. government and fleet to Germany?
I'm surprised we haven't felt the earthquake from all the bodies rolling in their graves.:(
When the power goes out or you are stuck in the wilderness or there's some other lack of Internet infrastructure, I prefer to not have my critical source of information handicapped because of someone else's greedy hands. If the hardware is there, ENABLE IT. If the hardware is there in other countries DONT REMOVE IT specifically for other countries. I'm looking at you, Samsung Galaxy S3 (Europe version has FM radio, US does not)
I'd still blame Yahoo for allowing this sort of thing. I've been warning people for MONTHS now to 100% stop using their search engine because random search results will redirect to a bogus Microsoft support virus infection message. It's a little difficult to train users to hover over the link and ignore the first 75 characters to see where it is actually pointing to- assuming they have the link details at the bottom.
Yet another case of holding people who have absolutely NOTHING to do with this situation asking to be held responsible for the actions of another. Why don't we hold the person responsible for this... responsible?
And before you say "Why does snapchat even have this filter?". Ever heard of passengers? It's the same reason why locking out the phone while driving doesn't work (n-1) people in a vehicle/boat.
I for one don't want a stupid world where people not responsible for a situation are responsible.
Maybe we'll have a new wave/generation of explorers who push the boundaries and find new and interesting things for people to throw money at, both here on Earth and among other planets.
I've run into dependency hell a few times trying to set up an LTSP server. Usually because it took *forever* for the documentation to be updated and I had to manually track down dependencies.
Also ran into it trying to get a VMware viewer (to connect to pooled VDI's) running a few years ago under Ubuntu. That was super easy though as it only took a couple of hours to track down the one library it needed. (I'm not the most experienced with dependency resolving)
Based on experience, Ubuntu will be released at the last possible moment on April 21st for the last people on Earth (Literally!) to still be in April 21st.
It'll be available for most people on the 22nd I'm sure.
Here's a FAR better video than whatever was linked in the article:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
Someone went into a cave and filmed the fish. What I *liked* about it is it shows it is actually crawling/walking/scaling instead of maybe using its fins as possible spoilers to generate a downward force to keep it on the rock as water flows over it. Maybe someone can post this video instead to the article instead?
Here's the video shown in the article linked:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
Shows pictures and closely-cut videos of nothing walking. Unless I'm missing something?
Full disclosure, I'm very much a creationist/Christian, but how does that factor here? Although I have a bias - in this case, I think it's fair to say my bias is:
"I see nothing in the video supporting the claims they are making - regardless of their bias, my bias, or any bias"
Could someone point out to me what I'm missing?
After watching the video, I fully expect the slashdot community to tear it apart limb-from-limb the same way they would tear apart a video that shows absolutely NO EVIDENCE whatsoever of doing what the article claims.

I can't even decipher what that quote is supposed to mean. Any ideas?
I can't imagine the lawsuit holding water as it was Apple itself that disclosed the information.

Please stop the "Us vs. Them" mentality. Instead, try picking on individuals based on what they support. Ignore party, and you'll be much better off.

I reckon the same could be said for any OS used for copying files.

MAFIAA VS. IPv6 lol. I wonder how badly they'll mess things up - hopefully to the point where folks rise up in revolt against the MAFIAA

That *is* odd... but perhaps it's because they just can't even.

It was delicious. ...sorry, I'm feeling super sarcastic today.
