"Never underestimate a human being's ability to fuck up the simplest situation" is one of two axioms in my life. The other is, "If you're not cynical, you're not paying attention". I see examples of one, if not both, every day. Today's example (other than the usual disaster of driving in Maryland) was going to Taco Bell for a quick snack. The bill came to $3.16. I handed the girl at the drive-in window $4.01. She stood there for a moment, holding the money, then looked at me and asked, "Did you mean to give me this much money?" "Yes", I replied, already sensing that this was going to be a trial of epic proportions for the girl. She started to hand me back one of the dollars but then closed the window and walked off. Two minutes later, the manager came to the window and gave me my 85¢ change. I'm very well aware that many young people these days have trouble making change. I've learned not to give them the extra penny or two to round off the change after they've punched it into the cash register. But today's example of sheer stupidity astounds me. If you can't even punch in $4.01 to see what the proper change is for a $3.16 purchase, you don't belong working until you can at least pass a remedial math course. This is a shining example of why I'm now the cynic I am. I keep hoping something will change and we'll start becoming a productive society again but... I don't see it happening anytime soon.

The only way I would ever change one of my reviews because of a webmaster's being offended is if they could show me, unequivocally, how I was wrong. I do not see how expressing one's opinion of another's product or service can be wrong. While it's true that you can sue anybody for anything, I would think that you need a substantial and reasonable case to even make it to trial. Unless someone has gone over the top and falsely accused them of doing something illegal, or made some other out-and-out slanderous claim, the threat of a lawsuit is ridiculous. I've now seen two webmasters who have taken a combative stance in defense of their site. They've blamed their customers for site issues and dismissed their qualifications to rate their product. It really makes me wonder what they're thinking. Who else, other than their customers, would be in a position to say what they like and didn't like about their site? In the case of IFM, if the site is supposed to be the 'art' that Feck claims it to be, I really don't understand the reaction. All artists have their detractors. Criticism goes with the territory.

I wasn't contacted by email after a review, but I was asked to take my concerns out of the public eye (here on PU) and email the webmaster directly. Some of you long-timers might remember the heated exchange I had with that particularly hot-headed webmaster a few years back. It struck me as pretty funny that rearadmiral's original post immediately made me think of him. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

I'd tend to agree with Khan's take on this because, at least to me, the answer to the question is obvious. Anyone who's ever had a fuck buddy can tell you that sex can definitely exist without love. Is it better or worse without the commitment? I'd say yes and no. No-strings-attached-let's-just-get-each-other-off sex can be crazy fun. On the other hand, when you really care about your partner, there's an added depth to your encounters. Apples and oranges... Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | ||

I think InTheCrack has the best quality. Their 1920x1080 wmvs, at almost 8000 kbps, are as clear as anything I've downloaded - with the exception of some insane copy of Avatar I managed to find, at 20 some gigs of file size. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

There's nothing to apologize for... A couple of links from this site to check out - here and here. If you're new to video editing (and have the cash, because it ain't cheap ), I strongly recommend Tmpgenc's Video Mastering Works 5. It's the easiest, most intuitive editor I've used in the last 10+ years. As far as "basics" go, it would be good to familiarize yourself with things like the various video file types, codecs and bit rates. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

1. I keep myself mostly restricted to amateur material for just that reason - the believability. I couldn't narrow anything down to even a few scenes to give them a ranking. The impression I get from amateurs is that, for the most part, they're in for the fun, not (necessarily) the money. They aren't acting, they're just "doing what they do". 2. Many terabytes. Many, many terabytes. 3. Keeping in mind that I'm still talking amateurs, I'll just say that there are a lot of men and women who should never be naked in front of a camera or, for that matter, even an open window. 4. IFeelMyself and Yanks.com 5. There a number of sites I'd avoid based on their shady business practices. But, since I guess you mean based on the content on a site, I'd have the say the only site that really pissed me off was Max Hardcore. 6. Free, with Blu-ray quality videos and 50 megapixel pictures?

I had to go to a UK site to see it for certain, but I didn't think they'd done away with AGP cards altogether on your side of the big pond. Not too long ago, I upgraded the video on a co-worker's dinosaur of a computer - and very nicely cheap in this age of the PCI-E! I don't know what the specs are on your current machine, but I wouldn't rule out an upgrade just yet. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

I also have serious bandwidth concerns and it's one of the main reasons why I still keep Firefox as my main browser, even though it's not the speed demon it used to be. Firefox is now just about as bloated as Internet Exploder - but it does allow for the use of an add-on called NoScript. NoScript can be set to where you have to manually click to allow a streaming video to run. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

For anyone looking for a video editor that's relatively easy to use, I'll once again point you to Tmpgenc's Video Mastering Works 5. Yeah, it's $100 USD, but the interface is about as intuitive as any I've seen. It starts with drag and drop to open files, continues with large, well-marked buttons for just about every option and ends with high quality output. There's a free trial version available to see if you want to take the plunge. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity.

I'll definitely go along with that. Tmpgenc's Video Mastering Works 5 is my editor of choice. But, at almost three times the cost of Boilsoft's Splitter, I didn't think it warranted being mentioned here. (Which, obviously, I've now done anyway.) I only recommended VirtualDub because rearadmiral seemed to want to limit the cost involved and VDub will work on avi, divx and mpg files. As long as you set the color depth equal to or greater than the source file, it makes very clean cuts. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

When you get a negative reaction for looking, ask 'em straight up - "Why dress to show it, then get pissed off when we look?" After you get what is usually some half-assed reason, one of the following will probably fit her response: Paraphrased and borrowed from Dave Chapelle - "You might not be a whore, but you are wearing a whore's uniform." Something I've said since my teens - "When we stop looking, then you can be pissed off." Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

The thought just occurred to me to ask if there are any other SATA connectors on your board. On some boards there are RAID only ports and/or ports that are on separate controllers. In either case, it could be a driver issue. Again, assuming XP, try Start> Run. Type "devmgmt.msc" (no quotes). Hit Enter. Are there any yellow triangles showing anywhere?

Assuming Windows XP (can't help you if it's Vista or W7), the first step would be to go to computer management to see if it shows up there. Go to Start> Run and type in "compmgmt.msc" (without quotes). Hit Enter. In the left panel of the window that opens, click on Disk Management. After a few seconds or so, the right panel will show you all disks connected to your PC. If the drive you're looking for doesn't show up, or shows up as unformatted or missing, there are other troubleshooting steps to take - but let's start there.

Wiki is better than I am at explaining artifacts. A bit rate is the number of bits that are being processed in a specified unit of time. There's a good article with an analogy to explain it better on this site. Lowering the bit rate on a video is a form of lossy compression. If 1080p video stutters on your computer, it's probably because it isn't powerful enough to handle that much data. High definition video requires a lot of your computer's resources. Processor speed is the first thing you need to look at. A decent amount of RAM is good to have as well, but nowhere near the need for a strong CPU. Can't help you with the Jetsons predictions. As a kid, I was in love with Judy and didn't pay attention to much else on the show. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

I know it isn't on topic for the thread, but I have to say that that's the biggest reason I miss 2000 Pro. I think I had maybe 4 or 5 blue screens in over 10 years. Damn shame Microshaft can't come up with something that bulletproof again! Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

That made me think about my beloved Win2000 Pro. I never wanted to give it up! They no longer make motherboards with 2000 drivers but I tried to install it on my last build anyway. It didn't fly at all. I don't understand why you'd be against a dual-boot, though. I had a 2000/XP dual-boot on my last PC and the 2000 side definitely seemed a lot faster than the XP side. But I did get the advantages of both operating systems on one computer. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |
