I can't say that I blame any private industry for trying to evade the capricious regulations fomented by fascist economics. Show me a single regulator that has an advanced degree in engineering and who has put it to actual use.
B.S. If conservatives wanted to censor the internet, they had 20+ years to do so. Ask yourself who is doing the censoring on college campuses these days. I'll save you the trouble of not answering the question and inform you that it's not conservatives. The bottom line is this: ICANN as it has been for the past 20+ years isn't broken and doesn't need changing.
Exactly. I have a pair of glove liners with conductive fabric sewn into the finger tips. Works well enough for simple things. Pro tip: Have the phone memorize the print of more than one finger in case you have a bandage on your primary unlock finger.
But Net Neutrality as it currently exists precludes a customer from being able to buy a high-priority pipe. I'm not talking about capacity. I'm talking about prioritizing non-commercial/public-safety traffic in the same way that you get the hell off the road when an ambulance is passing by.
Anyone care to explain why people wanting to stream the 4K version of Plan 9 from Outer Space should be given the same priority as real-time medical imaging data?
Is that copyrighted too? Seriously, though, why did it need to get to the court level? Why didn't the copyright flunkies say, "Sorry, prior art. Tough noogies."?
Damn, man. Now people won't be able to tell if the "Hello, dees ees weendows tiknical support," phone calls are real or a phishing scam. Maybe the UC system people who made this boneheaded move fell for it.
Switching from PowerPC to Intel was a bigger deal. Fortunately, Rosetta made it work. Now, sadly, that's gone so a handful of still useful yet defunct programs are relegated to old machines.
Total equality is a myth. Humans will always be different. What the Founding Fathers meant by "We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal," is that everyone is to be treated equally in the eyes of the law and government. Further, one could make the case that while everyone is created equal, after that, you're responsible to fulfill your potential.
Hollywood is fantasy land. Period. Full stop. Nothing that comes out of there is realistic. We watch because we want to be transported away from what is real, every day, and boring. Not even documentaries tell the whole story. Those are carefully edited to fit the narrative the creator wants to tell and eliminates any inconvenient facts that might tarnish the premise.
It's worse than you think. This is nothing more than a money-laundering scheme. There will inevitably be sticky fingers in the government siphoning off some of the money collected before it gets to the taxi companies. Eventually, the taxi companies will complain that they need more and the government will dutifully increase the tax thus increasing the siphoning.

True but how many people did they sign up? Did that justify hiring 400 people, all of whom have to get a salary and benefits?
"Sensitive"? Seriously? The jokes just write themselves.
But what if the real problem is that nobody really WANTED to sign up? Yeah, yeah, that's probably not the case but it is amusing.

You want a real suggestion? Bring back a 17" model. That'd be great, thanks.

So how would you remove it from an embedded system that doesn't boot from LiveCD?
It's the equivalent of electing a student body president. Nothing more than a popularity contest.
Pity.

I just love it when I have mod points and a global warming story pops up. Sadly, I spent my mod points on the other global warming story today.
Anyone want to buy a 5D Mk II body?
Why not use these as server farms? Solar power would be easy. Microwave comm link. No need to waste energy cooling it.

Oh, and I can sell you insurance for that bridge.
