  1. Re:Who cares? on African Americans and the Video Game Industry · · Score: 1

    Fact: Ninjas are mammals.

  2. Re:I disagree. on Nitpicking Wikipedia's Vulnerabilities · · Score: 1

    I completely agree with you that the ABC debate has some subtlety and nuance to it. One fact that is neither subtle or nuanced, however, is that it was built at Iowa State University (ISU), not "UoI" by which I assume you mean the University of Iowa.

    Your criticisms and call for accuracy fall a little flat when you whiff this basic fact.

  3. Lossless compression does exist. on Build High-End Audio System w/ Hard Drive Storage? · · Score: 5, Informative

    You really should consider some type of lossless compression. The "headache" is minimal, and although it isn't the 10x compression of its lossy brethern, 2x is nothing to completely ignore. http://flac.sourceforge.net/

  4. Re:Oregon Trail on Computer Game Improves Children's Hearing · · Score: 1

    Zeke has pneumonia. Sarah has a snakebite.

  5. Print a layout on Buying International Keyboards? · · Score: 1

    I learned the Dvorak key layout simply by having a printed sheet of paper next to my keyboard. Proper typing technique doesn't have you looking at your hands anyway.

  6. No worries on SCO Execs Dumping Stock · · Score: 2, Interesting
    David Boies' law firm, Boies, Schiller & Flexner, represents SCO. Boies represented former Vice President Al Gore in the 2000 election recount and tried the U.S. antitrust case against Microsoft.
    With those credentials under his belt, I expect him to slam dunk this case in a few days or so.
  7. Re:Or as Ellen Feiss would say... on Beep! Beep! You have Broken the Law. · · Score: 2, Funny

    That would be, like, a bummer.

  8. Re:Easy to cause trouble with on Beep! Beep! You have Broken the Law. · · Score: 4, Informative
    read the article: "The numbers are also checked manually and require the approval of a senior official before the bombardment can begin, he told the People's Daily. "

    I suppose if your enemy posted up your number all over the place *AND* you answered your phone trying to sell something, you'd get in trouble.

    BTW, if you made a few ads and posted them, people interested in the ads would spam the number in response to the ad, regardless of the state's actions
