  1. Re:Fat pipes and little VMs on Theora Codec Ported to Java · · Score: 1

    With MPlayer on Linux I can play VOBs pretty close to real time; still can play MPEG-4 720x480 quite well on Windows 98SE, same program. I have a 700 MHz Celeron

  5. Re:Hmmm on Revenge Really Does Taste Sweet · · Score: 1

    People misinterpret "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth". It actually meant, originally, DON'T hurt someone any more than they hurt you, when exacting revenge! It was a limiter, intended to stop the situation where for example, someone might slap you across teh face, and you kill his entire family in revenge.

    I think it's called "committing" a person.

    TORRENT?!! WHERE?!!!!!!!! *dies* MUST HAVE !!! *dies again*

    These ruos are the last vestiges of hope for those of us who believe the pure, unadulterated form of the trilogy, as evidenced by pre-1995 releases, is the One True Version. Forget about the Special Edition; it's good, but it's not as good as the real deal.

  14. Re:Interesting on Marian The Robot Librarian · · Score: 1

    Around a couple larger libraries I've been to (a city library and a college library) I've found stuff that I couldn't find in smaller libraries, I think that having the material online is a nice feature, which I have aimed for when I could. At some libraries, they have hard-to-find translations of the Bible. (e.g., the Niagara Falls Public Library has the Tyndale 1534 New Testament in a modern-spelling edition). Based on the inspiration from that work I created the Tomson New Testament modern-spelling version, I think I had one of the first such renderings, certainly it's the only complete HTML one I know of (the other complete one is PDF, and poorly formatted). The WWW can make hard to find stuff much easier to find.

  19. Sounds great. on Verizon Announces FTTP Prices · · Score: 1

    As a Verizon customer, I welcome this (can we say "fiberoptic overlords" anyone?), but question is, will I ever see it here in Niagara Falls, NY? I'll sure as hell be willing to lay out the mondo smackers for 30 Mbps fiber, as I do a lot of filesharing on IRC and BT.

    Is it *identical* codewise to any particular version of Mozilla? Do we know that for a fact, is there proof? I'm quite sure that although Mozilla is O/S, Netscape 7 is not.

  22. Re:Unfamilliarity on Mozilla Foundation Seeking Switch Success Stories · · Score: 1

    Our library's computers have always run both Netscape and IE; previously, NS 4.7; now, 7.1.

    Firefox would be better because it's O/S, but I'll live with Netscape 7, it's still insanely better than Internet Exploder. XD
