  1. Re:Death by EMI on Wearable LCD Display · · Score: 1, Insightful
    I thought LCDs don't produce EMI because they don't use an electron gun like a CRT does.

    Yes / No ? I really am not sure here...

  2. Speechless...... on Jacket Grown from Living Tissue · · Score: 3, Funny
    My first thoughts were "ok, that's pretty freaking disturbing", but then I realized I own a leather jacket, belts, gloves, and boots.

    My second thoughts were "Hmm, I wonder how I'd look in a mouse coat".

    No apologies needed. Those of us with reading comprehension skills knew what you meant.

  5. Re:XBOX2 on Mac OS X Running On Xbox · · Score: 1

    Agreed, but it would in theory run smoother than the Xbox1 install.

    Heh, I never said that the grandparent had a good idea really, just that you seemed to misunderstand them.

    Glad to see we're in agreement here =)

    Hence the "SSO like" design. The grandparent was suggesting a variation on the existing design. The current model doesn't have the capacity to carry 20 people either.

    Clinton gets a BJ .... So I have to ask, what's really more important?

    If you ask me, getting a BJ is always more important than just about anything else.

    Perhaps, but now you'd have an audio recording of those subtitles.

    Wait a sec...

    The economy was on the down-turn at the end of Clinton's reign. The current economoy isn't all W's work.

    I'm not a big fan of his, but fair is fair.

    ... but then you're wasting a cd. I'm not sure it's worth it. ...

    You could use a CD-RW to save yourself from wasting the media. Not a perfect solution, but good enough for me..

  14. Re:Fair Comparison? on AbiWord vs. MS Word, For Now · · Score: 1
    Which was the grandparents point I believe. They were implying (I think) that you're not likely to replace your word processor / spreadsheet / presentation software with just a word processor no matter how good the word processing program is.

    It is apples and oranges, but still a valid consideration...

    You win. Hands down, that was the best remark I've read in months. My hat (if I was wearing one) would be off to you.

    Congrats!!

  16. Re:Zealotry on Real Feels iTunes Backlash · · Score: 1
    Quite possibly (what company doesn't at some point), but you'll have to explain how they are in this case..

  17. Re:Zealotry on Real Feels iTunes Backlash · · Score: 1
    While I am surprised that there isn't more support for Real coming from the anti-DRM / Proprietary folks, I also can't help but think that Real would have more support if they opened up their format.

    Granted, nobody really wants to use their format, but at least I'd be more willing to get behind them if they acted in a non-hypocritical manner.

  18. Re:NeoOffice/J development status on Excellent Tutorial for OpenOffice.org on Mac OS X · · Score: 2, Interesting
    I think NeoOfficeJ is a fantastic implementation of OpenOffice. I switched to it because NeoJ will load associated files when you double click them. OpenOffice in its current OS X X-window implementation doesn't do this very consistently. On top of that the integration with OS X is just so much cleaner and friendlier.

    Neo Office J is being used to prepare for the eventual native OS X release of OpenOffice, so I want to do what I can to encourage the project.

    I'm saying we need to hire Superman. Sheesh, pay attention everybody!

    If Superman III has taught us anything, it is that heating and squeezing coal does not lead to a cleaner burn, it leads to really big diamonds.

    Looking at the top-left corner, it is a java based app, so there's *some* hope yet.

  23. Re:Firefox is not the answer. on Microsoft to Issue Out-of-Cycle Patch for IE · · Score: 1

    I haven't seen that blank screen issue yet, but sometimes (often lately) when I click on a thread that hasn't gotten comments yet, I'll get the message "Nothing to see here". A couple reloads, and it lets me see the discussion.

  24. Re:Firefox is not the answer. on Microsoft to Issue Out-of-Cycle Patch for IE · · Score: 1, Redundant
    Ocassionally the text overlaps with the menu on the left side of /.

    A page refresh usually clears this up for me.

  25. Back to the old school on Nintendo DS Gets Sleeker Final Design, Same Name · · Score: 1
    It reminds me of the original NES controller. I'm not really in the market for a portable game console, but the retro look makes me start to consider it.

    I can't help but think that the resemblance to the old NES is intentional to try to make some sales to people (like me) still clinging to their youth.

    ...Off to play some Donkey Kong.
