And thus Korea will continue to lead the world at Counter Strike. In Korea if you can play online games well professionaly you are treated like a popstar!
With a network like this - that trend is going to continue.
"Take four red capsules, in ten minutes take two more. Help is on the way."
"Do not enter this area without consuming j23."
"Let us be thankful we have commerce. Buy more. Buy more now. Buy more and be happy."
"Please open the door, we only want to help you."

THX-1138 Its a seminal cyberpunk film and George Lucas's first film (started as a student project)
The ending... In the uncut version he's not rescued but has gone mad and halucinates the whole 'Happy Ending'
Its done so well... A real sledghammer between the eyes ending..
Loved it.
These kids are obviously unaware that the showing of the dead people, mangled or otherwise is quite normal on Arabic TV.
They have been trying to communicate the horror of what the West refers to as 'the palestinian problem' for many years now. One effective way of getting across how bad it actualy is, is to to show the actual bodies of actual dead people.
And so they have for many years now.
The West should be very wary. Western channels refer to the Iraqi War as "The Freeing Of Iraq" aka "Operation Iraqi Freedom". The Arabic channels (without execption) refer to this as "The War Against Iraq", "The Invasion Of Iraq" and "The Occupation of Iraq" etc.. all negative connotations.
I don't believe the Arabic world will react well to seeing "The Other Occupation" complete with footage identical to what we normaly see from the Gaza strip.
I think we are about to see the duel bewteen two different cultures ideas of real 'free' and 'open' media. And I don't think the west will be all to hapy with the result.
.NET is too heavy for the majority of currently deployed set-top boxes. Many of these boxes use low end RISC processors with 20Mhz of raw grunt!:) (I have been keeping a close eye on dotGNU and Mono for possible future use (/me waves to rhys) ) I have coded for the original GameBoy. Once you get down the the VM level on these boxes, a GameBoy has more power.. The Radon system is "COM like", but its not "COM compatible". We were trying to draw the similarity. We have pushed OpenTV's dynamic linker to the edge.. and then some:).
Of couse Microsoft plans to use IL for their next iTV platform.
In Australia it looks like MHP is on hold. All the free-to-air channels are already re-broadcast over the handful of PayTV operators which are OpenTV 'enabled' so it looks they will opt for OpenTV interactivity in the short term.
Configurable computing is the future. These little projects bring us one step closer to what I see as 'The Final Platform':)
FPGAs are starting to be put into into mainstream graphics cards after being the commercial high end graphics world for many years..... Next stop will be replacing the desktop CPU...
One day all machines will just be a big lump of FPGA's and a cooling system...:)
Now if someone will write a netlist that lets be play flash files in hardware and play mpegs and divxs, we will have the ultimate set-top box and gaming platform.. New streaming video format? Just upgrade the netlist and the format is supported in hardware. One minute a Pintendo64, the next a Playstation.

Given the current situation - I highly recommend it.

I saw that film.. and am now a lesser person.
We started a relationship that lasted 4 years.
