F3ngles commented on Music, Can You Make It?!

"Had the living snot beaten out of me when I was young by my mum to make me learn classical piano. And it turned out to be one of the best things she ever did for me."

"@TitillatedOcelot: I'm happy paying the toll to get to the escape zone, but I'll be damned if I'm going to pay for the odd hundred others following me."

F3ngles commented on Little Girl Substituted By Cuter Little Girl In Olympic Opening Ceremony Karaoke

"@laffmakr: Urrmm...did you just compare the Olympic Games opening ceremony to pop concerts? I agree with what one poster said above about the games (or more specifically the opening/closing ceremony) being about showmanship, but this is really messed up."

F3ngles commented on One Kid's Journey On a Weed-Whacker Broom Skate Thing

"@red: That's what we call those things here in Rand McNelly too. In fact we also have left-handed screwdrivers and striped paint - those are pretty cool. I'm just waiting for the genius to try this with an outboard motor instead of the weed whacker."

F3ngles commented on Toshiba Making Upconverting DVD Players Because HD DVD Loss Still Stings

"@BridgetNemesis: I wouldn't say this will be a "HUGE blow to Sony" since there are already upscaling devices available on the market. [gizmodo.com] Toshiba seems to be very vague on the details (I think they still haven't gotten over losing the format war and this is just a hasty rebound idea)."

F3ngles commented on On the Road Again

"@StephenTotilo: I see what you're saying now - and I was completely off the mark. To continue using the self-help books analogy: True, self-help books may be immensely popular but in most major bookshops, they are found near the New Age & Astrology sections - you will not find it sitting next to general fiction."

F3ngles commented on Epson Proud of Its 13 Inches of E-paper

"That's pretty cool. I've heard how much text and images on epaper looks like actual printing on traditional paper (never seen it in action in real life myself), but if that picture above has managed to fool people here into thinking that it's just a piece of newspaper between two sheets of glass, then I'd say they've done a heck of a job."
