Yeah, I know about Dumpster, but the program is very outdated (at least the win 32 version is), today it seems most Quicktimes contain an rmra atom which is the entire file, and also appears to be compressed. And Dumpster doesn't know about it.
You seem to know a lot about Quicktime - some Quicktimes can't be converted to mpg because they don't allow other applicastions to read the sound - do you know a way to do this?
What if Reloaded is that way? What if there's a couple of cool battle scenes, but it's tied together by a flimsy plot designed to place those characters into that situation?
What do you mean *IF*? Its a 99% certainty that its going to be a shallow stupid story (like most commercial movies today) but its also certain it will have the wildest effects seen for a long time. Know that when you go in, and chances are you won't be that upset.
Oh, and to head off all the "But the PATRIOT Act.." replies I'm sure to get, I firmly believe that its wire tap provisions are too ambiguous and when truly challenged in the Supreme Court, it will be shot down. Amazing how the whole checks and balances thing works, isn't it?
That's what they said in Iraq 25 years ago (Or Germany in the thirties for that matter)
Okay, granted, I'm not one of them myself. I wear glasses and a size 15. I have hips. I even kinda like my hips
Now I have no idea what a "size 15" is, but its not the size of this hips that matters so much, its the size relationship they have to the waist. The wast majority of men (wether they know it or not) are attracted to hip waist ratio of 0.7 Text version here - PDF here
In case you missed your history classes, the US "Founding Fathers" didn't trust government. In fact, they felt that government was not trustworthy. That is why there was the attempt to put all the checks and balances in place.
And in case you missed the news, the current government are busy removing all those checks one check at a time...
The future holds refinement. Defining the mass of a wall maybe. Say instead of a wall simply blackening when a rocket is fired, a chunk of it is blasted out, based on the type of weapon, and to go even farther, we shoot a nailgun at that, and nails are embedded inside the crater.
Yeah, i've been waiting for that for ages. I wanna be able to level a level! (Carmack you listning?:)
I also realized I kind of skated around your question of why it is at all enjoyable. There is a concept called "runner's high". This is mostly from the release of endorphins. How long it takes before it kicks in depends a lot on the person, but when I first started walking, it was about 20 minutes.
Yes, i've heard of runner's high, but that doesn't sound entirely appealing to me. That sounds as if you become an addict in the literal sense of the word?

But carrier of what i wonder... SARS perhaps? Eeek!

Thanks for the suggestion though.

are politics.
That's the large version? ( Yeah i know it is), but the quality isn't overly impressive - Apple trying to shaft T3?
Their web sites shal be assimilated!
the Gattling guns aren't what makes Predator good, it's the shit-hot editing and great music combined with an Alien that doesn't speak English.
:)
Ah com on! Arnold does speak English! (He just has a think accent
Or is the time traveling confusing me again?
When isn't leather a joke...

How can they copyright Strawberry Shortcake?
Note the lack of the phrase "without a warrant" in this sentence.
That's implied.

Hey, this is interesting. Give the guy a cigar :)
How do you vote anyway? :)
Using moral criterea, it can be universally agreed upon that murder is a crime.
Which is basically irrelevant since murder only describes the unlawfull taking of a life, and everybody will rationalize their killing as lawfull.
He was being ironic! Geeeze some people!

...I thought it was a funny story ... damn there is a lot of lag on slashdot lately...
