The problem is your QoS won't know if the box is streaming something you want to watch right now or something being cached. Your best solution is likely unplugging the network or powering down (I don't know if this is possible) wh

Its broken for American Express cards. Amex cards don't do the number as 4 groups of 4, and the security code is on the front. EDIT: I apologize it works! (note I did try it but apparently mis-typed my first four digits ....)

Installing Silverlight is fairly heavyweight, and a lot of people aren't willing to install something like that to watch some random cat video on a random website. Nonsense. Folks have installed Flash forever in order to watch cat vi

I have to call bullshit on that. You're not renting in SF what's equivalent to a $1.5M home (which is roughly what 6k a month in mortgage + taxes + etc will get you) for 3k a month. This excess for investing doesn't exist. I
