...copyright-lovers who are thinking "you don't have the right to 'sample' a movie before deciding if it's worth the money! especially if its precious anime!", I have this to say...
...Especially if its not being played in any theaters near you. Looking at IMDB's show times, the nearest theater from me is 180 miles away.
I think this movie deserves better theater release. But until movie makers give proper movies better coverage, I think I will find other means of getting my entertainment.
I don't know what kind they gave you, but my Motorola Surfboard SB3100 they gave me 3 years ago, when AT&T Broadband was my ISP, is still kicking and screaming. It's actually outlasted my Linksys BEFSR41 Router in lifespan. I have noticed those newer Surfboard's seem kind of flimsy as if they're made of cheap plastic.
I hope his pants get caught and a bloodbath ensues. What is with you today ?
I don't wish the kid harm, but his mother should suffer that horrific ordeal...
So she'll learn how to manage her child ! Sort of a harsh lesson.
Man, there's not a year goes by...
That I don't read about some escalator accident involving some bastard kid...
That could've been easily avoided had some parent-- I don't care which one--
But some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that escalator !
Though these WiFi Trackers do sound like a good idea, maybe if the parents kept a good eye on their children, the need for these trackers could be avoided.
My favorite comments are from PS2 and XBox fanboys who say and I quote, "Nintendo sucks! GameCube sucks!"
These gamers obviously have no appreciation for the old days of video games with the sprite graphics and MIDI music - The days when Nintendo helped to innovate and revolutionize the video game industry, bringing it into mainstream.
Yeah, Sony definitely brought upon a new age of video games and a whole new generation of gamers, many of whom don't know the history we Original Gamers think back upon. But it was the classics like Atari, Commodore, Sega and Nintendo who helped start it all.
install a high pass filter with a cut-off that takes the analog cable frequencies out.
Speaking of those filters, I had a friend who worked for Comcast when it was AT&T in my area. Before the filters, one could get basic cable, like my friend did. Then when they installed the filters, he climbed up the pole late one night, removed the filter, drilled out all it's special material to filter the signal, and placed it back in the line. Free basic cable again.
But since he used to work for Comcast, I guess he knew what he was doing.
Well, you did hit the nail right on the head. The bands are pretty poor as are we. But my coworker and I have been trying to get into small businesses too, but our manager (also our sales rep) is more concerned about increasing his popularity in the local music scene than actually helping the business make money. But you are right about the struggling thing.
A little over a year ago, my current boss and the owner of the company were unemployed. So they decided to start up a company specializing in web development for indie artists and indie labels - help them produce a web presence basically.
They hired me and one other unemployed web developer. But the owner refused to take the time to apply for small business loans, finance the company properly, the list goes on - Essentially, over a year after the company got started, me and the other developer are making $150 / month if that. And the owner is not sure when he'll be able to give us more. Even when we first started business, I wasn't making anything a month.
So, my recommendation when starting up a software company of any sort- Make sure you always have enough money to at least pay your employees. Else moral and loyalty will go down the toilet.
If I heard the rumors correctly, Tarantino was going for that old Kung-fu bootleg look with Kill Bill. I just got Swordsmen II the other day, and comparing the visuals of the two, I think Tarantino got the effect down pretty well. He definitely wasn't going for fancy, but really, are kung-fu movies supposed to be fancy?
The question you have to ask yourself is: Do other Linux distro's support your camera?

Xandros version 2
·
· Score: 2, Informative
Quoted directly from Xandros.com:
A 30-day trial version of the Standard Edition of Xandros Desktop 2 will be available for download at www.xandros.com. The retail Standard and Deluxe editions will also be available for download.
Since the beta-period is over, I can say that I was a beta tester for Xandros 2.0, so I've had some first-hand experience with 2.0 already.
Is it usable? Very much so. I can't think of very many distro's, including Debian itself, that allow me to plug in a USB stick and instantly get a file manager window ala Windows XP.
In terms of fixing broken parts, if you can work your way around Debian, Xandros is very similar to the guts of Debian. You can use apt-get if you want to repair or upgrade the OS's packages or you can use Xandros Networks which is a front-end to apt-get but without all the geeky command-line extras. Pretty much everything is still in the same place. They still use the standard *NIX file system keeping the config files in/etc, keeping the binaries in/bin or/usr/bin. So all the geek stuff is still there. Xandros just puts a nice streamlined GUI on top of it all.
But thats enough geeking. Xandros is really for those who want to switch from Windows to an alternative OS. I've showed friends Xandros 2.0 Beta and they were pretty amazed. These are people who are e-mail checkers and Yahoo! fans. They all asked me to help get them a copy of Xandros 2.0. It's GUI is easy to follow, everything in the menu is in an organized easy to find place (cept some geeky tools), and their Xandros File Manager is brilliant.
Oh yea, and the installer is not like Debian. If I recall correctly, Debian has a text-based installer that is for geek-eyes only, right? Xandros gives the user a fully-graphical installer that requires them to click the mouse about four times, five tops, wait 10-15minutes, and they've got a fully working Debian-based distro running on their computer. No bells, no whistles. It just works - the installer that is.
So really, was it Xandros Inc's aim to please Linux users or to please Windows-converters and businesses looking to cut costs? As a Linux user, I am pleased at the simplicity of the GUI and the programs. I personally don't care about the latest or greatest - I'm similar to other computer users - I just want it to work. And Xandros 2.0 just works.
Yes, and VS.NET ain't half bad. I just don't have the $200 or whatever it costs to get a copy for home. So I have to do my work using OSS tools. But yea, it does have a nice debugger
As a matter of fact, I actually do that. I am taking C/C++ at college right now. The school has Visual Studio.NET on all of the workstations right now. But when I go home to do the work, I jump right into an Xterm and use vi and g++
Well, I can understand getting older hardware for those games and the thing is, the friend with Win98 is running it all on a Pentium II 233 with 160MB of RAM and the games crash more often than when I play them on my Athlon XP box. He's also tried just running the machine in DOS-mode with little success.
Also, thank you to all who replied to above. I downloaded the Doomsday Engine and ZDoom and will try them out soon.

To add another point, this could possibly be Spirited Away vs. Disney all over again.

Also, Moulin Rouge is one of the few movies where Ewan McGregor's amazing singing voice comes out. Man, can he sing!

Will there be support for my orbiting brain lasers in the 2.7 series?

Speaking of gamers being crazy lunatics ...
Here is a good example ...
Could be fun. I remember downloading it. If you have a keyboard and the modem/boardband adapter you can really have fun with it.
Alas I have neither. But it was fun to watch Linux boot on the DC.
Oh, and I've told that Virtua Tennis for DC was a good game to have.
Ummm ... no check from the publisher?
