(...) It is possible to get VCRs in the US which can read European tapes (PAL and I think SECAM is another format?). I think these especially started to become popular when the anime genre really started to take off.

(...) had never bothered to test MSIE with Netscapes's version-- it works. So never mind. I'll just use the Netscape version since it works in both. Unless, that is, someone informs me that the Netscape version doesn't work with earlier versions of (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Woohoo! I figured it out... Of course it requires me to dynamically re-format the javascript code depending on what browser you're using (and it'll ONLY work for MSIE and NN). But, it works. I think. I've tested it on Netscape 4.05, and MSIE (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) No it was just me, but the "hot" spots were definitely on the floor. In some I could rock very slightly and turn on/off the sound. They were also within a few feet of the subwoofer so it seems like there would have to be some real complex wave (...) (24 years ago, 8-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Umm, did you verify this with two people in the room? One moving about, one sitting still. It could be that the noise wasn't changing, but as you moved about the room, you were moving in and out of zones where the noise was audible. Sounds a (...)

Over the weekend I experienced a puzzing thing with my home stereo system. My stereo system includes a powered subwoofer, which started humming when I stepped or stood in various places in my apartment. The stereo was on, but the CD playing was (...)

It might even turn out that a fixed-point representation is flexible enough and maybe even faster since it would involve only a single floating- point multiply by (...)

If the only computations you need to do with them are comparisons, then once converted they will be extremely cheap to work with (the reason (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
