Hands down, Dusty Diamond's All-Star Softball. Especially since you get to
assemble your team from 60 distinct players. Plus there are some gimick players
like the Diablo who is a little red devil-guy and bats with a mace, and Zelda
the witch who bats with a broom.
I've really liked Comic Party since the moment I first saw it. I was pretty
much overjoyed when Rightstuf released it in the US. I'm hoping they go ahead
and license the CP: Revolution OVA too. What I really need though, is a
translated version of the CP game.
Yep. I have a bad addiction. My current anime wallpaper directory is up to
1,339. I'm pretty discerning though, I download ones I like, and have many from
favored series. I think I have something like 80 Onegai Teacher/Twins, probably
as many Kiddy Grade, and Love Hina. I just wish I had the talent to actually
MAKE some walls myself.
If you know Java, C++ will be quite easy. I went the opposite way though. C++
to Java. I know c/c++, Java, Perl, and Lisp. But I don't really use any of it
so I'd probably be hard pressed to make any good of it anymore. Darn unused
Comp Sci knowledge.
First @ Cyanide: I'm just curious, you;ve studied law so can you tell me the
difference between something violating the law and being considered a truly
illegal action? Okay, that sounded too snippy, I know, I apologize. The fact
of the matter is, fansubs of unlicensed series infringe of Japanese copyrights.
They are illegal. As the creators though, it is up to the Japanese studios to
protect their coprights and currently they choose not to pursue legal action
against fansubbers. Now when a series becomes licensed by a N. American company
(everyone likes to pick on ADV for an example), they can now pursue legal action
because the fansub is also violating their license. Studio reps have commented
that the Japanese companies have also been pressuring them to fight 'piracy'
more and more as well.
The way I look at it is that fansubs really don't directly affect a Japanese
studio. Their market is in Japan, they're more worried about raws, not subbed
series. However, it can indirectly affect them because sales from licensing
push the US licensors to spend more money acquiring new licenses or co-funding
shows.
Wow, I wrote an awful lot just to basically say that unlicensed for R1 fansubs
are tolerated but just as illegal as licensed for R1 fansubs.
Of course, it should be mentioned that it's only illegal if your country
recognizes international copyrights. The best indicator are members of the
Berne Convention. You can see a list of countries that have entered into the
convention here: http://www.wipo.int/treaties/en/documents/pdf/e-berne.pdf
Quote by kirchuDARN IT! People took
the sites I wanted to give you, but I hear Bittorent steals a lot of Bandwidth
so use miRC.
Technically, all downloads "steal" bandwidth, but they're stealing
your downstream. The way BitTorrent works is that everyone shares the file with
everyone else (file swarming) so you're uploading and downloading pieces of the
file at the same time. The benefit? you can receive parts of the file from
more places than just the completed "seed".
An example would be User A, User B, and User C. The seed sends the first 1/3 of
the file to user A, the 2nd 1/3 to User B and the last 1/3 to User C. User A
can be downloading from the seed as well as User B and User C to complete their
file much faster (and become another seed). It also means that if Users A, B
and C each have a complete 1/3 that so long as they upload, someone can download
a completed file without there even being a seed.
If you're concerned about upstream bandwidth usage, BitTorrent has some
command-line flags to restrict upload speed. Though, restricting how much you
upload will usually limit your download speed (it's designed that way). Why
would you want to restrict uploading? Well, you usually don't want to saturate
your upload bandwidth if you want to be able to surf the net while you download.
You need some upload bandwidth to send page requests etc. I have cable at home
with 3 Mbit download and 360 kbit upload. Rarely would I ever see 3 Mbit speeds
downloading with BitTorrent, but I can easily see a 35 kbyte upload, which
saturates my upload bandwidth, so I restrict BT from using more than 25 kbyte
for uploads. Some 3rd-party BitTorrent clients probably do that much easier
than using a command line.
i think it's a pretty good system for file sharing, legality issues with WHAT
you're sharing aside.
NVidia really has already announced SLI, you just need a motherboard with a pair
of PCIe x16 slots for two cards and the little bridge between them. In addition
to paying for your two video cards, I figure the motherboard will probablly be
$200+ or at least near $200. Note that the SLI video cards aren't anything
special at all. If I remember, all the PCIe Nvidia cards in the 6600 and 6800
series have a notch on the top for the SLI bridge so they can connect to a
second card. We're just waiting for a dual PCIe board.
The Read or Die OVA, I saw fansubbed before I bought it and after I watched it,
it became a must-buy as soon as it would be released. The music and characters
just pulled me right in. I was pretty interested when ROD the TV was announced,
but I passed on the fansubs since the license was announced so quick, so it
became a blind-buy for me. I really think this has to be one of the top series
of the year. The animation has been very well-done in the first couple volumes
and the dub is top caliber. There have been a couple problems with the audio
mix on the DVD release but nothing horrible. The three sisters in TV really
make the show for me, especially with the performances by Rachel Hirschfeld
(Anita), Hunter MacKenzie Austin (Michelle) and Sara Lahti (Maggie). The other
performances are pretty good as well.
I have a recently purchased Viewsonic P95f+b 19" CRT. I really like it
though it was a b@&$^ to get the geometry right. I also have an IBM P70
17" CRT and an IBM 17V 17" CRT (shadow mask on that one) for the other
machines.
I have a few. Raimuiro Senkitan Artworks, Raimuiro Senkitan Jun Guide Book,
Popotan Visual Fan Book, Stellvia Visual Book, Onegai Teacher Visual Colletion,
Comic Party TV Series Perfect Collection, Ensemble Visual Fan Book, and Kimi Ga
Nozomu Eien Art Book. Also have the Onegai Twins Visual Collcetion en-route. I
don't find them to be all that expensive to import. I usually pay probably $35
per book I think it is with shipping included through Hobbylink Japan. If you
hop over to my gallery here you can see some of the images from a couple of
those (Ensemble, Senkitan, and a few character sheets from Teacher).
My favorite artbook? I dunno really, they all have pretty pictures, so I doubt
I'd be able to narrow it down.
If you want a lousy explanation, I could try doing it in Swedish, which I don't
know at all. I'm sure that'd be interesting.
Seriously, I also can't even use up a 100 MB Yahoo account, much less the 1 GB
gmail. It's a marketting thing that's marginally useful to the average user
most likely.
Quote by Evolution-People never learn,
You never have those 1gb, 3gb or whatever the size
is, since they know that you wont fill your inbox with it, thats why
they can say that you got 3gb or something, when you dont realy have
it.
But you can actualy use up all the storage, but not everyone that is
using it can use up all their storage all together since the provider
doesnt have that total amount of storage in total.
I think you should rather explain it as the provider doesn't have the storage to
cover the maximum of every mailbox. When they start getting to a full point on
the server, they can expand storage as needed, thus they likely could cover
every box with storage, but they only cover what's being used + a nice buffer to
save on costs.
Someone should also point out that these place probably won't let you receive a
1 GB email. Gmail for example has a maximum limit on 10 MB on incoming/outgoing
messages (text+attachments).
The biggest standout for me is Noir. I've seen the first episode and I bought
the entire DVD set when it was on sale but I haven't gotten around to actually
watching it yet.
I also need to finish up watching:
Sorcerer Hunters
ROD the TV
Chrono Crusade
Maburaho
Really, for Chrono and Maburaho, I stopped watching fansubs when they were
licensed, so I have to wait for the R1 discs to get out to see the end. ROD I
didn't watch subbed at all, so I'm just waiting for each disc.
Quote by blueotaku-sp
Just true the mp3 stuff, dl progs. it´s just the same that you
download
anime!!
Besides in Internet it doesn´t not matter if it is licensed in
USA
´cause a lot of the sites are from Europe or Asia
I knew of ADV case where they "harrass" two sites for distributing
their licensed products, obviously this sites were sharing this stuffs
way too long before this corp. licensed, and let me tell you that I
have seen this DVD and the subtitle service it´s just bad and
the
fansub were better, so to be out of trouble this both sites gentelly
deleted and ceased the distribution.
This Corps. had not a real argument for this actions against those
sites ´cause they had no jurrisdiction in the countries of the
Admin.
Besides this USA Corp. make no effort (in most of the cases) to present
a decent or very good quality sub. they just realease them and sit
their fat ass waiting.
Also most of the USA DVD doesn´t support other languages except
English
too bad!!
Finally if you wanna really suport the authors of those series you
gotta buy the original Region 2 DVD, not USA versions. Some of this
region 2 have subtitle options. Not all pay ´cause in Internet
almost
every thing it´s for free and really would you waste your money
for
something that you can get on the net for free with a better worked
subs?
First of all, foreign sites are completely within the jurisdiction of an anime
licensor, if they purchase worldwide distribution rights from the Japanese
license holder. In this way ADV could have sites in Europe shut down because
the distribution of anime is infringing on their worldwide license which the
country in question will recongize if it is part of the World Trade Organization
and a signatory of the Berne Convention. In the example you provided, the site
sharing the series in question had no troubles before ADV licensed it because
until ADV has a contract signed, the only company that has legal recourse is the
original Japanese license holder. Once ADV has a license contract though, it
becomes their business, and they choose to protect their license. I should note
that ADV reps have said lately that Japanese companies are starting to push the
US licensors to go after piracy more and more.
As far as sub quality, I assume you can understand Japanese, thus you can gauge
the quality of subs? Too many times I hear people being critical of the
translations on licensed DVDs yet I don't often see any real support for the
argument in terms of examples. Certainly even professional translators for
companies can make mistakes from time to time, but are fansubs perfect? Far
from it. I could go an take a simply horrible example with the ever-infamous
"mass naked child events" from AnimeJunkies. You also have to
consider how subbing is done. Professionally done subs generally don't leave in
unstranslated bits, as that makes the subtitle inaccessible to many viewers. If
I don't translate "onegai" for example, and leave that in the sub, you
have to count on your audience to know what that means. This is, in effect,
defeating the purpose of the sub, which is to make the show viewable to
non-japanese speakers. More recently things have been getting better. ADV
has included a nice wad of translation notes with Azumanga Daioh to explain all
sorts of things to the viewer, and anyone's who's seen it will know that it is
VERY necessary.
Finally, purchasing R1 DVDs *does* support the original creators, in that
they're reaping benefits from licensing fees and R1 studios co-producing more
series. The more money the R1 studios make, the more money will be spent on
more licenses and co-production. It's indirect monetary support, but it's a lot
more support than just downloading. I, for one, have NO problem if you want to
buy R2 DVDs to go along with your fansubs, since you have a nice legitimate copy
still.
The only problem I have, I already mentioned and Shrimpy-san commented on
nicely. non-US folks many not have a market for anime and thus, they may be
left with the choice to import (expensive) or download.
I just hope people don't see me as attacking fansubs. I watch fansubs myself,
so yes, you can label me a hypocrit However, when something is licensed, I stop
downloading and wait for the DVD. If I don't like a show, I won't watch it past
3 episodes. If I watch a show more than that, I buy it one DVD.
i had a great big message all typed up, but I think it would lead to unwanted
arguments. So I'll just add this:
Anime is a luxury item, luxury items aren't necessary to life, thus you aren't
entitled to them if they're too expensive. Anime really *isn't* all that
expensive, and there's rentals as an alternative for licensed series. Downloads
not hurting a company is simply a rationalization for piracy. All signing
countries of the Berne convention recongize Japanese copyrights and thus all
fansubs in those countries are illegal.
That said, the industry currently tolerates fansubs for unlicensed series. That
puts them in an interesting limbo of tolerated illegality. I for one take
advantage of that, but purchase the series I watch when they are licensed. If
I'm only "mildly interested" in it in the first place, then I probably
wouldn't be watching it.
Now comes the quagmire, the US licensors usually get worldwide rights when they
license an anime. How many of these companies release discs in say... Norway?
That leaves non-US folks to either import the R1, which *is* rather expensive,
or continue with fansubs. Or the unlikely alternative of building up the anime
industry in their region so someone actually does release discs for them. I
really don't have a good answer there, I would probably be importing my DVDs,
but since I'm not in that position it's difficult to assume what I'd do.
I've had zero problems with APC both at home and at work. So I only use APC for
home and we prefer APC for the office (1500s or 3000s for servers, routers,
switches, etc).
However, I have heard a story where APC gave someone a horrible time reimbursing
them for a lightning-damaged PC. They first tried to blame the modem, which
wasn't fried, plus a stereo was killed that was on the same surge protector. I
believe thay had to go through 2 levels of management to get anything and I may
be remembering wrong, but there could be fine print on that $50,000 (I think
that's the amount) warranty saying that APC doesn't need to pay if they don't
feel they're at fault.
I will anti-recommend PowerWare UPSes. We had a few of them delivered with
equipment from a new vendor and they were terrible. Many didn't even work out
of the box.
If I remember correctly it was announced that someone would be making a Da Capo
licensing announcement in 3 months, which I think put the announcement date
areound January, as that news isn't new. I think that was announced by Da
Capo's publisher?
I also just watched this and would say the same thing. It was a pleasant
surprise as I had no clue what it was about. It really fills the comedy slot of
the stuff I'm watching this season. At least until I see Yakitate to judge
that.
