Do all of these ridiculously innovative features exist on any other model besides the vx8000? I got the vx8300 from Verizon in January. It doesn't show you the clock while you are talking. My phone keeps lists of missed, received, and dialed calls. Each list is only 30 entries long. That means my missed and dialed only go back to April, and my received makes it to March.
Either you don't make many calls or you underestimate the crippling which VzW, etc. puts on their wares.

Is this a Firefox thing, or do people really keep typing carets and capital letters in the middle of their posts? And if it's intentional, is that a/. thing?
Sir Gates, huh? I did not know that. This sets the stage for future conflicts:
Now, the OSS Rebels must use The Source to defeat the evil Knight Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire Gates... [deep breath] and his Microsoft Minion.
They must smash the Windows of the Death Suite aka Office!
I don't care if I'm not the first person to come up with any of this. This is the first time I'm hearing it, so I am mildly proud of myself. Too bad it's buried this deep in the comments.

Oh well...
I encoded a school project using VirtualDub, DivX 5.02, and Vorbis. The only hope to keep the audio in sync was to use DivX Player, and even then, there was a chance of it going out of sync.
Of course, the solution was probably OGM containment, but I'd already wasted enough time and couldn't sit around trying to figure out whether OGM was what I needed and whether I had to add this to the list of codecs I had to keep on the network along with my AVIs just to show it on my teachers' machines.
Looking back, I should've just used LAME audio since the bitrate wasn't low enough to make a difference.
According to Linux1394, my drive (LaCie d2 Firewire Hard Drive 200GB) "works great". I'm pretty sure the internal Texas Instruments 1394 hardware is supported too.
I dunno what site I was on in October, but it was (old, ugly, outdated!!)... less helpful. I think it was some kind of kernel add-on from before 1394 was integrated (if there was a such a time).
Anyway, one of these days, I'll get around to setting Linux up on this thing!
So, if the next Knoppix build were to use this kernel, would my external FireWire drive work on startup?
I'm still kinda starting out with Linux, etc., so I'm not really sure whether "IEEE1394 connectivity" means what I think it does. Please bear with me.
I haven't spent a lot of time tinkering with any of this, and wasn't sure if IEEE1394 was supported fully, partially, in customized kernels, manually set up...
Also, if someone actually reads this, does it make any sense for me to try to partition and install Knoppix on this drive, or should I put the OS on the internal drive?

The ol' Tandy Sensation:P needed more space (came with 200 MB). Since RadioShack no longer sold/supported their own PCs, we went to the no-name computer store. They transferred the files to a bigger hard drive and gave us back the machine. The poor thing was never the same.
Random programs stopped working. It didn't take long for me to figure out that something called Visual Basic runtimes had somehow magically disappeared from my hard drive.
Nothing ever happens to the computers at my house, thank goodness, because I would've handcuffed myself to the CD tray before letting another "computer specialist" touch a machine from my house.
A couple years back, my parents ignored my rants and made me call a guy to figure out why Windows was broken.
Tell me why the guy we paid $50+ had the same methods as me: pull out MS-DOS manual, look up commands. The difference came when I realized the scanner had renamed 10 system files. He couldn't figure out what was wrong and suggested reformatting.
Questions: Why did Symantec acquire Quarterdeck but discontinue all definition updates? Why did uninstalling the scanner fuck up Windows and permanently fry the mouse? Why does this clown still have a job? Why am I in college if all I need to make money is DOS manuals?
Many more questions but that's much, much more than enough for my first post...

Well, Mr. Jordan...
I could be mistaken, but it looks like you've been slashdotted!
I was trying to find out what events were available in Georgia.

Hmm... How many Nigerian Slashdotters are there?
I prefer to spank this monkey.
Well, my school considers computer science a branch of engineering, so what you gotta say now, my fellow stupid?
Oh, I get it. So it's kinda like the MS Word track changes?

OK, all of you moderators get in line. Time for a Breathalyzer test!
That comment seemed pretty relevant to me. Stay off the Chronic.
And that housewife ain't too bad looking either!
Actually, I was pointing to the fact that difference in Slashdot trademark ownerships - Andover.Net (OSDN) vs. BlockStackers (CmdrTaco & Co.)
I haven't been on here that long, but that's what it looked like to me.
BTW, use this link instead, then find trademark search yourself.
Also, maybe I'm making assumptions again, but the "Mozilla" entry seems to have branded merchandise trademarked.
Mozilla is still registered to Netscape Corporation (now Time Warner) in the US and EU.
Interesting... I had to see this for myself: Trademark Electronic Search System.
Search Term: mozilla
Field: ALL

That was exactly what I thought of when you said that! I heard it on Internet radio last month.
"Did I tell you no cookies before dinner?"
"Uh huuuuuh."
"What are you doing?"
"Taking a cookie?"
"WHY?!"
"I don't knoooow!"
You know what they say people, be nice to your kids, because someday you're going to have to rely on them being nice to you.
My grandma always tells us that whatever disrespect we show my mom and her will be the exact same shit we get from our kids.
Maybe it's a Nigerian thing.
Actually, I guess it's not really the same saying is it.
"So if I sleep with the boy next door, my kids are gonna be gay no matter what?"... Bad example, but it's only my second post!
This reminds me of an incident about 8 years ago:
