If you want to keep it low bandwith mono go with the 16k encodeing, the 8.5k sounds like your talking into a tin can. I could only understand 50% of what you where saying. or just tell people to get the mp3. The whole show was only 1.8megs downloaded. propritary formats with crapy players suck
If your encoding to mp3 first then to ra, run it through a tape player or a cd if ya can to keep the sound "whole" instead of converting the file.
I doubt they would do that... what they should to is use the same RAW wave file, I'm not sure why you would want to run an aditional A/D conversion on it, wouldn't that just degrade it much more?
I was able to start listening to the mp3 a few seconds after I started downloading it, and listen the whole way though, with my 56k modem. it's so much nicer to have a *standard* that *works* instaid of a proprietary format that keeps changing, and is incompatable with old versions of the software. --------------- Chad Okere
I liked it, perhaps if the upped the sample rate a little it would be easy to listen to, you might consider doing higher bandwidth versions. What's nice about it is that it's just acouple of people talking, really pretty funy stuff. obviously theres no reason to listen to it for informational value, so entertainment is all there is. It might be nicer to only have one person talking at once, but its not really that impornant --------------- Chad Okere
Have you ever noticed that whenever anyone starts to talk hacking, they always mention how the number of hacks is increasing, the number of breaking *doubled* since 1997 or whatever? Is it just me, or is this completely natural, and expected? I mean the *Internet* itself is growing at an amazing rate, why should we expect that a property of networks, hacking, should become less relevant? Saying that the number of break-ins has doubled in the past year is like saying that more people are murdered in LA than in Kelly Iowa (something like 300 people). what this is, is FUD as far as I'm concerned, if you can't spit out some *relevant* numbers, then you don't deserve to be listened to (like the number of hacks/host, or the number of hacks/user. And if the *rate* of increase in hacking is higher or lower then the rate of growth of the Internet) _ "Subtle mind control? Why do all these HTML buttons say 'Submit' ?"
they should just tack MMX and SSE onto the 386 core, and then embed that in the Merced... then forget about it... it's running at like 10gigahz, or whatever. so it'll at least be as fast as regular chips... _ "Subtle mind control? Why do all these HTML buttons say 'Submit' ?"

Look at Netscape/Microsoft -- they weren't able to export 128-bit versions of their browsers for years because of munitions export laws. Non-US-developed "wrappers" for Netscape Navigator/MS Internet Explorer shortly popped up, however, giving the 40-bit export versions of the browsers nearly the same functionality as the 128-bit versions. Who got screwed? Netscape and MS. Who accomplished nothing? The US government.
no your wrong... how many people do you know who installed the 'wrapper' how many people do you know who bother to download US only versions (there's more to it then clicking 'yes I'm a US citizen').
so.. *most* people aren't using strong encryption. No one in the US bothers to try and make strong crypto code, because distributing it would be a pain in the ass. As a result most people in the US don't even *use* any encryption, so the government is free to do whatever it wants. How many people do you know who use non-US software? (not counting the linux kernel, to bad Torvlads is in the US now, and can't put strong crypto in...:) I'd be willing to bet not many.
I think that's there whole plan, they can't *crack* crypto, and they know they can't *really* stop it from being put in the hands of 'intelegent' criminals. All they can do is slow it down.
Can you imagen what where the internet would be right now as far as the use of encription could be right now if it wern't for the US's exsport restrictions? My guess is that it would be a lot farther along then it is right now. They know what there doing, I think.

Check out this review of American pie by those same people.
and this revie of Austen powers, including: n other scenes of nudity, convenient objects were used to hide his genitalia -- and ONLY his genitalia. Convenient objects used included furniture, a clock, and textblocks of the names of actors/actresses. In one instance a baby's head was used to hide Powers' genitalia -- and yes, the baby was facing Powers, in the same way DiCaprio's head in *Titanic* was used to hide Winslett's genitalia, but the baby's head was much smaller in perspective than DiCaprio's, thus, less was hidden. Though the baby was an animated baby (like the *Dancing Baby*), what pedophilial signal do you suppose was sent by this scene?
and this gem:
This configuration of shadows made it seem that Shagwell was directly behind him. As Shagwell reached in the bag, the shadows made it appear that she was reaching inside Power's colon. As she stretched to reach deeper into the bag, the shadows appeared as if she was slowly shoving her arm into him up to above her elbow. Dr. Larry Burthoft for Focus on the Family claims this act, when done by homosexuals, is called "fisting."
From the review of 'the matrix' -- *he was resurrected from the dead* -- by a kiss, no less. One character in "The Matrix" mocked our Lord by telling the hero that he was "[His] own personal Jesus Christ." And slowly the movie built the Matrix as having the power and authority of God to create and provide for the people. And at the end of the show the central hero narrated a piece to promote anarchy: "No rules. No boundaries." A most sly movie......sly almost to invisibility about its position regarding the King of kings and Lord of lords, about His Authority, AND about our subservience to it.
From Star Wars episode 1 the phantom menace "Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace" (PG) -- Not one. No, not one single instance of foul language or nudity or sexual activity was noted! And no drugs/alcohol! And not one instance of God's name in vain with or without the four letter expletive! Good job, Lucas! But maybe that is not enough.
