  1. Government waste is already here,,, on The Internet Is Killing Local News, Says the FCC · · Score: 2

    Seems to me the FCC doing a 475 page report on something that was pretty obvious is Government waste.

  2. Re:"Receiving stolen property"? Why is this a crim on Facebook Photo of Stolen Ring Puts Couple In Jail · · Score: 1

    She absolutely should have suspected the ring was stolen. When someone gives you a $16,000 ring who didn't have the financial means to purchase it in the first place - that is a big red flag.

  3. Re:I'm all for banning guns on Congresswoman and Staff Gunned Down · · Score: 1

    Because "shooting them in the leg" most likely doesn't stop the threat. And if they're "getting away" then the immediate mortal threat may be gone depending on the suspect. Should we just start capping every shoplifter who steals a pack of gum now?

  4. Re:The sky is falling...again? on IPv4 Free Pool Drops Below 10%, 1.0.0.0/8 Allocated · · Score: 1

    Touche. To clarify...I was mostly referring to back in the 90's when we were told the address space was runnig out only to have NAT save the day and CIDR before that. I wasn't clear about that. Other upper management types in my world think there's going to be some worldwide "flashcut" to IPv6 on hardware that does IPv6 in process only and not hardware.

  5. The sky is falling...again? on IPv4 Free Pool Drops Below 10%, 1.0.0.0/8 Allocated · · Score: 1

    Not the first time the IPv4 Sky is falling. CIDR and NAT fixed the first couple of times. Quite possible there will be a large proliferation of v4 to v6 gateways. Or other policy changes to prolong the available pool of IPv4. The "drop dead date" for running out of address space keeps getting pushed out....
