  2. New URL for the SW lego project by ardran · · Score: 2 · on Monty Python and The Matrix LEGO

    Speaking of which... I didn't check out the Star Wars Lego project the first time around, and it appears that the URL has changed (poor guy probably got kicked off his previous hosting after the beating /. gave their servers...). I tracked it down by backing up a directory.. the english version appears to be now available at http://www5b.biglobe.ne.jp/~mbsf/swo rde .htm.

  3. Original (?) page by xodiak · · Score: 1 · on The Star Wars Trilogy Storyline -- In Legos

    I went to the URL listed, cut off the file name. And there was a link to this page. http://www5b.biglobe.ne.jp/~mbsf/sworde.htm

  4. Just finishing the same thing by SredniVashtar · · Score: 1 · on Using Automated CD Duplicators as Mass MP3 Converters?
    I just finished up the same task. I converted my CDs to MP3 format for use in a home-jukebox type application.

    I think that a CD changer would be far too expensive for such a limited task (unless you're going to start a business doing it for others). The best bet is to find a fast encoder and flip disks by hand.

    I found that CD2WAV32 (found here) worked the best for me. I did manage to stumble on the gogo.dll, which encoded MP3's in very short order. I had been using BladeEnc to start, and was waiting more than an hour per CD. GoGo was fast enough to cut that time to about 15 minutes/CD.

    The other major issue that bugged me was the CDDB process. In most cases CDDB information is correct (properly spelled, formatted, etc). In other cases, some fool had misspelled things or put everything in lowercase characters, which caused about 25% of CDDB info I recieved to need editing.

    It's not simply enough to rip the tracks. You need to preserve some sort of information about the tracks. If you're a (near)perfectionist like me, you'll want the info to be correct...

  5. Re:Where by DaveHowe · · Score: 1 · on Eclipse Today, Meteor Shower Friday

    Probably a bit late for you now (grin) but I used the excellent free eclipse mapper from: Here
    It has the "basic" data on eclipses up to 2200, and there are additional data packs on the same page for anyone planning to be alive after then :+)
    One thing that IS worth doing is adding your own local details into the location.new file after you expand the archive.
