But it isn't just 20km of wire. Just getting to the Manchester backbone (10 miles away) for my ISP needs 4 hops and has a latency of 20ms (0.02 s). Getting to the web page for Manchester university routes the packets through London, and uses 17 hops and is about 30ms latency.
You might want to consider a new ISP. I can get to www.manchester.ac.uk in 17 hops and im in san francisco (158 ms of latency).
Imagine that you run a coffee shop. You want your customers to use the space in front of the shop while in the shop, and you don't want someone who works across the street to hog the space for 8 hours straight. So to keep the spaces open for customers, you restrict parking time to how long it takes to buy and consume coffee and a sandwich.
Except that you can still hog that space for 8 hours, it's just going to cost you.
Instead of parking meters you put green zones in if the true intended effect is space turn over and not "revenue" generation.
Actually yes there was a big push for COTS software in government a whiel ago. The idea was that it would reduce costs, but it was a short term cost reduction with a long term significant cost increase. The problem is that those doing procurement often are not responsible for long term negative effects, because they will be long gone.
In general chiropractors are full of shit. However this is clearly an instance of something where there is ample research to backup the claim that using a laptop display is going to hurt your back.
In fact workers comp claims are often filed because of poorly setup desks with monitors that are either too high or too low.
Many programs simply do not benefit from multiple cores. This technology is basically a trade off between partially disabling one core and increasing the frequency of the other core.
The problem is that the fallback mechanism apparently takes upwards of a minute to kick in. Clearly the solution is to attempt to connect via both ipv4 and ipv6 simultaneously and then go with which ever connection succeeds first and drop the other one.
That's just ridiculous. SSD drives demanded an upgrade to SATA 6.0 Gb/s because they were saturating the SATA 3.0 Gb/s link. Last I checked 3 is bigger than 1.

Epic fail... the Ukraine is basically the world center of Internet crime and it's because nobody ever gets caught there.
It's a pretty safe bet that OnStar is vulnerable to some kind of attack.

Not every place with a parking meter has a maximum parking time...

Uploading and downloading are essentially equivalent under copyright law.
Distribution (uploading) is a criminal offense which carries a significantly stiffer punishment.
IIRC their defense was that fingerprints on the stainless steal of a gun is ugly. Aesthetics of course.
Because the bad guys are usually organized crime with an international presence?
Because criminal organizations are like the hydra. You take out the leader and you just end up with two criminal organizations run by new heads.
The only way to win is to take out the metaphorical legs.

Correct me if I'm wrong. That sounds like it's cauterization, but of a significantly smaller amount of flesh.
Personally I would not demonstrate that on myself. Each to his own...
lol oops
what about those with impaired mental capacities?
Already solved, we gave them jobs at ICANN!
Actually the vast majority of P2P applications use the DNS system to bootstrap into the network.
DNS is absolutely vital to the functioning of the Internet as it exists today.
Looks like latin characters too me....
Just for anybody who is interested and lazy... javascript:alert(unescape("http://www.bankofam%u212ercia.com"))
It doesn't look exactly like 'e', but it's certainly close enough to fool some people.

It's important to note that LUKS does not provide deniability.
