the alter ego of fred flintstone, he arives at hard times as a helmed ufo to give him advice.
thanks for the responds, thing is my old comp had four screws around the cpu that would release the fan so I could clean it easily.
my new comp has four bars around the cpu with outturning arrows.
As I turned them to release the fan, I possibly(?!) may have lifted the cpu chip.
This seemed so obviously I could tear my hair out.
(and that are quiet a lot)
The fan seemed to be clipped on the cooling device AND the cpu.
Of course I had my comp out of energy for a day with cables off.

Dark Sounds

I somehow ended up reading about doom/drone metal on wikipedia and listening to a few examples on youtube (damn, the internet is awesome) and it reminded me of the ambient music that was made for the PSX version of Doom. I used to map to this sometimes when I wanted to be completely absorbed in what I was doing as well as a dark atmosphere.
You can (probably illegally...) get it here: http://gh.ffshrine.org/soundtracks/1767

Reviews Site
#16378 posted by Nynort on 2009/03/08 19:34:46
well, it's been about 6 weeks since I sent UWF the reviews, and he seems pretty dead to the world. Maybe it would just be better to start another site. Again, if someone does the design/html stuff, I'll do the content - starting with the crapload of reviews that are already done.
I Thought About It And I'D Love To .....uhm...... Swallow You

How come you don't use your very own sexy website btw? If you want, I'd teach you how! :)
If I had the time and energy I'd totally make you a site, but if there is something I don't want to do at the moment then it's my ugly kind of webdesign. So all I could offer (hell, I'd love to feature your reviews at my little sweetheart site ;) ) is creating a category for such reviews at Quaddicted.
Quick hack how it could look like (not clickable on purpose):
http://www.quadd icted.com/tronyn-reviews-digs 04zip-the-parallel-worlds/
I'd add a link to the reviews in the navigation and figure out how to do an index. The text is somewhat hard to read, I really got to improve that on the site anyways...

Quick Question.
#16381 posted by Shambler on 2009/03/08 22:28:22
A friend has got a DVD with some AVI film clips ripped from another DVD. They work on the other friend who gave him them 's computer, but not on my friends. Specifically, the sound does not work in VLC player, and conversely the sound works but the video doesn't show in Windows Media Player.
Any simple advice (have suggested Quicktime, other than that I'm stumped).
Ta,

Damn Shambler, you are pulling penis from the past. Check the file with GSpot (no joke) http://www.headbands.com/gspot/
Alternatively, TEH video playback gem on Windows is:

I might have forgotten something and I don't remember if setup was a no-brainer, I think it was.
Heh

Yeah you know what I didn't really think of it, but I could just post the reviews on my site. I guess there's no real reason not to - a dedicated review site isn't necessary to just have reviews, and as for the polls/articles/extra stuff that UWF's site had, you are pretty much already doing all of that at Quaddicted anyway.
Alright, sorry to make everyone wait even longer but this week my time is shot to hell. I'll do it this weekend.

K, will check those. Anything simpler I can get my friend to do (he's rarely on the web AFAIK).
Windows Video Codecs
#16386 posted by grahf on 2009/03/10 03:23:41
There is a codec pack called CCCP, should be standard windows fare to install, and then it comes with a simple lightweight media player.
But as Spirit implied... AVI is just a container format which could have any number of different audio/video formats in it.

Has Japan Become A Lot More Expensive For Everyone?
#16392 posted by bear on 2009/03/11 13:45:11
Or is it just for us with a small currency that speculators don't like to seek comfort in when they've made a mess out of the economy?

#16393 posted by nitin on 2009/03/11 14:04:53
not just you. Been looking at the latest published travel guide which has prices listed as $AU 1 = 100 yen, which is almost half price compared to the actual exchange rate atm.
Japan
#16394 posted by bal on 2009/03/11 19:57:23
Yeah it's become more expensive, probably only temporary hopefully.
Nitin, I could spend hours recommending places to go, but I'll just suggest a few quickies:
If you go to Kyoto, don't miss the Fushimi Inari shrine, it's a bit to the south, but definitely worth taking a quick train/bus ride to visit it. (Second best temple in Kyoto being Kiyomizu).
Try spending a night on Miyajima island if you can, during the day you can climb up the island by cable car, see wild monkeys at the top of the mountain, and then get lost walking back down (good hike). It's one of my best memories from my last trip. Staying the night is nice, you can walk around the small village when it gets dark, great atmosphere.
In Tokyo, if you're going with a lady-friend, spending an afternoon+evening in Odaiba is nice, sunset on tokyo can be really great, romantic.
In Osaka, spending an evening in Dotonburi is great (popular street with lots of lights and restaurants).
Don't forget to eat lots of good food!
I could keep going for a while... =)
