    Now you made me go get all nostalgic about the Portuguese festival. That was one hell of a time. Though, unfortunately, I lived in one of those "other" wards.

    Not sure if this is the site you are referring to but I have used it to help me aim the antenna in the right direction.

    I've never trusted those deer. They're always twitching their heads around and looking over their shoulders all paranoid like. If they weren't up to something, why are they so nervous? Just never sat right with me.

    While I technically don't need 600 cyclic rounds per minute to kill a human either, the extra firepower would come in handy when I need to stop a rampaging herd of deer.

    I've always found Smurfs a little too crunchy for my tastes but to each their own.

  6. Re:Payback's a bitch on Media Server Manufacturer Wins in Court · · Score: 1

    Ask 10 people on the street what a Media Server even is, and not a single one will be able to tell you.
    Personally, the fact that those 10 people allegedly have no idea what a media server is less concerning than why you would come to a known tech site that contains "News for Nerds" in the motto and expect to find a discussion on the politics and posturing taking place in the Middle-East. But here I am feeding the trolls, when will I learn. Maybe we should put up some signs or something.

    The WiiPorn channel would be worth turning WiiConnect24 back on for.

  8. Re:I'm one of those rogue users... on IT Departments Fear Growing Expertise of Users · · Score: 1

    They could just monitor SSH traffic. Last place I worked any SSH traffic bound for IP addresses that we weren't responsible for set off alarms. First offense was a warning with the statement that the next offense would result in instant termination. Wouldn't work for every case but it is possible.

    From the user manual for the LVM-47w1 page 20, Input Signals section: http://www.westinghousedigital.com/pdf/59_User_Man ual.pdf

    DVI-D x 2 (HDCP support) / RCA (L/R) x 2 DVI1 & DVI2 supports up to 1080P
    I have the LVM-37w1 and have not had any problems with DVI-HDCP between my HD cable box and the monitor.

  11. Re:Economics 101, courtesy of Sony and E-Bay on Grey Markets Compared - PS3 vs. Wii · · Score: 1

    When I return items at the Bestbuy in Hawaii as soon as they see debit card on the receipt they just hand me cash. Haven't had one yet try and put the credit back to the debit card. I know each retail store has it's own interpretation of policy but is it really this different?

    Or she could read it and figure out how to talk to me. That way I can understand what she really means without the need for a translator. It goes both ways.

    GP and you give them way too much credit....either superman (yes people are still using this one) or password. Unless the system allows blank passwords, then you know exactly what it will be.

  14. Re:Returning text books on DRM Lite for Electronic Textbooks · · Score: 1

    Some guy around my college figured out there was a market for used books. He would park his pickup just outside campus at the beginning and end of each semester. His prices, buying and selling, were better than the campus bookstore, although he was an easy fence for stolen books.

    You can bump the 8gp upwards of 300gp if you use the persuasion mini-game to force your rep down then bribe it back up. I was able to get him to have 473gp a button press.
