but it depends on how close you are to a local attraction or work site. i had to drive into manhattan today and parked in the $25 garage because it's the closest one to where i work. sure i can find a cheaper spot but then it's a 10 minute walk for me

and it's not my money. i get pre-tax parking benefits from my employer and pay with a special credit card

and almost every A grade has 10 points of violations for nonsense like certificates not being displayed in the open or something similar. take those away from a C and you get a B which is mostly stuff like food not being kept at a warm or cold enough temperature because in some cases the food being served is not supposed to be overheated or over chilled.

and i bet google gets a text stream of speech to text data of what people are saying
i'll have to test this

it's already being done, only difference is it's not streamed via IP to end users but sent via QAM to watch on tv through your cable box. streaming is a lot more overhead

even then the last mile is not the limiting factor on live events, it's level 3 other other tier 1 providers. since every sport every team plays half their games away from home, there isn't enough bandwidth for everyone to stream every game live cross country

how will a CDN work for live events?
CDN's are just caching data for older shows, not for streaming live events

i can see streaming for shows, but not for live events. not enough bandwidth and it's dumb to stream live sports via TCP/IP when there is a better protocol being used

almost every cable provider has a smartphone app so you can change channels via the phone

for live TV i usually only watch sports and i know which games are on which channels and at what times
my wife will watch some reality shows and she knows when they are on as well
for netflix i have profiles and lists set up
HBO Go i have a list as well
for premium movies i will rent from itunes or vudu. netflix is usually crap for a decent movie so i don't even bother searching for it

i don't know why anyone would sit down and search for a specific show playing live or on a streaming service. anyone who watches a show on TV knows the times that its on or will go to the cable provider's on demand service to watch it if they missed the last showing. or they will have it in their Hulu queue

if he goes to a theology school and gets a phd like most churches require, then yes

Larry flynt used paid models who knew what they were doing, most of the time

revenge porn is posting pics of normal people who didn't give their consent to post private photos for everyone to see and some people to make money off them

yep, the flash is used to cache files

huge difference from the vanilla 5400 drive in my macbook

my HD died in my macbook last year
it was out of warranty so i bought a hybrid drive at best buy. 1TB with 32MB of flash and it made a huge difference in speed.
pure SSD is most likely faster, but not enough for me to shell out all that money for a second here and there

not surprised
best buy owns cinemanow
vudu is owned by wal mart

both are positioned to profit from a move to digital media and a drop in DVD/blu ray sales. amazon instant is like a bastard stepchild in streaming video

because everyone wants their college to provide every service under the sun these days
