What an absurd mistake! I just read the article there and it still has another glaring error. They misquoted him. The article quotes him saying "... one small step for a man," when in fact he said "...one small step for man." His original words were grammatically slightly confusing, but MSNBC didn't need to correct them.

In case anyone isn't aware, Verizon Math refers to a situation in 2006 where a Verizon customer service rep quoted the data rate as .002 cents/kB. In fact, it was $0.002/kB, which is two orders of magnitude higher.

I see this all the time in places such as coffee shops: "Extra shot .50 cents."

If they give you any runaround, take'm to small claims court. I did that with T-Mobile after going through round after round of their customer service agents telling me I had no right to cancel despite the fact that the contract clearly says I can.

A few days after I filed the small claims suit, they called me and settled.

My favorite is the conservatives who, upset that the SCOTUS upheld the individual mandate, say they're moving to Canada because America is just too socialist.

I see two networks. 5 are encrypted with WPA2 ,and 5 are encrypted with WEP.

So, I chose 1:1.

That said, AT&T can almost certainly cancel this guy's service, and should do so. You don't want customers who are going to sue you.

If AT&T cancels the service of a customer who is under contract, does AT&T owe that customer an early termination fee?

Mediafire surely doesn't host any pirated software, movies, or music.

Oh, and these were just the first ones I came across, by googling terms like "MS Office site:mediafire.com"

A sales tax on items ordered via the Internet? Fine, then. Time to go back to good ol' fashioned mail-order by catalog.

Right. The 5th amendment doesn't specify that due process is guaranteed only for citizens; it applies to all persons. That's the point of the bill of rights: it outlines inalienable human rights that belong to all humans, citizens or not.

30-year old stereos that are still around are still around because they were expensive and high quality when they were purchased. The cheap crap bought 30 years ago broken down or was upgraded 5 years later and is no longer around, just like cheap crap bought these days is tossed out in a few years.

So 30-year old stereos that are still around to be listened to sound better because they weren't cheap crap to begin with.

When I started using the NY Times app about a year ago, I really enjoyed it. I travel internationally a lot and often don't have a data connection. What the app will do is download all the stories so I can read them even when the phone is offline. A few months ago, the NY Times changed the app to only allow free users to access "Top Stories" and "Most Emailed." That was frustrating, but I continued using the app because I still got some good content, and I could still read it when offline. But a few weeks after that, it started getting buggy. Even stories that were in "Top News" would tell me I had to subscribe to read them. I didn't investigate thoroughly because it's just not worth it. There are plenty of other free news apps out there that do the same thing. I'd rather read the NY Times, but not for $20/month. The other services have content that's almost as good.

If this is true, then why have traffic fatalities trended downward for the last several years while cell phones have shot up dramatically during the same time period?

I work at McMurdo Station. We have pizza every couple of weeks or so. Its quality varies quite a bit. Earlier this summer the sauce was really sweet and that gave the pizza an off flavor. More recently, it's been a lot better--but I certainly wouldn't call it the best pizza I've ever had. So yes, anyone who votes Antarctica is either being a smartass or has never had pizza in the real world.

"I’ve had a lot of jobs in my life: boxer, mascot, astronaut, baby proofer, imitation Krusty, truck driver, hippie, plow driver, food critic, conceptual artist, grease salesman, carny, mayor, grifter, body guard for the mayor, country western manager, garbage commissioner, mountain climber, farmer, inventor, Smithers, Poochie, celebrity assistant, power plant worker, fortune cookie writer, beer baron, Kwik-E-Mart clerk, homophobe, and missionary, but protecting people, that gives me the best feeling of all."
