  1. Re:About time on EiffelStudio Goes Open · · Score: 1, Funny

    Thanks, I've been looking for a development enviroment that surrenders, drinks wine, smokes, and calls me `Ahmereecan Swine`. I'll give it a go.

    I believe the 2 player game you are looking for is sex. Try not to blow her out of the water (unless she's still into that, haven't seen her in a while).

  4. Not just the telcos on A Look at IPTV · · Score: 1

    Cable companies are doing IPTV as well, you just don't notice because it's on their transport end. The company I work for began rolling this out about 1.5 years ago, the non-local programming is carried across our fiber ring until it gets to the headend that needs to deliver it across the cable where it is modulated into a QAM and received by the set-top-box. True it's not IPTV the entire way but it is forseeable that at some point it may be.

    We have an imposter among us! (Actually I have a wife too, although instead of stopping me from speeding it makes my steering wheel want to turn right sharply into oncoming electrical poles.)

  9. Re:This isn't an ISP it's a VPN client. on Google WiFi+VPN Confirmed · · Score: 1

    That's the way I understood it as well. It secures WIFI by tunneling and encrypting the traffic until it reaches google's server where it is converted to normal traffic. Hrm.. Too much trust in google... Google mail, google talk, google maps, google earth, google vpn. There needs to be a serious concern that the information they have on us doesn't get leaked out. This would be way worse than credit card numbers getting stolen.

    This is exactly how I exploited a Novell network while in high school.. I wrote a keystroke logger and then intentionally entered my own password wrong serveral times until I was locked out. I called the Sysadmin over and he logged in on the computer and reset my password. I then pulled his password from the logger and made my own sysadmin account 'jdoe'.

  17. Re:Relocating New Orleans victims on Rebuilding New Orleans With Science · · Score: 1

    If they don't have insurance the government can give them an approximate amount for their home if they build it somewhere other than a flood plain. Re-building New Orleans in the same spot is stupid because it will happen again.

  18. WTC vs New Orleans on Rebuilding New Orleans With Science · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I keep hearing people comparing the WTC vs New Orleans. Yes they were both disasterous that happened about the same time of the year but thats really where the similiarities stop. The WTC was a terroist attack not an an evitable act of god because a bunch of Frenchmen decided to build below sea level in a hurricane prone area. This isn't the first time New Orleans flooded, it won't be the last if they rebuild it. And fire that stupid-ass mayor for blaiming everyone except New Orleans.

  20. Cable will use a similiar tech in the near future on Experimental 4G Phone Service Faster Than Cable · · Score: 5, Interesting

    DOCSIS 3 will use a channel bonding technique to achieve similiar speeds through coaxial. Essentially by reclaiming analog channel space by converting to all digital systems (I'm beta testing this right now) in the next 3 years that same analog space can be phased out giving back all the waste channel space without needing upgrade the cable system itself to support higher frequencies. What this basically does in layman terms is instead of sending all the data across the same frequency it breaks the data up across multiple frequencies in parallel.

    Something to the effect of:

    Old
    699Mhz 11111111
    New
    699Mhz 1
    689Mhz 1
    679Mhz 1
    669Mhz 1
    659Mhz 1
    649Mhz 1
    639Mhz 1
    629Mhz 1

    It probably will take 6mhz, not 10mhz but by allowing some space between the carriers it avoids some noise between them.

    No they should of drove or ridden with someone 3 days before the storm hit like the vast majority of people there.

  22. New Orleans at fault. on Sonic 'Lasers' to be Deployed in Hurricane Region · · Score: 1

    Ok let's start with the fact that even when I was 13 years old and learned that New Orleans was below sea level I thought "Wow I bet that really floods." Secondly they was a MANDATORY EVACUATION of New Orleans days before the storm hit. If your stupid ass is stuck on a roof or in a stadium because you didn't leave then it's your own damn fault. It's a terrible tragedy but I like to think of it as evolution in progress. Let's move on to the stupid ass Mayor Nagin blaming the federal goverment for not coming and bailing them out. UH that's what local government is responsible for, planning for this kind of thing. It's not like terrorists came in and made a hurricane to destroy those cajuns. Finally New Orleans has hundreds of busses they could have used to evacuate the city, but they didn't. Here's a solution for next time. DON'T re-build a city below sea level. DON'T build a city where levees are needed to keep it safe. DON'T elect a dumbass Mayor who doesn't plan for disasters that have been predicted for decades. DON'T blame other people for your own stupid decisions. DO plan a meeting with other major city governments to see how to plan for disaster.
