  1. Turd Head, huh ? on Flash Developers Fear Spectre of Spyware · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I didn't realize that anything called "Turd Head" or a couple other bloggers constituted "a lot" or anything credible for that matter. Is there another news source for the "issue" the parent raised?

  2. It's Commission Junction! on Generating Revenue with On-Line Ads? · · Score: 1

    Just to be clear, that's Commission Junction, not Connection Junction and most certainly not Consumption Junction. ok, carry on.

  3. It found Claria and removed it for me on Yahoo Anti-Spy Favors Yahoo's Adware Partners? · · Score: 4, Informative

    The first (and only) time I used this product to scan for xx-ware it found Claria and removed it.

    What I am I doing right/wrong?

  4. Peet's Coffee on Newsflash: Gourmet Coffees Have Lots Of Caffeine · · Score: 1

    I see the evil *$ mentioned, but what about good old Peet's Coffee? how much caffeine am I getting with my 20 oz. morning cup?

  5. Feed starving people instead? on Debunking the Trillion-Dollar Space Myth · · Score: 1
    Seems like $1 trillion US would help feed some of the world 800 Million who go to bed hungry each night (SOURCE:WFP).

    In fact, I'm betting with that kind of money programs could be put in place to feed quite a few people across the world. Or retool an out-of-date workforce in the US and abroad. Or even both.

    Some blue-collar guy would probably say "How does this give me a job?" and it's true, it will create some jobs. But we couldn't we get a better bang for our buck than building a space rocket? We may discover some great things on Mars but do we really seem like a nation, or world for that matter, with our priorities inline?

  6. Server4You on Looking to Move from EV1? · · Score: 1

    I struggled with this for quite a while until our little company went with a dedicated @ http://www.server4you.com/us/ we have a small hosting company, a few e-commerce sites and more and have never had any issues. One planned network outage and one unplanned in 6 months time.

    BUT Setup took weeks, maybe a month. They simply had way more orders than they could handle @ $49/month. Setup is $149.

    Drop me an e-mail if I can answer more questions, going to a new host is always scary. If someone has found a better host at a better deal, I wanna know about it too.

    Other stats you might care about:

    Bandwidth Included
    700GB per Month
    Switch Port
    100Mbps, burstable
    Network Uptime Guarantee
    99.999%

  7. Online billing compounds the problem on Stealth Inflation · · Score: 1

    As online biling becomes the norm people are just going to glaze over these charges more and more. I'd expect to see some kind of class-action suit in the near future, as basically some companies are charging for unauthorized fees. Montey Burns just get's richer and we all get screwed. Read your bills people!
