Tier One ISPs Dying

xbmodder writes "Two tier one ISPs are down today. At about 23:30PST both Verio and Level 3 starting having problems with routes. According to Level 3 this is a software upgrade gone awry. Is this the end for Level 3?" Many, many reports about this are coming in, and if you're wondering why the stories were rather sparse overnight, it's because it's difficult to post them without internet access. Hope everyone else is back online too.

    NoDOS - No Dupes On Slashdot

    Guess that is one good thing about there being no new stories, they can't dupe what they can't post :/

    What part of the usage of the comma in English grammar do you not understand? The well-regulated militia is in a subordinate clause indicating a reason that the right shall not be infringed. It is neither a restriction nor a full rationale. Furthermore, with said clause as a subordinate clause, the primary clause ("the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed") stands on its own. I hate people who "read" the Constitution and can't fucking parse basic grammatical constructs.
