Why do I keep going to college, again?

Oh...yeah...to have a better future...I guess...

*sigh*

Does anyone know of any good screen capture progs out there, specifically for video? I have Snagit 7, but it's a piece of shit.

College isnt what it used to be. Our future is different from those before us.
Now you have to choose a degree ( and job ) thay cant be sent overseas, wont be phased out, and cant be replaced by automation.
Choose well.

lol thats why i made the decision to goto cooking school
scary how that is now
i just figure its like a game. i just beat tech support and its sequel tech support 2: office politics, now im getting the new game Cooking, Eat it or Die.

I thought of that since I enjoy cooking. But cooking is an 'artistic' job. Two examples: Unless you are one of the best, you arent making that much. A guy I went to highschool with is a chef. He went to school got his degree, but the best he worked for was an atlanta hotel ( he is currently working in a food court ). Another friend who I trained with has worked in 4 countries and can flash his resume and probably get a job. He can cook several different ethnic styles. Not trying to cast any shadows just giving you what I know and have seen.

I too have played the IT games. The first, Phone Support, started out good but the ending sucked with all the coruption at the boss levels. The second and third, Desktop Support and Server Admin, were fab but due to economic intrest didnt sell well and most were taken off the shelves. So now Im back to a sorry sequel, Phone Support 2: Phone Monkeys Return and Im fucking sick of it.

Im cutting my losses and heading north to go for radiology.

At this point and time, I'd rather work towards something stable, and since nothing can be as stable as the medical or social services careers, why not just dive into that shit all the way? Social Worker it is.

Besides, helping others help themselve is an overwhelming response to crisis than just the ideology of it. ^_^

Screen capturing of video files is a VERY complicated and dificult process.

[pixelspaniel]

No shit. It's like I have to go through each and every frame just to get the capture that I want! Nar!

Snagit 7 does a good job, but it doesn't even open most of my bigger files, and when I just want to capture the window, it doesn't do it.

By the way things are going, I'm just considering not to bother with capturing period. :(

You have the mpaa and marcovision to thank for your troubles. Sucks!

Oh. My. Fucking. God.

And the cool thing that I like about the dubs is that I'm actually familiar with the voice actors, yet they are total unknowns. DEFINITELY not a disappointment.

Im not exactly how to take "uncut and unedited" from Funimation. They said the same about DBZ.
And the PRICE! Fucking hell. $19.95 I could understand but god damn $25-30 for 4! episodes! They are still smoking crack. They did the same with DBZ.
I forget what company did RKenshin and i think you had a minimum of 4 episodes per disc. Look at the icon to see how I will have my copies.

Re: :O~~~~~~

[pixelspaniel]

I ain't buying it, but its good that they chose really good voiceactors for the lamers who would buy it (and those who actually like that dubbed crap).

And LOL, that's how I'm getting my copies, too! Fuck paying $25-30 a pop for four measly episodes and some insert filler! XO

And you actually got me into Naruto, dood. I like the way the characters use something-like-alchemy-but-it-isn't in this alternate universe. Plus, oh, God, the depth and intuition of the story...*droolworthy*
