  2. Hoping the data is valid and authenticateable on Driver Privacy Act Introduced In US Senate · · Score: 1

    Here's me hoping that those recorders are accurate!

    If they are i would much rather like them telling the story of a crash than multiple seperate arguments from the people in a crash.

    I'd want them if and only if they are accurate and verifiable!

    But, that's an iffy if...

    Such a simple solution.

    Iceland here...

    100 Mb/s down 100 Mb/s up 240 GB cap, get over that, same cap, yep internet stops :P

    HOWEVER they do not cap or count domestic traffic, so domestic proxies are a godsend!

    This is during a high usage time: http://speedtest.net/result/2502948610.png though i do max 100 Mb/s on torrent all the time, up and down :P

    this.

    I've always hated how slow some camera apps are, when i want to take a picture i want it to take the picture the same microsecond i give the command, not 1-3 seconds later...

    I do admit it IS a vps, so you'd have to use ssh tunnel or set up the vpn daemon yourself but hey, 500 GB/month...

  12. Disable wi-fi encryption... on Ask Slashdot: Dealing With an Advanced Wi-Fi Leech? · · Score: 1

    ... enable dhcp (no default gateway)
    connect the access point to a openvpn server NOT THE INTERNET
    connect the openvpn server to the internet

    [access point]---[openvpn server]---([router]---[modem])---[internet]

    So it goes like this for you:
    you connect to your wi-fi
    you authenticate with a certificate to your openvpn server
    you use internet

    It goes like this for him:
    oooh open wi-fi ... connect
    oooh ip, thanks
    ping google.com ERROR
    hax somebank.com ERROR
    *cry*

    Mumble has very good encryption, if the host uses proper keys. Mumble can use the same encryption keys as websites do.

  15. Host in Iceland... on Suggestions For Music Hosting? · · Score: 0

    ... no hosting services in iceland have ANY upload limits, they do-however have "download" limits, which means data from other countries _TO_ the server is metered, and quite expensive but ANY upload (from the server to the internet) is completely free.

    Just a matter of making a deal, i'd reccomend contacting x.is and 1984.is.

    Additionally, a 100 mbit connection at home in iceland is only like 7k ISK (~60 USD) with a 250 gb download (see above) cap and NO upload cap. (See: http://hringdu.is/page/yfirlit/ljos/ / http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fhringdu.is%2Fpage%2Fyfirlit%2Fljos%2F)

    Here's my speed (50/50 mbit connection, ~4k ISK (~30 USD) a month) http://www.speedtest.net/result/1801028229.png

    p.s. data within iceland is not metered at all, up or down.
    p.p.s. if you do hit the "download" limit, they don't charge you, they slow the connection down to ~4 KB/s so you can't keep downloading but domestic speeds stay the same all the time (so yes i proxy to friends when i go over my cap).
    p.p.p.s. A friend of mine even runs an anime streaming site from one of those connections in iceland at http://fluffy.is/ it runs quite well and has for about a year now on the current connection.

    Enjoy
