  1. This seems to be common in movie trailers. on Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow! · · Score: 0
    For example if you can find the trailer for October Sky the music is taken from Apollo 13, from the launch if I'm not mistaken.

    You see, movie soundtracks are recorded a mere month or two before the movie comes to theaters. But the trailers come out several months or even more than a year. So, in the absence of the final soundtrack, existing music is often used.

  2. Wasn't there one already? on LOTR to Become a London Musical · · Score: 0

    Almost a year ago? Gandalf, it not only turns people invisible, but we can also go back in time!

  3. And just for good measure on JRR Tolkien: Return Of The Domain Name · · Score: 0

  4. Re:Blow-up doll on Weird Presents Anyone? · · Score: 0

  5. Re:RTFA. jesus on Microsoft: Patches, Patches Everywhere! · · Score: 0

    Read it again: "The company is still investigating why and how the patch was reissued." They know who is being patched. They don't know who in MS released it or why it was released when no one in MS is supposed to be release patches.

  9. Translate It on Japanese PDA Hacks and Customizations · · Score: 1

    Couldn't you just use one of those translation sites to do it? Maybe garbbled English, but you would have an idea of what it says. :)

  11. MP3, Books, Movies, Software, Etc. on URLs Aren't Property? · · Score: 1

    The same thing for MP3s, books, movies, software, etc. The internet makes copyright laws nearly impossible to enforce.

  17. Computer Presevation on Computer Historian? · · Score: 1

    Computer history sounds real interesting. I have also heard of organizations that collect old computers and try to preserve them and their software so that part of history isn't lost.

  18. There Goes Video Games on Official Xbox XDK Details · · Score: 1
    Cut to 5 years from now, if for some reason the verdict doesn't hold.

    Nintendo? Sega? Sony? What's that?

    Cut back to the present.

    I'm sorry but this is just getting old.........

  19. Sweet man,sweet! on New Nautilus Screenshots · · Score: 1
    It may not look like much, or be that impressive right now, but wait for when it's done. I find that many opensource projects that have been done before in one way or another start out with common features, get them done right for the first release, and then add new features. There's bound to be something new, but somethings come before others.

    Also keep in mind that Nautilus is targeting new users. The seasoned vets among us may not have use for it, but the newbies will. Of course learning the innereds of Linux is the best way to go.
