  1. Umm.... on Universal Music Group's New Music Sharing Service · · Score: 1

    why not just steal the music?

  2. Re:Due process? on Toledo Uncappers Getting Shafted · · Score: 1

    Where have you been?

    There are so many asterixs in the Bill of Rights now - nobody can remember what it said!

    Due Process? How about drug dealers ACCUSED (not CONVICTED) of selling drugs getting EVERYTHING they own confiscated and SOLD to the highest bidder!

  3. Replacing one with the other on Senators Aim to Wirelessly Jumpstart Broadband · · Score: 1

    What makes you think that changing control of the infrastructure from one bloated, non-responsive bureaucracy (SBC for example) to another bloated, non-responsive bureaucracy (say Chicago) will do anybody any good?

    Oh yeah - Um .... who maintains the COs then?

    The Department of Telephony?

  4. Re:This is real! 2100MHz +/- or MMDS may be the ra on Senators Aim to Wirelessly Jumpstart Broadband · · Score: 1

    Very kewl! But I have so many questions ...

    What kind of bandwidth do your clients typically get?
    What hardware do they need?
    What is the monthly cost?
    Is anyone else worried what GHz range transmissions will do to the inside of one's skull?

    And of course - my favorite question to wireless providers is - what environmental factors (rain, lightning, solar flares, etc..) screw it up?

    Personally I'm hoping that a UWB solution will enter this space - but I'm sure glad that someone is starting to compete with those legacy wired systems.

  5. Re:More moderation fun on Senators Aim to Wirelessly Jumpstart Broadband · · Score: 1

    Good point -

    How the fuck is this new spectrum supposed to get put to use without private investment?

    Apparently the United States of America is a haven for evil profit taking capitalist dogs...

    Shame on them

    We should all be following that glorious Soviet model for economic progress.

  7. No Problem on Helping Your Ex-Employer? · · Score: 1

    This has happened to me so many times its ridiculous. But Its a good thing - great way to make some easy cash on the side

    Simply figure out what you're worth an hour - then double it.

    Offer the ex-employer two rates - the doubled rate if they pay above the table (taxes, 1099 etc)- Or - The rate discounted by a third if its paid in cash

  8. Re:Good Ridance .. on The Last Comdex? · · Score: 1

    Dont get me wrong - I love Vegas. Its just that being there during Comdex sucked ass!

    Vegas was the only reason anybody went to that stupid show in the first place.

    Ever been to the Vegas one? - I've been 6 too many times and what have I learned? - You cant get a cab in Vegas!

  10. Sorry but ... on FCC Clears Comcast Purchase Of AT&T Broadband · · Score: 1

    I have to vent ...

    What exactly is the point of them reviewing the godamned merger in the first place... I mean how fucking stupid!

    Hmm.. lets see now - if the Number 1 and 2 cable companies merge - it will be good for the consumer.

    I'm unfortunately stuck with these assholes until somebody comes to my town and gives me DSL - at which point I'll dump these losers in a heartbeat

    ok ... you can all mod me into oblivion now ...

  11. Re:I want that cover... on Microsoft Targeting Indian Developers · · Score: 1
