Using Winamp vis. Plugins with xmms

Please welcome Winamp Visualization Plugins for XMMS, available now!"
Jesus Christ, can Slashdot get one fucking thing right?
The "getting-it-on" department? I hope you and Timothy aren't THAT lonely today!
(Where is the rest of the crew lately anyway?)
I've had enough abrasive sigs. Kittens are cute and fuzzy.

I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Horror/Sci Fi writer Stephen King was found dead in his Maine home this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his work, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. First Ann Landers, now this. Truly an American icon.
Before anyone praises "On2 Technologies" too much, you should be aware of their product line. VP3 is their old leftovers. They've since improved it and release VP4, and recently made more improvments and released the VP5 codec. They've been giving VP3 away for some time, as more of a demo of what their newer technologies can do better.
While it's better then nothing, (we certainly need an open video codec), but On2 isn't exactly fully on the Open Source wagon.

Also, Linux is ghey. Thanks!
I can write haikus. Apparently you cannot. It's five-seven-five.
I'm talking about Winamp 3 -- it's almost totally different from Winamp 2, and pretty much everything that Winamp 2 didn't do well, Winamp 3 does. I guess I shouldn't pass judgement until I see WA 3 Final on Linux. At that point, it'll be a better time to compare players.

Lots of trolls around at the moment.
What's up trolls? Why are you coming out from under those bridges?

%description
TransGaming WineX is a derivative of the Wine project. Wine is an implementation of the Microsoft® Win32® APIs on top of UNIX and X-Windows - in essence, it is a Windows® compatibility layer. Wine does not require Microsoft Windows to be installed, as it provides an alternative implementation of Windows written from scratch with no Microsoft code whatever.
TransGaming WineX includes a new implementation of the Microsoft DirectX multimedia APIs, including Direct3D - the core graphics system most Windows games use for hardware accelerated 3D.

I tried to introduce ryan to Linux once... he couldn't wrap his mind around the open source concept, for one thing, and he just didn't dig X.
As for the apartment, yeah, I lived there for two years with those fools, but left before the ceiling fell into the kitchen, before the third floor railing fell down, and at about the time the vomit stains on the wall behind the toilet started to decompose the drywall. Still talk to 'em all fairly often. Ryan's gone all weird(er) and worships trees now. And as for Vince... he's still in grad school. Since he reached the epitome of weirdness some time in '94, he can't really get any more weird.

Heh. I paid rent from Au 97 to Sp 99... I think I remember you guys. I think I once talked about running network cable between the aprtments through the attic.
And before the offtopic karma eating moderators come and whup my ass... this conversation might be better suited to e-mail.
