  1. Re:Great idea! on Australia Waters Down, Delays Internet Filter Policy · · Score: 1

    The Catholics aren't the problem. It's the AoG / Hillsong / Family First people. If these guys can rig Australian Idol, they can probably rally some political support. Let's hope Steve Fielding can damage the brand a bit more.

    What I haven't heard argued much is "If the filter is as reliable as Conroy says it is, what good would having the list do us anyway?" As in, here's a list of things you can't access, feel free to test the filter.

    A better example would be Vanilla Ice and Queen. If you're too young, move on quickly.

    We need him to take over Defense or Foreign Affairs. I need a press conference that starts 'US forces give the nod.'

    Last I heard, Colin Hay is still touring.

  10. Re:I log into machines over RS-232 daily. on MeeGo, Zero To VT320 In Seventeen Seconds · · Score: 1

    I've seen DB25 used for for serial, parallel and SCSI. It gets around. Right now I'm trying to get thoughts of a DB25 parallel, 10Base2 network adapter out of my head.

  11. Digital on MeeGo, Zero To VT320 In Seventeen Seconds · · Score: 1

    At least they've used the 'Digital' icon right for once. For added value, he needs to install something like simh on the netbook and run a PDP emulator.

    Ah, complex laws. They have real and imaginary parts.

    Yeah, it's worse than the old days when they'd hijack a train and take it to Cuba.

    Another reason for BigPond: you can't get DSL connected by anyone else, but BigPond miraculously can. Go with them and churn after the first few months. I've seen it happen before.

    That's what I want, a NASCAR smart phone. Better tires, shocks, roll-cage and sponsor markings. I bet you could sell tons of these phones.

    Actually, moderation is broken as well. I tried to give you a +1 Funny and now I get a separate page for this post. Hmmm, maybe /. has started duping old features as well as stories.
