I agree with most of your comment, but I'd like to point out that I have never in my life had to give up my fingerprints to a bank for anything. I am comfortable asserting that it is uncommon anywhere in the US to require fingerprints

Related question: can you use this for Prime video? I've never been able to get it to work, so I have a user agent switcher just so I can do Netflix and Prime w/ the same browser.

Well, I can give you my perspective. I'm lazy when it comes to food: my primary motivator with respect to food is not being hungry. While I like to eat food and definitely have types I prefer over others, I don't like to source th

It depends on your location, but many places in the US have the big 4 + PBS available over the air. You just need an antenna capable of picking up the signal, a tuner capable of decoding it, and some device to record the decoded signal. Go

The only difference between this method and 'traditional' long division is the use of a fixed product of the divisor with each iteration instead of trying to find the largest possible number to subtract. If anything, this just shi

So in your opinion, would replacing long division by iterative subtraction (what I'm calling this - I don't know what it's called) improve the situation? In this case it looks like you still need to understand multiplication

I misunderstood the article I guess. I thought they knew specifically what they were testing, i.e. 'we have altered the airplane this way and we will now do these things .' After the failure, they were able to essentially recon

Is anyone here familiar with how flight testing is actually performed? One thing I wonder about after reading this is why, if they were able to recreate the entire flight profile in a simulator the next day and see the same result, would

I would be worried if I was the reporter. If anything happens to Satoshi, I suspect there are a moderate to high number of people who will make this reporter's life miserable as retribution. I'm thinking of all the bs that Krebs h

At this point it's difficult for me to take seriously any study or article attempting to equate animal products with adverse health effects. There's a religious element to food selection now and it's hard to tell what's

If you're paying $173/mo for that internet and actual 'basic cable' - big 4 + pbs/shopping/church - you are being abused and should cancel immediately. That sounds overpriced given any definition of basic cable

I don't know what the parent's reasoning is, but the problem I have with "let's just tax it!" is that there's probably already taxes being taken from that money somewhere along the line. The next response is us

There was another article on here a week or two ago effectively blasting the http/2.0 wg for doing stupid things. I think it was the "HTTP 308 incompetence expected" article. Now this. I'm beginning to wonder if I want a

Most US municipalities have a franchise agreement for a particular service. The franchisee has exclusive rights to provide a service in the franchised area. So there is often one cable tv provider and one wired telephone provider in an area

I think what I'm seeing is that Netflix doesn't really care about neutrality beyond its ability to enable their business. Which is basically what we as consumers should have assumed from the start.

Note that UBNT claims line rate throughput and provides proof via a commissioned Tolly report (no idea on their legitimacy). The fbsd image yields ~250mbps between two gigabit hosts. I've been eyeing one of these for a while and puttin

Nothing, but you can do it 2.1x faster. Don't feel too bad, I'm paying $32.99 for 1mbps cable. I can do just about everything I want, I just have to plan for it to take longer than I'd like.
