    zymano, the brainwashing was deep and thorough... you can't blame the deaf for not hearing.

  2. Re:Business Intelligence on Visualizing Complex Data Sets? · · Score: 1


    They'll push you towards SAP BW. A beast at best. Very strong tool, but like anything SAP, difficult to master.

  3. Re:So really... on How To Supplement Election Coverage? · · Score: 4, Insightful


    Might I recommend Xanax? It sounds like you're a bit wound up there, big fella...

    "In the UK, "spreading the wealth around" is socialism, not liberalism. The two are different."

    BINGO!!!
    and what we call "Conservatives" here are really neocons, which really means...come on now, help me out, starts with an "f" and ends with "ist"

    We really should start using the appropriate terminology here. A rose by any other name and all...

    I believe that would be the "Campnosperma brevipetiolata" from Micronesia...

  6. Re:It's really the company's decision on Getting Rid of Staff With High Access? · · Score: 1

    Nice Flamebait, but I made no judgements about your "history" or "strategy". I just found your comment about expecting notice while being laid off to be quite naive.
    FYI - My reputation is "intact" and I also have often been approached by former employers and/or management fo assistance. Thanks for the "reading", but Sylvia Brown you're not...

  8. Re:It's really the company's decision on Getting Rid of Staff With High Access? · · Score: 1

    If the roles were reversed and you were getting laid off you'd expect at least that much notice.
    HAHAHAHAHAHA!! That's Rich!
  9. Re:So long Music Industry... on Media Research Exec Says Music Industry Is On Its Last Legs · · Score: 3, Interesting


    I'd like to add, as a musician who has home studio, that there is one benefit that you get from a "pro" studio.

    The Engineer.

    Some of these guys are freaking geniuses. There is definitely an art to recording, as much as there is in playing an instrument or belching out that killer vocal.

    I've spent enough time in "pro" studios to know that my engineering skills are tiny compared to some of the guys I've seen (or should I say heard...). My mixes are usually good enough for a demo and/or working out all of the parts for a song, but there is something about having a professional set of audiophile ears and talented mixing fingers work on your project.

  10. Re:Technical review... on Self-Tuning Electric Guitar · · Score: 4, Informative



    Actually, you should RTFA. The Gibson solution "PHYSICALLY" tunes the strings, not virtually like the Line 6.

    The new Fender VG Strat has a virtual mode that acts as you describe.

    From all the press, this new Gibson is the real deal.

    Hopefully my wife will "approve" another "investment".

  13. Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle... on Chimps Found Making Own Weapons to Hunt for Food · · Score: 1


    In other news...

    Chimpanzees in the wild have been observed eating hallucinogenic fungi, shaving their heads, and having promiscuous sex with an unusual number of other apes.

    This "making like Spears" behaviour has stunned scientists around the world.

    However, it has again called into question the apes intelligence levels.

  14. Re:oblig. on US Not Getting Money's Worth From ISS · · Score: 5, Funny


    trying not to be an apologist, but fer Christ's sake, I would thing that most Yale graduates can grasp the concept of a space station.

    I can understand if you dislike the man, but he's likely "at least" as intelligent as you are, based on your comment history.

  19. Re:In a capitalist economy, stuff like this happen on Techies Asked To Train Foreign Replacements · · Score: 1


    How's that MBA working out for you?

    You sound like you work in BOA's HR department and are trying to justify what you do during the day in order to sleep at night.

    This kind of mentality IS going to break America. It is nothing more than economic terrorism perpetrated through stupidity and short-sightedness and based on greed rather than religious fanaticism.

    My answer is easy: I won't trade with BOA. You can call me xenophobic if you like. I am a proud American and will not knowingly do business with a company that cans my peers AND THEN THREATENS TO WITHHOLD THEIR SEVERENCE UNLESS THEY TRAIN THEIR THIRD WORLD REPLACEMENTS. Good lord, I hope you're a troll.

    Bank of America my ass.
