  1. Re:YES! $12! No need to hack it... on Juicebox Hacking · · Score: 1

    I have a PSP and a big Memory stick Duo , it cost in total over 300 Euros for the stuff i got ,
    Its not really the same market , i mean if these can be had for 12USD then add on a 512MB SD card for about 40 or so then your really in a completly difrent field of play here .

  2. After all on Longhorn Drops 'My' Prefixes · · Score: 1

    This is windows , you probably share it via the convineant Zombie network trojan installed by your freindly Global Black hats via the easy access features and buffer under/overflows .So My computer is not that relevant ,its "our computer".

  3. Hopefully on Sony May Outsource PSP Production · · Score: 1

    If they do outsource production , they do it to a company that is going to actualy test the TFT screens .
    I know all the crap about Dead Pixels are to be expected , But as i just said its crap .
    The screen is really rather small and i have 2 dead pixels on it which is completly silly .
    IThey are not that annoying and are out of the way but its the principle of the thing , on a screen of that size its fairly resonible to expect no dead pixels and from what ive heard its fairly commen on the PSP.

  13. Re:Social awkwardness != genius on Genetic Testing For Geekiness? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Speaking as someone who is socialy awkward and classified as agenius(I cant spell ,do not take that into account .. )I know all too well the misfits who get thrown into the catogry .
    All too often folks who are clearly of genius level inteligence are ignored in favour of quick witted kids who can make trucks with lego at age 2 .
    Genius though is an off title in many terms ,high IQ is not equalto genius.
    Einstein was not your model High IQ student , the same can be said for many .\
    Austism is not a mesure of IQ either ,No condition is . It just so hapens several of a group may show the signs but this does not make the rule

    Final Fantasy can not realy end , its non sequential and the games are just difrent RPGs with a commen evolving system.
    I am not a major FF fan but i do enjoy the games , honestly its just a small dip which hapens to anything long running .

    Yeah i never saw that as an efficent design concept especialy for heating as CRTs and CPUs do tend to heat up a bit .
    The speakers are a bit of a problem , they are fine for normal system sounds but if You put some music with some heavy Bass guitars through them and the monitor flickers .
    I think The HDD placement and the speakers are the only two problems I have with the eMac.
    Other than that i love the computer to bits (though it is going to get replaced by a G5 Imac next year) It really is the true eveloution of the old iMac G3s .

  22. So... on Sony's New DRM Technique · · Score: 1

    "Under the new solution, tracks ripped and burned from a copy-protected disc are copied to a blank CD in Microsoft's Windows Media Audio format. The DRM embedded on the discs bars the burned CD from being copied."

    This restricts copying to WMA , which is frankly not a useable format for me . If i copy an Audio CD with this DRM , i will Copy it direct to a loseless format such as flac first then to as many Discs as i see fit for backup or fairuse. If it plays in my machine ,then i can copy it without the DRM .

    This will not work ,plain and simple
