This Spewed Out of the Internet #10

Here’s a few more tidbits of internet brilliance that caught my attention:

K3NG noticed that a pirate radio broadcaster told the FCC that he is not under their jurisdiction because he is in the Republic of Texas. Don’t Mess With Texas.

Looking for professional grade audio performance? Then you need this Audio Grade Power Outlet. Be sure to read through the comments.

The Fall ritual of changing our clocks due to Daylight Saving Time is over. While some of our politicians keep telling us this saves energy, that theory has been largely discarded.  My proposal is to have everyone on the planet switch to UTC. Seems simpler to me — fewer errors in my log book.

Its official: Laptop computers fail way too often. Square Trade published a study that compares laptop and netbook failure rates (all of them are too high). What ever happened to Total Quality Control?

Cracked.com made a run at describing what the world would be like if the Internet disappeared today.

NASA has concluded that there is water on the moon. Holy Cow, really? This is a major discovery. Of course, some people are upset that NASA is abusing the moon by crashing spacecraft into it.

One final thought: Thursday is Thanksgiving in the US, so stop your whining and find something to be thankful for.

I will if you will.
