I can't say I haven't used any of them except ntalk, but that's what I would have done first to find some choices. All of them appear to work fine for what you want to do... just make sure to get one that's java or has source code so you can build on OSX.
Many a tune from those games were composed by the amazing Dave Wise. If you look hard on ebay, you can find the promotional DKC soundtrack Nintendo put out some time ago. Otherwise, you have to do with rips from the game, or remixes.
DKC is what got me into liking trance/jungle. It was that good.
there really aren't that many sites out there trying to sell you the product, but there are TONS of sites out there who are looking to cash in on some ebay and amazon referral cash, which spam search results with hundreds upon thousands of domains who only serve as thin proxy to the shopping sites. But google can't "tell" these are referral sites vs. a real online store since they're self contained and the magic goes on behind the scenes.
Google is trying undercut some of this business with "froogle". I hope it starts to erode the referral market, because then your search results will become much more informative.
Imagine the sorts of microscopic tools you could create with that kind of technology. You could make probes and scalpels so small and precise you could do surgery on a cellular level.
If you want to pirate something or share it with friends, do it on your own dime. Presumably you _want_ your friends to share in whatever cool thing you've discovered, so you'd put out a little to get it in their hands. In the case of P2P, I don't feel bad, it's my bandwidth I'm paying for that people use to download what I choose to let them download. I aim to shed light on the esoteric and underexposed.
Not act as a gatekeeper profiting off someone else's hard work. That's just sleazy.
There is only one "format" for HDTV, which is ATSC. Namely, MPEG-2 video + Dolby Digital audio. The only differences between the 18 "formats" are dimensions, interlace modes, and frame rates.
I really see no problem with that, you just specify the maximum format a TV will support, and you can assume it can handle all lower-bandwidth formats as well. The decoding chips don't care about the resolution or field rate, it's all the same to them as long as they're fast enough.
If you disable java and plugins, both MSIE and Mozilla seem to work fine for days on end without issue. This is on two different types of machine with a modest amount of RAM (256MB).
As soon as you let java or flash run, and open up a few links to some PDF files, everything tends to go to shit.
I don't really blame MSIE or Mozilla for this, but the API the plugin and the browser use to communicate, and maybe the plug-in writers themselves.
I should be able to hit the "stop" button in my browser and have the plugin receive an event that makes it stop what it's doing and release resources. It's just common sense.
At the time when I first found out about it, it was either a IE5.0 work-alike, or Netscape 4. I used MSIE 5.0 until I got Moz 1.0 to work on the Solaris box. IE5.0 was about 10 times faster and crashed less than the Solaris-bundled Netscape (imagine that!).
AMD makes a lot of differnet types of semiconductors. Not as diverse as Ti, but they're not trying to compete with Intel across all markets or anything.
All the hella-cool iRiver manufactured stuff from the last year or so now has Ogg Vorbis support, as does Rio Karma (and some other Rio thingie), and the Archos, and the Audio Keg, and some other things I can't remember right now.
What I really mean is that all the cool new portables are completely firmware upgradable, which means you'll see the support for formats and technologies as they become applicable (Ogg included). Even if it's not right away. If you bought a product with an all-in-one MP3 decoding chip onboard, well, tough luck.
Now everything is ARM or Dragonball based with real-time OSs.
The point is that this is the format chosen for the computer "session" of a DVD audio disc. Which means that the software will have to take care of it (and iTunes will probably be the first to have it working, I'm sure)
it's just as easy to bolt DRM onto Ogg's container format as it was for AAC. In fact, there was an article on Slashdot not too long ago about a company who is selling a toolkit that implements exactly that.
Each stakeholder has patented a method or slight spin on the basic technique, and so certain claims in each patent could possibly be applied to your arithmetic coder if they wanted to go after you.
You may need to wait 5-10 years before bundling an implementation in a package with high-visibility that isn't designed for educational or experimental use.

No. So I think this 'disgust' has been attributed to him by this nameless third party who would like us to believe that, for whatever reason.
and they are investigating.
They are a co-lo facility, barebones, FYI.
I just couldn't think of another application off the top of my head that would yield some high quality karma whoring.
Sigh.

My opinion has always been thus:
If you want to pirate something or share it with friends, do it on your own dime. Presumably you _want_ your friends to share in whatever cool thing you've discovered, so you'd put out a little to get it in their hands. In the case of P2P, I don't feel bad, it's my bandwidth I'm paying for that people use to download what I choose to let them download. I aim to shed light on the esoteric and underexposed.

So HDTV is not a good example.
Computer Systems Lab, Mr. Latimer FUCKING UP YOUR SHIT. Can I get an amen?

...and the reply was planted to make people take the "advice", which you correctly pointed out as equally stupid.

I should have previewed first, link fixed:
I'm surprised no one has posted the obvious yet!
The scientists are just WASTING their time. Apparently mice do grow human breat tissue. And lots of it!

This is an example of a newer 802.11b card that uses the AMD AM1772 chipset.

so true ::wipes tears::
That's exactly what I was thinking, only I was too busy feeling sorry for the guy.

Now all you have to do is return the favor

THAT'S what I consider too little too late.
God, the mods around here go off at the flip of a switch, without checking context.
