    @Kevin Murphy: It's the website for Marshall amplifiers, asking for customer response. They made the perhaps unfortunate decision to word it as "submit your feedback", so some enterprising individual submitted a written sample of screeching guitar feedback.

    @Axelph: It was an admittedly weak attempt at guitar- and amp- related humor. "pick up", "clicked", "well-played". It was a dumb joke. I'm not dense, thank you very much.

    You know, I was never a Lego baby. Maybe that is what caused me to have such horrible creativity.


    Someone should build a program that sees a picture on your computer and tells you how many pieces of Lego you will need and how to build it. I think Lego might have this somewhere in their secret basement of awesomeness.


    There is no way in hell that someone thought of how to build the Death Star on Legos.

    @Professional_Iceberg_Hunter:
    If you don't mind it being restricted to a 2D mosaic, there are already at least two programs out there. One was available through the LEGO Shop@Home website for ordering custom B&W mosaic kits. The other was fan-developed for designing color mosaics. Also, Eric Harshbarger (the original freelance LEGO artist, though he has been surpassed by Nathan Sawaya in recent years) custom-tailored an existing program that would output the plans in terms of decorated tiles instead of the standard design which uses plates.


    As for the other bit, there's a guy who wrote a program that would spit out LEGO plans to build a replica of the Standford Bunny, and there's another program out there that will spit out plans for building a studs-out sphere. But to date, there's no program I'm aware of that'll churn out 3D plans of any random object you put in front of it.

    The man is going to deaf as a post in a few years. 120db is just stupid.


    My home theater is calibrated at 85db and that's too loud for most people. I can't even imagine sustained sound pressure levels more than 30 times louder.


    Sounds like compensation for something...

    @Software_Goddess: Yeah, but I mix at around 100-105dB in venues that are bigger than that barn. Louder than that is too loud. That's the main thing keeping me away from a "My Bloody Valentine" show. I love the band, but I can play the CD at a volume that won't make me dizzy.
