Call me super spoiled. I have 4 monitors at work & home. Both setups have a 30" Samsung in the center. The rest are older smaller monitors scrounged from wherever i could find them. I can't even imagine going back to 2 monitors. I am a developer.

Main 30" monitor. - Dev code GUI
2nd monitor - email
3rd monitor main web research / dev program output while coding
4th live router status / stock widgets / pandora / onenote

I agree. While most people do have a handy microwave, even more have a handy trash can. I always turn my head away and close my eyes and snap that sucker in half in the trash can. Works every time.

I think they are 2 distinct issues that do not combine the way you suggest.

1. If you violate a websites TOS the website can come after you.

2. The info they gain spidering a website is pretty much free for them to use to discriminate against you.

Anything I post on slashdot/FB/any online forum I treat like it is viewable by every future and past employer, insurer, lender, ex girlfriend etc. Anything online will exist forever and if it's not already permanently linked to you, it will be before you die. If that's right or wrong, legal or illegal is really besides the point IMHO.

same specs here and links are NOT ok. weird. I can't even select post anon... weirder

It is possible for an internal DNS server to resolve your mail.example.com to your local 10.x.x.x inside and let your external DNS tell the outside world the external address. If you are a very small shop and don't want to set up an internal dns server you could even just modify the host file on the boxes that need to access the internal servers.

That's a good idea too. To add even more security see the xkcd cartoon. http://xkcd.com/257/

I've been going to the doctor with a family member often and they were constantly taking his blood pressure. So I've been curious about the things that affect blood pressure and according one nurse if you have a full bladder your blood pressure will go up significantly. (Couldn't quickly confirm via google, could a slashdot MD confirm or refute?)

I wonder if the increase in blood pressure do to holding it gives your brain more blood so it functions better. I wonder if there is a way to control the experiment for the blood pressure difference.

I know this is getting off topic but the summary was really offtopic for the article...

Anyway after reading the summary I had the same thought about hexagonal pixels possibly being superior for some applications. However I think the biggest drawback or issue to contend with would be for text display. At best fonts would need to be recreated with a hex display in mind and at worst dithered. Maybe with pixel size approaching the eyes visual limits it won't be as much of an issue.

Gomer79's userid is "43434". Usually I wouldn't cite wiki or feed AC trolls, but it seems apt here.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palindrome

BTW It helps if you know what "userid" means before you use it.

Damn you. now that song will be stuck in my head all day... and my co-workers will think I'm crazy from the unnatural smile my face.
