  1. Re:TDS on Minn. Supreme Court Upholds City's Right To Build Own Network · · Score: 1

    I bet they are not as bad as Integra

  2. Re:Free markets on Minn. Supreme Court Upholds City's Right To Build Own Network · · Score: 0

    Yea that is the exact situation in Coon Rapids where I live (aka the new ghetto thanks to the Metro Council). Comcast however has been good to me but I suspect that is because I am a Business Class customer and I get to skip most of the BS. Qwest has shitty speeds for their price and really can't compete with Comcast. Until Qwest rolls out FTTH their FTTN they won't see a dime from me.

  3. Free markets on Minn. Supreme Court Upholds City's Right To Build Own Network · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I'm all for free Markets but the current Internet situation in Minnesota is pathetic. If the people want better service and are willing to fork out the dough let them however this project (if it gets off the ground) has a huge chance of failing like the many other attempts at Municipal Internet.

  4. Re:Dangerous Amish Gangs? on Crowdsourcing Big Brother In Lancaster, PA · · Score: 0

    Haha those fireplaces are made with the greatest quality...One thing that strikes me everytime I watch those stupid commercials is the fact that Amish don't believe in anything electrical (or newage) yet they help construct these pieces of crap haha

  5. OSS4 on State of Sound Development On Linux Not So Sorry After All · · Score: 1

    needs to be integrated into the Linux core and ALSA/PulseAudio need to die kthx

  6. Re:As long as we're targeting nukes... on US Plans To Bulldoze 50 Shrinking Cities · · Score: 0

    Because it is the antithesis of what a Liberal Government can do to a state and or country with enough unchecked power.

  7. Awesomeness on Google Voice Grabs 1 Million Phone Numbers · · Score: 0

    This could be very useful especially for pranking Ahmad in Boston at 4AM CST

  8. Re:it's called evolution... on Teen Diagnoses Her Own Disease In Science Class · · Score: -1, Troll

    You must be one of those "universal" medical insurance people. Have fun with Obama's plan once rationing takes place and your cancer cannot be treated because the Government can't afford it. Next please

  9. Re:SIMH on Saving Unix Heritage, One Kernel At a Time · · Score: 1

    That's pretty sweet, I'm gonna give this a try to night. Thanks for the link!

  10. I like it on Linux Kernel 2.6.30 Released · · Score: 1

    local NFS caching along with ext4 improvements make this a pretty nice update imo. I will have to compile it later tonight on my Arch Laptop

  11. Now I get to hear about it all day at work... on Fedora 11 Is Now Available · · Score: 1

    Every Fedora release brings 10 different people talking about how they can't wait to install the new release. There is nothing better hearing them bitch the next day about how their machine has all these issues haha. (I am not a Fedora hater in anyway)

  12. This is why... on Hospital Turns Away Ambulances When Computers Go Down · · Score: 1

    We need socialized medicine so the reliable Government can run the industry! Oh wait...

  13. Re:Axl Rose wins the vaporware wars against 3DReal on Duke Nukem For Never · · Score: 1

    HAHAHA I thought the same and was shocked when I actually held a copy of Chinese Democracy in my hands for the first time.
