WTF they are doing so wrong?!
The short version is that they fired all the technicians and replaced them with the party faithful. And then went nuts driving the PDVSA around like a combination of a gift horse and a war horse.
Not useful for me at this moment but I wish you luck.
If Airtel's experiment succeeds I think that this could be replicated across the world and destroy the very character of the internet.
No - that is unlikely in the extreme. The UK has had zero-rated data and text messages for over 5 years and it has had no impact at all.
Could it be the two parties are much the same when it comes to screwing the American people?
Perhaps (shock!) the TPP is actually a good idea and will be beneficial to the people of the USA
Fracking is univerally a good idea. NIMBYs don't like it and people who think "chemical" is a swear word are un-convince-able but for the rest of us it's a positive thing.
It passes in time.
(of course I have no certainty that it was truly a random process)
You do, as it happens. In order to operate, all machines must pass fairness and randomness testing. They are also under a spot-check regime to ensure there are no post-manufacture changes or defects.
It is sad that the average American citizen does not have a sufficient grasp of basic probabilities to even consider putting money in such a machine, because it means that the school system essentially fails at preparing kids for the real world.
You're not playing as an investment/to win, you're playing because it's fun. The probability of winning is a factor that affects the 'fun' element.
And it is sad that governments are encouraging those temples for theft to prosper the way they do. Because it really is theft
No, it is entertainment. It's not at all theft in any way, shape or form. You may not enjoy it, and that's fine. But other people do enjoy it.
The reels are designed to show a lot of "near misses" where you almost win.
That used to be true but is not any longer after the regulator cracked down. It wasn't the reel design (the strips are fixed) but instead the reel position value.
That really impressed me.
I don't get why in our day and age anyone would care about meaningless titles like this.
Because they are not meaningless. They may be to you, and that's fine.But they mean a lot to a lot of people. Your views are not common.
TL;DR: It doesn't work
But it does work. "There have been therapeutic effects shown in clinical trials involving Parkinson's disease,[18] tinnitus, amblyopia, fibromyalgia, and post-stroke motor deficits"

Is there no local loop wholesale in the USA?
No, not in the USA. Unique for a western ISP market AFAIK.
But for someone to make money, another's got to loose.
That's not really putting it well. For someone to buy then another has to sell. If you're selling just as they're buying then you're not losing.
This post really underlines my own experience of trying to find an office space for a startup in London
I didn't find it hard. We got a serviced office near Farringdon tube via a broker. (flexi offices) after looking at about 10 places in the arc from there to Old St. Signed a 1-year lease with a 6-month break, just in case things went south.
Looks great! What are the benefits of using this over something like Unity?
For my industry (gambling) Unity costs $200K/title. Price gouging IMO but it's their business to charge what they like.
even SVN is something I'd like to have a night of good sleep before accepting.
Why's that? SVN may not be fashionable, but it's centralised, has ACLs and a hook system.
It's not secret, it's confidential because it's not finalised. This is perfectly normal for treaty negotiation.
The same company which makes RoundUP tolerant seeds also suing farmers in the US if they use their own seeds not bought from Monsanto
Yeah, that actually never happened and is a persistent urban myth.
Because porn sites don't exploit anyone
The one's you visit may do, but don't tar the whole industry with the same broad brush.
These are private circuits between datacentres, and as such have always been in the "assumed secure" category.
