  1. Re:Other archival projects on Digitizing Rare Vinyl · · Score: 1

    The Library of Congress has an archival project:

    http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=1216161

    This is going the other way - from digital to 78's. Shellac 78's appear to be the best archival format.

    Dude, you cited to an April Fool's joke!

  2. Who is the ultimate source of cool... on Apple, the New Microsoft? · · Score: 1

    If Apple is the penultimate source? In other words, according to this, Apple is the second-greatest source of cool, so there must be one that's better.

  3. Re:BBC Dr Who on Online Doctor Who Documentary · · Score: 1

    Netflix has the episodes that have been released on DVD in the US, so you can check them out that way.

  4. Re:A great book on Interview with the Creator of BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    My nephew has been diagnosed with asperger's. He is four years old and has been in special classes for the last year and a half. He has really turned around, so that now he acts pretty much like any other four year old, for the most part.

    My nephew's father, however, is another story. He has convinced himself that he has asperger's, too. He uses it to take advantage of the people around him. He indulges in his various obsessions with gaming and sports, instead of spending time with his son or his wife. These indulgences have increased since he decided he has asperger's, and it is his excuse.

    Similarly, whenever his son acts in ways that embarrasses him, etc., he pins that on asperger's. At least as far as the father is concerned, he has marked his bad habits with a name, and thinks he should have free reign to act out.

    Obviously, this annoys me greatly.

  5. MS & OpenOffice compatability on StarOffice 7, GNOME-Office 1.0 Released · · Score: 1

    How well does OpenOffice handle Word files? Can you import AND export, so that someone with Word can open a file you created using OpenOffice? With just about every other computer out there running Word, this could be a potential brick wall.
