  1. David Hasselhoff on Should You Trust Website Customer Reviews? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I believe every one of the glowing 449 reviews for the verbal swordsman and musical orgasm that is David Hasselhoff

  2. Re:seems http of povray.org is already slashdotted on POV-Ray 3.5 Rendered · · Score: 1, Informative

    In the mean time http://povray.co.uk is still up and will quench your appetite for 3.5 news.

  3. Good Question on Core IT Interview Questions? · · Score: 0

    I remember reading this in an article in a Fortune magazine earlier this spring. I'm sorry that I don't remember more details.

    The article was talking about interviewing skills, getting a job in the tough economic times, etc...

    Someone who was in charge of HR for a largish firm said that his favorite question to ask was, "What would your mother say is your worst quality?" He said the question is like truth serium! Its hard to lie, when your mother is at the front of your mind, and he said he gets all sorts of interesting and revealing answers.

    anyhoo, my $.02

  4. Re:Not only are the included cartridges half full. on HP Must Defend Half-Empty "Economy" Ink Cartridges · · Score: 0

    He is pointing out that they sell 2 different products, using the same packaging, but one of them is only filled half way.

    Correct. I was not implying that they contained the same amount of ink, but rather that the container size is deceptive.

    Their is no visual cue that you get more in the large cartridge, and thus many people still by the small one (or don't know about the large). HP makes more money on the smaller ones if doller per ink volume is indicative of that.

  5. Not only are the included cartridges half full... on HP Must Defend Half-Empty "Economy" Ink Cartridges · · Score: 2, Informative

    Not only are the OEM cartridges that come with the printers are half full. So are most of the refill cartridges people buy.

    See this link for the 'refil' cartridge at 34 bucks.

    See this link for the 'large' cartridge at a 'bargain' 55 bucks.

    They're the same size.

    I wonder what www.phpbuilder.com uses, Postgres or MySQL, because right now, its slow as molasses.

  8. what about couples? on Could Cell Phones Replace Regular Phones? · · Score: 1

    I'd love to drop my land line and get a cell phone but I'd have to get two, one for me and one for my wife. Is anyone in this same situation? Do you have two cell phones and no landline? Is it financially viable?
