The DSO-101 does 2MHz:

I think bitscope goes higher. Both Bitscope and DSO-101 seem to have open source software (which might be of interested to some).
So, do people in the UK dream in PAL and people in the USA dream in NTSC? I'm glad I grew up in the UK, dream in NTSC just seems like the stuff nightmares are made of!
I definitely remember being a child in the '80s and dreaming in 8-bit graphics, too much playing Elite and Exile I think.
for example, an impatient bozo in a SUV comes up behind you while you're coasting, honks,
Ah, you mean the guy the who wants to make the turn light, but he's being stopped by the "coaster". He'll sit at the turn left light for five minutes getting 0mpg waiting for the next green light. Only if he'd bought a hybrid.
Not every body gets in the way doing this, but some people do, it's kind of an annoying and selfish habit in some circumstances.
And when the pilot bearings wears out, it causes vibration on the input shaft to the transmission, which causes the input shaft seal to fail, which let's the oil drip out, which gets on the clutch plate, which causes the clutch plate to slip, which creates heat, which causes the fly wheel to crack, which chews up the clutch plate, which causes the clutch plate to grip, and every thing seems work fine again, for a little while anyway, this is when to sell your car and get a new one.
Anyway I think that the Slashdot usage of the term "Creationism" should be replaced by the phrase "Young Earth Creationism"
(YEC for short)
Eventually your belief (the one about your invisible friend creating everything) will be challenged. Then you must move your goal posts or do what the "YEC" sheep are doing, cling to fiction and trying to force everybody else to accept their fiction.
But, until then, enjoy the comfort your beliefs bring to you.
When they used the term "sheep" in the bible, do you think the people penning it chuckled as they wrote it...
When the Apple TiBook first came out (before the days MacOSX), I got one and installed PPC linux on it. I was always amazed by how quickly it booted, around 20seconds. Of course, if you're also running XP, this probably won't work for you...
Those who commit suicide are to blame for their actions
Blame? Whatever, we're not short on people, everybody should be allowed to kill them self. Only religious nut cases (i.e. the mis-informed) believe otherwise.
If you feel pity (for?) the deceased...
I'm so jealous, what could be easier?
Look dude, it's not your fault, you don't have to fight it so hard. They made their choice, you must let go, get on with your live, go and make your choices. You don't have to feel guilt for their death, you don't have project that guilt on to the deceased.
I see your pain, feel pity for you. I feel pity for you because you feel you deserve pity, and well that's kind of sad. I feel pity, because you feel so guilty about the death of your wife (this was your wife, right?), that you continue to blame her for your suffering longer after her last breath.
You must accept the the decision she made, not feel guilt, not feel a need to blame her. I get the feeling you lover her a lot, even if you're not the best husband in world.
Forgive you're wife, then forgive yourself. There is no point in wasting two lives over one death. Take care.
When you come home an realize someone you care about committed this act without letting you help,
Feeling guilty because you know deep down you missed some hints, some clues, your chance to stop it? Then just blame somebody else, and so it loudly, to drown out the crying inside you that you try to hide because you are complicit in their death.
Unless you meant, "help them commit" suicide, making sure they do it right first with minimum pain, in which case, carry on with the good work.
If some asshat broke into one of my servers then told me how, I'd send his ass to jail too.
If you parked your car in a rough part of town, didn't lock it, and left the keys in the ignition, surely it would get stolen? But no, because somebody sees this, grabs the keys and runs after you to give them back, do you: A) Shot them for stealing your car? B) Have them arrested for breaking into your car? C) Thank them from saving you from the embarrassment of loosing your car and the cost of getting it back?
it would cost me tens of thousands of dollars in cleanup.
Are you talking about fixing your security? Or you got your admin experience working at San Francisco City's IT department? How much would it cost of somebody trying to make money or cause destruction broke into your server?
In the case present in this article. I think installing a key logger and getting other peoples passwords is lame and is an infringement of the privacy, maybe he should be prosecuted or remanded for doing this.
While that kind of payment is good, it unfortunately encourages people to blackmail for the reward. I would rather people avoid trying to steal data with the intention of performing a "good deed" for the reward.
If data about me stored by a 3rd party company can be easily stolen, I would prefer somebody did and exploited the 3rd party company rather than me. If they are not adequately protecting my data then they deserve to be punished (or punched as I had originally "mis-typed").
There are already laws in place to deal with people stealing data for what ever reason, people violating them to collect data will not be rewarded. This thread was started with the implication that such laws could be used by corporations to silence honest people.
Yeah I'm sure he'll be thanked for his trouble.. with a pair of handcuffs and a hood..
Yeah, with the current level of collusion between the corporate world, the government and judicial system, there is very little incentive to do the right thing. He should be give 10% of what ever appropriately large fine should be placed on the Banks and companies involved.
They made an ISO, made 3 CDs of each ISO (one for the filing cabinet, one for off site back up, one for the on site safe), then didn't both deleting the ISOs...
...when Gramps and Granny pass away live over the video link... oh dear! On the other hand it's good for children to learn about death at an early age.
I read his guy's "question" a few times, I've got no idea what he's asking, you could both be right, for all I know. I'm not even sure how what he's asking for will solve the problem ("no body should know I'm slacking off and watching TV when I'm supposed to be working").
I think this guy's just bragging about having a work from home job, while trying to act all old skool and cool by dissing VOIP.
I suppose you could store router logs or block illegal websites....
Or not, and be perfectly ok. Why would I care if people are pursuing illicit activities online? If they are not causing problems for me, they are free to use my connection. Also, given the stupidity of most laws, I'm glad to help out and anonymize them a little bit. Are you worried that people might be doing something illegal online? or are you worried about getting busted for somebody else's crime?
Who cares? My wifi is unsecured, I live in a big City. Providing people don't use up too much bandwidth, I don't care and I'm happy to share my connection for free. One time somebody got abusive with the bandwidth, so I changed the network name asking them to stop. And they stopped. Neat, eh!
This is the Olympics, the Olympics are about making money. $1200 for basic high speed internet access at the Olympics sounds about right. It's not reasonable or fair, but $1200 for a month of internet access at once in while/lifetime event sounds pretty affordable.
Suck it up, be a patriotic American, put it on your credit card! If it's that bad then split it with somebody else, or rebel by giving your internet away free...
I can't wait for people to explain to, you know, the homeless...
Hi homeless people of the world,
as you may have noticed we are running out of planet, so in order to solve this problem we going to try and get another planet, maybe even a bigger one. However, this costs money and use up resources, so we have to cut back on invading other countries and your medicine. I'm sure you understand it's for the best. You know, only 1 planet and no shortage of people.
We would also like to point out that there are still place open in many of the different experimental Venus Frontier Colony programs. Then you wouldn't be homeless and you could get your medicine.
Please note that there is no space left in any of the "Telephone Sanitizer" Colony programs (B1-B8).
the Constitution specifies that a conviction can only be obtained by direct confession in open court
Easy, one confession coming right up, boss. Now that the US endorses the use of torture for law enforcement and legal proceedings, everything is going to run very efficiently.
Slashdot Mirror
Once you're up there, if nothing else, you at least have time to react when something goes wrong.
Like when you get sucked into a jet engine.

MMmmmm, nethack... I would mod you up if I hadn't already reply to this article.
Ok, technically it was 4bit graphics, but since I don't count flashing as a color, it only had 8 colo(u)rs.
So, do people in the UK dream in PAL and people in the USA dream in NTSC? I'm glad I grew up in the UK, dream in NTSC just seems like the stuff nightmares are made of!

No! In a "real" democracy, the guy with 49% beats the guy 51%.
sounds like bullshit show elections to me.
More or less BS sounding show elections than the guy winning with 49%....?
My question would be if they were working a fire in a window unit on the second floor, what were they doing in the basement?
You fail at pretending to be a volunteer fireman.
He is asking...

Hi homeless people of the world,
as you may have noticed we are running out of planet, so in order to solve this problem we going to try and get another planet, maybe even a bigger one. However, this costs money and use up resources, so we have to cut back on invading other countries and your medicine. I'm sure you understand it's for the best. You know, only 1 planet and no shortage of people.

Many Thanks, The Government.
