I'm going to say no since I firmly believe that the government should never pass out cash. There are plenty of ways to help the needy without giving them money. Many are in that state because they are poor stewards of money anyway, and just giving it to them won't help. I'd rather see welfare ...

If the economy is good in four years, Obama will be unbeatable. If the economy is still suffering, anyone will be able to beat him. I predict it will just be somewhat better :P As long as Obama and the members can of congress think that they can throw counterfeit money and fake credit at the ...

Obama does seem to have a knack for making elegant promises which basic common sense finds absurd. He voted for the Bush \"stimulus\" package, spends another $800B in his own \"stimulus\" package, on top spending increasing spending in other areas and trying to cut taxes at the same time. Then he ...

Closed systems rarely make for good 3rd party development. I wouldn't program for an Apple product. How about Descent on Android?

Plasmas in general have better picture quality, although LCDs are rarely set correctly in-store. I'm probably pickier about image quality than most people though. I have a 42\" Panasonic Plasma and I love it! It's great for games, movies, and sports. Not so great for constant viewing of TV channels ...

A recent poll of economists... Chicago Boyz: Why Most of Us No Longer Read The Economist . The poll politically driven, statistically invalid analysis.

I decided to read the book again a couple of hours before the movie. I'm sure most everybody has read the book, but for good measure... *** SPOILER ALERT *** They changed up the timeline of events a good bit for no clear reason. This wouldn't have been so bad if they didn't use it to portray Peter ...

Once I graduate, I'd kinda like to play through Freespace again. Or pretty much any good space fighter sim. Suggestions are welcome.

Marth, Peach, and Fox are my favorites. Will definitely try most of the new characters. I'm also interested to see if any of the former clones from Melee got their own movesets (Falcon, Ganondorf, Young Link... etc.)

First choice is AllOfMP3.com, which can now also be accessed at mp3sparks.com. Second would be Amazon's new download service. DRM-Free 256kbps VBR MP3s. Still not as good as setting your own format from allofmp3, but better than iTunes.

Plague

Was August 20th, now August 27th.

Plague

Another way to legally convert iTunes m4p files and WM wma files to mp3 is to use a program that will play the recorded file and re-record it as an mp3 (this does not crack the DRM, and therefore falls under fair use laws). I use Tunebite. This is usually done in real time, but you can batch process ...

The Wii remote uses only accelerometers ( See remote dissection article ), and the triangulation from the sensor bar.

The graphics are on par with a very nice Gamecube title (which makes sense given that it was intended for the GCN for the better part of its development). The gameplay so far, has been amazing! Definitely classic Zelda. Its also very long (I've played 5+ hours and I'm not quite through the first ...

Just got back from Walmart with a voucher to get the Wii at midnight. I thought we'd get to wait inside like with the Gamecube. Now I'm freezing. Also, the Gamespot review was a joke. They gave the review to the one guy that completely hates the Wii. You can check out one of the videos where there ...

I'm looking for some good software to convert our home videos to DVD. I've used a DVD recorder, but labeling scenes and moving them around and such was extremely slow and arduous. Anyone know of some good ones? I prefer free, but I wouldn't mind paying for it either if the software is really good.

Top Gun wrote:"I don't really give a damn what it's called; I'm buying it anyway."

However, I had the same reaction to the name. It was eerily similar to my reaction when I first saw the controller. Therefore I think it has a chance to grow on me. But then again, the name isn't a 3D mouse.

Got all 30 in about an hour and a half. 16, 19, and 23 were the ones that I was stuck on for a bit.

Maven is the computer.

In that case, you may want to look at some of the open source content management systems. A lot of them already have ecommerce modules that are built in or downloadable.

Definitely consider Mobi's point. However, that's not saying that you shouldn't start learning. HTML along with Dreamweaver is a start, and you'll need to add some basic CSS along the way as well.

I think I'm gonna go for the 930BF. Now for the last question. What is considered a good pixel policy? Samsung won't replace the monitor until it has 10 or more bad pixels. Newegg wants at least 8. ZipZoomFly will replace if 3 dead pixels are in the center (2\"x2\"), 4 pixels on the rest, or 6 total ...

Plague

The only difference I can see between the 940B and the 930BF is the response time and the brightness. The 940 is brighter while the 930 has a 4ms response time rather than 8ms. Is that a big enough difference to warrant paying $50 more for a monitor that isn't as bright (please note again that I ...

I'm looking at these two now:

- DELL UltraSharp 1905FP
- Samsung 940B

I think I have a floormate who has the Dell, and I'm going to see if I can get him to let me have a good look at it. Has anyone had a good look at that Samsung model? All the reviews I could find were very solid.

I am looking at getting a 19\" LCD as a second monitor. I already have a CRT for gaming, so I'll mostly be using it for Windows applications. I was looking to spend $300-400. What are some good brands/models?

My Dad recently got a Viewsonic 30" LCD HDTV. We have this enclosed entertainment center that has doors that slide out and close over it.

I found the problem. The code I had to generate thumbnails was not specifying the second parameter for the imagejpeg function, so it was writing the output stream to the page.

Plague

That's not it. I output the file when I want to just fine. Its that when the user uploads the file, it is displayed as text at the top of the page. Its not in my code intentionally. I was thinking that it might be an option somewhere that should be turned off.

Plague

My idea was to have a single upload form that posts to the same page, so that a user could upload as many images as they wanted. As a file is uploaded, it is processed and a thumbnail of it appears in a list with all the other pictures, complete with options and such. Only problem is, when I upload ...

Single for gaming, dual if you do lots of heavy multitasking. You won't see a difference in most gaming on the dual core, plus you can use the extra money on other components.

Actually, your velocity is linear, but your centripetal acceleration will be angular. I'm going to neglect friction and gravity because I don't have a Ph.D. in physics.

That right there just sealed Nintendo's fate as far as the Gamecube is concerned.

Surely they weren't planning on selling a ton ...

New problem: I can't get the ATI Catalyst 5.7 x64 drivers to install. I go through the user agreement and custom/express installation, and then the "Configuring Windows Installer" thing finishes, and nothing else appears. It just quits in the middle of installation. Anybody have an idea?
