I believe it will whine about some other missing files, like cygwin1.dll. I'll reply with those filenames and more info later when I'm on a Windows machine. Basically, though, if you just want to burn an ISO, cdrecord is simple, once you figure out what options you want to use. It should be simple, though, to put a GUI on it.
When I found out about this at work, I was exstatic(sp?)! It meant I could legally leave the crufty point-and-grunt interface that came with my HP cd burner. I'm also quite familiar with cdrecord from my Linux machine, which helps.
Come on, you've been here long enough that you should by now know how to make a link. If you think people might be afraid of what it is, post the text for the foil-heads and a real link for convenience.
Good-looking women will sell stuff, no matter what it is. Be it neat cell phone-camera combos, or the latest games that require you to blow up monsters.
If you google for "lance armstrong espn commercial" and hit "I'm Feeling Lucky!", the first page will provide you a link to an mpeg of just that commercial.

It's courtesy of a link from the ever-awesome memepool about No-Scalpel Vasectomy. I was quite tired at the time (so I probably found it unusually hilarious) but it was too good to pass up.
8. What are the alternatives for birth control? Tubal ligation is the most often considered alternative, but it requires a much more invasive surgery and much more pain to the patient. Tubal ligations may also increase premenstrual syndrome symptoms, and a recent study showed an overall pregnancy rate of 1 in 40, far higher than vasectomy. Birth control pills have about the same effectiveness as vasectomy, but are far more expensive and bring with them hormonal side effects. Condoms and foam together also nearly equal the effectiveness of vasectomy, but are inconvenient and in the long run, costly. Either one alone is far less effective. IUDs (intrauterine devices) are less effective and increase the risk of pelvic inflammatory infections. Diaphragms and spermicidal foam have a lesser effectiveness and an increased risk of urinary tract infection. Withdrawal before climax is very ineffective and those who try this are usually called "parents." For all these reasons, it is my feeling that men who have vasectomies are being responsible and kind to their sexual partners.
I've set it as the sig on one of my mail accounts, but usually delete it when composing the mail. Especially if I don't want to offend the person. But, anything goes here, so...
[I'm envisioning a simple black shirt with that written on it in nice, white, bold letters... After all, if it's tattooed to someone's forehead, they won't be able to see it that often.]
They even archive linked files and images. So, you could post your old mailboxes. Encrypt them, if needed. By the time future archeologists find it, it should be easily crackable, if legal.
You should have posted a link to MRTG so I didn't have to tell Google that I was feeling lucky!:-)
Wow. I've seen graphs like this before, but didn't know what the programs were called. I always thought they were from Apache. I'll have to check out MRTG when I get home this evening. Thanks for mentioning it.
Well, you see.. at the time, I was thinking two things:
1) I like the Internet Archive, and don't want to hurt them by sending the Slashdrones there just to see some dumb pictures.
2) Holy CRAP! This is going to give me SO MUCH KARMA!!!
So, between those two things, I only had time to put up those text links. Besides, it meant that the people that downloaded them were only the ones who really wanted to.
But thank you for your nifty script. You deserve the karma more than I do (except that you're just a little too late).

How about the movie Toys? This evil General guy has kids playing flight simulator-like games that are acutually controlling real planes and blowing up real buildings and such, but the kids just think it's a game.
I've recently re-discovered One Must Fall: 2097 where you control a huge robot and fight against the computer, so it came to mind, as well. Okay, so it's not OGL. It's just low-resolution video modes that require at least a 386dx40 to work well. But it's still a fun game.
I think we all know that this would be a very bad thing to do.
Also, don't think that if you get "spray chalk" that it will actually wash away. I know that OSU students are probably familiar (Woohoo! ALTERNATIVE thingy on May 18th!) with this. Some of our Undergrad Student Government candidates spray chalked the sidewalks asking people to vote for them. The elections are long over and still, the plea remains. I think they won, so they don't look like *complete* idiots.

No, asfrecorder does not work on this url, I tried and would not have gone to all this trouble if it did.
Stream it once. Watch it n times. Effectively using 1/nth the bandwidth. (n > 0, of course
I like how they took the time to blur the titles on the magazines as if they haven't the money to buy the rights to use those magazines in their promo.
Try cdrecord for Windows.
You'll need an ASPI driver, too.
I believe it will whine about some other missing files, like cygwin1.dll. I'll reply with those filenames and more info later when I'm on a Windows machine. Basically, though, if you just want to burn an ISO, cdrecord is simple, once you figure out what options you want to use. It should be simple, though, to put a GUI on it.
