    So it would be a scandal if it were with Massie?

    The richest people I personally know all have liberal arts degrees. Granted they are all evil and work in advertising, but they still have liberal arts degrees.

    House Representatives Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Mark Pocan (D-WI) caught up in gay sex scandal according to anonymous government sources.

  6. Compared to my electric radiator? on Energy Company Trials Computer Servers To Heat Homes · · Score: 1

    This sounds beyond useless. Going by my Mac Pro tower, and my $30 electric radiator: Mac Pro, expensive, never really gets all that warm, did almost nothing to warm up my room, draws more power. Electric Oil Filled Radiator, Wicked cheap, warms my room nicely enough, draws less power them my Mac Pro.

    Sounds like it would be extremely expensive an inefficient to get my computer up to the same temp as my furnace, not to mention horrible on the computer parts.

    If we are serious about trust then yes, otherwise this isn't the beginning of the end, it's just the end. If the cert's cannot be trusted and we are not willing to take the steps to preserve that trust then the whole internet economy goes poof.

    So they had to power to originally classify ISP's, but some how now they don't?

  14. Re:Only Republicans are stupid enough... on First Lawsuits Challenging FCC's New Net Neutrality Rules Arrive · · Score: 1

    How is the FCC claiming power it does not have? It is chartered to regulate the communication infrastructure in this country. That is the reason it was created so in what way is anything it has been doing lately anything more then that. I keep hearing how the FCC overstepped it's bounds when it re classified ISP's as title 2. My question for you is how so? Who originally classified them as ESP's (Enhanced Service Providers)?

    While you may not agree that classifying ISP's as Title 2 is the right thing, to claim it is outside of the FCC's power is ridiculous.

    You know whats worse? Constant ties. Take a look at the NHL lately. 81 games ended in a shoot out and it is becoming a big problem for them. It drives away fans who want to see a game, and don't want to see it come down to an individual skills contest. No one wants equal outcomes, we just want balanced teams to entertain us, but mostly we want our team to win.

  16. Re: Important? on "Google Glass Isn't Dead!" Says Google's CEO Eric Schmidt · · Score: 0

    Considering they have had it in developers hands for 2 years with a consumer version no where in sight I'd say it was a pretty spectacular failure. Not only did the product go nowhere, it gave Google a PR black eye especially with some of their "ambassadors".

    Why? don't you think what ever lab she is at will have either their own or access to a supercomputer? Why waste money on some weird cloud based computing that if she actually did run a simulation on would probably bankrupt her.

    Physicists have real computational power at their beck and call (or at least they can schedule it), her laptop does not need to worry about that.
