  1. Thumbnailing = Reducing In Size on 9th Circuit Court Finds 'Thumbnailing' Fair Use · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Then it should be legal for me to download music in compressed form!

    Actually, I think that is a great analogy -- mp3 is to audio as thumbnails are to images.

    After all, an mp3 is a lower quality audio file resulting in a smaller file size.

  2. Re:What are we trying to achive?? on CD Duplicator Refuses Linux Job, Citing MS Contract · · Score: 1

    The movie "My Cousin Vinny" was directed by Jonathan Lynn, not Marisa Tomei.

  3. Re:What about the ASUS Pundit? Whoaaa on World's Smallest Desktop Pentium4? · · Score: 1

    It looks like they took an old desktop pc and stood it up, tower-like.

    Is it a tower!?

    Is it a desktop!?

    WHAT A REAL MIND FSCK!

  6. Perspective. on Why Johnny Can't Handwrite · · Score: 2, Interesting

    With the advent of mechanical/disposable pens, the skill required to use quills and ink wells is not tought in handwriting class anymore.

    Point being, pens are tools to convey our thoughts and feelings. They are also being replaced by the personal computer.

  8. Google Cache of 1014.org on Justin Frankel Resigns From Nullsoft · · Score: 1

    So far no one has posted this: Google Cache of 1014.org

  9. Is she real? on Aimee Deep Interview · · Score: 3, Interesting

    What nobody seems to have pointed out are that the two images of "Aimee Deep" - one on Madster.com, and one on MusicPundit.com - don't look like the same person!

    Exhibit A

    Exhibit B

  10. In related news... on Kiro, the Foosball Robot · · Score: 1

    ... a table hockey version is also reported to be "in the works."

  11. RTFM Indeed! on Ask Bram Cohen about BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    In windows, XP for example, follow these steps.

    1) Open up any folder.
    2) Goto Tools > Folder Options.
    3) Select the File Types tab.
    4) Scroll down to TORRENT.
    5) Click the Advanced button.
    6) Click the Edit button.
    7) In the "Application" text box, add the max upload argument.
    8) Click OK, click OK again, then click OK one last time. ;)

  12. Re:Are you a tool of Satan? - RTFM on Ask Bram Cohen about BitTorrent · · Score: 3, Informative

    If you're on a win32 box, you can run:

    "btdownloadgui.exe --max_upload_rate [X] --responsefile file.torrent"

    Where [X] is the rate of kB/s. This will throttle the bandwith available to BitTorrent.

    On a *nix box, I believe you just subsitute ".py" for ".exe"

  13. Re:NAT on Ask Bram Cohen about BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    I would like to see BitTorrent support UPnP for port forwarding for those of us behind router/switches.

    Also, playing in widescreen, 1080i format?

    Sweetness.

  15. Enjoyment on Enter The Matrix - Patches, No Reviews? · · Score: 1

    A proud xbox owner, I'm on the Airport level of Enter the Matrix, and thus far there have been some great moments.

    For example, there was a section of a level where the character on the 2nd floor surrounded by SWAT teams with machine guns. In order to get to the 1st floor, you can take the escalator, or, in true Matrix fashion, take a running leap over the edge of the balcony in bullet-time, guns drawn, firing at the enemy on the way down, hitting the ground, tucking and rolling and making a quick escape.

    Woof.

    The further into this game I get, the more fun I'm having!

  16. Re:Why oh why... on ReplayTV May Drop "Commercial Advance" · · Score: 1

    In the hopes that they will become more 'network friendly', and thus, better product positioning from said networks.

  17. Re:Before the flames begin. on ReplayTV May Drop "Commercial Advance" · · Score: 1

    Funny, I thought that's what I paid for on my monthly bill.

    I certainly wouldn't pay to have phone service where I *also* had to listen to advertisements.

  19. accountability? on Peer Pressure Porn Filter · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Man, if I'm watching some porn and my girlfriend walks into the room, she just shakes her head and laughs. And vice versa. People are prudes.
