Comment Re:My sudden-acceleration Audi experience (Score 1) 1146

I have a 93 Dodge 2500 pickup truck. I came to a stop light and the truck was trying to push through the brakes. Ended up being the cruse control. It was on, but not enabled. It somehow enabled and was trying to take off. Even though I was holding the brakes, it was still trying to go. I finally realized and turned off the control.

So it's not only foreign/new cars that have this issue.

Thanks for the update.

I don't say that I'm the brightest, and I might believe in God and all that, but I'm pretty sure we can't know what happened so long ago. For all we know, we could be some science experiment to determine life, the universe, and everything.... And 42 just doesn't answer it unless you know the question.

Comment Pre-Paid Wireless (Score 1) 640

It's all about Pre-Paid wireless. They pay for a block of bandwidth, when it's used up, they pay again for another block.

I wrote some software for my WISP that allows customers to add as much as they want. They want 40GB, they buy it.

That way I can pay for the bandwidth and they get the service they want.

"Opinion question? Whether humans (who have been around for less than a million years no matter how loosely you define human) and dinosaurs (which have been dead for over 60 million years"

And obviously you were there to know this as fact.

As if we can be absolutely sure that carbon dating is accurate to that length of time. As if we can be absolutely sure of anything over 2000 years ago. What, do you have a time machine?

Microsoft has been trying to commit suicide for 20 year, and people are just now realizing it. How many company's to they have to kill, how many people do they have to piss off before people start looking elsewhere. A lot!

Comment Give Dem Da Boot (Score -1, Troll) 132

I'm booting customers off all the time for p2p filesharing. I might as well get paid for it. My ISP clearly states that it's not allowed, and clearly states that the network is a shared resource. So I'm not tricking anyone. I even tell them when I set them up that p2p is not allowed and it causes bandwidth issues for everyone else.

Just yesterday some lady downloaded 23GB of stuff. Not sure what it was, but it pretty much knocked out internet for about 30 other people. 1500+ connections open to that one computer. I gave her the boot. Told her good luck finding internet access out here in the middle of nowhere. Dial-up doesn't even work.

I reserve the right to deny access to my network to anyone for any reason. Especially illegal activity. No, downloading music for free is not legal. No downloading movies for free is not legal. Gesh, just get Netflix or something.
