  1. Re:It just seems to be a question of pride... on Internet Power Struggle Reaching Climax · · Score: 2, Interesting
    For Brazil to communicate to Europe or Asia, how do the packets get there. They go through the US on OUR networks that we PAID for...

    As a test, I ran a traceroute from Bulgaria to Brazil. The packets go through New York, Atlanta, Orlando, and Miami. How is that not using what WE paid for???????

    I have worked all over the world with the internet. A few months ago I was in the Republic of Georgia. To get to Kazakstan it STILL went through the US.

    com.com is registered to CNET networks. Same as news.com.....

  3. 3rd party controllers on MS Seeks Entrance Fee to XBox Accessory Market · · Score: 1

    For the current xbox, you can get third party controllers that can give you an automatic advantage over your competitors. As an example, some people use turbo controllers in Halo 2 online so they can shoot various weapons as fast as possible without having to pull the trigger. Maybe MS is doing this to keep the playing field level for gamers???

  4. Re:Stupid comparison on The "Return" of Java Discussed · · Score: 1

    Still a stupid comparison, but:

    +microsoft +.net = 6,810,000
    +sun +java = 5,360,000

  5. Re:still a pulse on Living Without a Pulse · · Score: 1

    so you are saying that if a doctor or a paramedic puts a stethoscope on the beating heart, (which we both agree to), they won't hear anything?? I understand there might not be anything in the wrist, but what about the patients chest?!?!?

  6. still a pulse on Living Without a Pulse · · Score: 3, Informative

    from the article:
    "LVADs are not designed to replace the heart but are implanted alongside it under the rib cage."

    Therefore your heart is still there beating. This is just a supplement to it.

  7. Tech Schools vs Geeks on Tech Training Schools Going Bust · · Score: 5, Insightful

    In my experience the better tech people are the ones that grew up playing with the stuff as a hobby, not the ones who heard that there are money/jobs available in the field and then sign up at a tech school. I'm not going to cry for the tech schools. Go get a CS degree instead.
