It is. That's more like a 250 or 500 KV line.

If i recall an event that happened a few years back, a spam master (pharmamatster or something like that) claimed he could bring down the internet, and was successfull at knocking part of it down.

While I am hard pressed to find a reason to USE such a power, maybe the availability of the power might be a good idea; a digital form of Mutually Assured Destruction.

Plus, it would prevent Skynet from ever taking control of the world.

It's cheating because they are abusing an ILLEGAL performance enhancing drug. All the users i knew of did not have prescriptions.

Caffeine is not illegal, so those who have a good moral base are still on the same playing field as those who do not.

I'm not sure about the long term, but i have witnessed first hand the same person studying with and without Adderall and the difference is scary. When on Adderall knowledge retention becomes increased ten fold and immunity to distractions becomes perfect. It reminds me of movies where you see super geniuses recite any line from a book read in the past.

Any chance you go to a Florida school? Because as soon as i saw this article, i was going to post exactly what you said.

I can count at least half of my BSEE graduating class that used Adderall for every test, and they always got better grades because of it.

I'm not going to argue it won't hurt them down the road, but guess what, their drug inflated GPAs are getting them jobs now in this bad economy while the honest are struggling. How is this not a form of cheating?

Sounds like a repeat of DVDXCopy. That tool only let you make one copy i believe; and it lost the legal battle.

Not Off topic. Anon is correct. This was on Slashdot before. This is a repeat news item and a waste of Slashdot space. Can the reviewers wake up please?

Glad someone beat me to posting this. I was going to call sheninagans as not only does T-mobile support tethering, if you call and ask them, they will walk you through setting it up, as they did with me. Something is fishy with google's claim.

I had the same problem. Although, i like my solution better.

This has been done for many years. And it's not X-10. X-10 would be way too slow and unreliable. This system is called Light-O-Rama

The gutter cleaner is not the latest. It has been around for years and has already been seen on wholesale surplus selloff sites like woot.com

oops, i had a coworker switch which article i was looking at while i was afk. Ignore this.

1. That's not a vacuum model. It's an irobot Create which is just a platform to build hobby robots off. It has no cleaning power at all.

2. This is an old video. I mean OLD; years old. It was done by a few geeks asked to demo what the irobot create could do, when they were first introduced to the market. That's all, no 'hamster cleaning' market in mind.

Bad slashdot, bad. Check your sources before publishing a story.
