Let me just second this. I do a lot of work in bars and other loud places. I used to use those disposable foamy deals. They have a horrible frequency response, so you never really hear what's going on that well. They also irritated my ears after awhile. I shelled out for molded earplugs with proper filters in them. They are amazing!
First off, because they are custom molded to my ear, they don't put pressure on the ear canal in order to stay in place. Much more comfortable. The coolest thing is how they work though. When I first tried them on, I thought they weren't working very well. I could still hear everything just fine. It was rather odd. However, after wearing them a few times in high noise situations, I noticed something. When I left the noise...my ears weren't ringing. And that's the best part. I can hear everything and it sounds normal, and yet my ears are protected.
Give 'em a try. Yes, they are expensive But they're protecting something you can't get back once you lose.
Heh I wish...though as someone else already noted, I don't think Hara will be covered. Would be sweet though...walk around the flea market with a wifi PDA and check online prices while browsing.
Anyone interested in setting up a/. meet-n-greet at the Hamvention?
530 Sorry, the maximum number of allowed clients (10) already connected
Man, what a massive client limit. Ironically, it's probably what will keep their server from grinding to a total halt...though I shudder to think how many 530's it's spewing out at the moment.
Uh...you might want to think about that one a bit. Remember the story about the guy who got canned for trying to do this to his boss? Sure, he was correct, the boss was a moron, but upper management didn't take too kindly to this IT guy's actions. Anyone have a link to the story?
Hang some old ram on a string! No, I'm serious. Or, find an old CPU and hang that on the tree. I've got a nice looking Cyrix 6x86 that I took out of a box someone was throwing out. It's not a nice goldish chip cap and the pins are golden too...would look nice on a tree. Except...I'm Jewish.
Cue the Hanukkah bush jokes!
Uh...why are users going to buy new software for their router from Linksys. Unless you meant something along the lines of; take a loss on the router, make profit on the NIC.
"Additionally, any other files you have lying about--photographs, MP3s, movies--are indexed by their filename."
Did anyone else misread that as "...any other files you are lying about..." Had me scared for a second there. Uh, not that I have files that are private or anything.
Um, you might be able to, but it may not be as you remember. People I know are the ones who wrote it, however they sold it. The new owners have fired anyone who was creatively involved with the show as they wanted to "take it in a different direction". I have no idea where they're heading.
Just a bit of a nitpick, but in the article they mention the PIC16c74 as the chip being used. That would be rather impossible...the 16c74 has 40 pins and doesn't do USB. They're most likely using the PIC16c745. Both are manufactured by Microchip Technologies based out of Chandler, Arizona.
No problem. I'll just write a book and call it "The Universe". Then my publisher will start threatening everyone in the universe to give me everything they own. Soon I will own everything! Muahahaha.
Why would you need to change lanes, if there was no need to pass? If the cars aren't under your control, you won't be going significantly different speeds and need to pass. Ok, admittedly, you need to change lanes to turn, etc, but this sim doesn't seem to cover that.

The cynic in me sees this as kind of funny. It's up to the elected officials to change this right? The very officials elected by these machine...

40 years? Imagine all the trouble I get with my pets.com tatoo!
And this is why we need a +1 Ew and a +1 Painful tag.
Yet more and more CDs are coming copy protected, and won't play on some CD players. You also can't rip them for use on your MP3 plater.
Not limited by DRM eh? Think again.
You're right. Who would switch away from Netscape to that new fangled IE?
Oh wait...
Funny thing is, I thought the same thing when Google first came out. What was wrong with Yahoo and Webcrawler. Well, we know how that turned out.
Or...maybe not
So back then, we used equipment for music to copy computer programs. As opposed to today, when we use computers to copy music. What an age we live in!

You mean misspelled, late, and duplicated a few times?
So that would be...iPod Head? You want a vibrate function on your mp3 player?
