  1. Re:Goodnight, Sweet AP. on AP Will Sell You a "License" To Words It Doesn't Own · · Score: 1, Funny

    Step on some toes of some retired folks and we could have the RIAAAPAARP!

    Find a Five Guys. Best burgers I've found. http://www.fiveguys.com/

    Home theater would be great. Then there wouldn't be any wires for the cat to chew on!

    And use PPPoE: Palantir to Palantir Protocol over Ethernet.

  5. I don't think this will work on D.C. Commuters to be Scanned With Infrared Cameras · · Score: 0

    I don't think this will work, unless you require people to drive with their windows down...
    Thermal cameras see heat, and will just see the temperature of the glass, and not the heat of the occupants of the vehicle.
    Seems I remember a Mythbusters episode where an infrared camera was defeated by a simple plane of glass.
    This action will probably be a waste of money as the cameras will not be able to peer into a car with the windows rolled up.

  6. Re:Has it ever NOT happened? on GTA IV Delay Rumoured · · Score: 1, Insightful

    So would this delay be used to fix any bugs ferreted out in QA, or would this delay be for purely financial reasons?

  7. Re:Say what? on Internet Tax Imminent? · · Score: 0

    A bank paid money (and possibly rent) to place an ATM machine. Most all banks I know of don't charge their own customers for the privilege of drawing money out of the machine. Banks choose to charge customers of OTHER banks to help pay the cost of setting up and operating the machine.

    The bank is a private entity and is free to charge for its services. You are free to use another bank.

  8. Re:Fine: Define email on Senator Warns of Email Tax This Fall · · Score: 1, Informative

    Probably because going across the street crossed a LATA line, a line that was defined after the AT&T breakup. Anything that crosses a LATA line is defined as long distance, even if it is in the same area code.

    Oh come on! Water that's been through so many kidneys has to be pure!
