  It's all mp3's and audio books, till you get shot. But it looked like the perp had bullets.

  on Netflix Pretends It Will Crackdown On VPNs Just Days After Admitting It's Futile To Do So

  This could be good for us all.
  
  
  When a large chunk of the population of the plant is using VPN's, the noise level becomes a roar.

  on Connecticut Gets Tired Of Waiting For State's Regional Broadband Duopoly, Starts Pushing Gigabit Networks

  Basically to echo Jeffry. Before we bought this place in '99(Southington) we had dial-up/DSL in Waterbury. We (well mostly me) refused to buy any house with out cable modem service. Cox has been fine for the most part.
  
  Wish the upload was better.

  on Blackburn Bill Attempts To Gut New Net Neutrality Rules. You Know, For Freedom.

  Somewhat shockingly none of the comments here http://blackburn.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=397695 are in favor.

  on Sanctioned Revenge Porner Craig Brittain Says That Google Is Nothing But Copyright Infringement

  Morpheus: What is the Matrix? Control. The Matrix is a computer-generated dream world built to keep us under control in order to change a human being into this.
  
  [holds up a Duracell battery]
  
  Neo: No, I don't believe it. It's not possible.
  
  Morpheus: I didn't say it would be easy, Neo. I just said it would be the truth.
  
  
  Neo: This... this isn't the Matrix?
  Morpheus: No. It is another training program designed to teach you one thing: if you are not one of us, you are one of them.
  
  Morpheus: Throughout human history, we have been dependent on machines to survive. Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony.
  
  Morpheus: I imagine that right now, you're feeling a bit like Alice. Hmm? Tumbling down the rabbit hole?
  Neo: You could say that.

  on Keurig Competitor Offers Free Hack Workaround For Keurig's Absurd Java Bean DRM

  I requested one from Rogers last week. Not for me but for a friend that got one for xmas. I like my knock-off Bunn that brews a 12 cup pot in under 3 minutes. Having fast amount of coffee on demand has personally been the reason people around me are still alive. :)

  on James Clapper Claims That Sony Hack 'The Most Serious Cyberattack On The US Yet'; Which Suggests No Serious Cyberattacks

  "For years, people like Clapper have been warning of the pending "cyber Pearl Harbor," and if this is the best they've got so far... sorry, but that's just not that serious."
  
  
  I'm still more devastated about the loss of the SS Minnow.
