  1. Re:Considering I'm an IT Technician on Correlation Between Stress and Technology? · · Score: 1

    Well, the problem is you got promoted and you tried to hold on to your ethics...managers can't afford ethics... too much stress, try being un-ethical, your stress level will fall.

    That is of course assuming that that tv sitcom started out with any "real viewing material". I think you would likely benefit more watching grass grow for 5 minutes.

    The grandparent was partly mistaken... and slightly confused

    the universe if it is expanding at anything greater than .5c and many posit that it is... is in fact growing FTL...but not in every direction..but the net effect is FTL since .50..01+.50..01=1.0..02 so objects are reaching seperation velocities of C+ which is not to be confused with C++

    Translation for those who wondered


    And When we were on dialup at 300 baud that made sense.

    of course so did all lower case because that saved 1 bit.

    Ok 43.5# != 30... however 30 * ~1.5=~43.5..

    or you could cut out the pauses, and those long annoying fake audience applause/laugh bits which are just filler for jokes you wouldn't get otherwise...

    #Note: 43.5 is the minimum allowed length of an hour of tv minus commercials.. 22.5 is the minimum half hour... so you will also note that two half hours is longer than one hour.it used to be 24 and 47 and IIRC once was 26 and 51..

  12. Time compression on Timeshifting: Cram More Into Life · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Save more time by using software to strip out the pauses and slightly speed up the audio.. up to about 1.5x... That way you can watch an hour show in 30 minutes.. once you strip out the commercials, pauses and laugh track...

    perhaps that is because in Japan the attendant can or will fix it whereas in the US the attendant will either say "Tough Luck" or "go bang the side till it works better".

    Actually you are wrong, most video dvds are the 4.7 capacity, but thanks for playing. I've ripped most of my collection for watching on my computer... dvd drive on one computer video and sound on a different one and ~80% were 4.7.

    Well, without a thumb you will also have trouble holding the measuring rod, or a gun, or a stick, so... I think its fairly safe to discriminate against those thumbless peoples.
