  1. When I see that name this is what I think... on Former Senator Chris Dodd Set To Head MPAA · · Score: 1

    Waitress sandwich.

  2. I am glad the FCC is spending my money on this on 68% of US Broadband Connections Aren't Broadband · · Score: 1

    Because defining the definition of words is very important. Obviously the definition of this is going to change as time goes on. I always though that non-POTS dialup was broadband(well other than ISDN).

  3. Re:freedom of expression on Wikipedia Bans Church of Scientology · · Score: 1

    Gee, even Courtney Love can do a better job at making a murder look like suicide.

  4. DEC no more. on Maddog's New Hampshire "Unix" Plate Turns 20 · · Score: 1

    Of course it's a HP office now...

  5. Re:Why doesn't somebody countersue them on RIAA Sues 19-Year-Old Transplant Patient · · Score: 1

    Someone should put up a poster about how much money they get per a cd bought and/or cd downloaded compared to the artist(s). I couldn't find any numbers but I know i've read before and its a pittance. This is rather interesting as well.

  6. Will it actually happen? on Pieces Coming Together For NASA's New Spacecraft · · Score: 5, Informative

    According to this it may not actually happen, in fact it may just be the beginning of the budgetary death spiral for the whole manned space program.

  7. Firmware is distributed with linux distro's? on Proprietary Blobs and the Pursuit of a Free Kernel · · Score: 1

    Okay I might be wrong but I'm fairly sure i'm not. Firmware is not part of a driver, firmware is the option rom and/or code that the micro-controller or what ever other 'brains' the add-on devices have. The driver interacts with this. So if the firmware hasn't been reverse engineered(or at least how it reacts to external input on the bus has been determined) one may have to use closed-source DRIVERS, not firmware. Unless we are flashing the rom(s)on our various hardware firmware has nothing to do with this debate, its the drivers.

  8. Re:Males? on 90% of Gaming Addiction Patients Not Addicted · · Score: 1

    Personally, I play video games mostly because i have nothing better to do. If say in the rare occurrence i have something better like a girl i could spend time with or some other musicians to jam with I'll do that instead.

  9. Not Surprising on Obama Significantly Revises Technology Positions · · Score: 1

    Awwww poor baby is disillusioned now that he's found out all politicians regardless of party are the same.

  10. Re:Can't reach his site on Digitizing Rare Vinyl · · Score: 1

    Nor can I perhaps the RIAA killed it

  11. Re:More ambition than sense on SpaceX Launch Fails To Reach Space · · Score: 1

    The early government run space program had its gair share of explosion too.
