  Re: Suggested CD-R(W) Burner programs
 
(...) LG Electronics CD-RW 8x4x32x Internal Rewritable Drive CED-8080B A blank 80 minute CD shows up the same as a 74 minute one under "My Computer"...ie, labeled "-empty-" with 0 used and 0 free space. The only difference is that the burner (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) oops, doy! I didn't put in the propagation of that URL term. I don't consider it 100% "documented" yet (it's still subject to change without notice), but I still shouldn't have missed that. Thanks. I'll fix that. The reason it's subject to (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jan-01, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) It works great! ... but the &qs doesn't carry over to the next page of results. So if I want to see more pages, I have to edit the querystring on each page. Since you already have the inner workings of this in place, it would be really easy to (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jan-01, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Suggested CD-R(W) Burner programs
 
(...) Are you sure it isn't your burner that doesn't recognize the 80 minute blanks? What model do you have? I know that when 80 minute blanks first hit the market there were a lot of CDRs that wouldn't burn on them. (24 years ago, 3-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Suggested CD-R(W) Burner programs
 
The program that came with my CD-RW drive (just!burn by CeQuadrat--includes cd!backup, just!data, and just!audio) doesn't seem to recognize the 80 minute CD-Rs I just bought ($17 for 100 CDs!). Does anyone have a suggestion for a burner program that (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) <snip> (...) I would have to concur. (...) < goes away and tries it... > Umm - Would it not make sense to simply include the appropriate qualifier on the system side? (I tried it and got two year old results for "qs", but I'm probably doing (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: News search function reactivated (was: News search function temporarily disabled)
 
(...) Not yet, no. See "to-do soon" section in previous post. (...) For now, if you don't mind URL mucking, you can manually append &qs=<number> to the URL and it will use that number (in seconds) as a time delta. For example, to limit posts to the (...)

  Re: When did the 3rd millennium start?
 
(...) No we don't need to renumber all the previous years. We just need to give the year 1 BC two names. Or we can be non-anal about it and accept that to the average person, it makes more sense that the millenium starts in 2000 not 2001. On the (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: When did the 3rd millennium start?
 
(...) Doesn't matter. It's the *2001st* year since we started counting. Not 2000th: I think that's what you're missing. *Last* year was the 2000th year; that's why it was called "2000". (...) Well, as I said in my post, you are *in* your 38th year. (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
