The reason they do that is because they're always bound to get stupid people who order a Big Mac and come back to complain they wanted a large, not a medium (the default). Asking if you wanted it supersized was more of a marketing thing, but there's always the people who are just so stupid they complain when they order item A and item B and get item B and item A.
They need an ordering system that forgoes the cashier entirely and presents all the options plainly, so it's obviously your fault when you screw up.
Every movie I rent from Netflix is Blu-Ray (when available). Why? Because B&M movie rental stores wanted to charge me $4-5 per release. I get way more than two movies per month by paying $10 for Netflix. I'm on the two out at a time plan with Blu-Ray and with my common rental rate it comes out to like $2.30 a rental.
They can track your IPv4 DHCP allocations just fine. Their DHCP servers are the one that assign the IP to your cable modem's MAC.. the hardcoded, whitelisted MAC address they have in their system to give you service. They know exactly who you are right now.
I highly doubt they're going to relax any rules on listening ports (IP allocation has nothing to do with it) but that does make me wonder if they'll be dynamically allocated like they are now or if the IPs will be statically assigned. (Obviously they'll still use DHCP to distribute, but will the IP change like it does now? etc.)
Sadly enough this is very true. There's no good reason routers (Linksys, Netgear, etc.) shouldn't have at least disabled IPv6 support, but they don't (at least from what I've seen)
What if he and the meteor had opposite magnetic charges? Then it would have repelled away from him. I don't know much into the specifics of the X-men universe but I have to assume Magneto is capable of controlling both poles.

It couldn't be determined whether the equipment from Nokia Siemens Networks is used specifically for deep packet inspection.
So they need to perform deep packet inspection on their deep packet inspectors?
Why doesn't the HBC have a warning like that the first time you launch it, instead of at the installer?
And for God's sake kill those 2-year contract extensions!
You're going to see people crying about the price of unsubsidized phones awful fast.
Weapons of mutilating desecration?
All the people smart enough not to give out our passwords probably weren't applying for the jobs to begin with.

This. The point of assigning a /64 is to prevent the need to NAT.

But I only have OS 10.5, do I have to upgrade to 10.6 to use this IPv6?! Protip: Stupid users are still stupid users.

Do we even have a defense budget as a state? But I think the AC meant the nation's defense budget.
Except for all the dust they'd kick up and get sucked into the engine, lowering it's lifespan.
If you own a store on said gravel road and cater to rich clientel, you're going to move to a paved road when the customers stop coming to you.
We don't live in the basement, it's too cold down there during the winter!
Where? In Detroit? Cause this is a big state and the major cities do not make up for all of it.
Yes, I was.. if that were the case in real life I think we'd have more problems with that closer to home.

"TOPS? Well, okay!"
Everyone knows it's just easier to buy a new one! Wait..
This way we can make a space ship out of cardboardium alloys!
