  1. Re:The Name SUCKS on Who'll Be Using Ogg Vorbis Instead Of MP3? · · Score: 1

    I dunno...I kinda like the sound of "oh-gee-geez."

  2. Re: Wacka wacka. on Bill Gates Says GPL Is Like Pac-Man · · Score: 1

    Correct phonetically, but it's "Wokka wokka."

  3. (not just) NTSC to VGA box on Hacking Acer's Set-Top Box · · Score: 2

    I came across this product last year when I ripped apart a laptop to see if I could figure out a use for the LCD.

    I guess this proves there is a market for choosing a unique name. All I remembered was "cheese". Enter "cheese vga" into Google, and voila!

  4. Possible Solution on Ozone Hole Will Heal, Say British Scientists · · Score: 2

    I never understood why you couldn't just send a whole bunch of those Tyco HO Slot Racers up in the atmosphere. I had 'em in my basement, and you'd get woozy smelling all of the ozone they kicked out.

  5. Surprised? on Gamepro Talks About Indrema · · Score: 1

    Note Gildred does not say we will be "pleasantly surprised" when the processor speed is announced.
    Just "surprised". It's going to use a 386/33.

  6. And... on Pi: It Just Keeps On Going · · Score: 1

    If you take the distance from our sun to Alpha Centari as the radius for a circle, and use only the first digit of 2 to calculate the diameter of that circle, the result will be *exact*.

  7. Profits on Indrema's John Gildred Answers Your Questions · · Score: 2

    I am totally in favor of this concept, but I couldn't help notice that he failed to answer
    the question of how they would make money. It is established that consoles are sold
    at a loss, and the money is made in licensing.

  8. Re:Sounds a lot like Channel One on Campus Pipeline: Schools Selling Students' Eyes · · Score: 1

    Yah, the vast majority of my peers mocked Channel
    One openly. However, look where Lisa Ling and
    Anderson Cooper are now. One's hawking Old Navy
    and the other's actually working as a ABCNews reporter.

  9. Great! on Amazon Charging Different Prices for Same Items? · · Score: 2

    Now I don't even have to leave Amazon to do my price comparison
    shopping! Just view the site with different browsers and cookies,
    and see what kind of deals you can get!

    Does this mean we can figure out Amazon's 'pricing scheme' to rip them off?
