  1. Re:It depends on contracts on Music Copyright War Looming · · Score: 1

    Check this out: It goes into detail about the predatory contracts the record companies stick desperate musicians with. http://www.negativland.com/albini.html

  2. Re:Google+ on Google Adds Games To Google+ · · Score: 1

    I know, but every time a new game came out I had to 'hide all' for it. I ended up just turning off all platform apps entirely.

  3. Re:Google+ on Google Adds Games To Google+ · · Score: 1

    I hope I don't get spammed every time someone in one of my circles plays a Zynga game. That to me is the worst part of the whole platform; all the ads it forces on other people.

  4. Re:supposedly obsolete tech on PC Designer Says PC "Going the Way of the Vacuum Tube" · · Score: 2

    Tube amps add a touch of harmonic distortion, which can make the music sound richer, deeper and fuller. It adds subtle harmony to the sound. They are still used in mixing and mastering for many different styles of music.

  5. Re:This is why we can't have anything nice on Finding Fault With the Low, Low Price of Android · · Score: 2

    and the only reason for that is because it's free. It's certainly not due to quality.

    I don't think users are only buying Android phones because they are less expensive (if that's even the case). I bet many of them genuinely enjoy the Android experience.

  6. Re:History of this.... on OS X Lion Ships With Faulty NVidia Drivers · · Score: 1

    Good luck getting this addressed, my mid 2009 MBP can't use any SATA-II drives (even though it's a "supported" technology for this model) because of a broken EFI firmware update (1.7) and it's been almost 2 years since they released it without a fix. Apple hasn't released a supported way of rolling the firmware back so I could at least use my "supported" after market hard drive either (even at SATA 1.5 speeds, I'd be happy). Despite threads on apple's forums thousands of posts long with affected customers, Apple still hasn't addressed the problem...

    There exists small jumpers on many 3.5" & 2.5" SATA-II drives that will limit the transfer speeds to 150Mbps. You should see if the drive you are trying to install has that option.
