  1. Re:Sounds about right on Comcast, Cox Slow BitTorrent Traffic All Day · · Score: 1

    Sometimes, after using BitTorrent, regardless of what is being transferred, my cable modem's connection to their system will be severed, and it will not return for a time which more or less seems to be directly proportional to the time spent using the torrent. I experience this same phenomenon on Comcast in Houston. I used to be able to resolve it by simply restarting the modem. In the past few days, I find my connection going out more and more frequently and restarting the modem has no effect.

    Shouldn't be a problem - we all know iPhone users have no friends!

  3. extreme mooning on Web Snapshots Are Nabbed for Commercial Uses · · Score: 5, Funny

    When his initial e-mails to the Microsoft blog asking it to remove links to his photo didn't immediately work, Kennedy replaced the image with one of a man engaging in an activity best described as "extreme mooning." Visitors to the Microsoft blog who clicked on the innocent-looking link were guided to the new photo. Says Kennedy, "They pulled down the link within 15 minutes." I can't imagine what image they could possibly be referring to!
  4. Re:Hubble maintenance cancelled. on Hubble's Advanced Camera Suspends Operations · · Score: 5, Insightful

    It seems were killing all the easy ways to learn/discover our universe. I can see why the president wants to put men on Mars. It creates a buzz. No one talks about the pictures the Hubble just took, but a man standing on another planet, now that's news!
