    Thats scary outlook man. I've got discounted connection, yes, but there was not a word about not being able to access major .coms, but only selected once and of course ISP's donated and syndicated portals.

    but feel free to slap me -1:Troll, it is really troll-like and unimportant that in some unimportant countries they have blocked all major .coms just for the benefit of local ISPs portal.

    Did you read my post? Maybe in the UK, there you probably have got many competing ISPs so they can't do that for the fear of losing marketshare.

  4. Can't open many .com, .org sites on Net Neutrality Being Examined by FTC · · Score: -1, Troll

    Here in Europe we can't reach some of the US .com, .org or even .gov websites, I only know about them because they "exist" on archive.org. There is no traffic limit, they simply cut the DNS for them on port 54. You can't even resolve the domain for particular IP, so you get nothing, you may think that those webs do not exist. The problem is that ISP provider is running their own websites like "clix.pt" and advertising on them. Why allow you to spend some time off their network? They cut the competition off. Slashdot.org still "works" so far, probably it was not deemed threatning enough for them, but if more users will ==spend significant time== on Slashdot.org they will cut off Slashdot.org too. If there is not competing ISP then they can do pretty much everything they want.

  5. Re:Me, Myself & I on Pro MySQL · · Score: 0

    Keep the lang unregulated and free of expression, if someone thinks to use "myself" instead of "me" then let him do that, I can tell you, in Germany we suffer hard by those lang regulations, there are many cases when you and your common sense would use something else then what those regulators wants you to use, if you make mistake then you are doomed, english is good for not being a strictly regulated language, so keep it that way please.

  6. The heart of the DB on Pro MySQL · · Score: 0

    Grab those from MySQL "bdb\btree\*.*" and you've got pretty much the core of the speed and reliability of the fast indexed database of whatever.

    If you can't recognize 100% scam, look at the site, they have patented "machine", but they were unable to suficiently prove it. Of course they are touching the 100% efficiency, they are at 99.6%, well, may be 99.8% (presume they are good at it) LOL

  10. Honesty? or playing VCs hard? on Irish Company Claims Free Energy · · Score: 0

    The company is refusing any offers for investment or licensing rights. They intend to pay all expenses involved in the jury review of the technology. This is to dissuade any claims that the company is fraudulently creating a spectacle to raise money from: http://pesn.com/2006/08/21/9500298_Steorn_free_ene rgy_gauntlet that might stir those fraud speculations a bit
