  1. Re:It may seem like a bad name, but it isn't on Joomla's Project Director Talks 1.1 · · Score: 1

    But would it be Native American? Native United States of American or Native Cherokee?

  2. It may seem like a bad name, but it isn't on Joomla's Project Director Talks 1.1 · · Score: 1

    Oh no, Joomla, what a weird name! ... Except that Gimp or Apache make me think of a bondage loving dude in Pulp Fiction and an Indian ('Indian' speaking of bad naming)

  3. Vinyl on Is the Physical CD Still A Viable Market? · · Score: 1

    Considering you can still buy many new albums as a LP Vinyl album the CDDA format has a very long way to go before it dies. Plus, even though I own several computers ( three in my college dorm alone, and I'm bringing up more next year). I am pretty much diametrically opposed to paying for something without recieving a physical mark of ownership. Plus CDs play in my hi-fi with far less noise than any of my computers produce on their osund system. Put simply, programs like iTunes do nothing to replace physical media, the lessening of audio quality is noticeable to anyone with better headphones than iPod earbuds. Not everyone likes to do everything on a computer, not even I do, and I spend most of my time on PCs, but PCs don't just work, a stereo does.

    So yes, there is still a market for CDs, if it is becoming more niche, then so be it, but audio lovers will always buy physical copies (be they Vinyl, CDDA, DVD-Audio, or SACD). Sure less people who just want the music casually have less of a reason to buy a CD, but there are a lot of music lovers in this country!

  4. weee on I/O Electronic Brush for Painting · · Score: 1

    It looks like a big tube around a webcam, it's about the right size to hold the orb of my logitech quickcam anyhow (go spca5xx!)

  5. get it cheaper on Das Keyboard: Hit Any Key · · Score: 1

    The Das Keyboard is a 'standard IBM' usb Keytronic keyboard without keycaps. I'm serious, compare images of the two if you want. Same exact keyboard. Same 'key weighting' and the Keytronic costs 1/5th of the 100USD das keyboard. Actually I think it's my favorite keyboard except maybe my A500's

  6. Now we know the final boss on Google Hires Vint Cerf · · Score: 4, Funny

  7. This isn't a fuel cell people on Making Fire From Water · · Score: 1

    Fuel Cells actually combine water and hydrogen, not the other way around, this product splits them and burns them. Thats why fuel cells only produce H20 as a waste product. This is also why fuel cells are so expensive (about as much as a car to put them in), and burning hydrogen from water happens every year in highschool physics. This whole clean fuel thing well be back again when power plants and cars have turned many once dry places into swamps ;)
