Their roots or their rootkits? Just so we're clear here...

I would think it's the opposite. If they can get you enough peers on AT&T itself, they can solve 2 problems.

1. They don't have to clog their peering agreement pipes. So the bittorrent traffic stays completely local, making it faster because of less latency.

2. The MAFIAA never finds out about their users pirating everything so they save money not playing copyright cop.

Research seems to be indicating that lack of mother's milk (especially the colostrum) is the factor in many children's allergies. While not building up your immune system can make you sickly, that is germ-related, not a lack of protein receptors for certain foods or airborne pollens.

Not to mention that they took everything down except for, as you mentioned, 1. duplicates (because you don't know that a DVD copy is being used illegally, maybe they have permission) and 2. Files that the US Government asked them NOT to take down as part of a criminal investigation.

And Legally Speaking, you are not supposed to seize the assets and destroy the business of a presumed-innocent man. Legally Speaking, he should be able to use those assets to hire a defense team. And by "Legally Speaking", I mean the 4th Amendment.

Bitcoin is basically digital cash.

Would you hand that VPN provider cash? If not, then you probably shouldn't be handing them bitcoins.

I don't understand what pot-smoking in the Netherlands has to do with anything.

Cash doesn't provide charge-back service either. Look, Bitcoin is just like cash again!

So, anything the press tells you is a negative you believe without question. There are many, many positive bitcoin developments, but you choose to read the mainstream media.

This is exactly the case. Bitcoin is cash. Whenever you see a story about a Bitcoin scam, replace the word Bitcoin with "cash".

Easy. The carbs.

Toast = carbs. Milk = carbs. Snack bar = carbs. Yogurt = carbs. For two meals every day, your protein to carbs ratio sucks. Eat 125g of carbs per day or less. Count it out. Then, eat as much protein and vegetables as you like. Meat, eggs, cheese, nuts, carrots, celery, pickles, etc.

Here's what I ate on my way to losing 70 pounds in 9 months:

Breakfast: Bacon, eggs fried in butter, hot or iced tea. Limit myself to one slice of toast, one piece of fruit or a half cup of juice (about 4 ounces), if at all

Lunch: This is where I eat most of my carbs. As a programmer, I must have one Coke (40g carbs) in the middle of the day to function properly. Beyond that I would eat something with only about 30g-40g of carbs.

Dinner. Again, eat about 30-40g of carbs max, depending on what I ate the rest of the day. If I need to snack after dinner, it's meat, eggs, cheese, nuts, carrots, celery, pickles, etc.

The weight dropped off effortlessly, despite me eating as much as I wanted. The problem is that our modern society has shifted food to where our balance is completely off compared to how we were designed.

Google should just buy Frontier and get access to all that fiber. Change out the hardware on the ends and they have instant Google Fiber.

This was my first reaction as well. The correct solution would be to split all home providers into 2 companies, one that ones the lines and one that owns the content. And then open up the lines to any of the other content providers at the same price.

WinForms has worked fine on Linux for a long time. WinForms in Mono. Even better if you declare a folder named "C:" and then declare 5-6 folders named "Program Files", "Program Files (x86)", "Users", "AppData", etc. under that. If you declare the right folder scheme, a large percentage of Windows applications will run perfectly on Mono as is.

The summary conflates "tech jobs" with programming jobs. They aren't the same. The map does nothing to show programming jobs. Only those at "high-tech" companies.

Where are my mod points? This is funny.

Why would anyone use anything else from the guy that created PulseAudio?
