    We have a chick here who puts up tons of decorations for every freaking holiday known to man she comes in on the weekends to do it. I'm guessing same deal here.

  9. Re:Adams' darkroom == analog photoshop on Would Ansel Adams Have Gone Digital? · · Score: 1

    Damn straight I know a couple of very good people who take pictures for a living and do some *great* art to boot and they all agree with what you have just said and love digital so yes he would have in a heartbeat.

  10. Re:Laptop power consumption & airplane securit on Hitachi Readies Fuel Cell for PDAs · · Score: 1

    Yes yes we can because the choices are in now way shape or form based on risk. They are based on what the airlines can do to look good while not putting out the people off of whom they make a large chunk of their bank. (business types) That is why they still allow laptops on. Think about it a laptop as a bludgeon is a a *far* greater risk than anything that is banned now that was not banned before 2001. So yes they will allow this through for a couple of reasons. One there is not enough of it to do any damage. And two if this becomes the in thing for business types to have not allowing it would put their income at risk and don't delude yourself it is all about income and perception and not in any way shape or form about security.

  11. Re:Weber writes military sci-fi books, get over it on Dread Empire's Fall: The Praxis · · Score: 0

    I hate Honor Harrington. I like The Apocalypse Troll. I like the three books collected in Empire From The Ashes. I like his book based on Drake's Ranks Of Bronze universe.

    You must be doing something wrong. My epro 10/100 works just by loading the module during the install and the CD writer "just works". /me wonders what is wrong with you?

    The best one is that now KFC is trying to pimp themselves as "healthy". I'm convinced that we are through the looking glass.

  20. Re:how is this an issue on Court Upholds FCC's 2007 Deadline For Digital TV · · Score: 2, Insightful

    DVD players are the perfect example of why you are wrong.

    Think about it 2 years ago a decent mid range DVD player was running between $150 to $200.

    Now you can get a decent mid range player for ~ $70. Basically as they becaome more popular and more were built economies of scaled kicked in and they came way down in price. The same thing will happen with this. Today they are *way* expensive by the time they are putting one in every TV sold they will add a very small amount to the total price. The industry knows nobody is going to pay the current prices and they will figure out a way to do it at a price people will pay.
