It will only happen where they face competition. Funny how that works!

News on the spinoff Former Vampire Diaries star lands the lead in Supernatural spinoff | Blastr Sounds interesting, I'll wait and see what the pilot looks like though.

Gox price is down to $134. Campbx and btc-e are around $580. I think rinthe might be right, gox is going bye-bye

Peer Wars: Netflix SuperHD Streaming May Explain Video Traffic Slowdowns for Some Customers | Stop the Cap! So America's largest ISP, maybe purposely slowing down traffic from Netflix unless they get paid. Netflix offers them a free service that would help with bandwidth and major US ISP...

Comcast $avings: Your Bill Isnt Going Down, Nor Will It Increase Less Rapidly | Stop the Cap!

I'd like to see more of this across the nation. If only cable and telcos weren't buying off state and local politicians to stop it. Utah cities score broadband deal that rivals Kansas City and Google Tech News and Analysis

True but as far as I know you can still deposit money there. Just need to be willing to sit on the coins until they sort out their technical issues

Price is down to $250 on mtgox, if you could actually get coins out of there, you could make a killing selling on another exchange. Btc-e and campbx are still in the $600's

Yet community based broadband with fiber to the home does just that. EPB Fiber Optics | Support Chattanooga, TN 1 gig fiber connection for $69.99 a month. What you really mean is that connecting homes with fiber cuts too much into big cables profit and will affect their share prices.

Then municipalities should be free to build their own fiber to the home networks, where they don't have to worry about profit, except the cable and phone companies are buying off politicians to prevent that from happening so they can continue to gouge their customers with inferior service...

Really? I have two in my suburb, ATT or Charter.

LOL, this could turn it around for bitcoin. $2.7 million gone from silk road Drug site Silk Road wiped out by Bitcoin glitch - Feb. 14, 2014

There are more and more exchanges coming up. A big issues was when MTGOX controlled a large part of the exchange market, they still do have a large market share but less than it was last year. The price on MTGOX is $470 currently but over at BTC-E, its $657, at campbx its $670. MTGOX isn't the...

The biggest issue I have with bandwidth caps and throttling is that companies like comcast are stifling competition with them in favor of their own services, which proves that the bandwidth caps and throttling are just bullshit excuses to charge customers more and stop people from using rival...

That's because Verizon is making more profit on the wireless side than FiOS. What we need is for the government to open cable lines for competition like phone lines were and we'll see faster speeds, uncapped bandwidth and cheaper prices for all. All this deal does is screw consumers.

Well smallville went on 10 seasons. I think that would be a good number for supernatural to hit

'Arrow,' 'Vampire Diaries,' 'Originals,' 'Supernatural,' 'Reign' Renewed at CW Renewed for season 10

Funny how in Canada, where ISP's were opened to competition, companies offered no caps at cheaper prices. Competition does that. Not the shit we have now with monopolies and duopolies in most areas. HissyFitWatch: Canadian Telecom Companies Annoyed Consumers Getting The Upper Hand | Stop the...

What the FCC needs to worry about is how Comcast is treating rival streaming business' like netflix. Users are throttled and capped on bandwidth so comcast can protect its video profits.

No it will pass with ease, since the two companies don't compete in the same markets. The only losers will be the consumers

Its possible. I have Charter and I'm fairly happy with them, except the switch to all digital made my clear qam tuners useless

Means they'll pay more for less, have their bandwidth capped and start paying overage fees for exceeding that cap

Yeah the free market, isn't so free when it comes to cable and telephone companies. I wish Congress would force cable companies to open up their lines to competition, like they have in Canada. Then we would see true competition

The people at Charter have to be pissed, they've been trying to buy Time Warner for a while. They even enlisted Comcasts help, saying they would sell cable systems in the east coast to them. It will get approval from the FCC, even though it will fuck the customers.

The US pays more for slower speeds than pretty much the rest of the world. That won't change as long as corporation control the politicians. Look at kansas, the cable industry basically ghost wrote a law that aims the prevent competition, like Google fiber Kansas Cable Industry Ghostwrote New...

I suppose they could regulate exchanges that operate in the US. No way they could do anything about exchanges overseas.

BItcoin regulation coming this year - Feb. 12, 2014 Not sure how they will attempt to regulate something that was designed to be decentralized.

I have a little over $600 at campbx but the price hasn't dropped there at all, like it has on mtgox. I'm guessing since they have suspending ACH's deposits and withdrawals, volume is really light on the site.

I wonder what recourse if any the end user has for this? Typically the ISP is a monopoly or duopoly, so switching isn't really an option. I suppose lawsuit? You can sue anyone for anything.

Bitstamp, another Bitcoin exchange, goes down and halts withdrawals - Feb. 11, 2014 its armageddon!!!!!!

Different writers and showrunners

The network hash rate is way up with the advent of ASIC and it had continued to climb. I got 3, 5 gh/s at the end of July. I was making .5 coins a day. Difficulty is up so much, I am now making 0.0044 coins a day. If I wasn't getting free electricity at work, I would have turned them off a long...

I know I'm bitter I didn't invest more when it was $10 a coin!

Price on campbx is still $739. Not sure of the volume on that exchange since their bank stopped allowing ACH to and from the site. Guess that is the problem with bitcoin becoming so popular, the traditional banks view it as a threat.

So it turns out it was a 3 by 3 piece of insulation that was caught on the blower. It must have been right up against the filter when I changed it and it just got pushed to the other side when I put a new filter in. Took the guy all of two minutes to fix it.

That will make the chromecast that much more useful. Would be great if I could use it as an extender for my media center pc with live tv

The noise is coming from the return duct leading to the filter/fan. It seems to be vibrating quite a bit, so I'm guessing it loose somewhere. The installer called and can come tomorrow morning, so at least I don't have to wait the 10 days for it to be fixed.

I'll take a look it when I get home

Campbx has stopped doing wire transfers and ACH's too and from the site. I guess their bank got spooked with all the recent negative news about bitcoins. I got about $700 sitting there. Probably just wait for them to resolve it, since I don't feel like paying $20 for a USPS money order.

I have called the company that does the warranty work for the builder, its just 10 days to get someone out since it isn't considered an emergency.
