Re:Ogg encoder was way slow

On: Ogg beats MP3 & The Rest In Listening Test

According to my experience, LAME using its VBR mode is in fact is a lot slower than oggenc. Of course, LAME is lots faster if you use CBR mode, but that's totally braindead anyway if you're interested in sound quality with sensible bitrates.

Many people prefer Winamp, which has a very good Ogg Vorbis player plugin available.

Sasl? Mysql libs?

And that gpm lib takes 44412 bytes of space -- horrible...

xchat has also a win32 binary, and it uses gtk. Though, it isn't as stable as the *nix version, I think...

Ext2 has never had such 2 GB file size limit.

Re:stopped using KDE

On: Galeon At A Glance

Yeah, but that's not the same thing. I don't want to have insanely big fonts, I just don't want to have insanely small fonts.

Re:stopped using KDE

On: Galeon At A Glance

I would be using Galeon right now, but there's one feature in Konqueror what I've not found in other browsers: "Minimum Font Size" (in Konqueror Browser - Appearance tab). I've set it to 12. I don't want to have all the fonts in pages to be insanely big, but I also hate that itty-bitty-8-or-10-size font.

Can anything similar to this be done with Galeon? I wish I could.

Arg, the book cover on picture looks ugly compared to the Finnish version. Ehh. But the book was good.
