I've just expanded the comments on this page, ran a search for the term "heat," found a few mentions of overheating but no suggestions to prevent it. So let me ask here:
Does any Slashdotter reading this have any recommendations for a DSL modem-router (combined unit preferred) that can withstand, say, an Australian Summer while operating under load without crapping out every few minutes?
I realise that it will involve heat sinks and/or fans, and that the price will reflect this. Perfectly understandable. That said, this is for a small business/home environment, and I don't have an unbounded budget.
Compatibility with DD-WRT, OpenWRT, Tomato, etc. would be a godsend, too.
Asking because no router I've bought during the past ten years can make it through ten minutes of anything-more-than-idling without dropping sync repeatedly in an endless loop once the Summer heat sets in. (What a hideous sentence.)
I am aware that his confessions have been doubted as having been obtained under torture, but I'm not up-to-date on the latest developments / information.
I can understand the thought processes that transpired here, but I can not conceive of that which brought you to take the fruit of such processes and publish it.
Okay, but I still don't understand how a bunch of mouth-breathing sadists tuning in from home translates into revenue.
Money comes from advertising contracts, broadcast licensing and, to a lesser extent, bums on seats. I can see the money flow there. I don't see how a brief spike in home viewership will benefit them.
By ratings, you mean people would have turned on the news for a few minutes just to see it? And this would result in increased revenue?
Not trying to be snarky, but I don't understand how those eyeballs translate into revenue. There's quite a leap between flicking on the TV and buying seat tickets.
That's exactly what he's arguing, and he's absolutely right.
Perhaps you disagree? Explain how. Use clear, non-lame logic to demonstrate why you think he's wrong. Be sure to show ALL of the logical steps behind your thought processes.
And note that basing your argument on a shaky assumption will result in an instant fail for the course.

Honestly, no. But the idea amuses me.
If she lost a VHS tape 9 years ago, and the store went under since then, (1) there's no victim
Are you seriously not seeing the cause-effect relationship here?

Thank you.

I find articles like this one to be the most interesting content that pops up here on Slashdot, even if I can't wrap my head around it.

Got it. Thank you for your time and patience.

Sorry, I forgot to include kickbacks/bribery/corruption in the revenue sources. Consider that list amended.

I read this as dentists. Thanks for the laugh.

Has it been tested? Any reason why it wouldn't scale?
Mind if I ask when that was?

Very nice reply Varangian. Thanks for taking the time.
