My point is that those different services need to be split or similar services for each tested and stated with specifics mentioned for each. Verizon was simply an example.

The different connections need to be split.

For example, Verizon needs to have:

Verizon DSL 768kbps - 1Mbps
Verizon DSL 1.5Mbps - 3Mbps
Verizon DSL 4Mbps - 7Mbps
Verizon DSL 10Mbps - 15Mbps
Verizon FIOS 15Mbps
Verizon FIOS 25Mbps
Verizon FIOS 50Mbps

Obviously a low end DSL connection is not going to be the same as those who can order the 10-15Mbps DSL connection. And it is likely that the DSL 10-15Mbps connection is going to be different from the FIOS 15Mbps.

To group all of those connections into one Verizon line is completely misleading. And if they didn't take measurements from all of those connections, then then that makes the results even more suspect as the graph doesn't specify what type of connection they chose to test with.

To whom it may concern,

I can no longer browse using "http://slashdot.org/index.pl?issue=20110122" for all of the articles on that date. This is severely irritating to say the least. If I can't have that functionality back, then I require the ability to load either 25, 50, or 100 stories at a time from recent to whenever the 100th story was posted.

Thank you for your time.

I typically follow the guideline that the right and center lanes are for slow people or those needing to turn off soon and the left lane is for passing/speeding; however, there are a few roads I break this guideline myself if the following applies:

- the road has a few left exits and I need to take one of those left exits myself
- heavy traffic where people (such as myself) with horrible depth perception can cause accidents
- traffic is moving between the right, center, and exit lanes frequently

To remedy the situation where I may not be moving fast enough for the person behind me, I will attempt to speed up or slow down to where the person has a gap to pass me on the right. I will match my speed to the gap in hopes they get the idea this is where they should pass me if they wish to move quicker than I am willing.

Driving exclusively in the left lane was a taboo I was uncomfortable with until after a series of close incidents that I didn't wish to repeat. I have since found peace with driving in the left lane on these particular roads and leave the dangers of the center and right lanes to those wishing to pass me.

I understand this, however, what I attempted to say was why they didn't think to implement this feature instead?

(current use of the code below and defaults to h264 which chrome will ignore or webm which IE will ignore in total)
<video src="movie.ogg" controls="controls">
your browser does not support the video tag
</video>

Specifies type so browser knows how to(or if it can) process it:
<video videotype="webm" src="..." controls="controls">

or

<video videotype="h264" src="..." controls="controls">

The whole point of this would be for them to still be able to publish the video tag as part of HTML5 and have room to expand upon it as needed.

I fail to understand why noone has mentioned the possibility of the HTML5 video tag implementing a "videotype" attribute with possible values being WebM or H264 (with the possible future expansion into other options).

Seems people have forgotten to mention (or a simple reminder) that the Humble Bundle 2 was offering 11 games for less than $10 bucks ... ALL with NO DRM!!!

I, too, was looking into purchasing some Ubisoft games, but instead of dealing with their DRM while paying 50+ bucks for a single game, I found myself getting pushed toward these indie developers who are selling non-DRM games of decent quality on the cheap! Even better, is that the Humble Bundle 2 had the option for me to decide to pay more later to reward the developers if, as I'm playing through these games, I found the developers did an awesome job and deserve more compensation for their hard work for a job well done (rather than being ripped off from the start if it in fact ending up being a poorly developed game)!

If you some how haven't heard of the Humble Bundle 2, you can research about it and sign up to hear about the next Humble Bundle release here.

I was for Palin up until this announcement too, but mainly because I believe in drilling and refining more oil instead of importing (good for the trade deficit, generating jobs, and saving your pocket book at the gas station until we can more efficiently decrease our dependence on oil and assuming drilling regulations and incident punishments are upheld). I, like most people, have a hard time finding people to match my preferences (pro-education improvements, pro-stem cell research, pro-choice, pro-tax cuts, pro-nuclear power, anti death row prisoner rights so they can be used for medical research or other beneficial purposes, anti-forever type welfare programs, anti-global police, pro-defense military and military research, pro-space exploration, lower national deficit, pro-capitalism with regulation against monopolies not for, etc)

I really wanted to believe that her stupidity on the news was simply biasness and journalism twisting her image, but I read her post on facebook about wikileaks and realized it was all true. My oil drilling cheerleader is definitely not the brightest crayon in the box.
