"You know the world's 12 thousand years old and dinosaurs existed, they existed in that time, you'd think it would have been mentioned in the fucking Bible at some point. "And lo Jesus and the disciples walked to Nazareth. But the trail was blocked by a giant brontosaurus... with a splinter in his paw. And O the disciples did run a shriekin': 'What a big fucking lizard, Lord!' But Jesus was unafraid and he took the splinter from the brontosaurus's paw and the big lizard became his friend. And Jesus sent him to Scotland where he lived in a loch for O so many years inviting thousands of American tourists to bring their fat fucking families and their fat dollar bills.And oh Scotland did praise the Lord. Thank you Lord, thank you Lord. Thank you Lord."
"Get this, I actually asked one of these guys, OK, Dinosaurs fossils - how does that fit into you scheme of life? Let me sit down and strap in. He said, "Dinosaur fossils? God put those there to test our faith." I think God put you here to test my faith, Dude. You believe that? "uh huh." Does that trouble anyone here? The idea that God.. might be.. fuckin' with our heads? I have trouble sleeping with that knowledge. Some prankster God running around: "Hu hu ho. We will see who believes in me now, ha ha."

Yes, because your average user knows what every one of those things are.
The majority of people aquire Firefox using the method outlined in the guy's blog, not from a distro's ISO. At least I hope they do, otherwise a lot of people have wasted a whole load of cash on that NYT ad.
Microsoft then hired outside investigators to stake out and follow whoever picked up the mail. It turned out to be Jason Cazes, who Mr. McBride said sells "MaxxLength" penis enlargement pills
Huh? The Manhunt ads are just the advertiser we have on the site at the moment.
1. WTF do the Microsoft adverts on/. have to do with/.'s open-source bias? Why does an advert have to tie in with the story all the time?
2. When did Slashdot buy Microsoft? Why does a company have to own the company that its ads are displayed near?

Its a Boeing 767 Jet, not a Fuck Off Jet
Thats interesting. I've been seeing some Level 3 issues at LINX in London. Thought it was just me...
Most of the stations now have a Windows Media Player stream as well - as does most of the prerecorded video content.
How about...
Bloomberg, ZDnet, Financial Times, BBC, Reuters, USAToday, or Washington Post?
The Google Groups beta uses Atom exclusively as well
Yeah, to pay this month's bandwidth bill...
http://support.bbc.co.uk/support/network/ - BBC Network Diagram. Doesn't show the private peers, of which there are many.
Hum... get a better ISP. I'm saturating an 8mbit pipe with the download in the UK, and a 40mbit connection in the US.
Slashdot is possibly the only place where a demonstration would have to be called a "physical demonstration". Its, like, outside and everything...
Nice, but the BBC site is one of the most popular in the world and gets a lot more traffic that this one hence it is impossible to slashdot.

Netcraft confirms it - they thought ahead and are running Windows.

There are quite a few Flash RSS readers.
Also, (seeing the link in your sig) parts of the BBC site use it - News for timelines (example) and CBBC used XML to pass data around flash games/apps
The best one I've seen yet it the US Election tracker
The max bandwidth stat they use on that page is very theoretical - the actual max is a lot lower.
Try visiting Gamespy or IGN then... interstitals, popups, and flash popovers as well as more banners on the content than we have on our site.
Anyhow, isn't most of the room above the fold used for the image illustrating the story?
The site is designed for 1024x768 and above as most gamers have above average spec gfx cards & monitors.
When setting up a site on Akamai you have to set the origin (I've done many of these!).
This still works, ripe for a DDOS... origin.georgewbush.com
I've got one thats been accepted still down as 'Pending'
Gamers generally have better gfx cards, and monitors - hence are more able to handle a larger res.
Are you trying to look at apple.co.uk? Their UK site is at http://www.apple.com/uk/, I'm not seeing any Akamai issues in the UK.
Pretty slow at 2.4 to 10Kbps, and probably pricey. However - it is proven for the uses you mention.
Shift a whole lot of data, I'd imagine.
