  1. Re:It is ape law! on Student Arrested for Making Videogame Map of School · · Score: 1

    Whenever a young adult does something unthinkably violent the media desperately tries to find a tie to video games. So far they haven't had much luck. But what happens when some deranged lunatic happens to have some FPS games in his room? It's not going to be pretty.

  3. What's next? on Requiem for Usenet · · Score: 1

    When I first got cable internet back in 2000 it was a dream. Since that time rogers has taken away almost every feature that you would expect from an ISP.

    Speeds were cut down, personal webspace was cancelled, monthly bandwidth caps were implemented. Newsgroups were originally hosted by rogers themselves, speeds were great with about 3 day retention. Then they outsourced to giganews and speeds were cut down to 60KB/s but with 45 day retention- a fair tradeoff. Worked well enough but now that's about to be killed off.

    Maybe we were just spoiled but it still sucks, especially when the price has done nothing but go up.
