FCC approved, and California, the last chance to block approved so Charter now owns Time Warner Cable.

How is this going to affect TAN and VOD?

That was hilarious. :smile: Yep, many of us know the feeling real well.

“Windows 10-chan, you’re like a stalker.” Indeed.

So again I ask, why happens to TAN? Which schedule will the New Charter follow? Who gets cut off mid series Charter or Time Warner/Bright House?

It’s going to take them a while to sort out their back end processes, three different systems, so I doubt anyone will get cut off on their TAN series. Not anytime soon.

Another merger…maybe other tech companies should ape Amazon and start worrying about trust busting.

It seems that if you connect both wirelessly and wired to the same network, Windows 10 can detect that somehow.

FYI, Microsoft backported some of the spy stuff to Windows 7 as well.

Kinda sad that Microsoft has undermined user trust in Windows Update with shenanigans like that, and has prompted the need for 3rd party tools (eg: Spybot Beacon) to negate/fix the junk they’ve snuck on to the PCs of unsuspecting users.

Now, to be safe, each Windows Update has to be researched prior to install, and ain’t nobody got time for that lol.

What irks me is that Microsoft has no problem backporting all of the gunk no one wants from W10 to W7, but they’ve dug in their heels and insist that DX12 can’t be backported, despite an equivalent API-Vulkan-running just fine on W7.
