  1. Re:As a small adult products dealer... on New .XXX Top Level Domain · · Score: 1

    I agree with your arguments, but i'm confused over your statement of non-nudity... (not that I have any issues with THAT, :) )

    I mean, the backround image, whilst very appealing to me, is probably considered NSFW in most people's books.

    And the partner sites, while I bet you don't have control over, have a fun looking lass on them as well.

    I'm just saying. :)

    Fuck that, just build a cell phone into a tampon... no more worrying about breaking it, and since they have plastic in them anyway, not much more waste...

    Good old sanyo 500 reds, eh?

    Why/how are you wringing out LiPo's, if I might enquire... When I was involved last, 2003, they hadn't figured a way to use them except in the smallest park flyer. Might be interesting if something new had come up...

    Catch with those is trees; I'm only 2 miles from one, but it might as well be 2*10^23 miles for all the good it is... Apparently trees, or more precisly, all the water in them, make ideal shielding for 2.4 ghz signals. We hooked up some seriously powerful equipment, and it never got a peep. What was sad was it was in the dead of winter, without all the leeves on the trees, so summer months would have been less then less then worthless. FWIW, anyway. :-)

    Just in case any non native english speaker (amd maybe some natives too) are wondering how you pronounce the word "Confuzzled", it is (at least in Missouri) said "Con-FUSE-elde"... But IANAG (I am not a Grammarist), so if anyone has a better phonitic transcription of it, please jump in.

    I don't know about your afraid to fly figure...

    I took a flight from KSTL to KDTW last year, a 737-200, and it was frigging PACKED.. I got the last seat on the thing without having to take a later flight (overbooked).

    But maybe it was a fluke, i don't know.

    what the hell are you talking of?

    the Jedi Academy trilogy, was good.. until I read any other EU books. It was also only 7 years after RotJ, so you theory is torn to shreads.

    NOW, having said all that, what would make a "KICKASSSSS®" movie(s), would be M. Stackpole's X-Wing novels... It has honest to $DEITY good characters in it. If only they could get Denis Lawson to reprise his part, but I think it's been too long for him too.

    Anyway, that's my opinion. :D

    Transcribe? Whattttttt?

    It's the 21st century, shouldn't we be pushing for speech-to-text applications for this sort of thing?

    I thought apple had a new thing just for things like this, to record a meeting, and dump it to a document later.

    All that said, transcription is probably more accurate, especially if you do a lot of it.
