    Alright, Alright, Alright... -.-

  2. Re:I'd support that... on South Carolina Wants To Jam Cell Phone Signals · · Score: 1

    I've been in both the prisons in Joliet. It is Crime University. I heard of things I never would think of. A Long-timer told me that prison is like collage for criminals.

  3. Re:Fox is like the National Enquirer on World Bank Under Cybersiege In "Unprecedented Crisis" · · Score: 1

    I feel dumb for reading this site for SO many years but never created an account till this year. Just wondering what my ID is so I gotta post sometime. (Just looked and it's over 1.3 mil. I really waited to long to make an account!)

  4. Re:I think I speak with many of us when I say on Blizzard-Activision Merger Official · · Score: 1

    I play wow on what's considered the "Special Olympics" of PVE progression yet there are still people out there playing the PVE game. I'm a warrior but I'm not stepping into an arena without some sort of healing class. (I actully run with a moonkin druid when I do.) And I don't re-spec to PVP. I PVP prot and when I do BG's I'm almost always in the top 5 of the list.

  5. Confession of a WiFi "Thief" on Confessions of a Wi-Fi Thief · · Score: 1

    I'm bring this computer to this new home. I turn it on. It connects to a Wifi Connection I believe is next door. The signal's not that great, but it lets me access the internet. I'm unemployed so I can't afford to get a REAL connection. A year has gone by... Nothing has changed. Never got as much as a complaint from the neighbor. I have a range extender sitting right in the window in plain view so it's no big secret that I'm using their Internet. Evidently they don't care. Maybe they left it open on purpose. Maybe they don't know how to secure it. From what I've seen on other networks provided by the same ISP's thou they set it up with WEP or other encryption. SO i gather that they the network owner intentionally opened it. So I don't consider myself in the wrong for using it. I've seen this similar posts about this subject here on /. for awhile. I just now after all these years of reading this site created an account, so I could post. Most of the time people already say what I think on a issue one way or another. Truthfully I think this is just another case of laws run amok in todays modern society. Finding more ways to make things that are not wrong, wrong by making a BS law about it. The whole issue of "Stealing" Internet however you define it is crap and garbage. No one owns the Internet. There should be no barrier barring someone from accessing it. This whole society has made me very distraught and filled me full of angst. I'm gonna stop now before I go into a rant... MerlinX420 (I do wish they would move the router a little closer!)

  6. Re:"Stealing" isn't the right word. on Confessions of a Wi-Fi Thief · · Score: 1

    "Stealing" Internet? In order for it to be "stolen" someone would have to "own" it. So your telling me that ISP's "OWN" the internet?
