  1. Re:VPN Encryption on Comcast Defends Role As Internet Traffic Cop · · Score: 1

    i doubt they created it on purpose. but it's very possible the connection was blocked for other reasons. heh, just my 0.02 from up here in canada, here i am on shaw cable. fast sweet torrents, no blocking, vpn works, $24.95 a month i am paying. they are about to bring in DCMA style stuff here though, then i run. when is the class action lawsuit against comcast going to start? maybe a mob with flaming torches is more appropriate in this case.

  2. Technics 1200 SL on Is the Game Boy the Toughest Product Ever Made? · · Score: 1

    toughest product ever. Still the number one choice of DJs the world over, and they started making them in the 70s. The original design has stayed the same, with minor changes over the years. Toughest, Product, Ever.

  4. summary is blatantly misrepresentative! on Major Breakthrough in Direct Neural Interface · · Score: 1, Informative

    summary says: neurologists are reporting that they can decypher neurological impulses into speech with an 80% accuracy.

    article says: Although the data is still being analysed, researchers at Boston University believe they can correctly identify the sound Mr Ramsay's brain is imagining some 80% of the time. In the next few weeks, a computer will start the task of translating his thoughts into sounds.

    come on. the article implys that this is already being done, with 80% accuracty. seems to me, they just think it's going to work, and haven't even started trying it yet.

  5. Re:Hypocrisy! on Star Trek XI Plot Details Revealed · · Score: 0

    come on, who-ever modded this troll, clearly doesn't understand sarcasm. i believe the post is intended to make a mockery of people criticizing time travel in a sci-fi series.

    i prefer the bubble bag method for making hash

  7. Highly Misleading Article Title! on Breaking Open Facebook With FOSS · · Score: 1

    Who didn't think that the article title referred to circumventing the security model of facebook, via Open Source?

  8. Re:Street Fighter The Later Years on Street Fighter IV Officially Announced · · Score: 1

    damn, i was going to mod that funny. except.. it wasn't.
