  1. already on itunes... on Pink Floyd Give In To Digital Downloads · · Score: 1

    Just out of curiosity , I searched on itunes. Lo, Dark Side of the Moon was there.
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/dark-side-of-the-moon/id14336410

  2. just one recruiter? Put the effort in! on When Do You Fire a Headhunter? · · Score: 1

    "Fire" a headhunter? Implying that you only have one? My experience is that some recruiters are good, some are bad and some are middling. If you're looking for work, I've always found it much more advantageous to have as many applications (to relevant positions only, obviously) out as possible, with multiple recruiters, and to keep track of what companies your application has gone into yourself, to ensure you're not double-submitted. Far more effective.

  3. Re:Judicial not product confusion on French Designer Ordered to Give up milka.fr · · Score: 1

    check your TLDs - .co.il is Israel, not Ireland (.ie)

  4. Mathematics/Mathematical Physics. on Best Degree to Pair w/ a B.Sc. in Computer Science? · · Score: 1

    Mathematics or Mathematical Physics. Maths for the logic and MP so you can get a job with the weather service.

  5. Re:Records, Tapes, and MP3s, Oh My! on Are iTMS's 128kbps Songs Worth Collecting? · · Score: 1

    After all, if vinyl is such a high-density storage medium, where are the vinyl videodiscs with 6-track sound?
    Well, it might not exist, but if it were to, it would be a cross between Vinyl Video and an enhancement to Quardophonic audio

  6. is this not a good thing? on FCC to Require Broadcasters to Keep Tapes of Shows · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Surely tapes can be used in defence against complaints too. e.g. "You said such a liebelous thing, and all my friends heard it", says the person making the complaint. "No I didn't, that could clearly have been anyone I was talking about, here's the tape to prove it".

  7. cell phones do cause crashes... on Wireless LAN Onboard Passenger Aircraft · · Score: 1

    I've seen a lot of comments here along the lines of "How come this is OK, but cell phones aren't", along with replies "Cell phones are safe on 'planes".

    Anyways there was an article in new scientist a little while back about how aircraft electronics can quite easily be affected by cellphone, I figured I'd throw it in here.

  8. Starbucks press release.... on Microsoft, Starbucks To Offer Wireless Service · · Score: 1

    It's a lot of marketing stuff, but there's more information on the press release...

  9. more on this on Next, The Copier Will Reproduce Popsicles · · Score: 2

    This came up in new scientist a while back - the article mentioned a company,
    toybuilders, who do this kind of thing to create "custom toys" (action figures that look like you, etc..)
