  2. Re:the lost art of the mix tape on Cassette Tapes On The Wane · · Score: 1

    The idea of a mix tape is to create a flow and a mood. Does your script do this?

  3. Re:Shark Repellent on How the Batsuit Works · · Score: 2, Informative

    The shark repellent was from the original movie, not the TV series. One of the best scenes. That and the one where he is trying to get rid of the bomb on the dock.

    Actually, if it sells for that long it is probably pretty good.

  7. Re:Original Kinetic Scupture Race on Baltimore Kinetic Sculpture Race Photos · · Score: 2, Interesting
    That's because of the "produce" they grow there.

  10. Re:He speaks the truth on Copy-and-Paste Reveals Classified U.S. Documents · · Score: 1
    I work in one now. Your rules may vary:

    I worked at a government laboratory for a while, and every employee learns the same rules about classified systems. Even though I wasn't working on classified systems, I knew that

    I work on classified systems.

    1) Everything that parent just said

    Not true. NO classified goes to a nonclassified. Never. Nada. Zilch. It is not done.

    2) Classified systems are not supposed to have any removable media drives or access to an unsecured part of the network.

    Not all the way true. Yes, they may not access an unsecured network but they may contain removable media drives as long as there are no unclassified computers in the room with the same removable media.

    3) Don't mess with the above rules under penalty of felony charges.

    Not really true. If you knowingly break the rules and leak classified information then be prepared to pay the piper. If there is an "incident" then be prepared to do the paperwork. When you work on the tech field in this environment then be prepared to be unhappy when the cleansing occurs (class data on a nonclass machine). It is not fun by any stretch of the imagination.

  12. Re:Copy... on Jobs Claims Microsoft Is Shamelessly Copying · · Score: 1

    It is the way of the world. iBrowse for the Amiga had tabbed browsing YEARS before anyone else but everyone thinks Mozilla/Firefox/whomever was the first.

    Everyone copies everyone else to a degree but will so what? Does MS copy Apple? Then those who run Windows get the benefit of a good idea. So Apple copies MS? Now the Mac users benefit.

    Let them deal with it. I run what I think meets my needs the best. Everyone should.

  14. Upgrade on Trent Reznor Challenges Music Norms · · Score: 1

  15. Re:shew is an obscure alternative spelling of show on Remote-Controlled Flies · · Score: 1

    Ever see the Ed Sullivan shew (US)? Show. He would be the one to blame. That is how he pronounced show.

    He broke The Beatles over here and put Elvis on the map along with all the dancing monkeys and acrobats from Russia.
