There does not appear to be a place for you anywhere on the Internet if that is your feelings. You feel no inkling towards the sites you visit, so the odds of you paying a subscription are negligible at best. You will deprive ad-supported content from making revenue off of your visit, because you don't support the model...
There is literally no place for you, because those are pretty much the only options; paying them directly or paying them indirectly. You want neither, so the Internet will eventually become hostile to you.
Not really? They're merely discussing their projections for the next 5 years. They feel they will be sufficiently profitable to repay the loan within 5 years. There is nothing wrong or morally ambiguous with their claim.
I love my cast iron pan... It was bought sometime in the late 50s, early 60s by my grandparents and now I use it in my own cooking. Still in great shape.
No; you've misunderstood the issue people have with bandwidth caps. Bandwidth caps are fine on their own. No one expects all caps to disappear. The problem is companies that are offering unlimited bandwidth and then imposing caps on the service, because you're not actually receiving unlimited bandwidth.
I've logged 10 hours in the game already without issue. I guess with all the hate people had for the game before anyone had even played it, it's not surprising people are trying to drum up controversy that's more than the obvious "I don't like that the game is always online."
Yeah, damn the retards for not being able to play the game they paid for over a decision that was controversial in the first place. You are able to play just fine apparently, so there's no problem.
That uncertainty wasn't exactly Microsoft's fault. Developers were just retarded about how they would launch their own links. Many of them hardcoded launching IE because they were certain it was on the machine, rather than using any mechanism to launch a preferred browser.
Even today we still see this behavior and it's not always small developers who do it, which is shameful.
Seattle should set up phonebook collection sites around the city and encourage its citizens to discard their phonebooks there.
Why of course. Instead of just allowing those who have expressed desire in not wasting massive amounts of paper on some ridiculously outdated index they will never need, we should punish them instead, forcing it on their doorstep and demanding they drive their waste-books to a special collection center instead. It's not like their time is valuable or anything.
Might as well just toss it in the recycling bin.
While we're at it, every home should be forced to receive a 2000 page printout of the top Wikipedia articles on pop-culture. It'd probably be more useful than anything you'd find on the yellow pages by an order of magnitude.
Well, does everyone get an equal vote, from engineers to accountants to janitors?
Pretty much. Valve also encourages people in one area of expertise to try their hands at other areas to diversify their skillsets for everyone's benefit.
Does a major shareholder who is paying everyone's salary get a larger vote than the new hire? Does a minor shareholder get any votes?
What shareholders are you talking about exactly? Valve is self funded. That's the whole reason why this works for them.
If you actually read even a little bit of the handbook that was linked to you, many of your questions would have been answered directly by Valve.
If you're on Windows 7, you could create a new user account that has a number of special group policies that block apps or functions you don't want to have access to while you're working. Obviously you could bypass this by logging into your primary account but if you're determined enough, you'll be able to bypass any suggestions anyone gives you.
Let me get this straight... The Pentagon claims that as a result of the leak, no one is injured or killed, but he still deserved the pain and suffering he had been made to endure these past 3 years all while wondering if he's even going to see a public trial? It was absolutely necessary to detain him for 3 years in harsh conditions over something that not only caused no deaths, but no injuries? All because our government got a little egg on its face as a result of this disclosure?
Do you people even remotely understand the concept of punishment fitting the crime? His possible 20 year prison term might even be sweet relief to the conditions he has faced thus far.

Because ICANN wants a few extra dollars, regardless of the disastrous effects it presents.
Your expectations don't match up with reality as far as the law is concerned.

Where do you live that 20 minutes of entertainment garners 40 minutes of advertisements?

That's not limited to free movies.

What? The headline is not a lie. It says quite clearly what the future intent is: "Tesla Motors To Pay Off Government Loan 5 Years Early"
Not:
"Tesla Motors Pays Off Government Loan 5 Years Early"
or even:
"Tesla Motors Paid Off Government Loan 5 Years Early"

The same way people pirated Diablo 3? Broaden your horizons.
Semicolons are useful; some of us are sad we can't use regular colons more in everyday writing, and they let us pretend otherwise.
You are ridiculously shortsighted.

At least allowing subways would have been nice.

Ding ding ding!
It's a PR move, not a legal one.

Why keep the www when that's basically redundant information as well?

Likely all of them. The most obvious answer is that it's going to reroute all web requests from that subscriber to their six strikes landing page.
