    I meant I was being a jackass for pointing out his spelling error, not because I happen to be correct.

  4. Imagine a ... on Hard Drive of the Future: Ram Drive · · Score: 0, Redundant

    ...

    Wow that looks amazing. I might actually consider buying one if it didn't cost twice as much as my current computer...

  5. Re:Not a contradiction. on New Audio Disc Formats and Copyrights · · Score: 1

    Oops, read that wrong, you're right. My bad.

  6. Contradictions on New Audio Disc Formats and Copyrights · · Score: 3, Insightful

    In the second paragraph of the article it says "But many audiophiles are cool to the virtual padlocks, which could prove the undoing of one or both formats." WTF? Who exactly is "cool to the padlocks"? They don't give any names...

    Further down in the article it even admits that "In a recent Gartner G2 survey, 88 percent of respondents said they believed it legal to make copies of CDs for personal backup use while 77 percent felt they should be able to copy a CD for personal use in another device. "

    Regardless, if it can be played, it can be recorded. I'd like to see the look on David Migdal's face when the encryption is broken before the first disk is released...

  7. how will this affect me? on Europe Goes To Venus; Mars Comes to Us · · Score: 5, Insightful

    But will any geek actually get off his/her ass and look outside?

  9. take a look at this on USB Key-Sized MP3 Player With LCD Display · · Score: 1

    The iRiver iFP-180T lets you record FM radio, but I'm not sure if it's programmable.

    It does look like a great mp3 player though.

  10. quite an odyssey on Galileo To Commit Mechacide · · Score: 1

    Will it sing "Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer please" as it bursts into flames?
