  1. Re:But did he know? on Verizon Can't Do Math · · Score: 1

    > This guy did the smart thing and had the staff memeber write down that they had quoted him right. Actually this might not help very much. Since all their reps (mis)read $0.002 as "point zero zero two cents", when you ask them to put "I quoted him point zero zero two cents per kB" in the notes, they'll probably write "I quoted him $0.002 per kB"...

  2. Re:knowing verizon... on Verizon Can't Do Math · · Score: 3, Insightful

    This was the only quote ever given to him. How could he know this is "outrageously cheap" and "obviously not correct"?

  3. Cheap speakers on How to Avoid Mobile Phone Interference w/ Speakers · · Score: 1

    This only happens to non-magnetically shielded el cheapo speakers.

  4. Re:typing on Advice on Learning Japanese? · · Score: 1
  5. Re:EMAIL ME IF YOU WANT THE FILE on Larry Page's Vision of the Future · · Score: 1

    I thought "bobNOSPAM" is 9 characters? :D

  6. China & Hong Kong? on SkypeIn Reaches Beta Users · · Score: 4, Informative

    The article incorrectly states that SkypeIn is available in "China & Hong Kong". It's only available in Hong Kong, not mainland China.

  7. Meanwhile on How VeriSign Could Stop Drive-By Downloads · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The beauty of certificates is, you decide who you trust. If you object to VeriSign's practice of issuing certificates to spyware/adware makers, simply don't choose to trust VeriSign's root certificate. This is only a temporary measure, I guess.

  8. Sold out on Bandai SpaceWarp Rereleased in Japan · · Score: 3, Informative

    Unfortunately it was a limited run of 1,000 sets (and they're already sold out).
