  1. Cattle prod on Independent Developer Projects in the Workplace? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    "...ways to stimulate creativity at their workplace?" Two words: cattle prod.

  2. Re:Learning by Tech Immersion on Learning a Foreign Language with The Sims · · Score: 1

    Just to get the word out I've begun compiling a list of beginner japanese terms in a CSV. It's only at 44 terms at the moment but over the next few days I will find the time to allow users to recommend additions. Hope it helps, http://jpbarto.freeshell.org/japanese.csv

  3. Re:Credibility on Ex-Britannica Editor Reviews Wikipedia · · Score: 1

    That's fine, people will use it anyway.

    I have a better idea though. As an educator how about you assess wikipedia, and determine if you and (I'm assuming you're employed) your educational institution should support wikipedia; be a leader not a follower.

  4. Re:Cochlear Implants on The Future of PC-Audio: Interview With Keith Kowal · · Score: 1

    Now THAT is a constructive response. Thank you.

  5. Re:Wireless speakers, is that all you've got? on The Future of PC-Audio: Interview With Keith Kowal · · Score: 1

    Allow me to be more specific, an audio jack directly behind the back of the ear. Not really too much practical reason, or advantage over normal head phones (which go in or on the surface of your ear), however imagine what audio relayed over an audio jack could mean for a deaf person if the audio jack could be wired directly into the auditory areas of the brain. At a glance it seems a simpler proposition than the feeding of visual inputs into the brain, which they are having success with.

  6. Wireless speakers, is that all you've got? on The Future of PC-Audio: Interview With Keith Kowal · · Score: 1

    While I can't blame him for being realistic, how about promising me something a little more exciting like iPod headphones without the 'phone' part, just plug them directly into my ear?

  7. Re:Go PA! on Gamers Are Good People, Too · · Score: 1

    I caught this last night when catching up on my comics and it seems that already they are doing fairly well. Although many of the items are listed as 'unavailable / out of stock' which is a shame.

  8. Nothing ever lasts. on New Anti-Swap CDs Hit Shelves · · Score: 1

    Anyone wanna take bets on how long before someone cracks this new 'feature'?

  9. Re:How can this even be a question? on Directors Counter-Sue Movie Bowdlerizing Company · · Score: 1

    I have to agree. WalMart has been doing the same practice to the music CDs they sell for years. Ever bought a Tupac album from ol' Wally World? Every f*n word is blanked out and every motherf*r is wiped clean away. Is that the way Tupac originally intended it no. But that is also why I don't buy music CDs there anymore. What do you care if someone is editing a movie to sell to someone with different morals and values than you. CleanVideo is providing a service that allows families to enjoy movies like 'The Rock' and many other great movies without the (most times) unnecesary sex and profanity. If you don't like it, don't buy it, but don't make it illegal.
