    If we're going to standardize we might as well put RFIDs in the damn things while we're at it, to make the robots easier to make and thus cheaper.

  2. Ah, what you want is a neighborhood association terminator.

    It should be more or less the same to cook for one or six people.

    Cooking for one: one portion of pasta and one portion of tomato sauce. Cook pasta for 8 minutes and heat tomato sauce for 3 minutes.

    Cooking for six: six portions of pasta and six portions of tomato sauce. Cook pasta for 48 minutes and heat tomato sauce for 18 minutes.

    You seem to be thinking the dishwasher is the problem. I say the problem is you and your many types of dishes, pots and pans.

    That's like a farmer complaining that his lawnmower can't handle his corn fields.

    But then you have to take out the trash more often. Not an easy or fun thing to do in the middle of winter.

  6. I thought food fights originated from the USA? It's such a wasteful thing to do, it has to be American.

  7. The lazy solution is to stop using pots and pans.

  9. Because we're all supposed to know protocol overheads by heart?

    56kbps = 56000 bits per second = 7000 bytes per second. That's almost 3% faster than the number I found, which would have changed the download times I have wrote.

    Hum, déjà vu.

  11. Instead of fighting for a stupid bonus, why aren't they asking for a higher hourly rate?

    But what if everything is good as it is, and changing something would be the evil thing to do?

  13. You are confusing the ISPs (the connection, which is at risk if NN is overturned) and the content providers (which have nothing to do with NN as far as I understand it).

    I can only conclude that your are a troll paid by Comcast, Verizon, AT&T, etc.

    The bus-only lane is not about bandwidth, it's about ping times.

  16. I just did a .webarchive of the site right now, and the file is 3209323 bytes.

    A quick search told me a 56kbps modem downloaded at about 6800 bytes per second.

    That means Slashdot would take ~472 seconds to load (7 minutes and 52 seconds).

    If something like Slashdot takes 3.2MB of data, imagine the size of the websites Ajit Pai is visiting (ex: New York Times, CNN, whatever).

    I'm white, I hate rap music but I also hate country and western music. I figured that while we were banning some kinds of music, we might as well get rid of all the crappy music.

    Then we're living in dictatorships, not free countries.

    While we're busy making rap music illegal, can we also add western music and country music to that list?

    Thanks.

  25. You do realize that China keeps copying things done in other countries, right? Including stealing company and product names?
