Not to mention accuracy! I have particularly skinny fingers, and it's still much easier to hit a tiny link on a webpage without zooming if I can use my fingernail.
Bullshit. No on-screen keyboard can replace a good physical keyboard (Swype or not -- it's cool, but definitely not something I want to be using all day), and the G1 is about as good as they come for Androids.
Can just imagine the policeman now, coming up against some criminal that somehow evaded the procedure at birth, dumbfounded that his "taser" doesn't do jack shit. I think this would just lead to even less informed officers as the general rule. Not saying they wouldn't try something like this, quite the contrary, but it reminds me how absurd humans really are.
I don't use a capital letter for certain technical words (even when they start a sentence), making it both harder to programmatically detect a new sentence and more important to do so.
Indeed, so a "click-to-3D" solution like FlashBlock would be great. In fact, FlashBlock's approach could possibly work, although I'm not sure if replacing the canvas element would make the JavaScript blow up. That'd be fun to test.:)
Whatever software you're using for VPN right now (OpenVPN, etc.), just use that. If it already has IPv6 support, then you're good to go. iptables supports it, and if you have a firewall on the "corporate net", then filtering IPv6 is just as easy as filtering IPv4, except with longer addresses. Nothing has to change except the addressing (and a few bits of code underneath the surface, obviously).
And you're pleased with that? 120 KB / sec is not very enjoyable. Beats the socks off 56Kbps or 28Kbps, however. I guess it's all about frame of reference.
Actually, I'm surprised that Google's current IPv6 roll-out (by attaching AAAA records to their domains for qualifying name servers) doesn't include youtube.com yet.
Something great that Blizzard does is have one "always-seeding" peer. It might just be using standard HTTP for that one (haven't looked at it in a really long while), but that seems like a pretty good idea. Run a server somewhere with rtorrent or similar as a service, right alongside apache. Canonical might already be doing this, but I still find it quite interesting.
Why is this modded Funny? Perl can be quite readable. Too many bad programmers have given it a bad rep.
My favorite example of code readability is: go_outside() and play() unless its_raining();
From how annoying and hard to use bookmarks are in Chrome, but how well their "awesome bar" does at figuring things out (including dynamically detecting searchable sites and letting you search them just by typing a few characters of their name and being prompted to hit Tab), I can only conclude that this is exactly what Google was going for in their design.
Competition is fun because we see so many different ways to complete the same task.

... the neural interface seemed a lot closer to reality than practical quantum computing until about 3 mins ago.
So what you're saying is that we couldn't know where we were until we opened our eyes?

Swype isn't available on the Market yet, you lying bastard!

One of the astronomers there told me that while calibrating the main 78m dish he started hearing childrens voices.
Nothing quite like hearing random children's voices to make you feel sane.
Where are the "Funny" mod points when I need them?

Meaning they're going to make a really long and DiCrappy movie about it? This will be interesting.

Goodbye FlashBlock, hello Block3D.
With the tl;dr being: if DirectAccess doesn't do what you want, don't use it, use something else.

As I said earlier in this thread, both Windows Vista and Mac OS X have both had IPv6 installed and enabled by default for quite some time.
Also important to note is that NAT is a poor security method.
Uh, Vista (including Windows 7) and Mac OS X have had IPv6 enabled by default for quite a while now.

Someone mod this guy funny.
For those who don't get it, count to four in binary on one hand. Now repeat for the second hand.
For extra credit, combine the two into a single 10-digit binary number, like the parent did.
This is why on slashdot, you often find the agitated "this sucks" posts modded to +5, while the calm and logical response is modded down.
Oh, so that's why you're modded Insightful? Thanks for clearing that up.

The best part is that Gentoo is the first linked distro on their "Setup" page.
