Mainstream rap today is pretty pointless already. I mean, you could only make so many different variations of the dance club, jewelery and spinny rims. Even people who are portrayed to be above the norm (ie. Kanye) still have to rap about materialistic things. He's the self proclaimed "Louis Vuitton Don" :rolleyes: . It doesn't get any more ridiculous than that in my humble opinion.
The only rap that I personally listen to today is, as someone stated above, Eric B. and Rakim. The old stuff is where it's at but even that's wearing out on me.

How come it only goes at 200kb/s second then? Are there any settings I have to change?
I checked the bandwith in the program, but even at 10000 kb/s it doesn't change

I'd like to read that if anyone can find it.
Ya some guys brought a big party tent and had two projectors in it. One had XBOX 360 and the other Sportscenter. They also brought a barbecue and made everyone pork and bacon and other stuff. They were awesome.
I'm guessing you didn't get an iPad that day, correct?
I did get one! I was one of the last people. Maybe 50 people behind me by the time I got up there.
I got the Black 32GB Wifi. They ran out of about half the models by the time I got there. This model was my seconds choice, but it's an upgrade from the 16GB Black Wifi model that I was planning to get :D

Hmmm... now that you mentioned it, I don't think it has any jumper pins in it. I pulled it from an old Tivo box. What jumper does it need to have if I already have my main drive on SCSI?

I'm running the exact same WU on my G3 (now with a Sonnet G4-500 CPU installed) and I'm at 2.5% with 12 days left. Friday it said 1.8% with 22 days left. Go figure. I just let it do it's thing and wait for the next one.
I have Increase v2.0 running and I know in the preferences you can limit the size of the work units you allow your CPU to download. I chose "no preference" as opposed to "standard" and "no deadlines". As a result I get these 200+ point Gromaks and Tinkers but also get a few 35-60 point 2 day wonders.
I have been folding since April of 2003 on my "G4" and a few weeks ago added 2 machines at work a G4-800 and our new DELL we use for PC based work (I'm a Graphics professional). I have now seen my "Status" on the team 3446 list go up to #259 right now and rising. I can't wait to ad the other new DELL we just got and I'm waiting arrival of a new G5 Dual :rolleyes:

Just when i thought i was set on the Macbook Air, i checked out a review about the new Macbook Pro 13" and i realised how many bells and whistles, aswell as improvements, i can get, for possibly cheaper.
I'd be using my new mac for the usual, iTunes, Chrome, Safari, Word Processing, but most importantly, or the decisive fact, Photoshop and Illustrator CS5. Now from checking out mroogle, and Macrumors threads, i came to the conclusion that the MBA would be just about adequate for my needs. But then i realised how much more comfortable, and just for peace of mind, id be with a Macbook Pro. i think i went into buying an 11" ultimate for the wrong purposes.
My two options would be:
Macbook Air 11" Ultimate-
1.6GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM
128GB Flash Storage
which comes to a grand total of 10648HKD/8,965.10 CNY/1,368.99 USD
OR
Macbook Pro base 13"-
2.3GHz Dual-core Intel Core i5
8GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM � 2x4GB
320GB Serial ATA Drive @ 5400 rpm
SuperDrive 8x (DVD�R DL/DVD�RW/CD-RW)
which would come to a grand total of 10648HKD/8,965.10 CNY/1,368.99 USD
so for the same price i get double the RAM, some ridiculous amount of better processing power, which if im correct, is necessary for photoshop, aswell as is the RAM. I also get just under 3 times the storage capacity, which also adds to the peace of mind, plus i get a bigger screen size to work with.
Aswell as an SD card, thunderbolt, and disc drive.
What im losing is the SSD and thinness of the macbook air. The thinness isnt all that important, because i find the MBP to still be rather portable, and the SSD, whilst it is lightning fast and everything, it doesnt quite compensate for the processor difference.
i think im pretty much set on the MBP, and i know that i should buy aftermarket RAM, its just i dont know where to buy the screwdrivers, so if anybody could give me heads up to either a link for the screw drivers, and possibly RAM? that would be great!
Also, any recommended sleeves/ bags? i dont want to put a case, for i find them ugly, but a sleeve would be nice.
So do you guys think i should go MBP or MBA?
Am i missing anything?
If anybody wants to share their experiences between picking between the MBA or MBP feel free to share. I want to see what others think.
all the best,

Why wanna wait for a 300$ iTV half a year when you can have a 24" iMac now?!?!?!?!? And I'm laughing: WIRELESS... but Ethernet Port etc. p.p.... very helpful! No thanks guys, I'm gonna buy the Cinema-iMac!!!
:cool:
News-flash: iMac is NOT a replacement or an alternative to the iTV. If you think that it is, you are just fooling yourself.

Maybe you don't know so much about color management.
Ever heard about 8-bit bottleneck?
DVI could use 16-bit colordepth (lsb on second link), but nobody uses that and there's not enough bandwidth with 2500x1600 resolution.
Displayport (or hdmi1.3) solves that problem without having expensive hardware LUTs in monitors (that ACDs currently does not have).
Oh really? Care to enlighten me then grand wizard. You show me sources that broadcast in the deep color realm (30,36,48-bit color depths), and THEN you show me the displays that support that color depth. Why do you think there is such a big argument amongst displays/component manufacturers on the merits of HDMI 1.3. If Anthem, the maker of my $6500 Statement D2 video processor, didn't feel it was necessary to add 1.3 support, then I think that's a pretty good indication of the progress of deep color support. HDMI is the same exact thing in terms of video transport as DVI - smaller connector, with a different pin mapping.
http://www.anthemav.com/NewSitev2.0/AnthemProduct/AVM30_40_50/Literature/Downloads/HDMI_Questions_PDS.pdf
8-bit(24bit) is plenty, for a long time.
...and besides, this discussion was about DisplayPort and it's usefulness, when we already have HDMI. Maybe you don't know so much about topic discussion.

Primary Application: Quicktime Player 7, the Finder.
Background: I work for a Visual Effects Studio.
Goal of script: Part of one of our employees jobs is to process "offlines" (basically a bunch of different low quality scene shots organized together as a reference for work that needs to be done) for tv shows that we get and export certain scenes in this offline (the ones we've been payed to work on) as Image Sequences (scene cut into individual frames) so the vfx artist may have a reference.
And with that exporting comes a procedure of creating a specific folder for the offline image sequence and creating the image sequence with the proper parameters (JPEG sequence + Highest quality available)
I wanted to simplify that process with a script.
Example.
Show A sends us a 5:00minute mp4 offline. Shot 01x01 found at 00:10 thru 00:20 in the mp4 needs to be converted into a jpeg image sequance.
the steps that would normally be followed would be
0) Open offline (mp4)
1) set your "i"(in-marker) at 00:10 and your "o"(out-marker) at 00:20
2) Command+C = copy selection you have just made
3) Command +N = New Quicktime then Command + V = paste selection
4) File>Export (now name your shot "01x01-Offline_" (shots are watermarked with name) and create destination folder "01x01-Offline")
then select "Movie to image sequence" from drop down menu, then select "options" and change to JPEG from PNG then selection "Options" in this window and move slider to "best possible" for quality.
5)Click save and you are done.
I'd like to slim that down to.
1) Open Offline and manually set your desired "i" an"o"
2) Run Script
Script basic = I need this script to take the selection i've made and create an image sequence of it.
Script Details= All the shot folders have been automatically created, so the script needs to list the pre-made folder selections from the directory the Offline had been opened from.
This needs to Generate a selection prompt that the user may select the proper shot this is.
From here its easy. You just use the export command in the Apple Script Library with the correct paramaters
Currently I am stuck at finding the proper term for "Copy Selection" as selection is not apart of the dictionary.
Any help is appreciated!

Browsers are evil. More time can be spent "fixing" inconsistencies than actually designing the page. I normally use FireBug to step through page blocks and examine CSS. I've seen IE choke on something as simple as a missed semicolon.
A guess right off the top is that it might be something with the box model. IE tends to interpret things a little differently so check your margins and padding closely. If that fails you might want to start with a blank page and add in components until the page breaks.
By the way: It displays OK in IE8.

What? The iPhone 3G was not a "Complete Redesign". Internally, it used the same CPU, RMA and chipset as did the iPhone 1. The only difference was the addition of a 3G radio and a plastic curved back; hardly a "Complete Redesign"
Oh I completely agree. You put a 2G and a 3G side by side and you can barely tell them apart.

Hey.... someone put up a page titled "Arport Extreme" and I moved it to "Airport Extreme." Looks like it automatically redirects. So we could do the same thing with "The Dock" and "The Trash," no?
EDIT: Okay, fixed "Dock", "Trash", and all the pages linking to them.

How do you expect me to remember where I was Sept 11? It's not like the day JFK died or anything... oh wait it was... hmm... I must've been walking down Elliot Ave. in Seattle when it happened. I didn't find out what had happened until a 1/2 hour later when I got to class only to find out the school was shut down since it was right next to the WTC in Seattle.
