My old Jetta TDI worked great (great for highway, good for city), but the new Jetta TDI Hybrid makes me drool! http://www.dasautomagazine.com/2012/March/Volkswagen-Hybrid.php

Captain Sully was also the last person off the plane http://abcnews.go.com/Travel/story?id=7793478&page=1 I'd call him more than just "lucky."

On the other hand if they google William Roehl it will likely turn up this Slashdot post.

SSH Tunneling by far: http://www.debian-administration.org/article/38/Tunneling_connections_securely_with_SSH

If that's what you frequently hear, you should consider listening to less bias sources. Just the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve will last 36 days: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategic_Petroleum_Reserve

The current estimate of "undiscovered" reserves would last about 1000 days without rationing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_reserves_in_the_United_States
Oil Shale adds another estimated 100,000 days (270yrs) of reserve http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_reserves_in_the_United_States#Oil_shale
I'd add Natural Gas (which many cars/trucks can convert to use) to the list. Supplementing that with electric vehicles where appropriate, and the US looks in good shape.

So an Air Superiority escorts a Multirole fighter...what's your complaint again?

My advice is: GIVE IT UP!

If Linux kernel followed the same release mentality of Mozilla, we'd have Linux 10.3 already.

Windows applications may support a subset of remote management, but unfortunately there is often the case that one needs a desktop application to fully configure an app. On Linux the default is text file configs modifiable via CLI, whereas Windows' applications _expect_ you to have a GUI. Until that expectation changes, RDP will be the most powerful remote management available on Windows.

If you want AT&T's network but don't like the price, H2OWireless uses ATTs network and has better prices than ATT prepaid...but don't bother calling tech support unless you have 3 hours to burn (hiring a single person for tech support calls must be how they keep costs low!).

If you have a GSM device, just pickup a prepaid sim card when you get in the US. Either T-mobile Pre-paid or H2O Wireless (uses AT&T's network). Check which 3G frequency your device uses and save the $$$ from buying a new device. I've used both T-Mobile Monthly Pre-paid and H2OWireless and would recommend T-mobile for reliability, but both work well.

I'm curious how you enjoy using an iPad for ebooks? After 10 hours on an LCD at work, I find reading an ebook on an eInk device preferable.

Debian includes access to a "non-free" official repository that his non-open-source drivers. Please don't refer to the Debian Foundation as "young ideal[ists]." They've done a great job balancing idealism and pragmatism.

PCs are not an "open, documented hardware platform." Here's an interesting thread from 2004 about this same issue debated at Debian http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2004/02/msg00136.html

Sounds like these publishers don't know their market. I only buy ebooks because they are inexpensive. At relatively close prices I'd prefer a physical book (where at least I won't be restricted by the publisher's "loan" policy!).

So now I can reach Comcast's bandwidth cap in in 2 seconds, huzzah!
