  1. Re:$69120 Doesnt Buy a Closet in CA on Paying for Better Math and Science Teachers · · Score: 0

    Most people can't expect to buy a home on one year of their gross salary. Stating that a teacher cannot buy a house in California for a years of wages means nothing. California has a higher cost of living than other places in the US. That's because it's more desirable. If you want a lower cost of living, move away from the coast.

  2. They don't know what they are talking about on IEEE Seeks For Ethernet To 'Go Green' · · Score: 0

    Idle systems would only run at 10Mbps, while email might draw 100Mbs, and scale up to 1000Mbps for large downloads and streaming video.
    100Mbps for email!?!?!

    Let's say an typical e-mail is 10KB, so that's 80Kb.

    100 * 1000 / 80 = 1250 e-mail messages per second. I don't know anyone who can type that fast. Maybe they meant e-mails with video attachments or something like that.

    Even if it's a 5MB e-mail, you could still send 2 per second at 100Mbps.
  3. I just coined a new phrase! on Bill Gates Brags About Vista, Reacts to Apple's Latest Ads · · Score: 0

    From this day forward, comments like this from Bill Gates will be known as billshit.

  4. YouTube on Purdue Streams a Movie At 7.5Gb/sec · · Score: 0

    How many low resolution, high compression youtube videos is this equivalent to?

    I just checked and it's not broken.

  6. Why wait? on Firefox 2 Launch - Interview With Chris Beard · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Download the English-US windows binary here:

    I downloaded it yesterday and posted it on my web space hoping that people will download it here instead of hammering the official FTP before it has propogated to all of the official mirrors.

    The FTP is very busy, so here's a copy of the English-US windows binary that I downloaded.

  8. Idiotic ramblings on Dvorak on Windows Genuine Advantage · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Isn't Dvorak basically just an Internet whore? Why does slashdot link to his articles?

  9. Implications for ReiserFS on Hans Reiser Arrested On Suspicion of Murder · · Score: 2, Funny

    ReiserFS will now be known as the killer app for Linux.
