  1. MXC on "Crowd Farm" to Collect Energy? · · Score: 1

    I am picturing sinkers and floaters from mxc on the dance floor. lol.

  2. Re:This is one reason on Deep Packet Inspection and Net Neutrality · · Score: 1

    If I were going to sniff traffic, I would save the encrypted traffic. I would have a 3 day buffer, so I could go back and save any traffic I want into a more permanent location. Then in 10-15 years, decrypt it instantaneously using my desktop computer.

  3. Couldn't we build... on Canadians Vie for Space Elevator Victory · · Score: 1

    a massive structure of granite rock up there, and once we get close then build something people in the X-Prize have thought of. By massive, I mean... (everast height)*X = height to space, X times the size of everast Big.

  4. Planetary Energy (plenigy) on Tilting At Windmills · · Score: 1

    Lets find a way to harness the energy of planets/comets flying through space. Sure it would be difficult, but if harnessed, we would have enough energy to... ignore discussions like these since windmills only contribute less than 0.1 percent of the power consumed in the U.S. We need a real solution without giving our planet stale air from the amount of windmills needed to be a real viable one stop shop energy source.

  5. Fitness Dorks on Tilting At Windmills · · Score: 1

    Why can't we harness the energy all the people who run on a daily basis use? Lets take advantage of all the self-absorbed fitness dorks.

  6. Bubble Gum Theory on New Gravity Theory Dispenses with Dark Matter · · Score: 1

    If one pictures our galaxy in terms of these little gravitational particles, 'gravitons'. Who's to say they do not follow the laws of entropy. Picture a large glass container of tiny bubble gum pieces that gets dropped and broken in the center of our galaxy. These tiny pieces will scatter from the center of our galaxy outwards. It is not the presence of these particles creating gravity, but adversly it is the absence. In areas where there are few 'gravitons', there is less effects of gravity... The 'gravitons', in a sense, push objects towards the 'low density' areas created the feeling of gravity.

  7. War on Flushing the Net Down the Tubes · · Score: 2, Insightful

    What happens when a few rouges from one culture enter another culture against their will... War.

    I personally believe the internet is worth fighting for, perhaps not physically, but logically.

  8. If I were Apple... on Video iPod Oct 12? · · Score: 1

    1. I would have money (college student) 2. I would offer movies compressed and scaled down for a 3 inch screen. They could be the same size as an mp3. I would bite for something like that. Most movies can be watched in theater, the others can be with me at school while I'm bored between classes. I would even want movies for my iPod nano via an update. How many others are waiting for their iPod order to be 'processed'. I ordered mine 9/30/05, its been 4 business days thus far just for processing.

  9. Local Telco's are already into VoIP and IPTV on Undisclosed Markets to Participate in IPTV Trial · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Allendale Communications in Allendale, Michigan is already providing IPTV. Pannaway is providing the 'triple play' solution with voice, data, and tv at the local telco.

    I think it's good that local telco's are adapting so quickly to stay in the race. With the lines already there for use, it makes it easy to dominate the local area. Personally, I would like to see more competition, instead of one massive provider ruling the IPTV market --not that companies like microsoft are bad for anyone... [sorry, low blow]

  10. screw sbc's speeds on 8Mbit Broadband to Become Available in the UK · · Score: 1

    Microsoft and SBC are supposedly teaming up to provide IP television someday. SBC has test sites in Missouri running adsl2+, reporting speeds of 24 mbit connections...

    Wonderful, the telco Allendale Communications is already offering IP television with adsl 2+, with actual production speeds of 19-23 mbits. However, end users are limited to 2 mbits for surfing and the rest is used for IP telvision.

  11. I can get screwed by an isp... on 8Mbit Broadband to Become Available in the UK · · Score: 1

    or I can work for an ISP. Regardless, the ISP I work for is offering 20 mbit connections to customers using adsl2+, however, most of that bandwidth limited for use with the ip video we are providing.

  12. ISP is a median on Canadian High Court Says ISPs Don't Owe Royalties · · Score: 1

    An individuals house could be a median for friends and family to download illegal files... Therefore that individual cannot be held responsible for anyone elses actions. Therefore, how can they sue a households owner for the childs copyright infringment.

  13. new logo on Should Hackers Get Their Own Logo? · · Score: 1

    cool

  14. Re:Link? on BitTorrent Blamed for Matrix2 Downloads · · Score: 1

    Of course you will watch it in theater over downloading any version out there. I personally can't wait for the imax version of Matrix. So I heard Matrix Tres is going to be out in imax the very same day and the regular out-dated theaters!

  15. Re:Slashdotting of BitTorrent on BitTorrent Blamed for Matrix2 Downloads · · Score: 1

    It also mentions that BitTorrent works on a ratio, so it is not exactly download/upload. Also, I found when there was nobody to upload to, mine also went fast. I did however notice, once I started uploading to all, my download speed dropped also...
