I don't even think the monthly bandwidth policy is enforced that strictly. I built a new gaming computer a couple months ago, and needed to redownload my steam library and a few other things. Long story short, I grabbed 1.5 TiB over the cou

from my survey engineering course (which engineering major should you choose?) it's because reverse osmosis is a bitch to do, especially compared to cleaning sewage or building dams. however, this isn't as huge of an issue as the article ma
