Meh. Twenty Eight dollars a month for 6Mb/s DSL is good enough for me. I'd go faster but for not much more money. Point is a connection is valuable, but very high bit rates will not make the experience that much better.
I literally have fiber in my back yard. Thank you SureWest. Can choose Comcast. Piss on you Comcast. ATT uverse or DSL. Thank you for the good $/bit ratio. GOOG fiber is coming soon. Hype and price, no thanks. Though the 300 dollar for 5mb/s service offer is tempting.
You are parched, how much for a glass of water in the desert? The second, the third. The ninety-ninth? Once satiated the price you are willing to pay decreases to the point more glasses of water have no real value to you. In this case the 1gb/s 'glass' costs a lot more than the 6mb/s one that satisfy the need.
What our fine Judge Alito said is it is ok to trespass, just don't get caught. Ok, it is a bit more complicated than that.
Example. A neighbor sneaks in to Judge Alito's unlocked home. Judge cannot prosecute the neighbor's trespass, because Judge Alito cannot prove the neighbor had trespassed because it is legal to trespass secretly. Even though the neighbor has records to each and every trespassing, the records seem to be off limits as well.
Not true. Signed in Bill Clinton's tenure? It basically says 'any US citizen violating a US law is guilty of breaking that law, regardless of their location at the time of the event. 'It goes on to say that any 'US citizen breaking a law of a [specific] foreign countries is then a felon in the US.'
http://www.uniset.ca/other/cs6/253F3d234.html In 1998, Thomas Bean, an FFL, was in Laredo participating in a gun show. One evening he crossed the border into Mexico for dinner. A box of ammo was found in his vehicle by Mexican customs officers. At the time importing ammunition into Mexico was considered a felony. Bean was charged and convicted of the felony of unlawfully importing ammunition. As a convicted felon, Bean lost all rights to possess firearms when he returned to the US.

Cost / Benefit? Checked NE, Kingston prices: 11.00 for 1G PC6400 14.50 for 1G PC6400 ECC 11.50 for 1G PC5300 13.50 for 1G PC5300 ECC
It will show up when the cost/benefit is favorable and the consumer understands the benefit. 2.50 - 3.50 per stick, or <10 dollars for 2GB Error Correcting Code memory is a very cheap investment.
MBs which support ECC I am guessing here - are about the same price premium 20-30%. Many nicer boards support ECC, but I do not have time to download motherboard manuals and sift through them. NE is clear about the server MBs support of ECC. Otherwise, know if the chipset supports ECC and read the fine manual.
Point here is the investment to mitigate crashes/freezes is not very high.

when you announce that you don't use these technologies, all you show us is that you are indulging in some sort of odd attention-seeking disorder with a strange misplaced pride
What you are saying is people should be ashamed of controlling what they view.
If someone likes the way things are, you are cool with it, but if they say they do not like it they are 'indulging in some sort of odd attention-seeking disorder with a strange misplaced pride.'
It is funny you take the high position of just accepting what is newer than '1994', and the rest of the population is wrong because they do not accept java scripts or flash.
Bottom line-- Taking what you want is the right choice, taking what what someone else wants you to have is the wrong one.
Flash is indeed evil, but it's also necessary to get anything out of an increasing number of sites. The choice is basically live with the occasional Flash abuse or cut yourself off from an ever-growing amount of content on the web. Whether that additional content is worth the annoyance of the occasional Flash ad is a personal decision.
The challenge is going to be scaling the technology from a "2cm" boat to something useful.
It is fairly obvious how a bug moves about on the surface of still water, but the article says boats or small aquatic objects. A boat requires a lot of power to move against waves, wind and ocean currents.
Am I alone in imagining water surface tension is never going to be enough to overcome the resistances to the forces found on our oceans?
I was and am sick of Comcast, and I never intend to go back to them. They were the only game in town in 2000, and now they are not. Now they look like a dinosaur by comparison. I think it is Very sad when nearly all choices look better than comcasts offerings. Hell they lost to the the typical last place finisher, AT&T!
Until I see the video I will give them the benefit of the doubt about being safe. Many people think driving fast equates to being irresponsible. It is not that simple. Sure the risk is higher the faster you go, but how many of you have driven well over 100 mph for 100s of miles.
Theoretically they could have completed this in a mini van. The obstacle was not traffic it was being caught. The rules they broke are arbitrarily set, and the parent poster is short chill-pills. IMHO, does not warrant a felony.
Many years ago in most western states the speed limit was 'reasonable and prudent.' The capabilities of the automobiles in the 50's to early 60's were just awful. 4 wheel drum brakes, bias-ply tires, and poor suspension.
Point is when the limits were highest the cars ability to brake, turn and stop were the WORST. Driving faster than the current speed limits is not harmful.
I really wonder how many people are choosing not to update their TV sets to HD TV sets, because there is nothing compelling them to do so.
The decision to not buy a HD set is reinforced by talk of US Government credits for HD tuner purchases, and learning the cable population they are good till 2012.
Let us not forget the date of HD *only* broadcasts was pushed out 2 years. It was 2006, and is now 2008.
Why would the population who is happy with standard NTSC change their way? There are not a lot motivating factors here in the US in regards to HD TV acceptance.
We can all thank Mayor Daily for the airport distruction (I think I spelled the Mayor's name wrong, but correcting it is not worth the effort).
Paraphrasing the reason for the destruction, "the people of Chicago live in fear of terrorist attacks, and I need to do what I can to keep Chicago safe."
Secretly planning to destroy the airport in the early morning hours acheives that end?
Soo many wannabe geeks try to hardwire their homes with cat5; that's a waste of money considering Wireless N is faster than most cabling methods.
I am a geek and am very happy I have hard wired this place. Wireless is a shared medium, and much easier to snoop than hard wire.
Expensive? Have you priced a 100" box of CAT5E?
Wireless has its place, as does wired.
CAT5E/6 for phone and network, RG6 for cable TV. As others have said he will sell the place one day. Most people will be excited they can plug a phone or TV where they please.

What? Trespassing is illegal. It is apparent you do not comprehend the what the judge said.
Your question is not relevant to the topic. Go away AC.

Doing nothing was a better option. Locking the brakes and turning the wheel was not so good.

There is often one in a family. Remember the 1.13Ghz PIII, the AMD x64. Right now it is the 45nm Core2Duo [wolfdale] processors.
Target undervolting 10% and OC the FSB about 10%. Of course turn on the energy saving features like the C1E reported in the story.
I have called comcast 'crapcast' for about 2 years, and I was a loyal customer of comcast from 2000 to 2005.

I make good use of the FlashSwitch application. FlashSwitch is a utility to instantly turn MacromediaFlash playback on and off.

Sites heavily dependent on flash are faster with it off, and of course flash only sites will not work when you have flash turned off.

Do any of thes biological factors ever predict mental capacity or mental ability?
but do regular people actually sign up with their real name / information, and even if they do, is it likely that sex offenders do too?
A good fraction of sex offenders became sex ofenders because an underage person had sex with another under age person.
Would you cower for the rest of your life for having had sex at 16 with your 16 year old BF/GF? I would not.
