    Duh. I ment the last last century. It's 21st now. Me fail english that's unpossible!

  2. Re:New? Not really... on Last-Mile Fiber Optic · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Did someone try this around the turn of the century with the works even being paid in company script to be used in company stores?

  3. Hmm... on Last-Mile Fiber Optic · · Score: 0, Troll

    If the Microsoft involvement means MSN has to be my ISP, I'd pass.

  4. Oh Joy on Last-Mile Fiber Optic · · Score: 1

    While it would be cool to have fiber to every house, I hope that free Intranet(cough, taxes) has alot of good porn and mp3's. I doubt that the CO is going to have a few OC12's, so what good all that speed for the next ??? years(besides 1MS ping neighbourhood deathmatches)?

    "those dirty bastards are pretty much incompetent" You may be racist but you will die young. Indian's have a huge influence on new medical technology. Be sure not to take any meds when you're sick as they might have been invented by those dirty bastards, fuckhead.

  6. Bad Idea on Software Tariffs and US IT Outsourcing? · · Score: 4, Insightful
    This is a bad idea. This tax will not prevent others from loosing jobs. Do you want the IRS going checking source code looking for poor english comments as a clue it was written elsewhere but compliled here?

    This tax will do three things:
    1. Software Will Cost More
    2. The Governemt Will Never Give Up This Tax (In 25 years great software may come from many nations, think about the future)
    3. Even Free Software May Be Subject to Tax or Fees
    People need to understand that when Corporations are taxed they never loose money; they just charge us more. The only thing that may work is a tax incentive to companies that use American Software.

    I'm just starting out in this career field but I can see the writing on the wall, alot of programming is going to go the way of manufactring, overseas.

    The bid question is an issue but the connections made between the VP and Haliburton regarding money and stock are lies.

  12. Re:In other news on CDMA vs. GSM in Post-war Iraq · · Score: 1

    He is not on Haliburton's payroll and does not have stock or options. The VP's stocks are in trust that he does not control so he can't be accused as you just did. Know what you're talking about before you post.

  13. Re:CDMA Bias by Issa on CDMA vs. GSM in Post-war Iraq · · Score: 1

    Duh. Of course this is lobbying. Do you know a Senator is even married active lobbist? Yep. Tom and Linda Daschle (see a conflict here?)

    "the US Military has already killed more Iraqi civilians than 9/11 killed Americans" Where did you get the numbers? More Iraqi soliders a strong maybe. More civilians, please, and don't give me any sanctions crap.

  16. Well... on CDMA vs. GSM in Post-war Iraq · · Score: 4, Interesting

    If this is going to be US funded I thinks it's okay to favor US companies even though I personally like/use GSM. If the money will be loaned to Iraq and later recouped via oil sales, etc. then GSM should be used. It's not like Sony-Ericsson is a French company!

  17. Bake 30 Minutes at 350F on Soldering with a Toaster Oven · · Score: 1

    I've never seen a toster overn big enough for a Playstation. I could just see someone putting the whole Playstation/XBOX in the oven which often defaults to 350F. 30 minutes later melted XBOX Pie
