May I also be the first to ask why is this story on Slashdot, and why is it a weeks late?

3 dupes already this shift. That's what happens when your Sunday "editor" doesn't read the site the rest of the week.

Except you need a version with at least 8MB flash for dd-wrt to support ipv6. I just spent weeks trying to get ipv6 to work on my WRT54GL with 4MB flash, but none of the official (or unofficial) builds I could find supported ipv6. I finally just broke down this afternoon and picked up an Asus RT-N16 with 32MB flash and am uploading DD-WRT as we speak.

that's the SSH key. The article is talking about the SSL key used by the embedded web server, ie. when you go to https://192.168.1.1/ . TFA also specifically says this DOES affect DD-WRT.

Seriously! They finally got it right with the last UI update, and then they went and screwed it up again. Change for the sake of Change is not good. There must be a purpose!

kdawson hasn't posted/promoted a single decent article, ever.

The solution is to go your preferences, filter by author, and uncheck kdawson. Slashdot looks 1000x better this way.

Except you've linked to the wrong company. Strategic Vision, Inc. is a well respected 30-year old polling firm in California. Strategic Vision, LLC is the shady 5-year old GOP shill corp with questionable poll results and no real office (or polling results allegedly). Careful with those links, you don't want to slander the wrong company here. I think SV Inc. may have a trademark case on their hands if their feeling litigeous.

just dittoing in the official ditto thread for the achievement

Your signal strength degradation in MO has nothing to do with AT&T, and everything to do with your slashdot username!

The one used in the Watchmen trailer is "The Beginning is The End is The Beginning" from The Smashing Pumpkins on the Batman & Robin soundtrack.

Not to be confused with "Choose Your Own Destiny" books.

Yes... because we all know that having a Bachelor's Degree makes you unbiased in the subject.

I'm sorry, but this suggestion is one of the more elitist ones I've heard. I've know PhD professors who were dumb as a doornail - in their supposed specialty! How they got a PhD, I don't know.. but they got one.

Tracking movement works quite well. We are currently using a ISense Cube. The cable we have is extended to about 12 feet with the person on a treadmill or pad type device. If you want people to be free roaming then you need longer cables, wireless, or self contained. Longer cables and wireless might lead to latency problems.

If you made a self contained apparatus then you still need position tracking that will have the same issue also the further away the trackers, they become less accurate. For example, we have used Flock of Birds that has a range of about 3.05 meters. I suppose you could do a design with tons of trackers that are evenly spaced out but that would cost a lot of money.

I know there are other methods but basically small controlled environments are easier to handle.
