SUR X3 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Maybe, but then looking at the word "boner", and right under it the word "splinters" sure stopped whatever it was from happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lord_casek Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 That was so nerdy its not funny *wanga's post nah, man. that was a sneak peek (no pun) into the inner workings. it's good to know that 12oz is getting its shit together...now if raven would stop posting on other forums using a particular name.....while giving out security holes.... heh. actually, he stopped, but it was still wrong of him. which leads me to another question for raven: has 12oz ever been hacked (that you're aware of)?

lord_casek Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 it appears that those tweaks have done the board alot of good. i notice a speed increase, no more errors when posting, correct timings, and the threads are starting to bump to the top correctly. good stuff. now if we could only get some 12oz radio going. i might set up a shoutcast server if i can find a proggy that mac users can use to listen. have i still got permission to set that up raven? p.s.: eugene deserves a beer or eight from the admin and a pat on the back for a job well done.

the man the myth the GOON Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 so... i just got a computer. i'm not illiterate, per se, but i'm not particularly knowledgable on them either. (its technically """"borrowed"""" and i don't know shit about what it has, so those questions will not be answered as i don't know...) my question: when i copy music from cds using windows media player the songs don't copy well, even if the disc is perfectly clean, when they play its as if they were skipping or buffering. its not my speakers because they play streaming songs just fine. and the "skipping" happens at the same time/same fashion on each song. so i assume its my drive--i'm getting a http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827151133 soon... finally to the question: is the drive i have hopeless for this type of action and/or should i just wait til i have that new drive to worry about it?

wanga Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 I've managed / ran many streaming radio stations, if i can find a proggy that mac users can use to listen.iTunes or VLC on the mac will play just fine. If allen wants to go ahead and do the radio i'll be more than happy to help him set it up, furthermore to keep it legit I can help acquire the proper licensing.

Mainter Posted September 30, 2006 Author Share Posted September 30, 2006 Quick 'N Easy IDE to USB Converter This is a great way to quickly add some extra storage either internally or externally to your system. It's also an excellent little tool for IT or tech support folks who need to backup internal hard disks a lot while they're fixing PCs. The gadget is made by a company called Vantec, which has named it (appropriately) the IDE-USB Adapter. Thing supports all standard IDE disk interfaces on one side and handles eitehr USB 1.1 or 2.0 on the other. A great little tool, especially at only about $25 on the street.

Mainter Posted September 30, 2006 Author Share Posted September 30, 2006 Computerworld has an article examining Microsoft's plans to launch a competitor to the Apple iPod, the wireless media player called Zune. The article lists five reasons why Apple may fear the Zune, and why it won't be as easily smacked down as the dozens of mp3 players before it have been. The Zune isn't just a music player, the article argues. Think of it as a portable, wireless, hardware version of MySpace. With the Zune, Microsoft is trying to launch a consumer media 'perfect storm.'" From the article: "Microsoft will make the movement of media between Windows, Soapbox and the Zune natural and seamless. The Zune interface is just like a miniature version of the Windows Media Center user interface and is very similar to some elements of Vista. Apple fans are overconfident in the iPod because Apple once commanded 92% of music player market share, a number that has since fallen to around 70%. About 30 million people own iPods. But Microsoft owns more than 90% of the worldwide operating systems market (compared with Apple's roughly 5%), representing some 300 million people. The company expects to have 200 million Vista users within two years." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lord_casek Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 the zune looks neat, but i won't buy it out of fear of bsod. in fact, i think the mp3 players that i've always stuck to are good enough for me. that is the cd based mp3 players. inexpensive, change your music on the fly. who couldask for anything more (toyota!)
