I mean common when was the last time you've see the CDC use the work Zombies, Walkers, or in-corporeal brain eaters?

I mean common, the video clearly shows that for every 3 female scientists theres only ONE Male scientist. I mean common, we all know the glass ceiling for male scientists exists AND they now the have to stereo type that they are all ruggedly hansom males with chiseled jaws? I mean how much more sexist can you get?

On the other hand if we do expect to live past the impending nuclear doomsday, we must bring this ratio up to a more prodigious ratio of 10 to 1. to facilitate the proper breeding rate to bring back that to the present Gross National Product within say, twenty years. And of course the females would all need to be selected on factors from youth, health, sexual fertility, intelligence, and a cross-section of necessary skills....

Just Sayin....

I can still get to bing.com, yahoo.com, altavista.com, lycos.com, and ask.com. Maybe its not that we are forced to use Google, but that Google has superior products so we choose to use those products.

Ohh nokia you have some of the best april fools jokes around. This is good, i mean you really got me on this one. HAHAHA Ill be talking about this one for years!!

Anyone who thinks that an an Unknown Lamer and not the Slashdot overlords submitted this story, then placed it on the front page, is a lamer.

1. Get them reported on spamhaus.
2. Find out their ISP, find their spam policy and file a complaint. Getting their internet service shut off due to spam will get their attention much quicker than an email, phone call, letter, or firebomb.

I fail to see how this affects Nerds. Wheres the technology angle of this story? I mean really i can goto any news site right now and read this...
Sure Student loans affect Slashdot readers.
Acta might affect Slashdot readers.

But i don't see how this affects technology, and im not really happy with the increase in pure political news creeping in here. If its got a tech angle I dont mind it, but common! Was Gaddafi a tech visionary?

Go get yourself an acetylene torch set and start cutting away.

It comes down to distance and the cable type you are running.

First, I never put a crimp connector on a solid core wire. Two things will happen either the crimp will miss the wire or cut the wire. Either way results in a bad connection esp where there is the possibility of vibration or motion. Solid core cable should be terminated to a punchdown, and network jack. Use proper patch cables from there.
Second If you do want to make a patch cable, use stranded cabling. When you crimp a stranded cable the tines go threw the strands and make contact with many wires. Its much more vibration and motion resistant. Also if a cable run is > 15ft, drop a network jack. Stranded cabling has higher resistance.

Just tell him if he would truly like it named after himself, he needs to be there, in person, to officially open and dedicate the module.
