  1. Workaround & Theory on Reason To Hope Carriers Won't Win the War On Netflix · · Score: 1

    I think I just proved that it's not evil Verizon blocking specifically Netflix traffic.
    I tried watching several things on Netflix and watched what IP's it connected to. Any IP that wasnt going over 2-3 MB (Megabytes) / sec I would block on the firewall.

    After blocking off the NYC and Telia IP's, it started connecting to DFW, ATL, and SJ and loading streaming vids very quickly!

    fast IP's

  2. Re:... vested interest. on Why AMD Could Win The Coming Visual Computing Battle · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I'm still rooting for AMD. I think that they can pull themselves out of the mess they made. Why? No sane reason. But whenever the U.S. economy decides to come back up, so will AMD.

  3. ... vested interest. on Why AMD Could Win The Coming Visual Computing Battle · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    This was written by an AMD shareholder, of course. Guilty as charged as well, here.

  4. Re:It'll be interesting to see on Judge Deals Blow to RIAA · · Score: 1

    Not the point! The more lawsuits like these get on the news, the more joe sixpack will be scared to be downloading just about Anything off the nets without paying for it!

  5. zaurus comes close... on A Palm for Every Purpose · · Score: 1

    I snagged a Sharp Zaurus SL-5500 from a WIZ that was closing nearby for $200. Amazing device.. how often do you see a PDA run linux? As it matches your wish list.. not too bad! 1. sorry no cell phone. 2. Yes, you can run mame and emulators on it. 3. kernel 2.4.6 embedix 4. maybe not. but you can have up to a gig in secure digital slot and probably more for the compact flash 5. sure. 6. wifi via compact flash 7. gps support

  6. secure? on Mementos as Document Retrieval Keys · · Score: 1

    And what is stopping someone from making a color copy of your "memento" and open your data?

  7. in the worst case... on New Ultra-Intrusive Pop-up Ads Introduced · · Score: 1

    maybe ALT-F4 (or other close application keys) still work? Or are these blocked as well?

  8. .what? on Is .NET Relevant to Game Developers? · · Score: 2, Funny

    first COM, then .NET, what's next? .ORG? .GOV (forced compliance with PATRIOT act) ..?

  9. 666 on Barcodes: The Number of the Beast · · Score: 1

    I just got a popup ad for barcodes after i went to "Read More..." link...

    too bad i'm not using Mozilla at home.

  10. Better Documentation can be most useful on If I Had My Own Distro... · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Instead of going and creating yet another Linux distribution, it would be more useful to create a very well-organized collection of inforamation on various programs that typically come with Linux distributions.
    This would include basic setup instructions, troubleshooting, and everything related to that. In the applications section there would be data sheets for each application/group of applications, listing its data files and sizes, dependencies, suggested system requirements, and features in comparison to similar programs.
