Movies Through the Eyes of Kids
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.

Student 'Twitters' his way out of Egyptian jail - CNN.com![]()
Buck, a graduate student from the University of California-Berkeley, was in Mahalla, Egypt, covering an anti-government protest when he and his translator, Mohammed Maree, were arrested April 10.On his way to the police station, Buck took out his cell phone and sent a message to his friends and contacts using the micro-blogging site Twitter.The message only had one word. "Arrested."Within seconds, colleagues in the United States and his blogger-friends in Egypt -- the same ones who had taught him the tool only a week earlier -- were alerted that he was being held.

andLinux.org -- Run Linux natively inside Windows
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
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":

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.Walken: Talkin' Web 2.0
