<0> kitchen: no this is where I used to live
<1> if you actually need a line conditioner, you've got more serious problems
<2> ok lunch time
<3> ^ase^; that or you want your home theatre to be as purfect as possible ?
<1> motion.. unless you have several kilowatts of power causing enough draw to drop the voltage, its overkill
<1> or maybe you live in an industrial area with a lot of eletrical motors, then i could see some issues
<1> its like buying gold connectors instead of regular old copper, its just plain overkill
<0> yeah like I said i've never had any issues in my current home
<0> or even when i was living with my parents (yes in their basement lol) and the whole house wiring was really FUBARed they still ran perfectly.
<0> o
<3> im surpised no one has written a dummies guide to not being stupid
<0> it's 12:31pm
<0> Lunch!
<3> How not to be a retard in 24 hours
<4> no it's not
<0> motion: how could a dummy read it if they are stoopid :(

<0> later.
<1> its 19:31 UTC.. u are both wrong
<4> 20:32:12 <+^aSe^> its 19:31 UTC.. u are both wrong
<5> i dunno hd-dvd or bluray
<4> you were wrong by at least 13 seconds
<5> i think i might get a hd-dvd
<1> spb.. quiet u
<4> no u
<1> nathanGL.. u know whatever system u do buy will end up failing ;)
<3> nathangl; bluray holds more
<3> i dont think either will make it that far
<5> meh
<5> aSe haha
<1> i have a betamax that used to work and a laserdisc player that does work
<3> you know the reason vhs won that war is cause of the porn industry
<1> well.. cheaper media and the fact a vhs held 2 hours was too hard to overcome
<3> i always heard beta was better
<1> quality wise, it is superior to standard vhs
<1> supervhs isn't bad tho
<3> how much did beta tapes hold
<3> like minutes/...
<1> 60 minutes
<3> ahh
<1> the normal vhs tapes were 2hours (like 2.5hours pal) and they came out with longer tapes pretty quick that held 3
<3> i thought it did more :x my dads old girlfriend had one and a bunch of movies on it
<5> porn?
<1> laserdisc was around about the same time.. had it used smaller cds it prolly would have caught on
<6> E240 is normal now
<3> blu-ray just looks so much cooler
<3> TDK recently announced that they have created a working Blu-ray disc capable of holding 200GB of data (six 33GB data layers).
<1> penguion.. really, the ones we have laying around are all 180s
<1> oh wait, e240 is about the same size
<6> 240 minute tapes are ubiquitous here
<1> yeah and yer 240 minute tapes hold less than 180 w/ ntsc ;)
<6> the earlier tapes were **** quality
<7> 6x33gB ... wow.
<7> i'd like to have a spindle of those
<3> ^ase^; yeah i remember the laserdisc, weren't they bigger then vinyl records
<3> or just as big
<1> pretty close in size
<3> im sure the size made anyone cringe thinking about taking them anywhere
<1> actually i think they were a tad bit bigger
<3> yeah i thought so
<1> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:LDDVDComparison.jpg
<3> yupe just seen it
<1> gotta remember who.. its late 70s earily 80s tech
<1> who/tho
<3> heh
<6> neat
<1> They first publicly demonstrated the videodisc in 1972
<1> okay i'm wrong, its even older
<3> oh :x
<3> haha that is old
<8> wow, didnt know it was that old
<1> well the cd is really an evolved laserdisc
<1> envolved
<1> nm
<3> how much data did they even store :-/
<9> like 2 mb
<9> :D
<3> hahah
<9> when i was in 8th grade they used it for like science cl***
<9> that was not too long ago like 7 years ago
<1> 54,000 individual frames or 30 minutes of audio/video could be stored on a single side of a CAV disc
<1> figure how much space 30minutes of ntsc video is
<3> they still produce movies on laserdisc? wtf
<1> a few hundread mb
<8> not bad for 70' tech
<3> a dude my mom babysat for long long *** time ago had one
<3> ahh
<10> laserdisc was better quality than dvd
<3> laserdisc is stored analog ...
<10> especially during the analogue days
<10> but those discs are too damn big ;P
<9> yea hehe
<10> I used to have a karaoke machine
<9> what ever happened to sonys minidisc?
<11> it crapped out
<11> got pwned by mp3
<1> motion.. yeah but, it was doubble the lines of vhs tape.. good quality
<9> oh
<3> omio; mini-dvd?
<10> they kept it proprietary, everybody else moved on
<9> motion no
<5> hahaha
<9> MD
<1> sony still sells md players
<5> americans spent a decade and $12billion to create a pen for 0gravity... hahaha.. the russians used a pencil, gold
<10> anybody wanna buy mine?
<10> ;P
<9> sony loves proprietary
<3> omio; dont remember that :x sounds familiar thogh
<10> they have excellent battery time
<1> what i loved about my md, anti-skip
<1> so u could take it anywhere
<10> one AA cell can drive it for like 20-40h
<9> damn
<3> nathangl; wtf
<1> nathanGL.. 12 billion, really
<9> nathangl i don't know about 12 billion
<3> OH ! that minidisc
<3> hahaha
<12> blah
<12> power out at apartment
<10> wonder if it's possible to put data onto netMD
<9> netMD?
<1> sure but, remember the md used software compression
<1> so its not a lot of space
<10> like 180mb or something
<1> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34KxmCQD0V8
<1> haha
<10> omio: basically a portable md player with a usb connector
<9> cool
<8> ase old as hell
<1> yep
<1> still good
<9> what is a good place to hide data from the government...
<3> hah my first mp3 player was sony which forced the use of Atrac too
<10> as far as I remember somebody figured out how to talk to it, record etc. all except encoding the music, which uses a special codec and is done in software
<1> omio.. on a search warrent they can/will take any device that'll hold data, including your answering machine and vhs tapes
<1> hell if yer smart, normally c***ett tapes could hold a few mb
