You'll get modded down a lot because there seems to be a distinct lack of education of history in schools nowadays, so the whole doom thing is rearing it's ugly head.
Before satellites started measuring for the above issue, I was assured by the popular alarmists that Acid Rain would of seared most everything 30 years later, and killed off all the rivers , streams , lakes, and well...
I want all providers to be locked to the same standard.
If I was dumb enough to have the top package that comcast offers at the top speed - they should be limited by the cap they have on their lowest speed.
They should also be forced to charge the same "internet only" price to their customers that have cable television in addition to the cable TV only charges.
Finally, they should be forced to offer cable tv only at those same prices.
At that point cord cutters won't be forced to subsidize cable tv.
A jumper can make a switch, but isn't a switch, it's a jumper that connects two or more terminals together. If it was a switch, it never would of been called a jumper.
Next you'll be telling a fuse is a switch. You know, because it switches something on.
back into the 1990's there was pretty much no worries about security.
And the motherboards didn't have anything baked into them because of hackers.
There were no switches. Unless you are talking about the jumpers so you should of said jumpers to actually prove what you were talking about. There were no internet based hacks that required jumper use to repair in the 1990's.
Or a power loss causing the ring of floating objects in orbit to plummet. After the idiotic body surfing from one ship to another.
And then there was the giant wrestling thing with the ships core - which Galaxy Quest Firmly slapped down years earlier because the whole notion was stupid.
I even have books that most trekkers don't know about like "Spock Must Die".
After the reboot, having kirk and spock looking longingly at each other and Uhura emerging as a the true power in the ship just makes me hope that trek passes away.
I'm good friends with Mike Brown, owner of Minnie Joe's in Richton Park IL. Look him up on facebook and you'll catch a couple of glimpses of me.
If I go on vacation I'd hand him the keys to my house and ask him to take care of my dog while I was gone.
If someone over the web asked to do the same and her name (and this is an actual name of a person working as a cashier at the local walmart) was Cashamonet I'd not think twice about rejecting her because any parent that did that to a child was most likely on the dole, illiterate, and just plain stupid. How much of a chance is there that she fell far enough from the tree to be trusted?

You get used to it.

Pretty much.

Oceans.
Rage on Popular alarmist!
You forgot about the acid rain and the loss of all monuments - Followed by Ted Danson predicting that all the oceans would be dead DEAD in 20 years...
I still remember watching the news guys out by glaciers using tape measures to spread the fear.
Good times!
I'd like to see the great achievements done by someone who is being critical.
So what has marmot7 done to be able to ask something that (my guess) is incapable of achieving?
The ground is also colder.
citation?
I don't disagree or agree, but would like to know if that's factual.
It's not hard to write your own ftp client. Computers still do what you tell them to do if you rely on your own code instead of third party code.
But yeah, this whole "telemetry" thing needs to legislated against. Specially now that bandwidth caps are gaining teeth.
I sorta missed how this is related to technology?
Can someone point it out for me?
I'm sure the French know when they are being boiled.
your you're
and you're wrong.
this from the nitwit that can't spell you're
Even if I wanted something like this - "Monthly fee" = "Piss Off"

I love when grammar nazis are wrong.
go back to school.
Remember, we need to ban spoons. They make people fat!
Oh, and the MEW board? When was that introduced?
late 1999 and you tell me to fuck off ? Wow, You are a stain on slashdot. The sooner you get mod bombed the better.

Older link but relevant.
if you look at how big the rainforest is in south america and think "10 %" you sorta have to wonder about the modeling to get to that number.

Before the reboot it was awesome.

Blame the parent that set them up for failure.
I hope we all learned not to have flashing lights in secret bunkers with nukes in them.
So this college can't produce skilled tech folks?
And that's why they need H1B's?
As long as they close the analog hole - Riaa will be happy!
