What I personally think is most exciting if this gets adopted, is not the bill itself but that US "hackers" see that they can influence politics. I've always been impressed that you, even early on, had organizations like the Electronic Fro

That's very subjective. It's true though that Apple has been able to sell products that generally have lower specs then their price equivalent. But if that is because of marketing, killer applications, user experience or something else isn'

I think it would be more interesting if the "guesses" would actually take into consideration how successful or unsuccessful the method is with the data available. For example, how likely are each of the names he mentioned and how likely is

First I want to say that I don't agree with publicly disclosing the "identity" of people who doesn't want to be found. I also don't think doing so "originates" from any good personal quality. That being said, I do remember this [1] talk fro

I'm sorry, I of course meant low GI. Which is in line with "less of stuff that has [...] too quick energy" and "keeping you from having cravings" , i.e. keeping your blood sugars stable. But I didn't write that, so good of you to call

Most people don't want nor need to train and look like a bodybuilder. Bodybuilders do things that might be great for aesthetics, but not always necessarily straight forward nor healthy for the beginner. If you feel that you are at a decent

Some people likes the routine of going to the gym, others rather do something at home. Whatever works for the moment and keeps you enjoying it is great. What I mean by doing the basics right is that if you're out of shape, there's no need t

I don't see any problem with this, it clearly states that the articles are from Wikipedia. As long as they don't change the license they can more or less rework and distribute it however they like. There are also others doing similar things

This is somewhat interesting from a "games are losing their soul" perspective, but at least five years late. Also game piracy isn't new and has mostly been "solved" by consoles and online multiplayer. Ps. Calling copyright infringement "ste

Well, I don't know about the US. But I went from xDSL to FTTB (& FTTH) in Sweden and it's cheaper, more reliable and have less latency. I can choose between speeds ranging from 1 to 100Mbit, from eight diffrent ISPs [1]. If you want goo

I also reacted before I noticed the sarcasm. The thing is that it's quite common seeing such statements that actually are serious. Sweden is also not socialist country, if anything it's social democratic (nordic model), which should not be

English is not my first language and I find it very frustrating when people nitpick on words. The first year of my fashion studies was (more or less) devoted to the meaning of the word 'fashion', but I still manage to understand what people

Fashion is one of those things (like etiquette, social norms and maybe religion) that you need to understand to willfully ignore. You're making just as much of a statement by wearing jeans and a t-shirt as someone wearing a suit. For me a t

I'm also in Sweden, with 100 Mbit/s FTTB (Cat. 7) via OpenNet for $45/month. FTTH is present but not currently enabled. Once you have FTTx you're quite future proof, if it was installed "correctly". I use Bahnhof as my ISP, for their nice s

After reading this thread, I'm just amazed how out of touch with reality a lot of the people here seem. Iraq is a war zone, one of the most dangerous places on the planet. Going there to experience the culture or the people is just absurd.

One example of this that comes to mind is the Xbox. When the Xbox was first released, while being essentially a computer, it was only meant for playing games and watching dvds. Later when modding became easy, and therefor widespread, people
