That's basically the one which made me only sign petitions for the troll factor from then on.

I took these petitions seriously once. ONCE.

They just announced to all potential "deranged gunmen" that they shouldn't use the "active shooter" phrases on the internet, or cover their tracks if they do so. Good job.

I bet they used a GUI interface using Visual Basic!

I guess it's time to find out which handguns are most popularly used for crime and then start a company selling brass catchers for them. And then the government will ban sales of brass catchers.

This just in, Fox News is produced using video cameras, the same technology used by terrorists to create beheading videos!

If you're a bit more daring, you can check out sites such as mp3car.com or other "carputer" resources and try to roll your own. Looking at mp3car.com now, I am slightly disappointed. They used to be more of a "how to" with a shop section, and they seem to have transformed into a shop with a forums section.

Back in the late 90s, I knew people who would leave their modems connected overnight on a dedicated line, with a download manager running, just to be sure they got the latest copy of whatever it was they were after.

Slowing up your downloads is just going to make people take longer to grab something, or they'll busily try to find a way to circumvent your "protection." Or, they'll move on to some other service or method, partially collapsing your business model.

The Zetas will have to worry about the other cartels coming for them and their allies if the names are released.

I have a 1 year old 2TB drive, a 1TB drive, and two 500GB drives, all SATA. I also have a 750GB external drive. The external isn't as handy as it used to be, only for the fact that my current case has a SATA dock built into the top, and my system supports hot-swapping of hard drives. Unless I need to be sure I can access files on another machine, I can just plug in one of the spare drives as needed.

According to their website, they don't seem to offer a price guarantee even on preorders which drop in price before shipping.

According to one of the articles I'd seen, his status as a Fellow of the Harvard School of Ethics would have allowed him access to JSTOR. If true, one wonders why he went through all the trouble.

An update on the article points out that his claim of being a Reddit co-founder is in dispute.

I unsubscribed from the Demand Progress mailing list because of their whitewashing of the charges against him.

I've never used 'em. I don't use the self checkout unless I'm only getting a couple items, either, and god help you if you want to get beer. Honestly, the checkout lines are never a problem at our Stop and Shop so there's no real added convenience to using it for me.
