IIUC they are required by law to carry some OTA channels. IMHO they should tell all the OTA that demand a carriage fee to shove it they get paid enough in advertising as it is.
They don't need to change their business plans they just need more ads! And more forced bundling! No a la carte! People won't cancel their cable if it makes their internet cost more than having internet and cable!/s
Yes it is. It seems almost coherent but it doesn't flow nor keep in line with its original subject but it was off to a good start I was going to ask about the 10mbps with dialup return until I read the rest of the comment.
For starters I looked in 2005 such a service did not exist for those speeds also afaik you can't run a 10Mbps stream with only 48kbps upload. Maybe with a custom UDP service but not standard web TCP.
When I was using Anik F2 for internet years ago my average ping was about 570ms The ADSL2+ line at work now averages somewhere around 40ms.
As for demand what kind of caps are going to be on this new service? Is it finally going to be something decent like 1TB?
If It offers a decent speed say 50Mbps with a 1TB or higher cap and would still work even if it's raining here or in new york i'd even switch from the LTE connection I have now.
I'm still hoping that eventually all cellphones will be able to do sattelite communication in an emergency but it doesn't appear that anyone is interested in it.
I would love a software filter to take that high pitched bad mic whine out of old tv shows but I've never found one. It doesn't bother most people because most people can't hear it such as why they didn't fix the mic at the time.
And how exactly are they going to accomplish that? Their blocking afaik is all based on after the fact video they have to check.
Someone saw it being livestreamed that's how it got reported.
As far as the police brutality thing goes the united airlines video was pulled off the front page of reddit at least twice due to a policy prohibiting police brutality videos. IIRC they finally just posted a video of someone walking down the aisle so the story could stay on the front page.
Overreaction? Probably but I personally don't know how many posts are reported in a day they do need to be able to check reported posts in a timely fashion but they don't need to screen all posts.
It's not a job I would want i'm sure 90%+ is just stuff people are reporting to be jerks but occasionally they are going to be shown things no person should ever have to see and that's another 3,000 people that will probably need some counseling eventually.
I look into it occasionally IIRC getting enough power to run the HVAC was the biggest issue.
I think for us a grid tie system would be best a hybrid grid tie that could run when the grid is down would be better but a inverter capable of running both AC units would cost a about $2-4K by itself.
On average we use about 2,300kWh but in the summer it peaks around 3,600kWh
A 10kW inverter could probably handle both ac units but not much else.
So a 25K-30K kit would handle our average use but that doesn't include the install.
Assuming we used 3,600kWh every month (we don't) and power cost's $0.12/kWh (it doesn't) That would be $432/mo savings Assuming we got the system sized to handle the peak load every month instead of average and it only cost $42,000 (it won't installation would cost thousands more.) it would pay itself off in a little over 8 years. Although that's unreasonably optimistic.
I hope they continue the live views after they get all the bugs worked out.
Back when all the networks dropped NASA because they had made it so boring streaming services didn't exist. Today anyone with a decent net connection can watch instead of just whatever the networks deem worthy to show us.
So i'd think they will be able to maintain the same viewership numbers.
Seems like a terrible idea. They deliver packages in the daylight because that's when the most people are available to accept packages instead of leaving them outside where they might disappear.
I'm sure they would prefer night time delivery for the minimal traffic but it would require the implementation of secure drop offs an expense most aren't willing to pay for now.

IME the states are really unlikely to do anything on a large scale even if it is in their benefit.
Is that the full sales tax cost? Here in oklahoma after the county and city taxes are added in its 9.975%

Would this require me to be logged in to google for this to work?

I'm still impressed that it works at all.
IIRC apple and amazon support code based in addition to sms based.

Why? To enforce cable monopolies?
A month?!
I have a total of $170/mo I can dedicate to home internet where does that rank on the desperate scale considering I can get no wired options for that?

It would be nice having so much money to not have to consider if something is practical to do.

I have to run the site scriptless on mobile.
Both because the banner ad takes up half the screen and because it crashes the browser otherwise.
I also only use "Classic Discussion System (D1)" because the new one doesn't work on mobile and D1 also happens to work without javascript.
On desktop uBlock Origin handles it well.
Though I also have to run google scriptless as otherwise it hides the option to view cached pages on mobile.

Anyway did you ever get any panels rigged up?
