Wasn't Donna Rice Hughes the chick that was screwing the married Senator Gary Hart? I remember her. She was screwing a married man. Let me guess: she is a Born Again Christian? Christians would be funny if they weren't so harmful and pathetic.
Sorry it isn't convenient for you to have various companies tear up OUR streets so you can get your 1gpbs fiber. If you want it so badly, move. Leave my streets alone.
Sometimes people call a tech and it turns out they haven't plugged in one of their boxes correctly or it got unplugged. I would imagine they would charge you for that.
No I don't know how it works. You pay money for a service call do they can put cable in to provide THEIR service? Are you stupid? Ask for a manager and they will waive the "service charge". No wonder corporations are so rich. Idiots like you pay them to install their infrastructure for them!
Then they better replace the cable. Why would I pay them to replace the cable for THEIR service? If they don't want to replace the cable then I won't buy their service. I am amazed that people would pay for them to put cable in.
Who buys protection plans for a service? If the service doesn't work, Comcast needs to fix it on THEIR dime, or the service gets cancelled. After all, their dime is YOUR dime, because you are paying a monthly fee for the service.
They aren't hiding anything. People talk about https and network security, but they don't seem to realize that the endpoints (Google, Apple, Microsoft, etc) are the ones with the unencrypted access to the data. And they will hand it over to whatever agency requests it, or whoever pays enough for it. No one is bothering breaking https connections to get to your data. They just ask the corporations for it.
You are kidding right? What "regulations" and "background checks" are there in traditional taxis? None. Pure lip service. Anyone who has ridden in a taxi knows you don't get "uniform service". Many of the drivers are just plain nutcases.
If you don't think this will come to YOUR country, you are mistaken. Eventually everyone will need to connect to the Internet using only approved devices and software. You don't think this is possible? It is technically possible to do. It will be done in the name of piracy/terrorism/children/et al.
Why? Government intervention is bad! What right does the the government have to "let" companies do anything? The free market will sort it out! You will just need to compete.
...against brown people and educating children. Seriously, theodp, no one wants your jerb. How about you think about the younger generation for a second? They need a future too.
I bought "The Secret Loves of Geek Girls: Kickstarter Edition" on there. It turns out they don't like guys with ironic beards and fixie bikes after all.

Baloney. There are literally millions of bugs in software systems today and the world doesn't stop spinning.
But the space nutters will just say: "no problem we will take along artificial hearts and program robots to do surgery".
Sounds like a NSA honeypot. It never deletes messages? Also, what is SMTP and NNTP? Sounds like spy stuff. We better get rid of this.
You lock down the modems and edge routers, not the device itself. You just dont let the devices connect if they arent approved.
If you don't think this will come to YOUR country, you are mistaken. Eventually everyone will need to connect to the Internet using only approved devices and software. You don't think this is possible? It is technically possible to do. It will be done in the name of piracy/terrorism/children/et al.
Well if it is on the University of Oregons website it MUST be true! I guess they are the law now. Do you believe everything you read on the internet?

We all know what "maintenance" means. It is a codename for "dont call us".
Gee really nice, asshole. You want my kid to die?

Its OK. Don't worry about me. I'll just give it to my kid and get the new one when it comes out.
So basically my Tesla is now obsolete? Thanks Elon.
....just like the Segway did.
