I Love Linux

Mar 03, 2005 01:28

I've got 15 instances of LAME running. I've got 8 BitTorrents running. I'm playing MP3s, browsing the web, writing mail, editing and compiling code. There is no loss of responsiveness in the GUI, despite a load of more than 18. Apple should take note! Whenever there's heavy network or disk activity, Mac OS X 10.2's Aqua interface slows the fuck ( Read more... )

That all means very little to me as I am quite technie ignorant, but,

a) Never, never is a lovely song; and
b) My life and purchase of hard disks is dominated by BitTorent in a way I never envisaged possible.

So I thought I'd say so :-)

Man, I am jealous! I can't even run a single instance of Lame while burning or grabbing CDs unless I want my music full of glitches. Course my PC is over five years old... I want to do it a lot as well cos my DVD player plays MPEGs which is pleasant. Tasty AMV goodness without even having to boot up the PC! The guy in the shop specifically told me it didn't do that even though I specifically asked him. Mind you, he undersold me on a brand which I wouldn't have otherwise bought so I'm not complaining too much.

PS. I can't get over how sexy you look with your hot, new transparent background! I think the girl above me should get one too. What say?

That's crazy-cool. You mean it can read the audio tracks of MPEGs on a CD and play them through the headphone socket, like normal CD/DVD players can play music CDS?

Er, the girl above you is a man, as am I :)

I'm still flattered, though :) Your devilbunny looks pretty hot.

No, I mean it can play the video and audio tracks through a television.
