Re:Sweet!!!
There is this beautiful option in windows called searching. You could do a search on the domain for *.mp3, then select all and enque, I am sure that that's all this program is doing but it is just doing it in the background.
I don't usually respond to flamebait, but come on! You seriously think that automatic discovery is nothing more than a fancy front for a full-fledged domain search? And, by the way, how do you intend to search the whole domain?
I checked your website to see what kind of person we're dealing with, too. "At this site, you will discover all about our ability to help you build your corporate network, as well as our courteous and resourceful staff." We will discover all about your ability? Your resourceful staff should find a good grammar resource. And then there's the line at the bottom - "if you don't hire us, your stock holders will know." Whoever came up with that line should not be allowed to speak in public. -
cost of my album, so far.
- a moderate quality microphone, 30$
- a t-connection 0$[gift certificate]
- everything else - everyone else's junk 0$
- 50 Cds-~50$
... of course if you have nowhere to record you'll likely have to go to a studio. especially for vocals[i still have yet to get a _descent_ vocal recording done, but i havn't tried that hard...].
either way, if this could be done using home video cameras, and home [macintosh] computers with a budget of practically nil[although, i'm sure they could have if they had wanted to] for the project [to my knowledge, of course]... - you can get studio quality sound on your own. if all else fails,..what really is keeping you from making your own microphones? tape recorders? tin foil or otherwise phonograph presses?
be proud of your work, if nothing else, musicians...if you have been just in your attempt, you have made the world a better place.
almost forgot - distribution? put it on an ftp server. if your good, someone will mirror you. don't even touch mp3.com, they are owned by those who would seek to make you a weak, thin and broken hopeless, after they steal your work, and make you pay them for screwing you over. keep music free. -
Re:Commercial Speech
As long as you're getting into flame wars with everyone else, can I challenge your
.sig?
My little iMac can encode MPEG4 video in realtime. Show me an x86 that can do that. Or, shut up about x86 performance.
My natural response is: you must be on some sort of drugs. My factual response goes as follows -
Here's a page of benchmarks under OSX of MPEG4 Encoding. Looks like 15 frames/sec is a good time. What do you consider real time?
In the meantime, here's a set of benchmarks from Toms Hardware Guide. It shows speeds of up to 48 frames per second. So, if by realtime you meant film, (24ish frames) or NTSC (30ish), er... this would be much faster than real time. Heck, a p4 1.4 can nearly keep up with film in real time.
So... what the hell?
Oh yes, I have to stay on topic. You're right about corporations not existing to serve the public good. They exist to make money. That's the whole point of a company.
As far as "Congress shall make no law...", it doesn't seem like you've got the spirit of the ammendment - it simply *can't* be legal for all forms of speech to be protected. If it was, corporations could advertise falsely, lie about product spec, and do all sorts of other nasty things, and then say, 'but hey, it's speech!'
If you insist on interpreting the constitution that literally, perhaps you should write up a new ammendment that can be taken as dogma. But until you do, and it's ratified, we just have to stick with the way we've been doing things. -

It's been my experience that people who cry "whaaa, whaaa, I'm going to sue you!" or "whaaa, whaaa, I'm going to come to your house and kick your ass!" or "whaaa, whaaa, I'm going to call the police and have them arrest you for being mean to me" whenever they feel personally offended on the Internet tend to be terribly immature and have serious emotional problems. People who aren't confident with themselves and feel inferior about their own abilities try to boost their own self-esteem by making empty threats of lawsuits or physical assault whenever they're on the losing end of a flamewar.
His face will turn red, he'll start to wheeze and stutter, and he will angrily type, "Yeah, well, just wait until I tell my uncle at the CIA about how rude you've been to me! He'll come and arrest you and you'll go to jail and I'll sue you for everything you have! Then I'll kick your ass, and have sex with your girlfriend!"
He will then drag his corpulent, out-of-shape, virginal body across the basement to bed and drift off to slumber thinking "Wow, I'm sure I really scared those bastards! I'm sure they'll think twice before disagreeing with ME again!" He'll feel only a slight twinge of hollow emptiness the next day when he sees his uncle, who rather than working for the CIA, is actually the assistant janitor at the local McDonald's.
A few people who seem to fit the stereotype quite well of being absolute assholes on the Internet and then threatening to sue or call the FBI, CIA, and KGB when anyone who calls them on it:

Were these three people long-lost triplets, seperated at birth? Why do they behave in exactly the same way? Do they share a common mental disease? Or are they all actually the same person? We may never know. -

Visits to these Underground Stations
ProjectZ have undertaken some "unofficial" visits to some of these stations. Specifically Wood Lane underground station, and the abandoned part of Holborn Station and the adjoining world war two bunker. There are also some other interesting urban explorations on this site.

I'm starting out a hosting service...
I'm just starting my own corporation, with web design & hosting services. So this one came at very good time for me to see what people are really paying for.
Nope, i do not offer dedicated hosting although, and currently everything is hosted on pretty sucky connection (512/256) but will be changed on nearby months to 2Mbps/512Kbps or 1Mbps/1Mbps for starters, depends on which i get the upstream relative cheaper.
Currently i offer mainly to those whom i've designed web pages but others are allways welcome, and i try to charge low.
Basic package is 5e/month + small setup fee (setup fee is ment to cover future service expansion, administering costs, initial tech support costs... yes they tend to call me 'how this thing works?')
and basic service includes 50mb hd quota, 1gb bw quota, 1 vhost, ftp access.
I have made a prices list page quickly to http://hosting.czn.ath.cx, this site only contains prices, tech support contacts etc... for now. The real thing is being built atm.
The real 'beginning' will be beginning of next year when i change the connection is changed and domains will be finally available then. (Nope, not yet available, i'm having trouble with my current ISP, etc...)
and currently we do not keep any hard limits for the service, get the basic service and use ie. 75mb of hdd, not a big thing.
Yeah this is more like an ad than comment, sorry for that. -
Re:A good alternative!
MacOS X anyone - haven't they already implemented a (much better) alternative to X on a BSD(ish) kernel? I believe the underlying architecture is called quartz.
I don't personally use MacOS X but just looking at the blurb [apple.com] it has some quite intuitive features: PDF-style vector rendering, GPU and video memory usage. -

Linux kernel stringsI've found some funny error messages running strings on different Linux kernels. One of the funniest I've seen has been:
Unable to start swapping: out of memory
:-)Because Slashdot employs a fascist check on comments, I couldn't insert a larger list of funny messages. (I tried, for about 20 minutes, and constantly got "you don't meet the minimum line length" or some similar message. Isn't moderation supposed to be the system to weed out genuinely annoying messages?) As I've been forced to do before, I'm putting the rest of the comment on my site (the last time, it was an e-mail that had too many "strange characters" in it).

DocumentationFor some constructive criticism. We can bitch and complain about Blender vs Moonlight and how it's KDE vs. Gnome (pick your favorite religous battle) all over again. The bottom line is that Linux needs an OpenSource 3D modelling package.
I have downloaded the source to both Blender and Moonlight. And I'm still banging my head to figure out how to compile and run the darn things. What these projects need is some good documentation and developers jumping on board working out features.
So who's with me? Here I go to join the dev maillist

"Your file server, Linux, LVM, more."This is an e-mail I've sent to the person with the 24-drive file server.
--
Hi,
I'm sure you're getting a lot of mail from Slashdot readers. I'm sure a large majority of it is Linux evangelism.
Please bear with me. I'd like to share some facts about running a file server like yours on Linux that you may find interesting.
First, I'll start with a few big reasons you may be interested:
- LVM-the Logical Volume Manager. With LVM, you could combine all of these individual, small hard disks into what appears to be--and acts like--one large continuous file system. You can add more hard disks later to increase the size of the file system.
- No drive letters.
That means you can have more than 24 hard disks. Linux drives are usually mapped onto the global filesystem (unless you use LVM to combine several hard disks).
For example, if you didn't use LVM to combine your drives, you could choose one disk for
/home (personal settings and documents), one disk for /usr (most software), one disk for /var (miscellaneous program data files), a bunch of disks--one per directory (like "drive01", "drive02")--under a network file-serving directory, and one more disk for everything else not covered (the root directory). - Whether or not you use LVM, you can have much more than 24 hard disks. If you want to get really sophisticated, you can also spread your disks over a few computers, and combine them from one central Linux server. This is called Network Block Devices.
The rest of this comment is available at this link. Appearantly my comment wasn't good enough for the lameness filter. "Reason: Please use fewer 'junk' characters." View the original comment as it was entered in the form here and tell me if there seems to be too many junk characters. (I tried changing '--' to '&emdash;', hoping that would help get past the lameness filter. '&emdash;' doesn't work anyway, apparently.)

Big Brother watching
Big brother watching them, lol, that sucks!
that will lead to even higher demand of crypted communications for criminals(or just for people who want to discuss only with whom they are talking, and not also with some goverment agency) there.
So there would probably be some market for phones crypting you'r talk so that goverment agencies cannot decrypt it, perhaps i should take out my soldering iron and a pile of electronic junk like processors, eeproms, microphone, speaker...
i wonder how easy it would have been to make a phone like that =D perhaps at same time you could implement a button when pressed would mutate your voice also...
That would need a lot of processing power to first translate you'r voice from analogic to digital and incoming voice from digital and analogic and also crypting & decrypting it.
i mean a lot of processing power compared to some pic processors etc... actually it's merely nothing needed but a lot for small electronic gadgets...
perhaps somebody should start making such a device?
I'm glad i don't need to worry about somebody tapping my phone, if i remember right here they need atleast to inform the tapped person that they are tapping...
also there is a market share for devices detecting phone tapping...

so i can finally 'mutate' my voice when i wake up
So i can finally use some software to mutate my voice when i wake up my friend saying 'Hi, this is Detective X from LAPD' or something similar, and as he/she is so sleepy he/she won't check caller information but tries to recognize by voice... so that kind of phone would make it way more easier
;) i wonder how many mornings i have been waken up somebody saying something very odd on the phone and i cannot recognize the voice and just think, wtf, am i suspected about something? being so sleepy that i don't check the phone's screen for who it is... sometimes call was pretty shortly over and at somewhere middle of day i remember and check that caller information... Lol, best one to date have been someone calling me middle of night saying 'is your pillow allright?' and then giving me a long silence before i knew who it was =) Yeah, i know this is way offtopic... and yeah it's middle of night here, 5AM to be exact... perhaps time for a good 'night' sleep... Btw, to be in topic that kind of phone would give probably a lot of some nice features with it...

Re:Far more useful
romeo has one of those. not that he needs to use it, of course.

Re:...how is this news?> I notice one of these, ductape.net, offers IMAP...are there any other
Yup, atleast the following ones. Anyway, if someone is looking for a free shell account for serious use, I suggest joining a Linux/Unix users group, many of these provide with (free or almost free) shell access.
I had only these two free IMAP providers left in my bookmarks... sorry
:)

Microsoft Bought the ruling?From TQY3
For those of you who want ludicrous conspiracy theories:
Where most would believe that Steffi Graf has bought the judges ruling with sex or the like, I propose that it was actually Microsoft the purchased the judges ruling against themselves. Sounds too far fetched? Look at the pros and cons of the outcome. On the downside Microsoft has to pay fines. Gee, that has to hurt. Although, on the upside, Microsoft gets tons of great press. How great is this press? So great that even die hard slashdotting Microsoft haters are now feeling compassion for the monopolistic giant they have sworn to destroy. Now thats press worth paying for. -
Re:True, and...
I'm enjoying this discussion, but the moderators are for once, correct, it's very offtopic.
I have transferred it here

I put up a web page on my CD silkscreen adventures
In itself it's not directly addressing your issues, but it's definitely about one dude's adventure in trying to silkscreen CDs from scratch and I have pics.
Although I'm still waiting to get some of the chemicals to get my emulsion formula right, ie chromium tartrate, I painted silver CDRs (uncoated twenty cents a piece) with acrylic and had no problems with either damaging the CDs or drives.
Check the page if you want to see a down and dirty DIY effort.
There's also this earlier Slashdot thread that was supposed to be on automating CDR duplication but went into various other aspects of the job as well such as silkscreening and some debates about media pricing. -
Re:Getting warmer...
Hey DIY fan!
Check this out.
It's actually about PET plastic, but should be workable for polyacrylate as well. I've welded them together with solering irons, works great.
If you want to see a hardcore plan for using CDs, then check this one. I aint fucking around when it comes to recycling used CDs, or plastic bottles for that matter. -

Another mirrored imageHere's another image I've mirrored for the few people that will see this post. It's looking down the main isle, to the front.
I'm not karma-whoring, honest. If I am moderated up, well, I'm on a 33.6 and I could very well be Slashdotted worse than the original host of this web site. =)

Re:Dishnetwork, Linux and Satellite?
DVB is more common in Europe I guess.
I have the "biggest" Hauppauge DVB card, the WinTV-DVBs in my box. This is the card for sattelite broadcasts. A WinTV-DVBc exists as well which is for cable.
I use it daily. Linux support is nice !There are several projects around this family of cards (since they are all built on the same reference design, you can even exchange their software and driver on Windows I have been told). The card I am talking has hardware decoding of the media-stream. There exists a smaller one from Hauppauge which does the decoding with the CPU.
- The main site. Hosts the driver, has implemented the MHP (together with NOKIA, opensourced), and has references to the VDR project (see third link)
- the DVB driver for Linux (download page)
- Linux Video Recorder (DVB) (German, very detailed instrctions on setup and build.
- The VDR main-site
- Since the VDR was built to use the TV-Out the picture will go there. However, since they use the V4L interfaces one can use xawtv, KTV (or so) as well as the specialized Kvdr (which brings the complete VDR to the desktop). It is here (as well as an IPoverIEEE1394 and DV backup project)
- Extensions for the VDR
- VDR-NFSroot (also interesting)
- Resource and FAQ site
- Site of general DVB-s interest
- Now this guy has a dish in his garden that has several meters in diameter
:-) (WARNING: for freaks) - On EfNet IRC there is a channel #LinuxDVB. It is in German but since all Germans (well most) talk english they will help out for sure.
All in all I can say, that this is well supported and heavily used, at least in Germany. MPlayer is going to get DVB support soon (they will use its MPEG decoder for MPEG decoding).
I do not use the card for data-services, however, there is a driver for this on the drivers main-site. DVB data is one-way, so one still needs to have a modem connection open for upstream. I have been told that due to the whole continent using two or three providers the resources (bandwidth) on the sattelite is very used and xfer rates drop easily down to ISDN speed). So I would not recommend this (unless your family has rented their own transpoder).
There are people who have two or three of these cards in a small footprint Linux box, that they access over http or ssh and which is hooked to the TV. Along with some big drives they use it solely as VCR with timeshifting and also for DVD and MP3 playback (which is possible). The VDR project is LIRC compatible and has support for the WinTV-DVBs rev 2.1 IR control as well

Home Entertainment PC's are nothing newI know of plenty Home Entertainment PC's. When I was still in college, I needed a new computer, but a TV/VCR would have been nice to have also. Instead of getting a moderate PC and some home entertainment, I decided to spend all I could on my new PC and try to combine the two. Keep in mind it was 1996 and the tech was'nt as good as it is now. CD-Burners were still concidered new-wave stuff and TV capable video cards were nowhere near as abundant.
I put together a P233 with a 17" Monitor and Home Stereo Speakers driven off a small 40 Watt Car Audio Amp that was powered from the 12 Volt leads on my computer Power Supply (Some small Capacitor Mods needed for cleanliness).
This Unit served as my Computer, Internet Surfer, CD/Wav/MP3 Player, TV, Video Recorder (athough space was real tight if you wanted more than one show), and most importantly my Gaming Machine. After I got a VCR, It would play movies as well as my new Play Station. It looked better than a TV in fullscreen mode, and sounded great. It was more than enough to satisfy a geek cramped in a little pad, and impressed all my friends that came to visit and play Tekken.There are many good and bad points to having a setup like this though. For a single guy in school its great, but any more than that would require more than one PC. (IE. Woman wants TV, I want Web.)
I now have an actual Entertainment center (Mostly for the Woman) and two Entertainment PCs. When I decided I needed more processing power, I designed my new unit with all the same features. It's a bit better of course with a 19" Monitor, DVD-Rom, better video in/out, and an 80 Watt amp, but the idea is the same.As for the old 233, I upgraded it to a 450 and gave it some other new equipment. Now it's known as the bedroom box. Perfect for TV in bed, watching movies, Musical Alarm Clock, and checking slashdot before coffee.
As for the market on this idea, the only thing to say is slow. I work at Local PC sales and repair shop and I suggested building Home Entertainment PCs as part of our sales line. I could make them for a reasonable price, but the salesmen just could'nt move them out very well. Most people were not intrested because they already have a nice Entertainment Center. They want a PC at a good price and thats it. As to be expected, the only people that wanted our HEPCs was the soon to be college student who was going to be stuck in the dorms for a couple years, a few geeks that wanted everything and more, and a few old guys that found them perfect for hiding in their shop/study/office away from the wife. The rest of the market just was'nt ready.
If time allows, maybe I'll recap this post on TQY3, with some pictures and better descriptions of my experience with HEPC's.

History of Atari
A couple of days ago, I posted an article about The History of Atari on TQY3. It was'nt meant to directly compare the Atari Systems to modern day, but instead allow the reader to make thier own decisions on the future of gaming through historical education. Far from required reading, but if you were an Atari Child or have intrest in Atari's History, I'd Suggest giving it a peek.
