    hey mate, people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw the first stone... US Morals... please... don't get me started.

  4. Re:I met a guy with that once on "Dilbert" Creator Gets Voice Back · · Score: 1

    Being a singer, I can understand pretty well the differences between talking and singing. Sometimes if I'm in conversation I can be a little bit of a quiet talker, and the words come out a bit muffled, but my neighbours will tell you, I've got pretty loud singing voice...

    First theres the whole pitch thing that you have to think of in singing, whereas pitch in talking is done automatically (maybe talking in the one tone would help?)

    Also when you sing you have to make sure to lock in the diaphragm - this helps project the sound, which might also distract the brain from concentrating on whats happening at the vocal level - side note, locking in the diaphragm is a good technique to use when public speaking...

    Some of the techniques Scott said he was using, sound exactly what I do when im practicing my vocal scales - its all about training brain or more acurately the hypothalamus to automatically do things a certain way.

    Any more good ideas you can give them that'll piss people off?

  6. So what... on Microsoft to Give Away Software · · Score: 1

    If Microsoft want to give away free software for whatever reason, let them - people don't have to install it if they don't want... Its just like free newspapers/magazines that rely on advertising for their revenue.

  7. why should we care? on What Earth Without People Would Look Like · · Score: 1

    Can't we just hire Slartibartfast to make us a new one?

  8. probably a dumb question... on USB To Go Wireless · · Score: 4, Funny

    but... if i've got one of these devices in my backpack and i walk past a whole heap of computers, lets say in an office for example... is it going to try and install it automatically?

    "Windows has recognised your UWB vibrator and is installing it now......"

  9. yeah maybe not.... on Human Species May Split In Two · · Score: 1

    I'm sure I've read around the traps that

    a) Blonde hair will be bread out of the gene pool in the next 100 to 200 years
    b) Asians have the most dominant genes of the gene pool, so I would assume our traits over time to become more along those lines
    c) That while females are slowly over time breeding better looks and traits, males are actually getting uglier, albeit stronger and taller and with more heavy set features...

    I do agree that there will be a split of species... anyone from melbourne, australia will agree with me that it's already happening when I mention the town Collingwood (read aussie white trash town)

  10. Re:Smashing Apples on Apple vs Microsoft- Who's the Copycat? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    ".....Am I missing something? XP, XP, XP, XP... the only differences between most being software bundles, hardware compatibility, and driver support. and he fails to mention that pretty much all of those also have a price tag well over $100....."

    What would apple know about hardware compatibility?
