I know what you are talking about. I had a Gmail account and a Youtube account. Thanks to Google playing around with the settings and at one time requiring people to sign up to G+ I have three Google+ accounts. Of which I wanted and use none. I can't be the only one that ended up with something like that.

Unless Charter buys Time Warner before Comcast gets a second shot.

Depends on what you want to do with it. Older games would work fine with an I3. Newer games could run a bit slower as some of the latest can take advantage of extra cores. Though it seems to fall off rapidly once you get past 3 cores. This may all change once games start utilizing Direct X 12 as it moves more of the workload on to the GPU.

Look up XSplit. The newest version of XSplit Broadcaster natively supports x264 software encoding as well as Intel QuickSync, NVIDIA NVENC, AMD VCE, and AVerMedia H.264 hardware encoding. What I couldn't tell from a quick look around the site is if XSplit Gamecaster also supports the same hardware encoding options as XSplit Broadcaster.

I don't know but the fact that Bing and DuckDuckGo show up would say that Google isn't hiding them since DuckDuckGo is used to avoid giving Google ad revenue and Bing is pure competition. The others you mentioned do show up at the bottom of the page in alternative searches so my guess is Yahoo doesn't appear due to the SEO and not some nefarious scheme by Google.

At what point is that abusive versus just good business. What if Google had two prices where one was for customers that used their android services (store, geo-location, etc.) and the other was for those that didn't want the geo-location service. It makes sense for Google to offer the clients getting everything a lower price as they can make it up with their geo-location service.

Is that considered abusive? If so then most companies would have to be considered abusive.

So the guy could renew the trademark and force Apple to pay him money to take over the trademark? Or just release a product that uses the trademark (even if they only make and try to sell a few copies of said product.) Candied apples with the APPLE trademark, anyone?

Simply sticking to what he knows. He doesn't really understand technology so he isn't in a good position to judge what will succeed. So he stays away from it and stick with things like consumables that he can fully understand and see if it is likely to succeed like Kraft foods.

Oh I'm sure they will roll it out in time to compete with Google Fiber. It will only be in a very limited area and it will come with the 300GB/month limit.

I don't see it as a sudden change since they had been fighting this war for a number of years. Sure, the FCC had come down on the side of the cable companies most of the time but the fact that the issue of network neutrality came and kept coming up year after year shows that this isn't some sort of massive change out of nowhere. It was a clear reaction to the cable companies refusal to work with the FCC as they clearly kept saying 'I'm not going to do what you want and you can't make me.' This is just the FCC stepping and saying that they can make them do what they want.

Given what the courts have said in the past I don't see a challenge to the FCC rules coming from the courts. Congress is another matter.

Passengers have zero rights to know what is going on in the cockpit at any time. The airlines and the FAA or relevant local agencies, on the other hand, do have rights to know what is going in the cockpit. Especially if it impacts air safety. The question that I have not seen answered is will adding video surveillance to the cockpit increase air safety in any noticeable way.

For the most part they weren't even opinions. The last comment that got him into trouble was when they had been filming a segment for a while where Clarkson needed to pick between three (cars, I think) and he choose the 'Eeney Meeney Miney Moe' nursery rhyme only he supposedly used the N word instead of tiger. That was done while they were filming but not in public. So it was bad form and certainly something not to be proud of but not anything like an assault and not something that was clearly racist. More like Clarkson being bored and trying to be funny.
