I have about 14000 of them (No, that's not a typo!). All of them ripped by myself. People download them like crazy, so I know there are a lot of OGGers out there..;)
What's the reason to run Solaris on x86 instead of Linux or Free/Open/Net BSD? From what I've heard it's slower and has much less support for hardware, besides the fact that it's so conservative that I often bang my head on the desk and install GNU stuff on all Solarisboxes we have at work..
The only reason I can think of is to learn it so one can put "Solaris" on the "list of things I know" when looking for a new job...
We don't want WMA to be spread more than necessary.. Simple as that! This is good because it lets us listen to legacy files until everyone has switched to encoding only non-patented Vorbis files..
Those licenses are for companies that just take and take and never gives back.. I think the LGPL is perfect for this kind of stuff! If you want to use it, go ahead, but give back your improvements! If you don't want to do that, go ahead and reimplement it yourself, just like you would have to do if the ffmpeg people hadn't implemented it at all... Or maybe you can PAY the ffmpeg people for a license to include it without giving back code, just like you would have to do if it was reimplemented by some closed source company... The weird thing is that I don't think you would complain about it then.,..
Sorry.. Last time I looked at wx it only was a GUI kit.. I admit that that was over 2 year ago though.. It might have changed since then.. If it's true, that's great!
Anyway, my point was that he should design it crossplatform from the start instead of Windows-only and then try to make it run in an "emulator" (yes, "reimplementation of the win32 api", i know) afterwards..
I have a better suggestion! Use Qt instead! That way you can compile your software with little or no changes for Windows, MacOS-X and Linux/Unix, and get the native look and feel on all platforms..
There are alternative crossplatform GUI-kits such as wxWindows, GTK2, FLTK and more, but they are only GUI-kits. Qt is a complete development plattform with crossplattform support for databases, networking, components, regexps, OpenGL, localization and much more, besides just the look and feel...
No, it's because you said "yes" when it asked if it should replace it, or you used some --always-say-yes flag or "yes | apt-get upgrade" or something like that...
Hey, I'm just one of their newest developers.. I don't even have CVS write access yet!;) Most credits should go to Krister and the others for making the program in the first place.. I'm developing a videofilter for MPlayer so we can show nice transparent menus on top of the videoscreen, and support for teletext, based on Zapping's libzvbi... That also involves patches to Pygame..
2005-03-28: Debian 3.1 is released! It includes the advanced Linux 2.4.8-kernel, KDE 2.2.1 and four year old versions of another 20000 or so packages. Get it here!
Yes, I would play it. And yes, I would be disgusted, just as i can get disgusted by virtually blowing peoples heads off in other games.. The thing is that I actually LIKE getting disgusted!;) I like filth! I like virtual violence! The nastier and filthier the better! There are no limits in the virtual world!
In IRL though, I have never been in a fight since I was about 6 or 8 years old. Not once! And I've been out partying on average maybe 3 times a week since I was 15, and I'm 25 now.. I've been into the punkscene, gothscene, industrial scene and metal scene.. My hair is a black mohawk. I often wear makeup, plastic clothes and sometimes even highheel boots.. I almost always hang out with goths, industrials, punks, hippies, transvestites and other non-mainstream "genres" of people.. I also often go to BDSM- and fetish-clubs.. I know that many people just reading this post are thinking "I want to beat this sick fuck up", but still, I haven't been in a fight NOT EVEN ONCE for the last 17 years or something.. Surely it happens all the time that people want to fight with me, and it's always the "suit people" who do, but I can always just ignore them and walk away or talk myself out of it and calm them down...
What I wanted to say was, although a bit too verbose, that I'm kind of the opposite of violent. Still I love watching filthy gore-movies and play ultraviolent computergames. Not ANYONE should tell me what I can do and not do, as long as I don't step on others toes (if they don't want to be stepped on, that is *G*)... If you don't agree with that, you're just being narrowminded, or a control-freak. Or both.
I guess this could be done using MPlayer and LAME.. Mplayer supports mms:// urls and about all codecs there is.. The proprietary extensions to rtsp:// (streaming realaudio/video) is also about to be supported.. It also supports writing audio to raw pcm or wav, which can be encoded to mp3 using LAME.

Black text on dark-dark-blue background. This must be great stuff!

This is a serious question!

Anyway, Freevo will be all you ever needed!
We're working on it! And it will be good! Just wait a few months until our upcoming features is in place! Development is going very fast right now!
Yeah right..

That's called being a fucking pussy.
Then I'm a "fucking pussy" then. I simply see no reason to fight for such stupid reasons.

Like "socks"? ;)
Why the hell is slashdot putting up ads for Microsoft Visual Studio.net?!!
It was (mostly) a joke, get over it.. :)
The brain uses an intelligent lossy compression scheme.
and our culture is mostly tolerant on issues.

Yes, I've seen that on Ricky Lake and Jenny Jones.

What makes Microsoft an offspring company?
Because their business-model is "give it to me baby!"
Reducing its usable capacity to zero means you have stolen all of its capacity, no?
No, because he can't use it himself.
He has destroyed all of its capacity, not stolen it.
