The post is about a "war" between OSS camps and how even though they've buried the hatchet an even bigger threat looms. I believe I appropriately intertwined both tomes.

You aint lyin!

It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. All I know is gimmee mines!

Except the monopoly was granted for something BESIDES network connectivity. AT&T and ComCast have used resources granted for one purpose to monopolize another. The new purpose is wholly unregulated but benefits from the previous monopoly status. This SHOULD be regulated as long as they are using the resources they gained from the government.

Wait!? They just released the remastered version. When did Rise Of the Triad 13 come out?

What's the oldest known form? I'll start with the HP 3314A Function Generator.

OH there is controversy all right. Just call a Canadian an American and he'll punch you despite the fact all Canadians are technically Americans.

At the very least they should be restricted from overselling capacity. They've been doing that for years and playing the odds that their back end wouldn't get hammered. Then Netflix happened and their back end was getting saturated all the time. But instead of upgrading their back end to meet the demand they had sold to their customers they approached Netflix and demanded THEY pay for the upgrade. Their network magically improved overnight once Netflix capitulated. No one seems to want metered internet usage but it just might be what is needed to balance the cost for the ISP. We pay for electricity per watt, it just makes sense that we pay for usage per GB.

Jumpers? Lazy bastards...We used wire wrap.

Systemd has coalesced with /. beta and has begun rampaging on the Seattle coast line. Fishmongers are running for their lives but have as yet still not dropped a cod!

In that case he is fortunate all he got was a DMCA notice.

IANAL but my understanding is that as long as he isn't charging or selling ad space on the page and all of the artwork was digitally created by him and not copied directly he should be clear from almost any type of legal action since it is for "personal" use. I admit I didn't visit the site so I don't know if these conditions were met. Now if he has the Nintendo logo and Mario is bit for bit identical they can go after him for trademark and trade dress infringement but not copyright as he hasn't "published" anything.

The Shakers have not been doing it for thousands of years.

We should all go to the blood and circuses together
