    The YAPC take-off on YACC is too much. :/

    This disc was recorded on an Ampex stereo tape recorder from 10 CPS bottom to 30,000 CPS top; transferred to disc with Neumann lathe plus a Teldec cutting head, and utilizes the standard 'RIAA' playback curve. This disc was pressed from the finest virgin vinyl, in a process that removes surface noise and distortion. A microgroove-stereo pickup with a .0007 tip radius+.0001 is recommended for finest results, with a stylus weight of not more than 4 grams.

    Handle this disc with great care, especially avoiding touching the playing surface with fingers (skin oils damage the vinyl). Use a soft damp cloth to clean the disc, and store it carefully in this jacket at moderate temperature. With proper care this high fidelity stereophonic disc should last indefinitely.

    No, I believe they did this for "remind", not "duplicate", otherwise, how could this kind of thing happen so frequently? even a 6 years old child can learn the lesson from past.

    No, because Bose speakers are of mediocre quality and are overpriced.

    Have you ever heard of the boy who cried wolf? One of these days, Mr King is going to die for real, and no one will believe you.

    ...I'm glad this one's in Florida and not Canada because I'm really looking forward to meeting some of the bikini-clad lady Perl developers.

      As a resident, let me tell you a few secrets about South Florida. The bikini-clad females range from about West Palm Beach and northwards, and Ft Lauderdale and southwards. Boca Raton, which fortunately is right inbetween these two fine locations, has only geriatrics and fat, white, snowbirds who migrate seasonally to escape the colder winter of New York.

    I think you're just throwing a hissy fit because you're gonna lose karma, and he's gonna get it, and all of /. is laughing at you, not with you.

    To summarize, in case you have trouble paying attention (your past posts indicate you do):
    You lose.
    He wins.

    Oh fuck, he loses /. karma... boo-hoo, I'm sure his world is falling apart around him even as I type this.

    This isn't "flamebait". These are my honest feelings, I'm afraid of travelling to the USA, although I would like to attend the conference.
