Why not just pony up about $69/mo...and get a business connection for your home.
You have Cox, yeah, they are better than my cable internet company, but cox isn't in my area. So your advertisement is useless to me. In addition, 70$/month is a lot of money for me, I pay 40$/month for internet and 50$/month for my phone. So at over 1K$ per year, I'm thinking I don't need to pay more for internet. Perhaps I'm ok with not being a digital glutton. Yeah the all you can eat buffet is nice, but I don't NEED it.
Ultimately consensus is worthless in science because it's so often been wrong.
That is the biggest troll comment I've read on the internet all day. Insightful? I hope/. bans the locality your are from. A good scientists strives to find the truth everyday. [s]he does this by the scientific method (form hypothesis, do experiment to test, repeat). Engineers take these truths, and design usefull things around them like power plants, cell phones, bridges, houses...basically everything that makes you happy every fucking day. Unless you are posting this from a log cabin by smoke signal, you are using something that scientists spends decades learning about first. I'm so fueled with rage right now, that I'm going to go take a shower in napalm to cool off.
While many agree with you, it is part of an effort to encourage good conduct outside of school (no fights, drugs, etc). If it is brought to the schools attention that while outside of school you are undergoing bad behavior of certain natures then the school may attempt to punish you. This is brought to the kids attention as part of the "SR&R" (student's rights and responsibilities). It was this way at my HS. It seemed ridiculous at the time, but take a second to understand- most of these bad kids don't strong parental involvement. If they did, they wouldn't even get into this situation.
Some teachers will tell you that through middle school, you can tell just about how well a kid will do in your class at parent teacher night. (i.e. Parental involvement at young ages is imperative.
Ok guy you first need to stop getting your "news" from the Daily show. Last time I checked Stewart isn't exactly a news guy, but humor you a bit:
You are write that John Stewart is not a news anchor, but the fact is, you will learn more in terms of facts and insight ( as rated in information/minute) watching this comedy news show than you will from watching about 5 of the programs on fox news (Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, Steve Doocy & Greta, Megan Kelly, Mike Huckabee).
The military uses "m" codes which are supposedly more resistant to jamming. With the exception of the nation guard, they shouldn't really care about how bad gps is in the US. In fact, wouldn't it be better for fighting Terrorism if there was no more GPS!
I don't think you understand what they mean by clipping in this sense. In JPEG compression, the DCT is performed, the matrix is formed, the coefficients are scaled, quantized(clipped), and then Losslessly compressed. The scaling/clipping(from quantization) IS the core of the low/med quality JPEG compression compression. It is not like "clipping" in the audio sense where it is horribly distorted due to over amplification, the quantization is intentional and in DCT space.
Also, as stated elsewhere on this forum, when a browser resizes a picture, the cache is not recompressed, which is when this intentional dithering becomes apparent.
Yeah, the real reason for the "its/it's" rule is simply because the other general rules collide and result in this ambiguity. So a rule had to be made to resolve it:P, and that is why it's hard to learn english.
The Rich? um no. The rich simply play more, and can go to collage whether they earned it or not. If you are poor and get good grades you can goto collage on scholarships and financial aid. If you are anyone and get great grades you can goto collage on scholarships alone. You clearly have no clue what you are talking about.
Sony should have left the "Other OS" feature on and just "unsupported." There was a link on/. last time this came up to a black hat conference on the trend of gameOS hacking. Sony PS3 enjoyed the longest time in recently history from launch till being compromised to be able to run custom "home brew" and pirated software (3.16 years). If you date it from when they removed the "Other OS" feature, it falls right in line with every other hacked game system (Xbox/360, game cube, wii, ps2, dreamcast...). Bottom line, if you don't allow people to install linux, enough people will be motivated to break your system to do just that, also opening the can-of-worms that is pirated software.
I don't even have to click the link- That is exactly what I was thinking. In fact it makes trackers jobs easier. Even if the user refused all cookies and flash cookies etc, a browser is almost uniquely identifiable by all the other stuff it sends with each request: plugin versions, browser ID strings, ip, every thing you don't allow to be sent, and now this. Every element you add to this vector increases an intelligent company's ability to track you weather you like it or not.
At this jury trial, you'd have to convince a bunch of people that you had good reason to trust this "order." I'm guessing "because he said so" wouldn't cut it. Even if Obama himself showed up on my doorstep and asked me to kill someone, I would still ask "why?" first. Perhaps, there is a reason (or 2) I didn't join the military.
Aside from wiping your facebook.com cookies... As long as you explicitly log out, no 3rd party site can log you into facebook. Otherwise that would be a huge security hole on multi-user/public computers. People would use that exact code to connect to facebook as the most recent logged-in user.
hahaha, I do that all the time. I see a debate I feel like I've already seen a dozen times, with some Famous but unqualified person talking for one side and just tune it out. Sometimes I feel like I am far from the target audience of the NightlyNews.
I don't know any of them but "Braid." I bought it for the xbox 360 and it was awesome. Easily worth 5-10$ alone (that is if you like that sort of puzzle game).
Possibly not. Your local computer may respond quite quickly with either "there is noting on port 80 at all", or "yes you have a web server running, but 404 not found, this page does not exist"
HAHAHAHAHAHAa I come from a family of geeks, so it wasn't until I got married, and met my in-laws that I realized that not everyone can edit their hosts file, delete registry settings, and set up an Apache web server.

Dear TSA,
I don;t like to be touched by fellow human beings, but I do LOVE being bombarded by carcinogenic ionizing radiation.

how do they get their statistics?

I definitely think we need more Fight Club references on /.
You do realize it was a joke, don't you?

WTF are you talking about. Clearly in the US this gets replaced with "African-American Out."
