Movies Through the Eyes of Kids

Once upon a time we were all pretty stupid. It's an unfortunate side effect of being young, impatient, and uncultured. Eventually we grew larger, gained extra limbs, and became adults. But during that horrifying nightmare of youth, with all its jumbled priorities, interests, and miniature attention spans, we saw things remarkably different. With that in mind, the Something Awful Forum Goons took a big pile of movies and edited them to show how they would appear when viewed through the eyes of the typical elementary school kid.

andLinux.org -- Run Linux natively inside Windows

andLinux uses coLinux as its core which is confusing for many people. coLinux is a port of the Linux kernel to Windows. Although this technology is a bit like running Linux in a virtual machine, coLinux differs itself by being more of a merger of Windows and the Linux kernel and not an emulated PC, making it more efficient. Xming is used as X server and PulseAudio as sound server.

Download YouTube Videos as MP4 Files

An interesting side-effect of YouTube's recent push for higher quality videos is that most videos can be downloaded as MP4 files directly from YouTube. Until now, you could only get FLV files from your browser's cache or using one of the many websites that let you download YouTube videos. In fact, to download the MP4 files, you need to use the same URL like for FLV files and append "&fmt=18":

Man Charged With Screwing a Patio Table

Art Price, Jr., 40, has been charged with four counts of public indecency after a neighbor videotaped him getting all nasty with the umbrella hole in the middle of his plastic picnic table.

Christopher Walken: Talkin' Web 2.0

Am I the only one.... that doesn't... give a crap about the iPhone? Who needs, some pansy little... glass encased, lightweight piece of junk. Give me a brick. I'll make my phone calls with a brick. You might say, "Chris, how can you call people... with a brick?" Trust me, when Walken calls with his brick... you'll hear it.

Thomas: not your average bear

Back in 2004, the innovative photographer and photoblogger Noah Grey was working with the Photos team on developing Picasa. He contributed a great deal to the design and evolution of the software, but one of Noah's most unforgettable contributions can be seen by pressing Control-Shift-Y while in Picasa. Continue pressing it, and watch what appears all over your screen. Given to Noah as a gift by an old friend, this bear has had a special place in Noah's life for over 15 years; and Noah decided to return the favor.
