Links to several hundred (thousand) music videos on Youtube!

Oh, and as for people saying "Videos are advertising! They should be free!"
What do you say about iTunes?
You used to be able to video music videos for free. I watched a few. They didn't really have that many, though. Then they started with selling TV shows, and they no longer offered free music videos. They sell those for 1.99 too. So they're making they're money off of the music videos now too!

Hmmm. That does make sense (after translation :-). The cluster's name (1E0657-56) is also used in the url on the NASA site (chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2006/1e0657/)

I've done a bit of sailing on the Warren 35 that is based in Beverly. Quite a trick boat, 35 foot trimiran that is trailerable. Another awesome one is Tiny Dancer I and II, both proas (think two hulled trimaran...) We kidded him with Tiny Dancer II did make the weight goal of 100lbs.

Nice to see him in the news. Check out his web site, he's a good guy.

The "Ultimate Boot CD" you mention isn't running BartPE. It includes DOS tools and Linux tools. Disk based diagnostic tools and such.

"You need the Ultimate Boot CD if you want to Run floppy-based diagnostic tools from CDROM drives, Free yourself from the slow loading speed of the floppy drive, or Consolidate as many diagnostic tools as possible into one bootable CD."

http://ultimatebootcd.com.nyud.net:8090/

I don't know what it's built with or runs on, but the full version includes an environment like Knnoppix. The basic version doesn't, but includes a basic menu driven system to run disk-based tools.

The Windows version is called UBCD4Win, which I posted about below.

Both are good options, both do different things. Both would be good additions to any troubleshooters collection. :)

How long does Anonymous have to wait before posting again? ....Slow Down Cowboy!
This /s/ucks. /b/astards!

They're rather boring, but movies can be found here of the synchroton-radiation X-ray tomographic microscopy.

I actually like UBCD4Win. It uses BartPE but includes a slew of utilities that come in handy.

It includes antivirus tools, email/internet browsers, cd burners, disk imagers/copiers, defrag tools, diagnostic tools, partitioning tools, security tools, disk wiping tools, file recovery tools (undeleters), malware tools, antispyware tools, network tools, ftp, vnc, password tools, registry tools, it lets you run dos programs, it lets you use your modem, it has stress testing and benchmarking, and others. All freeware and all included with the base download. To get those with BartPE you'd have to do a lot of your own downloading. Having them all in one place is great, and includes stuff you may not have known about or been unsure of it it'd work. I believe they also have it set up so the programs you run (like spybot or adaware) actually check your host computer and not the CD (i.e. needs a special launcher).

It's a must read: "The Kentucky Derby is Decadent and Depraved". Personally I blame the decline on the lack of good drugs. =)

Except in special circumstances (e.g., certain government facilities), there are no laws prohibiting the taking of photographs on public or private property. If you can be there, you can take pictures there: streets, malls, parking lots, office buildings. You do not need permission to do so, even on private property.

Trespassing laws naturally apply. If a property owner demands you leave, you must. But if a place is open to the public -- a mall, office-building lobby, etc. -- permission to enter is assumed (although it can be revoked).

In terms of the law, trespass and photography are separate events; the former is illegal, but the latter is not. Only if the use of photographic equipment itself violates a person's privacy (e.g., by using a long lens to look into someone's private room) might it violate privacy law. Further, while people have a right of privacy, businesses do not except as it relates to trade secrets.

Subject to specific limits, photographers can publish any photos they take, provided those photos do not violate the privacy of the subject. This includes photos taken while trespassing or otherwise being someplace they shouldn't be. Taking photos and publishing photos are two separate issues.

Please read the full PDF here with much more detail. I print copies of this on 4x5 index cards and keep them with me at all times when I'm taking photos in any public place.

Also, if someone demands your "film" or your camera, let them know that it is not legal for them to take it, unless you have been arrested of a crime involving that camera and that film. The crime for someone to demand and take your camera or film, is called theft, and threatening to do so (or to "break your camera"), is called coercion. Don't tolerate either of them, and if your equipment IS taken or broken, call the police and file charges.

Know your rights, and don't tolerate this supression.

The acceptable face of spyware

Dear Bill:

The following argument is so old it should probably be modded redundant, but given Steve's mental faculties, perhaps it bears repeating.

1 - Pirates will not be hurt by this as they have corporate keys, etc
2 - Genuine customers will be annoyed by this
3- Therefore this makes no sense

By presupposing your customers are dishonest Microsoft creates tremendous ill-will. This would, of course, normally be a bad thing. Worse - they have that nice monopoly so it doesn't really matter. This causes unhappiness and resentment, even amongst ridiculous Redmond fanbois like Paul Thurrott and Ed Bott.

So, my friends, there is only one way out. If we want to be happy, Windows must be kill -9'd.

Easy, December 8, 1941. Here's a pic. Also see Declarations of war by the United States.

Some resolutions have come close like Gulf of Tonkin Resolution but there has not been a formal declaration of war in accordance with the US Constitution since 1941. The fact that George II every day keeps repeating the mantra "We're at war." shows his either his treachery, total ignorance or "a little from column A, a little from column B".

Well, I've seeded the Coral Cache for that pic, should it be needed:

Newsforge has no technical information, and Freeswitch is largely Slashdotted, but there's one sentence that says that they're using the Speex Wideband Codec as their 16kbps codec. One reason Speex is using 16khz sampling is because it's relatively available on PC sound cards, but another reason is that they do a cute sub-band coding technique - instead of representing the 8kHz analog waveform by directly encoding the 16k samples/second, they split the information into two bands - 0-4kHz which they encode using the same encoding they use for their 8kbps codec, and 4-8kHz which they encode (somewhat differently, for complex technical reasons :-) to provide additional depth for receivers that support the wideband format. So if you've got a wideband codec encoding the speech at 16kbps, you can play it on an 8kbps player if that's all you've got. For a live conversation between two software-phones, that's not particularly useful (except for a bit of code reuse), but if you're playing recorded files or setting up a multipoint conference between some 8kbps phones and some 16kbps phones, it's easy to send each phone what it wants.

It really blows my mind that a corral cache link isn't automatically added to submitted stories... just a little (cc) afterwards with the cc being a link would suffice.

The print version and because that didn't work for me, the same via coral cache

I sort of see the key insight of Briscoe, Odlyzko, and Tilly that, if you are going to pull a function out of your ass, it makes more sense if the differential of the function flattens out rather than slopes linearly upwards forever, because there is ultimately a decreasing value of each connection as the number of connections increases.

So they were correct to pull a log function of of their ass, but they could have just as easily pulled out n*ln(n) or some other base. They made no attempt to "calibrate" the model.

A good insigt is this quotation:

"Iif Metcalfe's Law were true, it would create overwhelming incentives for all networks relying on the same technology to merge, or at least to interconnect. These incentives would make isolated networks hard to explain. Consider two networks, each with n members. By Metcalfe's Law, each one's value is on the order of n 2, so the total value of both of these separate networks is roughly 2n 2. But suppose these two networks merge. Then we will effectively have a single network with 2n members, which, by Metcalfe's Law, will be worth (2n)2 or 4n 2--twice as much as the combined value of the two separate networks.

Surely it would require a singularly obtuse management, to say nothing of stunningly inefficient financial markets, to fail to seize this obvious opportunity to double total network value by simply combining the two."

Inflating these "synergies" was exactly what led to the Bombing Off of the Bubble.

I'm sure you mean Upper Canada Village . (After all, Canada is from the Huron word kanata, or village.)

http://www.haverford.edu.nyud.net:8090/physics-ast ro/songs/ Coral cached it so it doesn't get slashdotted.

report the webpage and you're done.

Geocities is a kinda abandoned place (So much that webcomics make fun of it). There's no customer service, everything's automated there. The only thing that (I hope) isn't, is the "report offensive page" etc. The only change done to it was aesthetic and in the code. But the infrastructure remains.

In other words, geocities servers do NOT have personnel searching and identifying phishing sites on them. They have to rely on the users.

(This and popup ads led to the fall of free homepages. Most pages now are categorized in specialized sites: webcomics, blogs, art, fiction, and with youtube, videos).

This was bound to happen sooner or later. Yahoo neglected geocities, is it a mystery that it became a meeting point for illegal activities?

Since the video from the blurb uses akamai, it's probably a good idea to use coral cache for the mpeg.

As above

I loved the hell out of this mag. Besides a few issues after the opening December 1988 edition, I used to have every issue that VG&CE produced from beginning to end. Even after they changed their name to "VideoGames" and did a complete overhaul of the book, I managed to start liking it again after about a year's shakedown period. Unfortunately I don't know where most of my copies went; I was thinking about scanning my entire collection at one point. Along with the pre-N64 era of Nintendo Power, this is the magazine I miss the most.
