I don't see how not using their DNS changes anything. I'll bet they are resoliving the selective throttling to IP addresses at some level prior to the actual decision point.
I've long held a theory that my ISP (Cox) is limiting bandwidth selectively by site, and that they make all the benchmark sites wide open, but throttle others, like netflix. It seems they have already added fast.com to their "Do not throttle" list but not added Netflix.
This from their website: "The federal government funds about 85 percent of our work. The rest is funded internally or by foundations."
So I guess the question is, do you trust the federal government and/or foundations to not be largely controlled by or at least primarily motivated to protect the interests of Monsanto et al? Given that we grow so much corn that we literally have to find new ways to use it, http://www.ers.usda.gov/media/...
yet massive federal corn subsidies are still in place, https://farm.ewg.org/progdetai... it really does make you wonder.
My guess is thats exactly what got him on the list. Al Queda explicitly don't want the local populace being educated. As long as their foot soldiers remain ignorant/uneducated, they are MUCH easier to control with illogical ideologies and fairytales.
Call me strange but if buy (i.e. pay money for) a product I expect it to work FOR ME 100%. There should be no extra nickel-and-diming or giving any of my CPU cycles to someone else.
It feels different when something of high value is given for free. You kinda expect some level of give and take somewhere/somehow.
Yeah. Wierdly I got modded down for just pointing out that fact. I wonder if the modder is really that clueless or if Microsoft have paid people to mod down anything against them even if its inescapable logic.
I would have expected the majority would have gone almost anywhere other than Hong Kong. I saw a documentary a while back showing how much perfectly good/working electronics and appliances of their own that the Hong Kong Chinese are ploughing back into landfills since the people there are apparently used to throwing out even expensive stuff just because its over a year or two old. Why on earth would they want our old shit?
>> In 1938, thanks to research by the American Medical Association and the National Safety Council, 0.15 percent became the first commonly-used legal limit for blood alcohol concentration (BAC).
Its already effectively legal in AZ since there are now businesses all over the state whose whole existence is clearly and openly just to sell every/any walk-in a medical marijuana card. The current situation makes no sense on any level. They need to either properly enforce the law or kill off the parasites and make pot 100% legal.
Exactly the same is true with blood-alcohol level. The current.08 level and proposals to drop it to.05 or lower has nothing to do with the 0.15 level proposed by doctors. It is all by politicians seeking votes and pressure groups like MADD.
Assuming the Tesla is the same as many automatic vehicles in that you have to hold a button on the shifter down to shift into park or reverse, it seems to me like it would be pretty damn easy to not fully press the button while doing so, which then gets seen by the car as a double-press.
I think you're being incredibly naive about the actual ability of Nisaan and Google's self-driving cars. Its still a LONG way from being ready for release into the wild and to the public.
You have no idea how endlessly creative the ignorant masses are in coming up with ever more stupid shit that they will inevitably presume the car must be able to automatically cope with.
NIce troll dude. The difference is that background checks discover what crimes people HAVE ALREADY COMITTED. See the differnece? There is no prejudice here. They have already demonstrated their criminality through their own actions. Or are you seriously trying to propose that people shouldn't ever have to take responsibility for their own actions?

Kinda like the same way nuclear stuff is "secure"?

I wonder if you get a steam achievement for collecting multiple pedestrians?
Link please? then I can get actual metrics to backup my theory

>> Microsoft doesn't care what people want, Microsoft cares about what Microsoft wants.
It truly boggles my mind how bluntly obvious about it Microsoft have become, yet STILL people choose to buy their products.
OK so this is just so Batman can remotely control the batcave from his Nexus 7?
...or does anyone else also think that ads have NO PLACE being in the freaking operating system?

>> The GP claimed doctors were NOW proposing raising the limit to .15.
No I really didn't.
I said it was proposed by doctors. I didn't say when.

...except the car broke itself. If it actually did drive into something on its own after he left it then that "feature" is clearly screwed.

Grand Tour (GT). Its an obvious comeback against Top Gear (TG).
For Windows PC games whats wrong with just using whatever API windows has already? (DirectX or whatever...sorry I'm a Linux dev)
UWP just seems like another stupid layer of bloated crap between the game and the hardware.
