I missed the whole thing where .com was managed by the US, i thought that's why the .us domain was invented... i don't think anyone outside the US associates a .com meaning US based. Regardless, stupid law, Team America strikes again!

I don't think most Nigerian mobile users will have access to a HDMI-capable TV within the next couple of years, so the Raspberry isn't the way. Raspberry Pi also has RCA and stereo output, so could quite easily connect to a any standard T

Haha, looks like the MAFIAA war machine has been working pretty effectively that even HN readers are starting to believe it!

That's a very good point, I haven't properly used jQuery since 1.4.2 and it would be good to catch up on the new features of the API during "dead time" like this.

I await his next blog post "I got fired for throwing all my toys out the pram" with great anticipation, where he explains how throwing a massive hissy fit and not taking his (some good) points up with the team and management. I don't agree

Agreed, about the same on my machine. It's kind of expected. On my old machine I would just start Photoshop and go make a cup of tea. Or switch windows and carry on with something else. But I rarely use Photoshop... If you are doing this da

"A camel is a horse designed by committee" Well that's the problem with committees, unless you are all reading off the same sheet, the music ain't going to sound so sweet. Regardless, the answer is not "don't bother", the answer is still to

If he was at university then surely there was a clued up professor there who could have given him all the advice he would have needed.

While I agree about the vandalism, I really don't like this "don't bother" attitude. If it's broke, then fix it.

Totally agree with you. I don't see why people are kicking up such a fuss. In fact, grab the IP addresses of everyone in those subreddits, hunt them down and throw them in jail. Give them a good beating on route too. What if someone started

Then why did the British government apologise for their part in the slave trade? It was not illegal or immoral (from the Brits point of view anyway) at that time...

Class action lawsuit anyone? That'll bump it up the priority list. The more this becomes public the more likely it is that stories will surface about how "my life was destroyed because FB didn't actually delete the photo and now I need to b

Wow, you don't use facebook. Good for you, But 500 million other people in the world do. That makes it a fairly big deal, love it or loath it. And as you so rightly just pointed out, this may in turn affect the way everyone else does busine

Even if you released that press release, what are the chances of the media reporting it that way. The article itself states it, CNN's parent supports SOPA... so don't you think the headline is written to grab attention and frame it as "Wiki

What a scum bag, especially after the phone hacking scandal and having a newspaper close down here in the UK and no doubt countless other invasions of privacy. I'd say that is much more serious than piracy!

I don't think it needs to completely dark, they would probably lose too much revenue to justify this... but why don't they black out the site with an overlay and a message "this is what would happen if SOPA becomes law, click here to find o

Just read TFA and you read my mind. ICS would probably run like a dog on the hardware, and most true geeks will probably want more than 8GB storage to play with without access to cloud storage. Nice idea but 99% of the people a Fire probabl
