  1. Sony DSC-F55 on Which Digital Camera Do You Recommend? · · Score: 1
    I recently bought a Sony DSC-F55. I was absolutely stoked about the purchase when it was happening.

    I've done alot of amature work with 35mm and medium format, and I liked the specs on this camera. Rotating Zeiss lens, 2x zoom 2.1 MP, ability to store MPEG movies, effects (black & white, sepitome, solarize, and negative).

    When I got the camera home, I immediately filled up a 64 meg flash card. Held something like 120+ images at 1600x1200.

    Then came the process of getting the pictures to the system. The only option is serial, and if you are in windows, a proprietary software. No drivers for making it a TWAIN source either. Sony's support system is like that apparently.

    In linux, conveniently, there was Gphoto, and it was handy, but took about 8-10 hours to download 50 pictures. That was unacceptable.

    To end the story, I like the camera, but if I want to take some pictures with it, I have to set aside a weekend to download them.

    Honestly, 15 people died? 15 thousand possibly, but 15?
    I don't honestly care if the govt used the church to do dirty work, the church still did it.
    A religion that preaches love, as you point out, yet lives hypocricy is not a valid institution to me.
    Again, to quote your words
    "By your works you shall be known".
    I dont think just talking about peace and love will do the same as showing it

  3. Heroes III on Heroes III Coming to Linux · · Score: 1

    Amazing. I had this dream a few weeks ago.
    Seriously tho, this game is amazing as far as pure wasting of time goes.
    I can count about 5-6 weeks in High School where I flipped a coin

  4. Headlines: Productivity increases. on Web Sites Shut Down · · Score: 1

    Productivity in the corporate world hit an all time new high today. Some authorities think it is because of a few certian "Web Sites" that were taken down due to some "technical difficulties".
