But when you've actually been asked by management whether you've implemented RFC 3514 (the "Evil Bit"), how can the Internet NOT be better?

I have not, and will not, use my cable provider's "on demand" service for anything for which I have to pay ($5 - $10 per selection per 24-hour viewing window). If there were some "bundle" price, al la Netflix, I'd give them $10 for access. Of course, I don't pay the obscene fees for "premium" channels, either. I only have one cable box attached to a screen. I cannot watch all three (four?) at the same time, but I would have to pay an additional monthly fee for each one, even if it is discounted slightly for second, third,
I may miss something, but nothing I've heard of justifies the pricing.
upgrade - and find that the photo viewing application is gone
upgrade - and find that the driver for your printer is gone, there is no new one, and the old one won't work in the new OSx
upgrade - and find your ability to install the software that you like is compromised
BUT, do the "external" users all get a separate IP address, guaranteed NEVER to be linked to your address for a cop stomp (because they have, and will continue to, assault suspected child porn fans)?
Sam Clemens (Mark Twain) did it better:
For example, in Year 1 that useless letter "c" would be dropped to be replased either by "k" or "s", and likewise "x" would no longer be part of the alphabet. The only kase in which "c" would be retained would be the "ch" formation, which will be dealt with later. Year 2 might reform "w" spelling, so that "which" and "one" would take the same konsonant, wile Year 3 might well abolish "y" replasing it with "i" and Iear 4 might fiks the "g/j" anomali wonse and for all. Jenerally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear with Iear 5 doing awai with useless double konsonants, and Iears 6-12 or so modifaiing vowlz and the rimeining voist and unvoist konsonants.

I'm definitely talking about the S (4-door sedan), shown in Fashion Island, Newport Beach, CA. Granted, the Ghibli is tighter than the XJR, but still not as impossible as the Model S.
I don't need to lose weight, but inches from my spine and legs to fit the roadster (spine, at least, to fit the Model S). I managed to stuff myself into an Elise when they were first introduced, but my head was firmly against the roof panel, and the steering wheel was pressed so hard into my thighs that I could not turn it.
I'm an ex-linebacker (6'4", 275 lbs). There are a couple of inches at the waist, but that doesn't bang my shoulder and head against the top of the door frame on the Model S, when I try to get in.
Compared to my '04 Jaguar XJ (or, even the current one that I don't like), or the new Maserati sedan, the Tesla is a sad joke as a car. It is cramped, for one thing (I cannot even get into it); entry and exit is more difficult and less dignified (fun to watch your trophy girl, though, while you hold her door), and there's no good way to make a quick trip from the LA basin to Santa Barbara, Torrey Pines, or Palm Desert with any load of luggage, full A/C, party-level audio, and lights.
Is that rest mass (to which GP SHOULD HAVE referred), or while migrating (with, or without, coconut)?
>Make the CIO, CFO, and CEO cough up a few million per breach and they will be stopped. Close companies that are breached repeatedly, and make the directors reimburse the other stockholders out of their own pockets
Laphroaig (18), and old Ardbeg, or something else?
It's not that those methods do not work, it is that the managers, executives, and directors are insulated from the damage. Make the CIO, CFO, and CEO cough up a few million per breach and they will be stopped. Close companies that are breached repeatedly, and make the directors reimburse the other stockholders out of their own pockets. I once worked at a company where the CEO mandated that he should be able to access confidential information at any location in the company, including offshore locations. I've worked other places where the product programmers had admin privileges on the financial systems.
For gov't breaches, jail those responsible as traiters.

So far, I can still run a "Classic" GNOME, but I do miss OpenLook.
Although this may not be the first time the airflow effects have been measured "in the wild", I cannot remember any previous instance.
There are a lot of things "everybody knows" that have never been verified. It doesn't hurt to run the experiments and perform the verification.
"Everybody knew" that time passed slower on a body moving faster; after all, Einstain had said so. Still, it wasn't until we put sufficiently accurate chronometers on spacecraft that we really knew it, because they did, in fact, show that the spacecraft experienced less time than the ground stations. Although surface installations are "orbiting" at about 1000 MPH (too easy with a 24 hour day and 24000 mile circumference), and are at the 1G level of the Earth's gravity well (also has an effect), the space craft are moving at about 16000 MPH (90 minute orbit at 100 mile AGL) and still at nearly the 1G level of the gravity well. That 15000 MPH difference shows up readily, even after the adjustment for gravity.
So much for "business class" routers/firewalls, and it wasn't on the list.
I've got a couple of old computers around. Time, again, to build my own. Another plus is that local DHCP addrersses will show up in DNS.
With your bare hands?!?
