2010: D-day for the Internet as it hits “full capacity”?
Doom-filled warnings arrive from AT&T this week. The company says that without substantial investment in network infrastructure, the Internet will essentially run out of bandwidth in just two short years.
Blame broadband, says AT&T. Decades of dealing with the trickle of bandwidth consumed by voice and dialup modems left AT&T twiddling its thumbs. The massive rise of DSL and cable modem service in the 2000s has had AT&T facing a monstrous increase in the volume of data transmissions.

Have to copy and paste a lot of files in Windows? However much you try to avoid it, eventually you have to move or copy a bunch of files from different folders and paste them into one folder. Or you might have to copy files from one location on your hard drive to multiple destinations.
Either way, it can be a royal pain because you have to keep navigating to different folders or have 10 different windows open for each location you are copying and pasting from. The most annoying thing is that you can only copy one item at a time. It would be nice if there was some kind of copy paste “buffer” where you could copy 10 items from different and then paste them all at once. Read more

The story, well, it’s there. Stark, a wealthy playboy CEO and genius of his weapons company finds himself held hostage by terrorists using weapons he designed. The unbearable guilt and irony of the situation leads him to a change of heart and he wants to do the right thing. He builds an advanced exoskeleton suit, but it’s not for the military. Oh no, he’s done being a merchant of death. He’s going to blow up evildoers using his weapons. It’s believable to a nerd, like most comic books. (Because we want to believe.)
