Back ~1990 I bought a device from Barkus Berry Electronics which delayed higher frequencies a few ms to let the "slower" bass and low-mid frequencies play catch-up. The idea was that the woofer and midrange had a longer stroke than the tweeter which was required to make the sound. This let the bass and mid leave the speaker at the same time as the high end stuff.
I still have that unit, it really seems to "open up" the music more.
It's nice to see that big oil companies are helping fund a
project like this too.
Of course they'd fund
it.
Around here "gasohol" is a 10% ethanol, 90%
gasoline mixture. Any company can find a way to make that 10%
ingredient cheaper than their competitors will find themselves in a
very enviable position. It's smart business.
Most "petty little criminals" don't get raided by the FBI, so yes, I do think the FBI are acting as Copyright Enforcement for the software corporations.
The only "impact" will be "we have to start using VPNs,
boys!"
I love how Ashcroft and his Copyright Enforcement
Militia makes these pirates sound like the Mafia by using terms
like "syndicate. Think about it: almost all "nfo" files have pleas
for FTP sites for 0-day distribution. If these "sydicates" have to
beg for machines and bandwidth in an "nfo" file, how omnipotent can
they really be?
The feds are just taking care of their
corporate masters, that's all.
.. mice that walk around complaining all the time.
"You're not wearing that to the exercise wheel?!" "You never give me fresh seeds anymore!" "Ever since we had the brood you ignore me in the wood shavings!"

I was wondering why Ron Jeremy's tongue was trailing behind the licking sound.
Don't sweat it, your f157 pr057 rate makes you a legend. I bow to thee.
"the-fifth-hope"? My man, I think you've just given Lucas the title for upcoming Star Wars fiasco. He'll be paying you in Domino's Pizza.
Yeah, dual 6502e's running at 3.6 MHz, replay Lode Runner with those babies!
From the article:
Both Petro-Canada and Royal Dutch Shell are supporting the project with $24.7 million and $46 million respectively.
At least it's good to see some sort of innovation coming out of Canada...
The research involves alcohol, you shouldn't be too suprised.

In 1982 I bought a 16K (yeah K) "Language Card" for $99US when on a trip in the US. My Apple ][+ was upped to 64K of RAM when I got home!

Sheesh, at least you didn't spell "ever" as "evar"...
Actually it wasn't Deckard who says that, it's Leon in an interview with Holden.

I call my RealDoll "Becky".
The glue is heated up and the fumes adhere to the skin oils in the fingerprint. They don't dunk the object in a tank of glue.

Fuck you, SCO$699feetroll is (well.. was) original and has an incredible f1st pr0st rate. Truly a god among men.
Ah crap, now I'm stumped.
Do I make a clone of Jay Maynard's cool TRON costume or of Darth's outfit? Our annual Sci Fi convention is next month and I don't want to wear my Vulcan Ears for the 24th time.
