[2007-12-07 14:47:37] - yes yes. it says a lot of things that aren't found in practice. it's a guideline, not an analysis of what's out there in the wild. ~a
[2007-12-07 14:32:20] - a: It also says wikipedia is not censored in there, which is blatantly untrue.

[2007-12-07 09:44:07] - paul: i remember when i had to get a ton of cash from an ATM at 711 ($300 i think) i got a few hundreds from it. - mig
[2007-12-07 09:14:53] - a: Yeah, I hate paying unnecessary fees. You might be right, though, because I also don't want to carry around a lot of cash. -Paul

[2007-12-07 02:13:54] - paul: trying to avoid atm fees? this is one of the cases where the atm fee might actually be worth it (to avoid holding too much cash at one time) ~a
[2007-12-07 01:26:39] - Anybody know how I can trade some twenty dollar bills for some hundreds? It seems ATMs do not give out anything higher than a twenty.

[2007-12-04 12:46:24] - Gurkie: Phantom Hourglass is the name of the new Zelda game. I doubt I am going to buy it and then hate it. Sorry.
-paul[2007-12-04 12:30:26] - Paul: What is Phantom Hourglass? and get Zelda. (and decide you hate it and give it to me) ~gurkie
[2007-12-04 09:28:22] - paul: I've heard really good things about Phantom Hourglass too - vinnie
[2007-12-03 20:29:23] - a: no it wouldn't - some of my stations repeat a particular song every 20-30 songs. one of my friends had an evanescence station which played "bring me to life" about every 3 hours. if he could skip 40 songs to hear "bring me to life" on demand, it would only be 60 ms delay? that's too short - aaron
[2007-12-03 18:57:59] - aaron: let the user play whatever song they want
. . . but seriously, you could limit the skips but have the limit be much bigger and some sort of exponential factor. i.e. you can skip 20 times in a row, then you have to wait 10ms. . . . then you can skip 20 more times in a row, then you have to wait 20ms . . . 40ms . . . it would only prevent scripting. ~a[2007-12-03 18:53:56] - Aaron: Well, I thought it would be a fun multiplayer game for the trip to Vegas and I heard that it was a halfway decent game. Honestly, I'm more interested in that then the Final Fantasy game right now. -paul
[2007-12-03 18:48:33] - a: maybe you can think of a better fix, it's an interesting problem. - aaron
[2007-12-03 18:47:37] - a: Well the record companies' worst nightmare would be that a user could script Pandora to get it to play any song they wanted in demand. i can't really think of a better workaround, i think it's a good comprimise - aaron
[2007-12-03 18:46:07] - paul: i'm surprised mario party DS is even in your top 5 considering the series' only redeeming feature is multiplayer, which i presume you won't be participating in. i've heard good things about phantom hourglass (that is what you mean right?) - aaron
[2007-12-03 17:47:03] - paul: solar striker. ~a
[2007-12-03 17:32:18] - Ok, so, here's another question for the message board: What Nintendo DS game should I buy? Contra 4, Final Fantasy: Revenant Wings, Legend of Zelda or Mario Party DS? -Paul
[2007-12-03 16:03:45] - a: newegg has at least 4 under 100 bucks, the cheapest being 59.99 ~gurkie
[2007-12-03 16:01:25] - a: im telling you what i heard, i have no proof to back up that claim, although if I have enough downtime today I will try... ~gurkie
[2007-12-03 15:45:13] - aaron: Yep, those are the Halo composers. I'll have to add some of the music to my stations. Thanks for the info! - Kaleb
[2007-12-03 15:22:04] - a: according the music industry, yes. - mig
[2007-12-03 15:13:45] - vinnie: because giving a user too much choice is a bad thing. ~a
[2007-12-03 15:10:01] - yay matrix music. - mig
[2007-12-03 15:05:42] - a: it tries to work like a real radio station. I think the licensing deal they have with the record companies is basically that it won't allow the user too much choice over the specific song it plays - vinnie
[2007-12-03 15:04:48] - a: because pandora i guess doesn't want you skipping too many songs? i don't know. - mig
[2007-12-03 14:56:51] - yes. why? ~a
[2007-12-03 14:54:36] - a: you can only skip a certain amount of songs an hour. - mig
[2007-12-03 14:53:43] - burning your skips? why do you have a limited number of skips? ~a
[2007-12-03 14:53:18] - i contest that they cost 50 bucks. ~a
[2007-12-03 14:52:51] - the problem with the nobuo uematsu station is it picks up a lot of stuff i don't like because it has a lot of classical influences. i end up burning all my skips so quickly
- mig[2007-12-03 14:50:21] - hmmm a digital picture frame seems like a good idea for my parents, i'll go with that. - mig
[2007-12-03 14:33:25] - kaleb: apparently pandora has music from halo in its database. "martin o'donnell and michael salvatori"? it came up on miguel's final fantasy station - aaron
[2007-12-03 12:19:50] - ~gurkie
[2007-12-03 12:19:46] - paul: if you find a good one I think my grandparents would love that. Especially if I loaded it with pics... I thought one of my coworkers mentioned something about being able to find them for 50 bucks.
[2007-12-03 12:18:34] - i'm glad we're not playing west virginia though. - mig
[2007-12-03 12:01:15] - mig: Yeah, I don't really have a problem with LSU finishing ahead of us. They are probably the better team and both their losses came in triple overtime. Also, they spanked us pretty badly early in the season. -Paul
[2007-12-03 11:52:16] - pierce: i'm on wikipedia too. . . . close enough. ~a
[2007-12-03 11:50:17] - i'm surprised that the xbox won't play vob files. ~a
[2007-12-03 10:47:01] - also i have to think that they might just be trying to avoid controversy with SEC teams at all costs after the whole Auburn debacle. - mig
[2007-12-03 09:49:06] - though i have to admit, us finishing 6th is kind of lame. - mig
[2007-12-03 09:48:04] - errr i mean lsu above us. - mig
[2007-12-03 09:47:52] - paul: it is kind of hard to argue with humans placing us above lsu after they throttled us, though. - mig
[2007-12-03 08:08:42] - a: Then it's probably not what I am looking for.
-Paul[2007-12-02 23:54:28] - though mencoder is VERY hard to use. ~a
[2007-12-02 23:53:35] - i can convert from vobs to avi/mpeg files using mencoder. ~a
[2007-12-02 23:48:55] - digital picture frames are pretty cool (my mom got one for her birthday). but i think their prices will drop as more companies make them. 17" flat screen monitors are much much cheaper than a much much smaller digital picture frame and i can't explain the discrepancy. ~a
[2007-12-02 23:47:14] - i skipped past that one word. ~a

[2007-12-02 23:38:28] - http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/BCSStandings Damn, that's painful. The computer had us as #1 and it's solely because of the stupid human polls that we were left out of the championship game. -Paul
[2007-12-02 14:16:21] - there's also a much smaller one on/above the gold award sign (in the same place in both pictures). ~a
[2007-12-02 14:15:51] - dead pixels show up as small dots in every picture (sometimes hard to see). here's an example of a small one: green dot on the lady-wearing-white's collar in the same spot as green dot on the lady-wearing-dark-green's collar. ~a
[2007-12-02 14:13:02] - a: Sorry, I meant a digital picture FRAME, not a camera. I want one of those frames that just scrolls through showing pictures. -Paul
[2007-12-02 14:12:13] - Also, does anybody have any suggestions on the best way to convert VOB files to WMV files so I can play ripped DVDs on my Xbox360 through my network?
-Paul[2007-12-02 14:07:17] - there are two other things that infuriate me about some digital cameras (which are sometimes worse than the "delay" issues): dead pixels (in the sensor input, NOT the display) and color balance (people look like zombies on every picture of some cameras). ~a
[2007-12-02 14:04:28] - make sure you pay attention to this delay because especially people who are used to non-digital cameras will notice this (also the delay on camera startup; which isn't as big of a deal as it used to be) ~a
[2007-12-02 14:01:27] - depends on what their goals are. next time i get a camera, it'll be an SLR. most people's biggest complaints about digital cameras are that there is a HUGE delay after pressing the shutter release button before the picture is taken. part of this is due to autofocus, and part of it is due to retarded design. ~a
[2007-12-02 13:45:25] - I'm thinking of getting my parents a digital picture frame for Christmas. Does anybody have any suggestions or advice? -Paul

[2007-12-01 10:00:29] - "If human embryonic stem cell research does not make you at least a little bit uncomfortable, you have not thought about it enough." isn't that a little bit pretentious? ~a

[2007-11-30 09:54:37] - hahaha I was looking at this page for reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/They_Might_Be_Giants_(album) . I love the credit to "phoned-in guitar"
- vinnie[2007-11-30 09:53:08] - aaron: they played "Spy", so even John Henry was covered. I'm not sure they played anything off the first album though - vinnie
[2007-11-30 09:32:47] - vinnie: And apparently "John Henry" and "No!" were the two albums missing from the concert - aaron
[2007-11-30 09:28:39] - Wow they've actually done Dinner Bell live a couple times. I wonder how that works. Maybe they only do the lead voice. - aaron
[2007-11-30 09:20:15] - and at the same time, i also am a bit irritated because it is so insulting to him. It's essentially saying, "we're not going to take you seriously, but pretty please be our novelty act so we have something to talk about." - mig
[2007-11-29 19:49:10] - i find it funny cnn has tried to suggest mulitple times to Ron Paul to run as an independant. Hoping for a perot/nader type vote split scenario that would favor clinton, are we? - mig
[2007-11-29 17:36:18] - gurkie: i do not belive it's crazy to think it can be a contributing factor. i believe it's crazy to think that all violent media is in of itself "dangerous" because some crazy people went psycho. - mig
[2007-11-29 17:01:55] - gurkie: maybe you just think that it's crazy that the scientific community can't come up with any credible evidence to that effect. ~a
[2007-11-29 16:57:02] - mig: you think that its crazy to think that playing violent video games and watching violent tv affects your behavior? ~gurkie
[2007-11-29 16:37:35] - somebody guessed 1000 times and i suggested than 1000 was a very large number. ~a
[2007-11-29 16:34:13] - what did we guess? 800 times? http://tmbw.net/wiki/Special:SetlistSearch?queryText=Particle%2BMan - vinnie

[2007-11-29 15:53:51] - do . . . or do not. there is no maybe! ~a

[2007-11-29 15:28:43] - a: Actually, that's a blog I read when I get a chance: http://thehousingbubbleblog.com Mostly he just aggregates news stories, but the commentary is interesting (to me) if a little out of control sometimes. New media. -- Xpovos
[2007-11-29 15:24:49] - ddr_people: I'm gonna check out nvcc today. - aaron
[2007-11-29 15:24:26] - vinnie: oh is that the story! i was wondering about that. that's very odd. i like Scott Bauer's song better. - aaron
[2007-11-29 14:55:32] - aaron: did you see the TMBW article on Kendra McCormick and Scott Bauer? they won a contest so that TMBG would write songs about them. I want a song
- vinnie[2007-11-29 14:42:10] - xpovos: i think it returned zero hits because you were reading an article on the housing bubble. ~a
[2007-11-29 14:24:04] - I'm not generally a believer in the conspiracy theory that the media is out to blackout all coverage of Ron Paul, but this nearly convinced me. To be fair, though, after getting this and grabbing a screenshot, I reloaded and it worked fine. Momentary glitch. -- Xpovos
[2007-11-29 14:23:16] - the "fight" between guilani and romney was just moronic. it just made it so obvious these guys are both just all talk and no substance. - mig
[2007-11-29 14:22:11] - needed more face time for ron paul imo. - mig
[2007-11-29 13:44:49] - a: No. And yes. I found it amusing and very painful to watch for the hour I was able to watch it. But at the same time, I do feel that I know the front-runners better for it. Guiliani and Romney went at each other pretty fiercely for a while. -- Xpovos
[2007-11-29 13:36:27] - was it worth watching? ~a
[2007-11-29 13:20:36] - Anyone else watch the YouTube/CNN Republican debate last night? -- Xpovos

- mig[2007-11-27 14:59:02] - mig: I either didn't know or had forgotten about Thompson. Scary fellow. Some of the incidents looked like they could have been intentionally funny; except I don't think he has a sense of humor based on the other events. -- Xpovos

Here's a run down on the price reductions and dates. 05/23/07 -- $339,900 to $319,900; 06/20/07 -- $319,900 to $289,900; 07/19/07 -- $289,900 to $278,900; 09/13/07 -- $278,900 to $249,900; 10/19/07 -- $249,900 to $239,900; 11/19/07 -- $239,900 to $115,000 -- Xpovos

[2007-11-27 11:08:14] - xpovos: wow, that's pretty amazing -dave
[2007-11-27 10:31:24] - dave: I'm currently watching a house for sale about a quarter mile from where I've started renting. It's been on the market (owned by a bank) for most of the year. They've lowered the price pretty much every month. This last month they knocked 50% off the previous asking price! As far as I can tell, it's still not anywhere close to selling. -- Xpovos

[2007-11-21 16:34:45] - seeing as we're so close to maryland maybe we should start selling "custom computer services" here. . . . because it seems like there'd be a lot of people in maryland looking for custom computing services south of the border. ~a

[2007-11-19 18:26:05] - a: Currently only Katie and I have userids. I doubt one will be needed, as the only added permissions would be to add photos. -- Xpovos

~a[2007-11-19 15:45:50] - It's something that'll get updated as we add actual wedding photos, I think. -- Xpovos
[2007-11-19 15:45:35] - a: Yeah, the gallery was a disaster from day one. I built a really awesome one (IMO) then Katie waited until the day before launch to tell me that she hated all the photos I'd put up. So I took most of them down. As a result, there are a few there, but it's pretty paltry. To get more you need a userid/login. -- Xpovos
[2007-11-19 15:42:33] - xpovos: it's asking for a username/password on the picture area. ~a
