The PSU on my new computer got goofed during shipment. Given the box is all beat up and managed to get a friggen hole in it, I'm thankful that's apparently the only problem. Murphy's law.

better then a doa motherboard then the guy at a pc store bending 8 cpu pins

I was at the post office when I found a woman's wallet lying in the parking lot. I turned it into the front desk, really hope she gets it back.

Apparantly the CBR (the goverment department that handels exams for vehicle licenses) decided to go on a little nation-wide holiday, starting yesterday...

So, now that I'm done with studying, and ready to take the exam, the soonest date that I will capable of taking my car exam (1/2) will be more than a whole month.


Hurray...

Plus, I heard that they were getting a rematch, or something...

Might be wrong.

Hang on, let me get this...

NN is not dead yet. It still needs to make it past the courts, past a congress with only a very thin republican majority, at a time when most Democrats (and even a lot of republicans) and 95% of the general population support NN. Then there are the claims of  is Obvious and transparent corruption within the FCC, the mass identity theft which WILL come up in a big way over the next couple of weeks... and after all that, individual states will still resist the decision.


If you are in America, keep sending messages to congress, Keep the pressure on. We have suffered a blow, but we have not lost this yet.


Edit: brisky beat me too it :P

Good, to hear it aint over yet!

If a country ran for 90% by coorperal greed can't get away with this, then there's still some hope left for humanity! :P


Shame I don't live in the US, tho, would've drawn it, then...

Net Neutrality now forces that every website should be treated the same.
That means that the simple webblog that has 50 visitors a month should be treated the same as Facebook, this means that this simple webblog has to pay the same amount as Facebook which makes no sense.
Isn't it normal tha thte biggest users of internet space should pay more than this simple webblog?

but the current rules just passed here in the US will 'allow' Internet Providers to charge what they want, to build 'packages' of popular sites, to block or restrict certain types of sites, etc... pretty much with no regulation on how they do it.

Can't get around the provider who you are hooked up too... this is not something to 'help' anyone but the providers...
