    Yeah, I just downloaded "Gasshou Kumikyoku Sailormoon" OGGs off Sailormusic.net...the CD's been out of print for some time and only Son May Records (which is considered a bootlegger outside of its native Taiwan, which does not hold to the Berne Convention) offers it anymore. *sigh*

    Now to burn them to a CD...

  5. Re:Modern ones for adults on The Disappearance of Saturday Morning · · Score: 1


    Thank Ghod Cartoon Network has figured out there is such a big audience for Cartoons among adults, although I wish they would put more effort into making cartoons like Rocko that have jokes that are clearly engineered to be equally funny to small children and adults, but for different reasons. I have infinite respect for scriptwriters and animators who can pull that off well.

    Not likely as MTV/Viacom owns Nickelodeon and AOL Time Warner owns Cartoon Network.

  6. Re:What about classic cartoons? on The Disappearance of Saturday Morning · · Score: 1

    Power Rangers was based on a similar series released in Japan by Toei (of Sailor Moon fame).

    It was never animé, and AFAIK, neither was the original, but there is a grain of truth in the comment.

  9. Re:Just plain wrong on The Disappearance of Saturday Morning · · Score: 1

    Well, Robotech would have been a better show because it was Japanese in origin (I think they cut up three different series and pasted them together, dubbed it and called it Robotech. IMBW). Animé is of much superior quality to the American pablum with some exceptions (Pocket Monsters, better known as Pokémon, is very American despite the heavy Nipponalities evident in the customs of the various locales in the show. And I have actually seen a little bit - 3 episodes - of the show in its original form.)

    -uso.

    We ought to borrow the Japanese word "jiyuu". (The full phrase is "jiyuu na sofuto")

    Personally, the problem is the word choice. Free to most people means "o-kane" ($$$) free, not "jiyuu" free. But "open source" isn't that good either as people pun on it. (Sometimes open source software does look/feel like it's full of open sores.)

    I call it free/open software.

  21. Re:Two points of significance for crashes. on HTML Rendering Crashes IE · · Score: 1

    You seem to forget, and this is an inherent problem with the name, that IE is *not* "jiyuu" free.

    Netscape/Mozilla *is*.

    I always say "free/open" or "jiyuu-free" to refer to the software I write, because that removes ambiguity. (jiyuu is Japanese for "freedom"; the equivalent of RMS's pet phrase is "jiyuu na sofuto", IIRC)
