Yeah, that is how I read it. The presence of large buffers causes the 'controlling protocols' to go haywire, thus network transfer efficiency hurtles out of the window.
Heh, here in the UK the iPhone was an option from my carrier. I passed on the iphone because of how underwhelming my experience had been with an ipod. Now, a couple of years later, I have a droid. It is the best handset evar.
Heh, and here is some more anecdotal evidence. 1. Van parked in loading bay for ten minutes while the load was being delivered and the return load was being dragged to the van ( ie the van was unmanned for ten minutes ). Result - Vehicle's registered owner hit by hundred and something quid fine. 2. Taxi reverses into my car and stoves in the passenger side doors, then drives away. Result - Cops say the registered owner cannot find out who was driving at the time so they (the cops) can't do anything.
I thought my avoidance of social life was due to everyone being jerks. Now it is something to do with Anaglypta wallpaper? Maybe so, I have painted walls or Artex.
You think that is bad? I heard the other day that many people don't grow their own food! OMG, they totes buy food prepared in huge factories operated by minimum-wage scum! It wouldn't take much effort to infiltrate the production line and put Allah knows what into the food. Will nobody think of the children???!!!!!
We are not 'all terrified of everything now', it is just that a lot of people have got lucrative contracts in security theatre. We *should be* terrified of the slide into a police state.
Actually, terrorists would be well advised to bomb the MPAA, RIAA and similar. It would help their public profile and fund-raising. Maybe even their goals. "Hi, we pledge to bomb the crap out of the MPAA and all the lawyers they hire if you guys vote in a president that withdraws support for Israel"
As STDs have a rate of infection, people engaged in prostitution are more likely to have STDs because they have sex more often than people who are not engaged in prostitution. In my case, about a million per cent more often (assuming ten clients per day).
The whole point is, those protofascists, today, who are stocking up on guns will ( in the unlikely event that words fail to stop them ) need to be opposed by other guns. The protofascists are a minority ( else they could just vote themselves into power ) so EVERYONE needs the means to meet force with force. By all means vote and argue against the fascists, but be prepared for the knock at the door.
Why wouldn't you have to worry about stopping every few minutes? Government will soon put up traffic lights on blimps to halt traffic, also speed limits. You will be stuck behind some old geezer in his autogyro because it will be illegal to overtake.
12:00 No plans for security checks. 12:01 "Hey, Bob, if we have security theatre at general aviation airports, we will be in line for some sweet kickbacks!" 12:02 Plans for security checks formulated.

There was a demo?
The rat-thing leaping up and down at the window scared the crap out of me. And the creepy statue on the stairs.

I remember, but only because you reminded me. Mod parent up.

Why didn't Hotmail back everything up to the cloud?
Er, where can one go?
SPAM and piccalilli sandwiches are also good.

Most digital fidelity? Well, I am a chump for wasting all my money on interconnects when i could have bought those disks. :-(

Of course it is aliens, it is in The Dominion Times http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominion_(Star_Trek)
For a certain value of road, yes. You can drive a car further across unpaved prairie than you can drive a train across the same prairie.
Bingo! Thank you.

Because you would need a rail into every driveway?
True, the same reasoning is why you don't need safety checks, insurance or a licence to operate a motorcycle.
Why wouldn't you have to worry about stopping every few minutes? Government will soon put up traffic lights on blimps to halt traffic, also speed limits. You will be stuck behind some old geezer in his autogyro because it will be illegal to overtake.
Where do you get the quick, silent, cheap light rail systems from? All the ones I have seen are none of those.

Me and Darwin agree that letting these brain dead idiots fly is mathematically good.
True, but is has slowed the rate of abominations to the current rate. The UK is pulling ahead in the abomination stakes since disarmament.
