Herve's Bar & Grill

Hey all...

STOP POSTING A MESSAGE EVERY MINUTE! :D

anyways, just bought me a Sony Net MD... that's a MiniDisc player for those who don't know... and it works great...

for $150... it gets all my fav songs... all sound great and i got all that i need

who needs an ipod?!





just kidding!
 
Its only temporary, but I had to get SOMETHING. I threw it together in about 5 minutes.....This will last until I have more time to make a better one...

Why the "V"? About have of my friends call me "V" instead of JohnnyV.

One more and I'll be at the big 2-0-0
 
Bling, I'd like to know more about MiniDisc tech (especially NetMD, which I dont understand at all...): how does it work? How many songs do you get on it? How do you transfer? etc...

Tismey, has it been long enough since I pointed out your typo that you might be persuaded to pour me a nice cold pint?

Just about... there you go. I've put an umbrella in it to make it classier.

macguy & xoot, I've noticed that you'd have far fewer posts if you stopped posting about the fact that you post too much. I personally couldn't give a monkeys about the fact that you have the ability to click 'Post Reply' and type some cobblers about the amount you post. I appreciate that Herve's is a place for non-technical discussions, and general socialising, but it's not for pushing up your postcounts by talking about your postcounts. In fact, if someone could come up with some kind of hack for VBulletin that would automatically deduct any postcount-related posts from your postcount, then that'd solve this problem completely.

Anyway, back to business...
 
Yes, yes, I know, sorry.

I always wondered... why do people change the posts-to-a-page counts? I mean, what's your rationale for doing it? I'm not saying it's bad or anything, I just don't see the reason for it, is all. Can someone who does this explain it?
 
Ed is probably doing some gardening work :D
(in preparation for teh big macosx.com party lol :p)

Dial up is slow. The pages each have to load all of the buttons, the smileys, the avatars, et cetera. It's faster to load them onto one page than break it up into multiple pages. So faster download time is why I do it. Can't speak for anyone else. Oh, and it's easier to read one page than many...


Thanks, Tismey, the umbrella is a nice touch. :)
 
actually, it is past the point of mere yardwork. It is total cleanup and setup for the party tomorrow!! Just 26 hrs til it starts.

i make my pages load only 10 per page because there are rarely more than a few new posts in a thread and why should i download a whol bunch just to read a few (or mostly one new one).

and hey Tismey, good job of setting those delinquients strait. Twyg, you also helped make the point with your seperate thread.

I will say this much to the blatant post whores - i will neither start nor participate in any congrats thread for you since i know how little the mark will mean when you reach it.

well, gotta finish reading the new posts and then get to work. don't expect me back till late sat. or maybe even sun.

oh, and what's a DDR?

Digital Disk Recorder is my best guess. Or one of
Driver's Defect Report
Daily Demand Rate
Data Descriptive Record
Detailed Design Review
Deutsche Demokratische Republik (former East Germany)
Discovery Data Record (Microsoft System Management Server)
Dual Doppler Radar
Dynamic Desktop Router
or (mysteriously) Radar Picket Destroyer (US Navy ship type)

I'm still trying to figure out how DDR makes Radar Picket Destroyer... wouldn't it be RPD? But I guess it's the Navy, so doesn't have to make sense. :rolleyes:

These results brought to you by http://www.acronymfinder.com and the number Q. :)
 
In this case, I suppose DDR means Double Data Rate (memory) as used in the Xserve machines. In other words, macguy meant that we should get an Xserve for Herve's B&G.
But, what should we need that for when we already have an automatic PPC-AI250000 based (drink) server machine? :confused: ;)

Ed? Party? And you didn't invite us? :confused: :D
 
Well... It's called going outside people =)

j/k, anyway DDR stands for Dance Dance Revolution, one of the best games in the world. You've probably seen it, it's the game that plays music and you have to step on the arrows at the top of the screen...
I love that game :D
