  10. Re:Awesome.. on Gigabit Speeds At Home In the US · · Score: 1

    Both NetZero and Juno has extremely similar websites and both give me "Based on the phone number provided, we do not have any local access numbers in your area."

    Unless things changed since I searched three years ago, there's no choice at all where I live.

    It's even worst where I live. It's either cable via Télébec or dial-up via Télébec.

    If you're splitting a gigabit connection between 20-200 users, better go with a wired solution. Faster, more secure, less interference, less problems.

    How hard can it be to have 200 wi-fi channels not interfering with each other?

    Slashdot should auto-coralize the links.

  17. Re:already slashdotted? on Acer Dual-Screen, Multitouch Laptop Leaks Out · · Score: 1

    An AC above suggested RapidShare, I had no idea what it was. Just replace "RapidShare" with a Slashdot mirror server and you'll be able to control everything, including HTTP headers.

  18. Re:already slashdotted? on Acer Dual-Screen, Multitouch Laptop Leaks Out · · Score: 1

    They should parse for links, make a temporary copy on RapidShare or something similar, then remove the copy after 24 hours and put back the original links into the article.

    Proper HTTP headers in the RapidShare version would let search engines know it's only a temporary page.
