    How close are you sitting to the HTPC.

    I'm nearing 40, my hearing is not as fine tuned as it used to be.

  2. I don't get it. on How Neuros Built Their Nearly Silent HTPC · · Score: 1

    Why does it have to be silent? Sure quiet is nice but you're watching LOTR with the 7.1 Surround sound and you're worried about 30dB coming from your HTPC.

  3. Re:PCI-DSS certification is a joke on Compliance Is Wasted Money, Study Finds · · Score: 1

    Yeah we hired a PCI dude for like 100k a year. All he did was run a program that said we were out of compliance. No matter what we did we were out of compliance.

  7. Re:Be Careful What You Wish For on Moog's MF-401 Auto De-tune Fixes Music · · Score: 1

    It isn't the singing people are buying. It's the sex. No one wants to go to a concert or buy a CD of someone who is ugly. So they get all the beautiful people who can't sing. But singing can be fixed.

    We'll come out when the money is good enough.

    People are still buying into that crap?

    What kinda self-respecting linux user, with a screen name of ldconfig no less, doesn't use mythtv?

    Oh I'm sorry.

    Quit relying on mommy gov't to save you.

  21. Re:Intuit has a valid point. on Why the IRS Should Automatically Fill In Returns With What It Knows · · Score: 1

    Uh. How does using TurboTax or having the data already pre-filled in change this?

    You made X dollars and paid Y in withholding. You subtract your Z deductions. Seems simple to me.

    The feds already know X and Y.

  23. Re:Oh well... on IPv4 Free Pool Drops Below 10%, 1.0.0.0/8 Allocated · · Score: 1

    I used to use 10.x.x.x for my internal network, until it started to get routed. Appears some ISPs use it for things.
