    They're really not shy about flaunting that ignorance either.

  5. Re:Protocol faster than DSL? on BIC-TCP 6,000 Times Quicker Than DSL · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Not to dampen the hillarity, which I'm sure will continue to ensue, but the comparison seems to be for referential purposes rather than a direct comparison of protocols.
    If I didn't know how fast 100 kph or 62 mph were, would I know they were equal?

    Did you ever think that we should just require that software companies produce products which perform as advertised?

    No sir, not at all!

    Exactly my point, well, maybe not exactly.
    Last year, a SSL vulnerability was discovered and patched, almost immediately, in OpenSSL.
