  1. MP3gain equivalent for AAC? on Apple's Move May Make AAC Music Industry Standard · · Score: 1

    One of the main reasons I still stick to MP3 is VBR and MP3gain, which lets me "normalize" all my songs. I haven't found another utility that lets me do this. Apparently, MP3gain has experimental AAC support, but the software hasn't been updated in two years.

  2. Looks like Longhorn sidebar on Google Releases GDS 2.0 · · Score: 1

    Does anyone else think this looks like Longhorn's sidebar? The only difference is, it actually looks useful in Google's version.

  3. Re:Remember asbestosis? on Researchers Make Bendable Concrete · · Score: 1

    Every breath you take is filled with micron-sized dust and more; just look at the dust in a typical carpeted house. The asbestos risk came more from its carcinogenic effects, than anything else.

  4. Indium... on Experimental Transistor Breaks 600 Gigahertz · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I'm surprised no one has noted that indium is rare enough that this transistor wouldn't be practical. Most of the indium is used in the transparent electrode (indium tin oxide) for LCD screens, etc. and it's in very short supply. Certainly not like silicon.

  5. Space...the next brewery on Bacteria More Virulent in Microgravity · · Score: 3, Funny

    Soon the biggest occupant of near space will be giant breweries, with giant pipes connecting them to the ground to feed beer-lovers all over the world.

  6. Balancing while wretching on 3G Waves Causes Headaches, Sharpens Memory · · Score: 1

    How can one be able to recall anything from memory when you're nauseous and perhaps vomiting? Maybe you can spell out the answer with your heaves...

  7. It's a suitable punishment... on House OKs Life Sentences For Hackers · · Score: 1

    I haven't been able to go through all 927 comments, but this applies only to hackers that maliciously hack into systems that run critical equipment concerning health and life-support. As I understand it, this isn't just about someone getting onto someone else's computer and messing with a few files.
