and the experiment is correct. There is absolutley no garden cress germinating near my router.

User != Nerd. And you should really give decaf a shot. It's just as good. Really!

News for nerds. Any decent nerd knows what cyanogenmod is. If every term was explained in every article, nobody would want to read them. TFA also does not explain "Amdroid", "ICS", or "Android." Consider what a boorishly long article it would be if it did. CNN and Fox News don't explain the word "sequestration" or "murder" in every article. There is a certain level of understanding you expect your audience to have.

Not voting is stupid. It is simply accepting the status quo. If all the people who did not vote pecause they did not like the parties' choices, they could elect thier own (probably better) choice. The two-party system stays in power because of people like you.Nowadays with early and absentee voting, there is no excuse to skip voting.

What kind of installer would use zip ties on fiber? I do QC for the world's largest communications provider, and I would fail any install where that happened.

My very own little Higgs boson particle. I will hug him and squeeze him and name him George.

and another day floating in a life raft, you know, to complete the experience.

That's not coming in through the tv tuner. That interference comes from the audio circuitry on the TV not being properly sheilded - a pulsing relatively high power radio transmitter close to a non-linear circuit. GSM phones are the worst culprits because of the frequency range (800-900MHz).

High latency, High bandwitdh. But given the road, fedex is a little slow. IPoAC would be better. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_over_Avian_Carriers

how far can a monkey throw poo in space?

OK. I have never played the game and I really don't understand what's going on in the video. but TFA states there were ~$25k in loss and damages. That is $25k that people paid EVE for (virtual) merchandise that they don't have anymore. Arms sales, even virtual arms sales, is a very lucrative business.

EVE Online won. They got $25k.

All these destruction plans ignore the obvious: why did you print it to start with? In my office suite we have ~15 printers and one medium size shredder. I see people print 20 copies of prestentations(in color), then notice an error and reprint the whole thing. People will print a 100-page PDF to skim it one time.

How much is a "couple euro" to you? My German brother-in-law pays almost twice as much for the "privilege" than I pay for my medical and life insurance combined. I have no co-pay when I go to the doctor while his is 20 Euro. My widowed mother-in-law's retirement check has decreased four years in a row and prices have increased. Decadent indeed.

The idea of re-ripping ~2400 assorted CDs, DVDs, and BR (total 15tb) really does not appeal to me. So- I back it up, even though I have every one of the originals. Just because you don't understand something is not a reason to assume the person is doing something illegal.
