The place I work at has a pair of 500Mbit connections, which would easily allow for 5 or 6 terabytes a day (10 terabytes if you were to saturate both pipes with it, but that's not exactly realistic).
I don't know about the other services, but certainly with netflix, it's also multiple users over multiple devices, simultaneously. No extra charge for a second box.

Ah yes, that searing yet cheerfully ignorant, manipulative and slanted indictment of the establishment that cherry-picked quotations, drew unwarranted conclusions, made outrageous juxtapositions (Soviet marching troops representing opponents of creationism), concealed its agenda, told bald-faced lies to its participants and made a completely baseless association between freedom of speech and freedom to teach religion in a university class that is not about religion.
Really? Because a whole bunch of other people did dendochronotic analysis of over 150,000 trees across the whole of the northern hemisphere, correlated that with ice cores, tundra boreholes, fossil lake shorelines and loesses across the whole world and found no such thing.
> The Earth has been through natural climate change cycles in the past and all the species now on the planet have survived such changes
That's great. And where do all the species or civilisations that didn't survive the changes, and are therefore not now on the planet fit in to your worldview?
Very highly unlikely. The Oort cloud is a mindboggling distance away. You would need to be able to engineer something that can survive a round trip of anywhere between ninety thousand and six million years. Then you need to figure out a way to let someone who may or may not even be recognisably human, let alone able to speak the same language, know when it comes back, so they can collect the data.

So, what you're saying is they didn't consider the impact from an aircraft 8 feet taller, 67 feet wider, 55 feet longer, three hundred thousand pounds heavier and carrying sixty thousand gallons more fuel?

Ahem. May I introduce you to some chitlins? Or a big, steaming bowl of mondongo? Or, perhaps, ask you what you think your sausages are stuffed into?
Algorithm contained bobcat. Would not implement again, although I could only be impressed by how they managed to get it to fold up so small.

Dear Microsoft,
What part of "If you build it, they will come" don't you get?
Lots of love,
The Internet.

The most egregious abuse of the Wadsworth constant.
Seriously. Eleven and a half minutes? The Shuttle used to take less time to get into orbit than this thing sat there doing nothing.
I could point out that as long as you continue to not eat, you are literally starving to death, it just may take a while.
But that would probably be unhelpful.
NASCAR drivers are also a bit on the wet side, according to the V8 supercar tribe, too

Wow, Tacokill was right!
How about accepting a new theory on the structure of a molecule after seeing a spiral staircase while tripping on acid?

One prediction, as requested.

You mean this house, 3.5 kilometres from the beach, at an elevation of 168 metres above sea level?
...Get in the van.

What happened to thousands?

Interestingly, they did find evidence of an incredibly intense solar flare around 774 AD that correlated with an astronomical event recorded in the AngloSaxon Chronicle and a massive volcanic eruption in 1783 AD that caused killing fogs of sulphurous acid across Europe and North America, but, well, that's science for you.

Apart from all those trees, lakes, glaciers, tundra and ice sheets, you mean...
That's already what the Windows 8 SFOD (Sad Face Of Death) looks like.

No fun for you. All the fun is for all those other people who are now going faster than you.

More likely, the parents and grandparents, who are the ones buying the toys, think that the kids will love them.
