Replaygain does kick ass, and more people should use it, but as others have mentioned, this isn't what he wants.
Replay Gain is designed to level all the tracks from a CD (and infact many different CDs if you do it to all of them) so that they all have a mean volume of about the same, but it works on the track level, not a 5-second floating window level.

Think of it like a prison line up - feet.inches
It's probably as good an analogy as anyone else in this thread thinks up:P
The game you are looking for is "Ultimate Brain Games" which comes out in June sometime (according to gamefaqs.
The DS version includes Go (or Baduk), unlike the GBA one.
Dating back to Starcraft, I was always under the impression that pwn was a contraction for "power own" - that is, to go so far above and beyond the minimum amount of ownage necessary.
Why don't you stick with mentor, and from their download page on the right column download the version for the PC EPOC emulator - I presume this will run on windows and then you're set.
I call bull. In the later patches, blizzard introduced an "Insane" AI level, which was the same as the hardest setting except that it started with 500 gas and 500 minerals, and received batches of cash on a timer (you can tell by making a custom map that has a "Cash" leaderboard set up, and play it against insane AI)
If they already had an AI that was "way too good for [a] human to beat" then why didn't they just put that in instead? All their AI was script-based so it shouldn't have been that hard...
that goes in a small pot (ie on the desk, or on the monitor), try a Venus Fly-Trap:) Bring a bit of gristle or something every once in a while from home for it and it should stay pretty happy.
No idea what the lighting/watering requirements are, though it should be easy enough to find out.
And really, it can be done right now with pretty much anything.
Just run the code through the tokenizing phase of the compiler, and output it as XML. Teach the editors to work backwards that one step for display, and run forwards when saving, and you're done.
Fingerprint torrent files to prevent them from being used by other IP addresses.*
Actually you don't even need to go that far. I know of a few sites that required you to be logged in to their site before their tracker would start sending you a peer list. (by tying your account name and source IP on their end, and having their tracker lookup by ip) Something like that would do just fine for this.
While the animal gnu (also called the wildabeast) is pronounced with a silent G, as is the mythical creature gnome, when you start getting into acronyms (that's what all those capital letters mean) then you're allowed some leeway.
Additionally, he should have someone proof-read the essay before he posts it to the world. I gave up half way through point 1 after getting fet up with all the comma splices, missing words, redundant words... Just... ugh...
1) Try CTRL+N. You know, just like every other windows app out there.
2) I'll give you that one. Live with it. Turn off the bookmarks toolbar, rename the folder, and just pretend it's a normal subfolder of root. If you don't have enough bookmarks to require some sort of organization, I call this a moot point.
3) True. Also unfortunate. I've learned to cope - I know of a grand total of 2 websites I need to use IE on. And one of them is just for a bit of extra functionality, the brunt of it works fine in Firefox.
4) Odd... Can you cange the buttons to launch a program instead of a website? If so just have them launch Firefox with the website as an argument.
I don't think that's necessarily a worry unless people are using a cvs version of the package.
If (for example) zlib needed updating, you would need to get a new version of the entire package, for every package that used zlib. Or at least a diff between packages. Much more inefficient, but at least this way you're guaranteed the package got tested with the new zlib.

I was actually thinking about this yesterday:P
About the only other thing I can think of that they should do is track who buys what and use that to give Amazon-style recommendations. Which could drive interest into some of the more obscure titles.
Worst case scenario, even if they don't DRM it and the "real" roms start getting copied around all over, is that they'd make a bit of profit off of something they currently get 0 profit from.
Ahh, that explains it. I have it set to no autoplay. I'll need to try that when I get home then:P
However, if I want to do anything with menus, like the misc featurettes from the LOTR "appendices" discs, I do need to boot to xboxdash - though IIRC they were doing a fund drive a few weeks back to see how much people *really* wanted full dvd support, and if it was enough to pay a developer to take some time to do full-time work implementing it for XBMC (and thusly, also mplayer)
Bah, given that they are independant, and each has a 232/233 chance of missing earth, that gives a (232/233)^233 or 36.7% chance of all of them missing.
XBox Media Center installed on a modded xbox really is all you need. Plug it into your hub/router/whatever, and with a little bit of config you can get it to run directly off of a samba share from your desktop.
Get the DVD package, and you have remote control access. The thing also plays DVDs (I haven't got XBMC doing DVDs yet, but running the xbox dash to watch it isn't bad) so that's most of your video bases covered.

Best I've found thus far (under windows) to manage a medium-large sized collection and allow quick "normailization" for additions is Foobar2000
It might take a bit to figure out how to customize it, but you should give it a try - I bet it'll grow on you :)

The real question is can this be used to stream *to* the Airport Express from any arbitrary program?
But see? There's the game connection. 3 kills in rapid succession that bring your kill streak to 10 in UT will tell you exactly "God-like" "Rampage" :P

You've got two options:
.blue {
color: blue;
}
and have it apply to anything with a class="blue", or
a.blue, span.blue, div#back {
color: blue;
}
to explicitly declare them. The commas being key in this one.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it, right?

Ok, fet->fed is a valid typo, but what's wrong with half way as two words? I'm using it in the context of going half [of the] way through something.
Actually, I think he just submitted his article with line breaks, not html, and it came out looking something like this:
...explain why:
- P2P is unstoppable
- P2P is positive for Companies
- P2P is positive for the market
- P2P is good for users
and it just got all bunched up because our editors aren't editing, just modifying.
