Jesus Christ most assuredly did NOT preach tolerance.
"I am the way, the truth and the life. No man gets to the father except through me."
“I have no husband,” she replied.
Jesus said to her, “You are right when you say you have no husband. The fact is, you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. What you have just said is quite true.”
He went on: “What comes out of a person is what defiles them. For it is from within, out of a person’s heart, that evil thoughts come—sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly. All these evils come from inside and defile a person.”
See, this is strange. Because I'm a former Adelphia current Time Warner customer and I have no complaints. I even called twice this week to upgrade my speed (first call they agreed to the free 100Mbps upgrade, made notes and told me to get a DOCSIS 3.0 router).
They answered the calls in about 5 minutes and took care of everything very professionally. And now I have great speed and it hasn't been down for the whole year (maybe once or twice at 4am).
You'll be crying when all your produce prices double, since California (one of the only states in the US with a Mediterranean climate) grows about 85% of the nation's produce.
Was I the only one watching that thing about the Cold War during the Olympics on NBC that thought to myself, "Ya know, Nixon's not looking so bad right about now."
MIT was fast to the land grab and ahead of the curve. I don't believe in taking away these addresses. If they want to sell them and make some money, fine. But the addresses are theirs.
I had the opposite experience on Time Warner. They added 2 tiers above me (topping out at the same I was paying for the highest for "new users only"). They actively began throttling me lower than I had been. I called and complained and since I have been a good customer for a long time, they raised me up to the highest tier for the same price. It's advertised at 50 Mbps but I get 113.
No. In California we live in a giant suburb that contains everything from 50 miles north of LA to the Mexican border and about 20-30 miles inland all that way. In that area, the only "cities" in a European sense are LA, maybe Irvine and San Diego. So, no, we don't live in cities. There is no empty space. There are endless blocks of residential neighborhoods for miles in any direction.
Most of them have little or no competition so they are content to make 50Mbps down / 15 up their max offerings
And THIS is exactly why I don't want the merger. Time Warner HAS been doing the upgrades and I currently get 113 for the same price I used to get 15 for. I really don't think Comcast would do this.

I'm paying $55 for 100 Mbps in the US, with a far more spread out infrastructure. Seems fair.
Google Maps shows no such address.

Young earth creationists don't believe that dragon fossils are the work of Satan. Masonic rituals based around pentagrams on the other hand...
All my Netflix and Olympic streaming in HD has been great on TW lately. Now if we can just keep Comcast away from my internet.
You forgot "Global Flood".
Would be nice, but they are in it to make money. And they need a certain number of subscribers to do it.

Well, in that case I'm glad that I have Time Warner at 113 with no dropouts or problems. Thanks for the competition, Google Fiber!

I live in Southern California. If the water pressure were any less, it wouldn't come out of the pipes in some places.
I was there traveling for business when they raised the rates because everyone "saved too much". Boy was everyone angry at that.
But if developers are constantly writing slight variations on the same 500 lines of C, why not encapsulate it?
Was I the only one watching that thing about the Cold War during the Olympics on NBC that thought to myself, "Ya know, Nixon's not looking so bad right about now."
And that was because the "5th estate", the internet press, was largely supportive of him.
We all care. But our system is setup to not care that we care.
Actually, almost everything is. You just didn't notice.

IPv7 was better.
Yeah, fine her $100 and call it a day. I mean, after all, she already watched Monster-in-Law. Hasn't she suffered enough?
I, for one, am glad that DirecTV doesn't roll over and take it.
They will have even stronger lobbying to prevent cities from bringing in another option.
