Is this the same as saying I would swear by my Computer? I think we have all done that until the latest update fixed it all. NOT.

If you tell the joke correctly it solves all the problems.

"There are 10 types of people in this world, those who can count in binary and those who can't."

Still not funny.

Comcast Apologizes For Super Bowl Porn Glitch 526

Posted by kdawson on Tuesday February 03, 2009 @03:59PM from the pay-per-view-malfunction dept.

DrinkDr.Pepper writes "Just after the last touchdown by the Cardinals, with 3 minutes to go in the game, approximately 30 seconds of pornographic material was shown, seen by an unknown number of Comcast customers in Tucson, Arizona who were watching the game in standard definition. Comcast has apologized (they used the word 'mortified') and is issuing a $10 credit to any customer who claims to have been impacted. Various news accounts suggest that the incident was a malicious act, but no one knows how it was done or by whom."

Feed Engadget: Intel accelerates 45nm plans, hitting the market Q4 '07 (engadget.com)

From feed by engfeed on Thursday August 02, 2007 @03:12PM

Filed under: Desktops

Echoes of "take that, haters!" could be heard on Intel corporate Facebook accounts this morning as the company steals some thunder from AMD's recently announced roadmap and fancy fresh antitrust lawsuit. Intel will be launching new four core 45nm Intel Core Extreme "Penryn" processors in Q4 2007, a few months ahead of schedule. The top of the line proc is likely to hit 3.33GHz, run a 1333MHz system bus and hold 12MB of L2 cache. Only about 2-3% of Intel's chips will go 45nm in 2007, but that number should double by around Q2 2008, and it seems Intel needed to accelerate things to head off competition from AMD's upcoming Phenom processors. Prices and other precise launch dates are still a mystery at this point.
