On another less funny note, think about a system where laws are constantly added to the books, but rarely repealed/struck down. Take that limit at infinity, or even in 25 years.
I knew there would be someone around here that does their homework on this stuff. I would like to add that CBD is one of the less desirable psychoactives in cannabis. It is believed to be the one mostly responsible for the tired, "burn out" feeling as opposed to THC's "high" feeling. Since modern cannabis has been bred for desirable qualities, no you don't find a lot of CBD in it. One factor in any drug, legal or not is side effects. How much of a dosage of CBD do you need, and is it worth having the mentality of Spicoli for the benefits, considering all alternatives?

OK. I've seen the posts about dowsing on the original article. At least there were no names there.
But this is Slashdot. You are going down in history supporting dowsing. You might need to find another web site.
What totally blows me away though, is that these posts are getting modded +1 Interesting.
BTW, this guy can make US$1,000,000 (pinky to lip million) if he can prove his dowsing. You better find him and tell him, maybe he will share some with you! OMG!

Bit like "witchcraft." Come on, if we could cast spells and shit, don't you think everyone would be doing it? We'd all be Harry Potter and Potterettes.
As this story has been making its rounds, I've been wondering how hard it would be to DoS this system. The Sandvine boxes need to inspect all traffic, and when they see something that matches a heuristic, they send RSTs in both directions. Deep packet inspection hasn't been totally figured out yet, it still requires quite a bit of CPU horsepower. I would assume it takes even more horse power if a match is found and packets need to be generated and injected. This is probably not noticeable on real clients as TCP backoffs and timeouts are involved so an offending BitTorrent connection is not initiated that often. So! Write a client that open fake BitTorrent like connections, but a ton of them a second. Once those Sandvine boxes start melting down and the whole network is impacted I can see that bypass switch getting thrown pretty quick. It takes two to tango in this fashion, so you need another endpoint. I recommend www.comcast.net:80. The web server will not understand your BitTorrent packet, but the network will. By the time their webserver shuts the connection, the Sandvine boxes will already be sending their RST packets, assuming they are still functioning.
I don't think this link will survive the test of time, but there is currently a thread on Nanog about this with a lot of juicy details (and opinions of course).
That would be the purpose of the portal. The "translations" would not be perfect. But that would be how you could tell where someone was "from" online. That would also be when your exchange rate happened for your little economic problem.
This is one the biggest scam in business history. You get some company to buy into a huge software package, hire armies of consultants, schedule months of meetings, and they end up with something worse than what they had before, only poorer.
But you have to admit it would be much easier if you put all the at&telcos under the same roof.:)
I imagine all we hear outside about China and the "firewall" is similar to what "an outsider" might hear about file sharing networks. People are getting sued, omg, and ISPs are throttling torrent traffic, and movie studios are poisoning downloads and tracking and guess what... you can still get anything you want. You can still get movies the night they are released. You can find the latest CD. You can find it on the internet, that's what it does.
Well in that case, the new internet is here, it's IPv6. We are waiting for it to be adopted. So even if you came up with a new perfecter internet, there would still be a time period where it will have to be adopted. This sucker is too big to reload every router and reboot them with the new code at 0 GMT on Friday ya know.
Yearrr! That be the finest useless application me every laid me eyes on! Can't wait to show me mate, his wench will be enjoyin watching 'im fling around her notebook fer sure!
I think you need to brush up on the difference between lossy and lossless encoders. Presto, your music would sound like crap after being compressed 4 times with different compressors.
As far as I know, it has nothing to do with cost. There is a spectum so wide for data tx and rx, and instead of dividing it in half for equal upstream and downstream, someone (smart) noticed that the nature of the average internet is about 10:1 down to up ratio. Small requests large replies. Go check your system stats and see if I am right. On my system right now, I have 360.48MB down, and 37.91 MB up. It is purely arbitrary, if you can get 56k up and 5Mb down, you could just as easily move the specturm allocation around and get 5Mb up and 56k down. This goes for DSL or cable or your old v42.bis modem. They don't give you more upstream because upstream is more expensive, it's because the average user will benefit more from the current model. Now give me a config option with a slider to let me control this and we have something. It would be nice to set it 50/50 for P2P or 20/80 for seeding.

Figuring out this complex ruleset and learning to optimize your playstyle around it is a very valuable skill that does apply to real life.

Yes FPGAs are easy to program, but there is a tradeoff: speed. And since this is a brute force application, you probably don't want to use FPGAs.

Nothing funny about it. I second the thought.
