Your ISP will be purchasing bandwidth from an upstream provider, who will be doing the "provisioned rate', while it seems that your ISP purchases non over-subscribed bandwidth, they're just pushing the problem (limitations) further upstream.
It's still going to be there, just shared amongst and even larger pool of "customers".
Yep, "eventually" could be a very long time, perhaps.... too long?
Never mind the plethora of unintended consequences our efforts to "fix the problems with science" will bring and likely kill us all off in some other way.
I think his point is: Don't treat me like a piece of shit and force an update on me that wastes my time, causes me lost productivity and then refuse to correct the issue.
MS acted in an arrogant manner, his lawsuit is trying to address their respect of care for their users.
Asking MS to fork out for a new laptop, licence, etc is not going to cause them any grief and is pointless.
$600 million on the other hand may make them look and listen.
I don't for a second think he is claiming he suffered $600 million in damages, but he wants the amount to be enough for MS to give a shit.
A boy asked his bitcoin-investing dad for 1 bitcoin for his birthday. Dad: What? $12,250??? $19,350 is a lot of money! What do you need $8,800 for anyway?

Your laptop and phone download data from your underwear?
Man I'm out of date, I ain't got any of this good shit.
Sweden approx 450,000 km2, population approx 10m.
Australia approx 7,700,000 km2, population approx 24m.
Can you see why it may cost more to provide an infrastructure for Australians?
But still... eeewww, DVD.
I'd hate to be your enemy.
That's not true for all ISPs.
Avoid anyone selling "unlimited internet", that'll never work with the CVC costs and the leaches it attracts.
I'm on a $69 for 1TB a month on a 100Mbps plan and always get over 80Mbps.
Shop around and ignore the big guys, they're all shit.
Go to whirlpool and checkout Telecube and then thank me later.
You using a Mac there old chum? I see you're having a classic prime symbol string munging issue there.

Can it be solved with science, absolutely.
Will it? Unlikely.
I just checked and it's up to 405 now.
It's a feature more than a bug.
I totally agree.
I'm at the polar opposite of an Apple fan, but as far as "bug" goes, that's ranks just below zero.
Close the door please!
I'm not fat.
Talk about presumptuous!
Yeah a bit like Google Photos I suppose.
Thanks for the details!
Makes sense.
Please explain why it's not OSX's fault it's not able to speak ASCII?
We're hear to listen.
I say it's over priced if I can get a substitute for a lower price.
In this case I can.
It's over priced.

I know... Audiophile? It doesn't even have a wooden volume knob.
Who are they trying to fool? We're not that stupid!

Facebook is dead already (well it's all down from here).
Facebook became irrelevant as soon as "parents" started using it.
Seems we live in different circles.
I thought that was intentional.
The energy required to damage this retina would have been enough to generate 0.0000001 BTC
Fixed.
Yeah, we all got our knickers in a knot over Y2K and nothing happened.. We should have just ignored all those alarmists!
Really? I can read, comprehend and spot mistakes in:
b = (a != 1) ? !b : 0;
A lot faster and easier than:
begin
if a is not equal 1 then set b equal complement of b else set b equal 0
end
Or are you trying to play on the fact you presented an incarnation of a ternary operator that is not common?
I find it hard to believe that anyone with a passing knowledge of the ternary operator would prefer your verbose version.
