He took a job in another state, and left me.

Was there an option to go with?

I would love to see In & Out make it to ANZ. Holy fuck it would completely change how we eat fast food.

As a former sr. network engineer for a small but profitable service provider in the US, I often found handling MPAA/DMCA abuse frustrating and difficult. We had it semi automated to the point that we would supply WHOIS results per-IP address which would provide an anonymous identity to the end customer. This way we wouldn't have to forward the abuse email to the customer (or read them). Would you be fine if customers directly received the abuse emails but as an ISP you would protect the identity of those customers?

Regarding the strikes system that media companies wish to get implemented by Australia ISPs. Doesn't the ISP industry also benefit by reduced/restricted usage (i.e. more profitable)? I've read that some strike systems effectively degrade the connection and render them unusable (sort of like throttling a connection after exceeding quota).

What are your thoughts on a mandatory product disclosure statement for Internet access which would include service delivery guarantees. There are some ISPs which I will leave unnamed that throttle/shape connectivity/specific traffic types without actually stating they are doing so and vehemently deny that it is happening. From what I can ascertain, this is appears legal. Also the blame is readily shifted to the local supplier for the ISP in the region.

What costs are involved for implementing the policy outlined by media companies? Would it be on equal terms if you offer the media companies to cancel a customer contract and extrapolate the possible return on the customer over the span of 10 years? For example, lets say average tenure of a customer is 5 years. Then for a media company to require an ISP to disconnect the user, the media company should pay in advance for 5 years. Using that money, you could help churn the customer over to another ISP? What I'm saying is, why not make it prohibitively expensive for media companies to go after customers?

Never had goat milk in my life. I prefer whole cow milk, but don't like the processed milk they sell in the US. So I just stopped drinking milk in entirety.

What is goat milk like?
