this bit of information about Casio F-91W shows, if you vote conservative morons into power, they draft policies only conservative morons could justify.
just like how the conservative party of canada VOWED last week to implement an internet filtering system. SO much anti-public move could only be vowed on by a conservative party. they are at the level of not being able to discern right from wrong since early 2000s.
Once you let it go, it devolves - see, private corporations/copyright trolls are already at the point of making laws out of their own ass, circumventing even the usual custom of buying them through the puppet parliaments via lobbying corporations..
"hosting of any infringing material meant that the entire domain name was forfeit" says the guys. they also claimed hardware, software, everything. next, they may be claiming that engaging in hosting infringing material should cost your car.
i wonder why such a move is necessary, since everything is alright and under control. despite it being already officially declared to be a level 7 (chernobyl) disaster by japanese government itself.
"Why do we have to have these freedoms-infringing procedures ?"
"Why, to protect our national security"
Apple MUST have information on you which not only infringes on your freedoms, but also perils your personal information, because, they will 'provide better products' with it. And, without your knowledge or your approval !!!
When asked to define what 'national security' or 'better products' are, they fell flat on their face. Because they are just empty excuse words.
The era of outright robber barondom. When proceeding towards intellectual feudalism, it was inevitable that at some point stronger longs started standing on bridges and tried to toll whomever they can overpower. Now, a big company, in order to keep its profits, is suing others, to make them pay, which will in turn reflect on the on the customer as higher prices. and lo - there is compe..... no really, just where is the competition in this ?
rackspace.com, softlayer.com, hetzner.de -> most of the web is housed on big providers like these. personal, organization, and small businesses are alike. these providers' main business is renting racks and servers, which are then used by hosts to rent to end customers.
i dont know where does this 'how much of the net relies on amazon became clear' bullshit comes from. are there any statistics to show for it ? or, are people unaware of what's going on outside their little world window of expertise, so that they think that amazon cloud, for some reason, has become the 'backbone' of internet ?
really. where are the statistics ? all i see, some random guy gives away some pdf by hosting it through amazon's cloud, and then proceeds to claim that 'net' became too reliant on, amazon...
yes, instead we should believe right wing politicians and paid industry lobbyists. instead of an anti nuclear physicist, we should believe, what exactly, the OTHER side ?
what kind of moron are you ? with your logic, one has to be on your side to be believed.
yes. 'anti-s' need to come up with something "better'' than what has been officially recognized by japanese government as equivalent of chernobyl, ie a level 7 nuclear incident a week and more ago. which is already released into atmosphere, and even detected by epa in groundwater in michigan, leading to an advisory telling people not to drink water from wells.
See, non-conservative parties also perpetrate shit. but, they do not take their filth perpetrating and public-enemyness to a level of 'vowing' for something that is so anti-people.
but you cant go wrong with conservative. they will even vow to take away your freedoms and do not flinch in the process. if you challenge them, they will say they are doing the right thing.
"Sony tried to point out that the user agreed to the PS3 EULA, BUT, the consumer board noted that such agreements can't go around consumer laws."
and thats the way how it is, in any decent society based on laws.
however in usa, law, for some reason, can be undone by contracts. and then rabid corporations which get used to this in usa, try to perpetuate the same filth in other countries too, saying that it is 'standard practice' and whatnot.
really. america is producing so much filth in the form of rabid corporations that it suffices for entire world. you people really need to put down the law there. that is, if you can.
see, this 'cleaning up the mess' thing. this is not something that is local. its like the bp issue, but much much bigger. bp thing will kill a lot of ecosystems in a few decades, but, this fukujima radiation release wont take decades to kill.
yees yess moron. dont pay much attention to a guy that is one of the foremost physicists of the planet. instead, pay attention to the industry shills being paid to deceive you. yes. thats the way smart people would do.
yes, immediately, as in before dmca is even filed. because this is how it happens with godaddy. you dont even get a notice after your site is taken down. however, other providers, even the ones that actually host clusters of servers as opposed to godaddy's half assed shared hosting accounts, give 24 hours time for takedown after any complaint, to YOU. ie, softlayer.
yes, godaddy is a traded company, and it is registering millions of dollars in loss, and has lawyers. but, they are not good for defending their clients.
the document you linked, pertains to top level registrars. they do not pertain to resellers, which constitute almost all of what you call 'reliable other sources'. a reseller's domains are records that are just kept in the top level registrar's record that it is a reseller for. true, if the reseller you are buying from goes bust, your tld records wont suffer anything - but, when your domain's expiration date comes, and you are unable to pay the fee through your reseller, BUT, more importantly, if the reseller is unable to fill their account with credits/pay for your domain to the wholesaler, that domain will NATURALLY expire. this is not a problem of icann, and it is not covered by the agreement you are linking - a reseller of a top level registrar is just an account entry in that reseller's major account system.
you wont lose your domain through deletion of tld records. it will just expire and get backordered by squatters.
almost all of the 'other reliable providers' you are going to use are RESELLERS already. either wild west domains (godaddy) OR, enom, or 2-3 other big wholesalers.
if you go buy from such an independent private reseller, when they flop, your domain goes poof. enomcentral was taken over by enom, because they had too many domains, and the two reached agreements.
enomcentral will not flop. its one of the top 4 domain registrars. and with 'top' i mean registrars who sells to everyone, resellers and end customers.

with your car analogy - ford.com doesnt sell you ford escorts, unless you are a car dealer and buy 100 ford escorts in a shot. however, fordcentral.com does sell you 1 ford escort, at 3x the price. and, your service will never expire or degrade.
But the rationale you gave for the high prices (over 3 times as high as the competition) was that they are somehow a consequence of keeping alive a formerly failed reseller for the benefit of its customers.
It's certainly not for my benefit, or that of any other new potential customer. I see no rational reason why I should pay those insane prices, even if it is possible to construct an explanation for why they are so high.
you seem to be unable to follow chronological information.
enomcentral was enom reseller. i flopped. it was too big. to save customers, enom took it over. enomcentral is now, therefore, enom's RETAIL outlet now, in practice.
enom is the biggest wholesale reseller that ONLY sells to resellers (hosts, big and small, domain registrars and more). you CANT buy directly from enom, as a DIRECT customer. you have to become a reseller by paying big bucks. BUT, if you buy from enomcentral com, you will have technically bought from enom, since enomcentral is enom's.
Why not just use name.com, gkg.net, or any of scores of other long-standing, reliable options?
because, most of your 'long standing, reliable options' will in actuality be big resellers of wildwestdomains (godaddy's reselling outlet), or enom, or similar big registrars.
enomcentral is no more a failed reseller. it belongs to enom. enom is the biggest wholesale registrar that majority of web hosts and domain resellers use.
yes. enomcentral was an enom reseller which floundered. it had a lot of clients. so, not to leave them in the cold, enom stepped in and took it over. but, since they couldnt undersell their resellers of wholesale business, they had put the prices in retail enomcentral quite high.
enomcentral.com is best alternative. it is enom.com 's retail outlet. enom normally only sells to wholesalers.
for hosting, you can go with any other provider. dreamhost, lunarpages etc are not bad. at least, not as whore as godaddy. they are smaller hosts compared to them, so their service is still acceptable.
