There is no such thing as a cable *modem* amplifier. This is baseband. Accept it. Reducing S/N is the only thing you can do. Why not just unplug the 32 TV sets you already have connected to your home cable service? Or get the cable company to remove the odd staple or two from the cable drop over your roof that might interfere with you favorite dub-dub site?
Either way is is probably just a ground loop attenutaing signal. It is their problem. But you seem to simpy to deal with it. Think DEMARC here. You have a PC, you subscribe to a service, it fails.
Grow balls. Call them. Tell them to FIX MY F'IN' CABLE INTERNET...NOW!
That's what you pay them for. It is likely simple physics and it not your concern.
As a postscript, this is just the sort of question that I would ask peronally of Roald Hoffman, of Cornell, if it were not so early.
Point your gopher to :

If he could be contacted, this would not only lend a hair of credibility to the discussion but might mark the first time a Chemistry Nobel Prize winner contributed to www.slashdot.org.
Good Luck!
WTF? As a college chemistry professor, I would say that neither toy is good. Let us build with some sort of tetrahedral shape and then we should debate the usefulness.
Buy an Oxford molecular model kit and go to town.
And Linux is a hobbyist's OS. That is not necessarily a bad thing. So was almost every other microcomputer OS until about 7 years ago. Is BeOS dead, too, by the way? That would be sad.
It is, however, Layer 4 switching and it has been around for a while by now. Both Cisco and Juniper have their hands quite deep into this pie as well! Let us not forget the number two and three WAN hardware vendors, either. An easier way to write this article would have been to link to any one or two of a hundred old articles on this topic. (Oh, wait, that is what you did.)
I believe that terabyte would be the prefix for that order of magnitude. 10^3=kilo-; 10^6=mega-; 10^9=giga-; 10^12=tera-; 10^15=peta-; 10^18=exa-. 1000 Gbyte=1000*10^9 byte=1 Tbyte. Pendantic enough for you? And, by the way, the prefix "exa-" has been around a while and is a perfectly acceptable SI unit of measurement.
Tried something similar...

..in tribes. Got pretty good at it, too. Just set the FOV (field of vision) to 270 (or more). Very odd. Hard to move around without falling off of things. When others tried to play on my PC they usually got a sort of motion sickness. Very cool.
What? If you think an optical path with tranceivers is somehow better or quicker than a metal conductor, then you, sir, are high on crack. I mean bad crack. And you neither have business running a website that presents these issues nor making offhand remarks about such. I'll tell you what: just copy and paste the entire contents of this topic thread into an email and send it to anyone who will read it at the IEEE. Then listen for the laughter...
is valid. The use of the so-called "10 net" address range is actually preferred over the class C private addresses for a few reasons, namely ease of classless interdomain routing, supernetting, and whatnot.
I am sure that Americans not glued to CNN likely will be interested in keeping fresh with the hottest Star Wars trivia web site. Or the latest download of some cleverly-written Linux drivers for an old ISA modem. And (besides donning chemical warefare protective clothing) just what every G.I. needs to know while not dodging bullets: how to recompile his kernel!
In fact, the following two should seem both fundamental and self-evident: 1. unity; 2. zero.
The natural consequence of these are, in a rigorous sense, the notions of order and truth. From these we may then construct sets and operations. Chief among operations seems to be union. From this we arrive at the additive inverse. No mathematics exists beyond the space defined in the commonplace transform (1) --> (-1).
In-depth computer hardware info? Huh?

...yet falls a bit short of the mayrad imprecise human endeavors that we all take for granted. In doubt? Spy the numerous comments as to the sufficiency of mankind. Oddly, and not unlike computer chess, this sort of mathematical modeling has been around since most of you Slashdotters were still playing with Cabbage Patch Dolls. (I don't mean that as a put-down, in any way, but merely as a historical reference.) Highly perceptive of the poster to point out that this has not been seen here before. The original Crays, Big Blues, and all of the other eccentric PARC, MIT and Cal (forgive ommissions!) "superconmputers" were after one thing back then: to be more human. Hence the birth of "Artificial Intelligence". (Whatever became of that supernatural phrase, I wonder?) Now we live in the world where database programmers using free-as-in-umbrellas software are doing things these "fuzzy logic" hacks of old were only dreaming about on cocktail napkins. (And I should know, I was one of them.) I swear to you all, and forgive the preaching, we live in the future. Not just the now but the future dreamed of by so, so many. Now is the time. Use it wisely. You have the tools.
The idea that manufacturers might be worried about home "fabbing" seems like lunacy. Rapid prototyping involves using a laser to polymerize epoxy resin in a bath. Layers are built up from the resin and after a while a three-dimensional surface emarges. The contours are generated from an illustration program generally. With all of the nearly-possible and amazingly wonderful technologies about which one might present a talk, why this? Pure science fiction. Fantasy. Ridiculous at that.
...clone since about 1994. I can't seem to locate one. It has become something of a hobby of mine: searching the WWW in vain for a good Pong.

this movie. I was a sarcastic teenager; he was a legendary filmaker. At the lecture after a small showing of Westside Story, came his only reply: "Shit." True story. I thought this was the last I had seen of his involvement with this picture.

Can you not, just this once, stop from patting yourselves on the back for your so-called technical brilliance? Please...
I enjoy slashdot.org, but c'mon.
Please?
Cuz this one made me laugh!
...then how come we are not shining laser light into space with our own encoded messages?

Contraposition is reflexively self-evident.

Heat the magnetic medium. Heat randomly orients the poles.
