Without net neutrality isps want content owners to pay twice. First for their own outbound connections, and again to distribute those connections to the people who asked for them.
Right now Netflix was to pay their isp. Comcast wants to charge Netflix money for delivering Netflix content to Comcast customers who want to watch Netflix as oppsoed to Comcast own services
Netflix then has to back charge you the customer who ends up paying three times for the same bandwidth to watch a show on Netflix.
That is net neutrality. And only idiots are against it
That's because mandatory insurance is expensive as the insurance pool sizes are too small. You need pool sizes in the hundreds of thousands to become stable, and lower rates and we never got that. Business that did they would drop never did, as they realized they were losing money by doing so.
That depends. Shit is the waste product of energy production in humans. The internal energy production of robots will be? Batteries or something that doesn't need charging? Batteries are heavy which wastes energy hualing them around.
The problem is routine medical not subsidized is several hundred dollars a visit. Times a wife and two kids and you are talking about thousands annually.
Women have been giving birth since the dawn of mankind. Yet now the average child birth costs $30,000.00
Something where the doctors do little but monitor costs more than a car. Now I would rather have a doctor monitoring the situation as a lot can go wrong quickly, but that's a lot of money for just in case.
Health care expenses are so far out of whack it isn't funny. The whole industry is out of whack and keeps pushing itself farther away.
Not true. I look at both. Energy star it means this appliance uses less than some average for that appliance.
That means if an energy star device is $100 more than an non energy star device you will save money in electricity bills. Of course lower bills for the next 10 years might be nothing to a rich person like yourself but saving money is a good bet in the long haul. Lastly energy star devices also tend to last longer as they waste less electricity. Less wasted electricity is less heat which increases life expectancy.
You can save a lot just by picking energy star vs non energy star on two similar items.
So you will make your kids and grandkids clean up after you. Sounds like a republican plan to me. Why do something yourself when you can make some else do it for you.
Having 51% of the hushing power means that your version of bitcoin transaction are dominate over others. Therefore you can pollute the transactions with fake transactions to your hearts content and no one can stop you. Indeed more you do it the more it will continue.
Personally I am surprised bitcoin hasn't been bot netted into hashing yet
I agree with the overall thought we have always been assholes to those who are different, the trick is technology allows us to be assholes to an even bigger audience.
The advantage is that this is a generational thing. As the older generations age and die younger generations will already have that understanding that being an asshole to someone online is exactly like being an asshole to them in person.
It will still happen as people only change slowly. It takes several generations to push through positive change.
That was true of everyone who didn't move
If you moved and changed isps you quickly learned it was better to have an email address seperate from your isp. That is why you don't lock yourself into isp services
Actually you do hear how Hillary blew the campaign with stupidity from the left. Just read an article on cnn yesterday about it.
However assange released information on Hillary weeks before the election putting him as a firm supporter of trump (who has never paid a contractor in full) and Putin.
Hillary should shut up. She lost to Trump that should be a big enough clue that enough people don't like her that she shouldn't do anything but watch her grandkids.
Businesses get stuck with custom software all the time. The trick is a business is on a 10 year+ hardware refresh cycle while IT is pushing 5 at best.
I started working for a company in 2012. The computer for me to use to start with was a Windows 2000 with a 19" crt. Now my work station was quickly upgraded as a computer refresh was going around so in a couple of weeks I had dual 21" monitors and a modern tower. However the software connected to was windows 2003 terminal server running Great Plains software that hadn't been updated since installation in 2005. (We upgraded at a cost of $100k to new erp software and computers by the end of 2012) but that was only to Windows 2008 server. Those win 2008 and win 2003 servers are still running though they got pushed to the side when we were bought out in 2016. And are being maintained only for historical reasons. As it is cheaper to keep them isolated and running than to pay some to export the databases completely.
And that is how you find 14 year old software running in a business. Because upgrades are expensive and not always worth it
That depends. It takes about 6 months to switch from one president to another economically. Technically we are still in Obama economy. Notice how in the last three months things have stalled, job growth is stalling, sales are down? That's the economy Trump is going to get to claim. Of course when it hits the fan he will blame Obama even though he has already taken credit for it.
So you think it is okay for a company to close a plant in a state where workers have rights and moved to a state where workers can be abused with twice the hours at the same rate of pay?
In 30 years 90% of manufacturing will be done by robots in the USA. this will be good for a few and horrible for many.
with luck we will switch to a just in time custom manufacturing using small businesses to keep people employed. with out that though huge numbers of people will be unemployed and sucking coffers dry.
Except desiel subs have been bypassing nuclear subs with regularity. A modern desiel electric sub is quieter. The only solution is to expand the defense net to twice the longest range of the electric drive and hope you can catch them charging batteries
Actually I bet it was written showed up j. Testing. I completely believe that they missed this type of error,
For the simple fact the would have texted radio and other audio but not third parties saying such things.
Never as five to malice when shear stupidity covers it. Of course it is why I don't use voice controls they have zero ability to identify people.pure audio doesn't work as you need to identify users and audio indentification is problematic even among people let alone visual.
Not really a window airconditioner running on a 15 amp(generally 12 amp) and 120 volts has a max 1200watt draw.
1000w of solar panels is roughly the same size as a typical mid sized window in a home. so 1x2 meters or 3x 6 foot.
5000w can power something like 60-90% of a given home depending on if it is gas or electric heat gas or electric hot water and size of air conditioner. That is why solar panels are popping up around the world on houses. for $20-$30k you can get basically free electricity. at $100 a month ($1200 a year that pays for itself in the life of the panels) faster if your government gives rebates and subsidies.
Bonus the more places that have solar grid tie ins the more stable to overall grid will be.
Not quite. a fingerprint on andriod is like closing all the doors and windows with regular locks. someone can smash a window or pick a lock, but it does take some work.
it is no vault but then again the average person leave their wallet just lying around their home too.
Not even a cool story. How fucking stupid do you have to be to not understand how payroll works.
You get paid weekly that means for 8 months of the year you get 4 paychecks and for 4 months you get a fifth paycheck.
You get paid biweekly that means 24 paychecks 2 a month for 10 months and 3 month in 2 months
That right there is your income swing. Now for budgeting you should only go for 4 weeks of salary and then save the extra weeks. Or at least pay down debts.
The real question is why aren't the kids in school. With the bus ride and school that's a solid 8 hours they should be gone 5 days a week just like when you are in the office
I know plenty of boomers who program too. I also know far far more that I have to show they can use excel for more than just tables but addition, subtraction too
I can't tell you the number of times I have witnessed a baby boomer looking up numbers in excel spreadsheet and then pull out a calculator to modify that number ( calculating cost from a list price etc).
another boomer trait,assuming your life is the rule not the exception. That you and your opinions are the majority not the miniority.
Boomers don't need computer thingy. Back in their day they didn't need no stinkin computers. Of course back in their day you hired twice as many people because people were cheap and equipment expensive. Now equipment is cheap and people are expensive.
I always took it as hyper bold that tv rots the brain. Then I watched the difference between people who watch tv all the time and those who don't watch much at all. The differences are enough that even though I don't have cable I am not planning on getting it or letting kids watch much of it.
See both liberal and conservatives who watch a lot of tv and its political spins va those who don't.
$50,000 a day divided by say 4 flights is $12,500. Divided again by 300 passengers per flight is $42 per passanger per flight. The average ticket costs $300 per passenger per flight and the price of the plane is a tiny part of the puzzle.
( I rounded up to $42 as it is a good number and thought it was hilarious that it came out close to that)

Sirius has her own strange behaviours
If I say "text Devon"
Siri asks me to choose between Devon xxxx and Ana gxxxxxx ( names retracted)
How Devon = Ana is beyond me. It is why I ha EA voice activation off and only use Siri occasionally and even that is generally frustrating.

How long until slashdot fixes the mistake in the summary? it is currently 7:04 am EST
Also how long until manufacturer's realize that by artificially limiting options and driving up price they drive themselves out of business?
