  1. Re:My recommendations would be... on Portable CD-R/RW/MP3 Player? · · Score: 1

    Another vote for iRiver. I've owned the iMP-350 for a while now. It simply is fantastic. I use it every day while on the train to and from work. Battery life is amazing (I use the provided additional external AA battery pack and rechargable NiMHs).

    ...and you'd have Mac users paying $99 for the upgrade to iDoom 0.0.1

    DNA talks a lot in "Salmon of Doubt" about his numerous problems with Disney and Hollywood in general and getting an acceptable script for the movie.

    Having someone do a re-write of the script after his death is Disney's way of raping the corpse.

    Or maybe the editor needs to learn how...well how to do anything really.

    Yet another moronic story approved by /.'s in-house fuckwad.

    That's a load of crap. I've posted many mirrors on my webspace for slashdot and the machine and bandwidth usage have been fine.

    Camera back for the 4x5 large format camera has been beyond 1GP for quite some time. Look ma, no stitching!

  8. Re:Mirror on Three New Releases (And Other News) From Mozilla · · Score: 1

    http://www.phule.net/stuff/thunderbird-0.3-win32.z ip

    Win32 build of Thunderbird 0.3

    It looks like the Mozilla.org ftp servers are starting to recover somewhat. Depending on bandwidth usage, I may have to remove these Win32 files after a day or so.

    Here's another mirror for the Win32 build of Firebird 0.7

    The file is dated Sept. 29th.

    Me thinks you have a pre-0.7 build.

    "The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench. A long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side."

  13. Re:"couldn't care less" on BIND Strikes Back Against VeriSign's Site Finder · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Wrong again.
    Maybe at one time, way back when the English language was first being developed, but that argument is now a load of dingos kidneys.

    Cliches are especially prone to scrambling because they become meaningless through overuse. In this case an expression which originally meant "it would be impossible for me to care less than I do because I do not care at all" is rendered senseless by being transformed into the now-common "I could care less." Think about it: if you could care less, that means you care some. The original already drips sarcasm, so it's pointless to argue that the newer version is "ironic." People who misuse this phrase are just being careless.

    Or, as with Eddie From Ohio you do all these things and remain fully independent because you don't want to be part of a RIAA label.

    They have a huge fan-base, allow board-taping (and distribution of the mp3s from said board-taping) at their shows, have a very active email list/group and offer RA (for better or worse) downloads from their website.

    They are, in their own words "fiercely independent" and want nothing to do with the mess that is a major label.
