  1. Re:Fresh start on The Chinese Route To a Web Free of Porn · · Score: 2, Funny

    But hey... in China, Too Young is just a name!

  2. In Korea on 20 Years of MS Word and Why It Should Die a Swift Death · · Score: 1

    A lot of people mentioning email here but in Korea, email is only for old people

  3. Hello? on WSJ Says Gov't Money Injection Won't Help Broadband · · Score: 1

    You can tell the US needs a network upgrade when I'm halfway around the world away getting the first post on a dial-up?

  4. Re:Abroad? on Study Abroad For Computer Science Majors? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    It really is simple like that and a lot of people are already doing it. That's why the masters programmes at my uni (KTH) are crammed with mostly asian (China, Pakistan, etc) foreign students every year, coming here for a free (as in beer) and decent education. It's a pretty sweet deal of course and has caused some public debate whether this is viable or not, since it's all tax payers money funding it. In one of my CS courses there was an african guy in his late 30's enrolled so I guess it's indeed possible to work something out.

  6. great hallmark on AMD Launches First 45nm Shanghai CPUs · · Score: 1

    yea to be honest, I don't think most people associate 'Shanghai' with something nifty (altough it is one of the most thriving city in China).

  7. Re:Color Me Confused on Microsoft Joins the OpenID Foundation · · Score: 1

    Well you know, when this reaches the masses out there it's only a matter of time before clueless people start writing down their OpenID master password on yellow post-it notes next to their workstation or whatever. Like the place I worked at where people would gladly hand over their password to me when something needed fixing. Not to mention clueless Joe Sixpacks keylogger & trojan infested computer... these noob user related problems ain't exactly unheard of today so it's hard to believe that OpenID would solve these things in a whim.

  8. Re:Color Me Confused on Microsoft Joins the OpenID Foundation · · Score: 1

    And if/when some sinister DNS poisoning shows up to the party, it's gonna be big trouble. Or heck, someone simply gets hold of your master password. Oops someone just got full access to ALL your favorite websites... isn't this a major single point of failure issue or have I missed something?

  9. Re:Summary Clarification on How Networks Interact — Peering and Transit Explained · · Score: 1

    I know it's too much too ask for but if you actually go on to RTFA, you realize that he correctly describes peering and transit as TWO (different) mechanisms to manage the economic arrangements.
