  1. Re:Lossless on Apple Releases Major iTunes Update · · Score: 1

    Not quite on point, but check out rip digital. They can encode at a high enough bit rate to satisfy and have the option of supplying you with a external harddrive containing all your tunes. No, I do not work for them.

  2. Re:You are a jealous bully on Slashback: Eldred, Cruise, SOAP · · Score: 2

    RMS, you really need to not let these comments bother you so much.

  3. Are they sure... on New Moon of Uranus Discovered · · Score: 2

    That it isn't a really big kernal of corn? I mean those things go right through me.

  4. Re:Things are a little different now. on IBM Wants CPU Time To Be A Metered Utility · · Score: 1

    Like teenage cheerleaders. On second thought I hope they are bad.

  5. Re:A tribute to the FBI... on FBI Arrests 4 College Interns For Stealing Lunar Materials · · Score: 2

    I'm sorry, you were laughing your star off? Your asterisk off?

    I'll bet I could beat you up.

  6. Re:ask slashdot submissions future on Computer Room Design? · · Score: 2

    Ummmmm, since you brought it up... I was just wondering that exact thing.

  7. Why oh why?! on KDE 3.1 Alpha1 is Here · · Score: 1

    Seriously, this is an ALPHA release. It would be another story if this was a beta and somebody actually wanted to install it.

  8. Re:Backyard maglev on Slashback: Livermore, Privacy, Nixieness · · Score: 2

    Not a maglev, but that is an awesome acomplishment! Now if only you can talk your neighbors into adding on to the system!

  9. Re:What do Christians think about this? on Planetary System Similar to Sol · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Christians think? Bwaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaa! Snerf snort Bwaaahaaaaaaaaaaaa!

  10. Re:Misuse of the word "literally" on Napster files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy · · Score: 2

    Is that innuendo I hear? Are you coming on to Cowboy Neal? Is basement a euphemism for something perhaps? Don't be shy, at one time or another we have all considered getting a bit of Cowboy Neal.

  11. Re:Difference between banner ads and TV ads on PVRs and Advertisers' Worries · · Score: 2

    Wait a minute, you mean to tell me toothbrushes are *available* in the uk? So people *choose* not to use them?
    Sorry, taking shots at the uk is soooo easy. Yeah baby!

  12. Re:Confused editor on Felt Tip Marker Defeats Copy-Protected CDs · · Score: 5, Funny

    You are correct. Unfortunatly, the price of sharpies will quadruple to pay for 'piracy potential'.

  13. Re:well the weather outside is frightful... on Cable Without Cables · · Score: 2

    I live in Seattle, and in 2 years of DirecTV I have experienced rain fade only one time.The closest I have come to being afected by the weather is when a windstorm 'realigned' my dish. I just twisted it back and voila! I have a pretty random sampling throughout the day since my two Tivos record at all hours...

  14. Re:Wow, that's amazing... on The Culture of CD Burning · · Score: 1

    ME = Mellissa Ethridge? Didn't she have David Crosby's love child?

  15. Re:The thing I got out of this on Google Ad-words Poetry Project · · Score: 2

    Speaking of evil ads try this query and click on the advertisers! Does the heart good to know you are taking money from spammers and putting in Google's hands.

  16. Re:My contribution to the anti-spam cause... on Stopping Spambots: A Spambot Trap · · Score: 1

    Hey, my email address is on those pages! Bastard! =)

    Seriously, how did you decide they were 'non-existant'?

  17. Re:I am partially made of Titanium on The Sexiest Metal · · Score: 3, Funny

    It might be from the 'exercise' your wrist is getting while you take those looooong baths and showers.

  18. Re:$600 is still too much on ZapStation Price Cut, Linux-Only Version · · Score: 1

    Sadly, it does not play VBR's. That is a drawback...

  19. Re:$600 is still too much on ZapStation Price Cut, Linux-Only Version · · Score: 2

    I don't understand why people just don't buy this thing. I got mine for $149US and it plays mp3's and vcd's and pal and ntsc dvd's. It is also region free... If you spend $150 on this you still have $450 left to purchase a TiVo.

  20. Seems a bit steep on Your Own Luxury Submarine! · · Score: 1

    When you can get a personal sub for around $750k.

    This place makes all kinds of subs.

  21. Re:And the difference is on Behind the Numbers: LCD vs. CRT · · Score: 2

    Actually, the LCD is much easier on the eyes as there is none of the eyesight damaging flicker associated with CRT's.

  22. Re:Relaxing moral views on First Human Clone Eight Weeks Along · · Score: 2

    Who will feed this giant new geriatric population?

    Feed them? they will be feeding us! Haven't you see the documentary soylent green?

  23. Re:In-box silencer on Making Your Room Quiet · · Score: 1

    Have you considered venting to the attic? I have benn thinking about putting a grill in the ceiling of my closet and a grill near the floor in the door. I am kind of hoping that a passive convection type thing will happen so I won't need a fan...

  24. Re:more information on DivX and MP3 Developers Work Together on Watermarks · · Score: 1

    The key difference being that .gifs only support 256 colors and .jpgs support millions of colors. That example is more about which one was ultimately more pleasing and which was the right 'tool' for the job. If you look at you average webpage the single/spot color images still tend to be .gifs. While the photos tend to be .jpgs.

  25. Nothing to see here on DivX and MP3 Developers Work Together on Watermarks · · Score: 1

    Let the "I am switching to OOG!" posts begin. The real point is that ANY watermark that they divise will be cracked. Sooner than later. All this is, is two companies trying to polish their public images in order to acquire lucrative licensing deals with big name media producing companies. They need to shed the 'your product is only good for piracy' image. That is all.
