    I pay less than $7/month for my Usenet connection, which is relatively cheap if you use it frequently. The connection is over SSL so it's completely secure end-to-end. My average d…

    Rogers already does this (cripples download and limits upload to ~80KBps). They've forced me to switch to Usenet as even popular Torrents slow to a crawl on their Ultimate plan (50…

    For the time being, nothing. However, once TPB goes full magnet you'll just submit a link instead of a file. It should make the process easier.

    The court order was not misunderstood, it was executed exactly as written. The person(s) who made the final verdict are the ones that misunderstand the technology and that's not th…

    That's a shame, but at the same time you have to wonder who would store five years of photos using an online service and not have a single backup. Buy one or two cheap portable har…

    I'm currently working on a custom written Photoblog hashed out in PHP using the Codeigniter framework. Photography is a just a hobby of mine and I refuse to use services like Flick…

    Yes, I know what he was talking about, just not how it relates to running a PHP-FPM server on Node.js. What was posted has absolutely nothing to do with ASP.NET and he's spouting o…
