That's a large part of it. But I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around something that was in the summary: it said that 1 in 7 Americans are on stamps. That's an appalling statistic -- 1 in 7 Americans are poor enough that they wouldn't be able to feed themselves without government assistance?
Net neutrality mostly applies to unlimited data plans. The customer has paid the service provider for unlimited bandwidth.
see here is the thing, at&t doesnt have 'unlimited' data plans, all of their 'unlimited' offerings have data caps, "because fuck you thats why" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ilMx7k7mso
This isn't like wired bandwidth where each house can have their own pipe. The mobile bandwidth you use interferes with and reduces the bandwidth available to others. You can make legitimate complaints about the cost of the bandwidth or the amount of backhaul bandwidth, but the total available over-the-air bandwidth is dictated by physics and math, and out of the cellular companies' hands.
ah, so this is why at&t doesnt have caps on landlines..oh wait
Main problem of old design is ~20Mbit max routing speed. This is not enough outside of US, we in civilized places routinely get 120Mbit home connections.
I think they are missing the main reason that router sold so well..
No, they didnt. They are simply at the next stage. Taking old cult classic objects name, slapping it on modern hardware and selling to suckers for a premium. Look at Ford Mustang. In 1964 it sold at 2/3 of Average car price. It got popular because it was CHEAP. Todays Mustang is a modern pimped piece of shit sold to hipsters at a premium.
Speaking of conspiracy theories, whats up with Indian Nuclear scientists? I read somewhere a lot of them died or went missing in mysterious circumstances in recent years.
Its one think to have planes, its other to operate secret squadron out of Area 51 ( 6513th Flight Test Squadron ), Squadron that was supposedly deactivated in 1992, except they still operated in 2006 ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTVgPw7TR_k )
Did you not even read TFS? Electronics weren't being imported, rare-earth magnets were. We're still capable of building our own electronics, we just can't do it as cheaply as the Chinese.
Why do you think they used Chinese magnets? Do you believe those were magic unique magnets that only China can make? or that they were simply cheaper? Now that they got the waiver they will use more cheap Chinese parts.
This ladies and gentlemen is Enemy of the State (1998) moment. Straw that could break camels back. Realization that a tool you used to fight your enemies suddenly has more power than you.
Your the one that points out every storm or high temperature is PROOF of global warming.
No one is seriously doing that.
Except of course for those stuck scientists, entire expedition was to 'study' how much warmer south pole got since last expedition (sweet sweet AGW grants). Oops.
The first thing that came to my mind when I saw the title is, hmm, let's put a digital camera or an SD card full of digital pictures in Antartica for 100 years, and see if we can recover it:)
SD card will lose data after >~20years First SD cards used SLC in big geometries, that could maybe last 60-80years. Nowadays you get garbage quality 20nm TLC that loses data even WHEN YOU READ said data (card needs to periodically rewrite stored data or else it will forget it).

What you are missing is intent. The guy who gets drunk and kills people, never really meant for it to happen.
Yes, I run around with scissors all the time, I didnt mean to pierce someones belly with it!

Diabetes isn't a food stamp issue.
To a large extent type two diabetes an educational issue.
Nah, it all goes back to Dept of Agriculture and high Corn subsidies.

No, its the other way around. New PCs aren't significantly better.
Hey retarded manufacturers, keep pushing "HD" 720p laptops and 500GB mechanical HDD desktops. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the decline.
You heard it in Philip K. Dick's "Second Variety".
This has nothing to do with net neutrality.
yes it does

The NSA's operations abroad are not against the organization charter, and are, therefor, not against the law.
US law _only_
Just like CIA torture camps across Europe dont necessary violate US law.

US already has a MIG29 squadron for deniable wet works operations.

No, the expeditions to the south pole are primarily
_this one_ was all about agw
What do you mean? MIT was on the forefront of prosecution, and it wasnt the first time they did this. Remember Star Simpson?

...global warming is supposed to be melting all this ice.
... said the guy completely clueless to how chaotic systems work.
All of those scientists must be clueless too, seeing as that was the whole point of their expedition.
This is the future of discovering man kind's left overs. A piece of plastic with a small microchip containing unreadable gibberish.
Unlikely. Actually what will doom data retention is constant race of storage providers to give us more for less at a cost of quality. Smaller silicon processes, TLC NAND, SMR ( http://www.hgst.com/science-of-storage/emerging-technologies/shingled-magnetic-recording ) all lead to terrible data persistence.

2) You can prove them wrong
Prove a negative? So far reality is proving them wrong.
