What an idiotic comment. So I should have to turn off and turn on every device I own twice? And I can't use a remote to turn anything on anymore? And what about the efficiency while I'm using the device?
it's one of those things where once you have it, it's practically impossible to take away, no matter what kinds of problems it creates or doesn't actually solve
That describes pretty much any political or economic system.
I'm not going to start downloading enormous amounts of data to my phone just because I can, however faster LTE means that the data I'm currently downloading will get to me faster, and the network as a whole will have more capacity.
You can't control where the neutrons go since they aren't contained by the magnetic fields the way the plasma is. Some of the neutrons will stay within the reactor and propagate the reaction and others will exit the containment vessel. And my understanding is that the neutrons leaving containment are necessary too, since they contain energy which can be collected and turned into electricity.
You've probably seen signs in stores that say "We reserve the right to refuse service to any one". Guys like Alsop are why those signs exist. Companies can choose not to do business with you every bit as much as you can choose not to do business with them.
The "Binge On" program is considered by many people to be a overall good one for everyone involved, unlike the future you describe. Obviously you think your fears are well-founded but that is still very much a matter of your opinion. Feel free to say "I told you so" when and if your fears come true.

No one needs to replace anything, only new devices need to meet the standard.
Does 1 month really make your point any less valid?
Makes sense, thank you.
I'm pretty sure it goes back to the 90s
Stray radio emissions are wasted electricity, so increased efficiency should indirectly result in less emissions, right?
We believe in nothing, Lebowski. Nothing. And tomorrow we come back and we cut off your chonson.
So the cost of the study is recouped in only 15 months? Sounds like money well spent in that case.

Yeah, why would someone's communication device need to be reachable on a network? It's puzzling.
There's more to nerdom than computers.

Congratulations on saying the dumbest, most shortsighted thing I've read all week.

There's nothing puzzling about it. The interactivity we expect now wasn't possible at the time without Flash.
This is a press event that is being announced. You are not press, so you are not required to care, but plenty of people do.
More efficient means less heat which means smaller and quieter devices, so not necessarily meaningless at home.

Way to completely miss his point.
So what does "original playback only" mean? You can only play it back on the device you recorded it on? What if that hardware gets upgraded?
You realize research isn't free, don't you? If you think fusion is a worthwhile goal, than the 5 billion isn't a waste.

Interesting, thanks for the tip. The AT&T modern is so crap, I've been fantasizing lately about replacing it with something.
You again. Enough with your FUD bullshit. Please show me who's T-Mobile rates have gone up or stfu.
None of what he said is happening, unless you've got some secret knowledge no one else is privy to.
