What is the situation with NFL players having communication things in their helmets? Is it every player, only some players, do they each have mics or only an earpiece thing, can all the coaches speak on it or only the head coach, etc.
I was watching one of the college bowl games a few days ago and the commentators mentioned at one point how they need to use hand signals because they don't have communicators like in the NFL so it got me wondering.

I have four 11MB PDF pages that I need to combine and compress into a PDF that needs to be <10MB. I'm on a limited bandwidth connection and a different computer so I can't download Adobe Professional Trial like I did last time I had to do this.
Any online/free/trial applications that let you do this out there?

"The Greeks invented democracy."
Is it wrong or right to use the word invented in that sentence? I know there are multple meanings to the word invention, and in this context of the definition, it'd be "a discovery, finding", correct?

Mind blown. I have never heard this before. Gonna have to read up.
I think it's fine. And I'd think of it more in the creation sense of the word--democracy wasn't something out in nature waiting to be found, like magnetism or gravity.

Ok. My friend at work said democracy is an idea, not an invention. I was talking to him about a Greek guy at work who likes to joke around and ask me what the Turks invented, and he always brings up democracy.
I think idea and invention are both fine.

Part 14 at 4:10, there's hymn of sorts playing and it's basically a ripoff of some famous song. Anyone know which song I'm thinking of? It's eerily similar imho but I can't put my finger on it

A random thought just occurred to me while watching a Rifftrax short of all things - was Cool Hand Luke supposed to be a modern day story of Jesus? I was thinking maybe the parking meter = contempt for money changers, the prisoners loved him and followed him like apostles, in the scene after he eats the eggs they lay him on a table like he's on a cross, etc. I'm sure there are more things I could think of but as you can tell from the randomness of this post I'm a bit drunk right now.

Is there any particular reason why there is no true Neogaf App for iDevices/Andtroid?

Pretty sure it will do nothing unless there is a HDMI output to connect it to the TV that way like a stand alone DVD player or what have you.
Thanks for this, I'll check it out later.
Because a separate app for a website is silly?
The dude who does the mobile version is apparently now working with Evilore to make an official (i.e. ad-supported) version.
I'm trying to enter a website and I keep getting "Server Not Found" error messages. I've tried in Opera, Chrome, Firefox, and IE. The site works, and has been working, as does my internet connection. What could cause this? I heard it could be malware or something, so I did a full scan with Malware Bytes, and Microsoft Security Essentials, but nothing was found. What gives?

I get this sometimes too and generally get it resolved by giving my pc a good whack [re-booting]. I will be interested to see if someone has a more cogent explanation

Alright, My harddrive crashed a while back and I've been using linux but I found my Windows 7 Key and want to switch back. My question is how do I know what version of windows 7 this key belongs to. The sticker with the code says Windows 7 Pro OA.
edit: the laptop had an OEM version of windows 7 and I did not install it myself. so will that code work if I get an installation dvd or do I need to just buy a copy of W7? and if it does work ,again, how do I know which version it belongs to if that is important?

:/ Have you tried isthissitedownorisitjustme.com [or whatever it's called]?
Or asked someone to see if they can access the same url?
If it's not too private or embarrassing [to you] I would be happy to do that for you.

If they are actively choosing not to work, then that person better have some amazingly redeemable qualities. Either way, I'm not thinking too highly of them.
If you're talking about someone who doesn't work, but is actively trying to look for a job, then that's completely different.

Does anyone else think Odette Annabelle (formerly Yustman) looks like a hotter Ellen Page?
Yeah, I've tried the Is It Down For Me, or Everyone website, and it's just me, lol. Oddly though the site's working now for me. It's just NearVita.com, a Vita fansite I'm supposed to be a writer of.

Oh God. That question is too smart for me. Never learned matrices. At least, not in any depth.
I'm graduating from university soon and have a question. I am not sure if I should include my full name in my diploma (in my birth certificate I have my father's and mother's last name). In the school's record I only use my father's last name but there are occasions (like driver's license) where I will be registered with my mother's last name as well. Its usage is pretty inconsistent but it is what it is. I have my parents to blame for that. But when I sign I don't write my mother's last name nor do I see myself using it professionally. What do you guys think I should do?

First you should legally change your name to just one last name, then use that.
kinda. but Page has the intelligent thing going on as well.
