The must be some sort of way to use RFID technology to enhance the pr0ns, in that case it's all good otherwise it's downright evil.

In this region Fairpoint is often the only choice for highspeed internet. If there is another option, it's Comcast who was forging rst packets, and blocking connections willy nilly. I was unable to use a VPN to my office, because Comcast deemed it bad traffic. Beyond that, if you try to use your 800 Billion free hours of AOL or other dialup, often times the phone lines are original copper from the early 1900s and won't even support 56k dialup.

I hate Comcast with a passion and Verizon was horrible. I didn't think there could be anything worse, then Fairpoint came along and showed they were 100% less capable than Comcast or Verizon.

This is the first time Fairpoint has shown any competence in anything since they took over!!!!!!

The kicker is the office probably didn't notice the missing hard drive, he probably told them. He didn't even need to leave a dummy HDD, he just needed to shut up. {of course this is conjecture}

Damn ... another yeast infection

Slashdot has moved its website to be hosted on a Mac emulating Windows to get that fresh feeling from running on IIS

... you know the deal... Desktop Environment... changes... you

Then couldn't the terrorists save a lot of time and bomb everything that is blurred out? I mean no more wondering which one is the federal building... it'll always be the blurred one. Might even let them know about potential targets they hadn't thought of.

Have you ever research cord blood cells? No, its obvious you have not, your entire statement is one piece of information after another. 1.) No stem cells are not easily obtained from adult blood, they can be harvested from bone marrow. This is not an easy process, and certainly one you would rather do without if you have some sort of major disease where you need stem cells. 2.) Very low chance? Its better than no chance. I don't have the percentages here, but its a higher chance than bone marrow and any other ideas out there. 3.) There is no guarantee, but they are working. There aren't many cases of failure that I have read about in my research 4.) So far, though mainly because it hasn't been tried in humans they have regenerated organs in pigs. 5.) Ummm ok and there could be unicorns walking around soon too. 6.) You call it emotional blackmail, others call it providing a service that they are more than willing to pay for. and as for your its ok if done with tax money statements, that is just stupid. Whos money doesn't change the validity of the science. One last point there are many blood cord banks that will take a cord and store it for free, if you are willing to donate it for public use. No one knows the upper limit of storage because the technique hasn't been around for very long, but there are some indications it could be much longer than 10 years. One peer-reviewed article I read made a claim the cells could still be viable 50 years.

Not to mention when the "staffers" were using the email addresses, they were still public people without jobs. Now, IF they continue to use those email addresses now... then that would be an issue

Which with 512Mb of ram on XP it would be. I mean this article is interesting and I don't doubt that it's a true speed difference, but this isn't a great way to test it.

If its like the rest of his administration, he tried to delete it. Its still in the recycle bin, just undelete it.

Come on, most of these people on /. don't even know what a condom is much less actually use one. :-)
