Is this what they refer to as a "soft tail"?
So,
I was taking a break from homework to glance over the news and I see that Google is going to be putting in a gigabit fiber Internets line in Kansas City, KS. How cool is that?
Last week, we had a discussion question about whether or not computer hacking laws should be stricter or tougher or something. There were two of us that said, "fogedaboudit." It seems like jurisdiction and manpower would make any new laws work at the same level as the current laws.
The world is changing and it's going to be harder to maintain control of people based on geographical boundaries.
Oh, that reminds me. South Carolina is thinking about making regular lightbulbs legal to manufacture and use in their state. The feds are outlowing them and by something like 2014, everyone will be required to use the spiral jobbies that take 15 minutes to get to full brightness. Supposedly, they use less energy. I'm not so sure about that because I have a couple that I never turn off because it takes too long for them to start producing light.
It's probably against the law to leave the light on.
Someone warn Tom Bodett.
Anyway, South Carolina is claiming that they can do this because the feds only have jurisdiction if products are going to cross the state lines. If the lights are produced in South Carolina, sold in South Carolina, and used in South Carolina, then the state believes that they get to choose. They would be right if laws meant anything at all but the feds are claiming that since there is no way to know for sure that the lights won't be smuggled over state lines, the feds still get to decide whether or not South Carolina can have light bulbs that light up when you turn them on.
While the rest of the Internets is talking about open source being part of this cool new world that we're moving into, I'm learning how to use Office 2010.
The system is rigged!
Damn skippy!
So, what am I learning?
Patience, wonder, awe, and optimism.
Now, I have to go read about what Aristotle thinks about Google's gigabit fiber service.
