PS3's new 3D mode captured on video, coming in 2010 to all existing games {Engadget}

Sep 4th 2009 9:44AM The word."Schmuck" is German and it means both decoration and JEWEL as says my up-to-date dictionary and my good friend from Frankfurt a Main. Yiddish just borrowed it as it did with most of the German language.

The idiot was the one who used it.

Sep 4th 2009 8:34AM I object to your use of the word, "schmuck." It is a very rude and vulgar word. It's from the German and means "Jewel." However, the derogatory meaning has to do with a certain part of the male anatomy.

I'm sure your vocabulary is big enough to find and use a more suitable word(s).

Feb 16th 2008 3:19PM I have an on going complaint about your use of acronyms HDM HUSPA et alia. I'm not a geek and plan to keep it that way. Therefore have to constantly look up the myriad of initials.

In each article please write out the full name once. I still may want to look it up or reject it as being unimportant to me. Otherwise, your techie comments are like so much Chinese.
