Yes, our evil server is pro. If you watch episode 9 you'll see that after we throw him off the parking garage he comes back right before the trivia segment when Alli reads the godaddy promo. He's got a band-aid on his 'forehead'.

ROFL *chants "one of us"*

make yourself comfortable :)

no your totally right. i dont make the distinction when i type because it's easier to type noob, but basically what it boils down to is that a noob is someone who doesnt know and doesnt care to learn, where as a newb is someone who doesnt know but at least has the will to learn or something like that do i get a cookie for longest sentence in the thread?

composite (rca connectors, yellow) over cat6 works too. i wanna see DVI over IP. not just DVI over cat6, but TCP or UDP or whatever works without making it look like junk. sorry, the software guy in me is coming out. back to the hardware mod.

every thread has potential but his threads provoked godwins law more than others

after effects is nice but it doesnt fit into our workflow. im really stretching vegas's abilities in terms of compositing but it works and once the intro is done it's done and i don't have to mess with it again so, im just working with what ive got. i know a screwdriver would be more elegant but right now ive got a hammer and a deadline ;)

this is a problem on our end. we are aware of it. we're too swamped to do much about it right now while we go crazy wrapping up this season. i'm talking with some isps now and i think we'll be able to get our back catalog online soon.

maybe the review from wired magazine would fit

the svideo over cat6 hack is sweet. i say go for it. google and ye shall find diagrams. and remember to come back and show us when you've got it done.

AskANinja would be proud. Now I'm thinking I want to see Evil Server vs. Ninja Boy!

credit goes to pure pwnage on that one. and yes, for the record I do <3 Noobs. I was a noob once and still am in many fields but thats the beauty of the internet, podcasting, etc is that it's so easy to become a non-noob. http://www.purepwnage.com (they rock)

We use Sony Vegas and I've got to say it's wonderful. Just as powerful as finalcut pro or premiere yet intuitive enough that anyone can jump right in without a big thick manual at your side. Have fun and experiment. Believe it or not it's powerful enough to do simple compositing. The transitions for Hak.5 we're all done in Vegas. I can't wait for you guys to see the season2 intro too, it's killer. Anyway, if your not looking to spend any money there is always imovie on mac and windows movie maker on windows but my vote is for vegas. I don't know of any full featured open source video editors but if anyone else does I'd love to hear about it. Darren

Maybe noob was the wrong term. I have nothing against noobs. I <3 Noobs. Noobs become leet hax0rs... or something like that. Anyway I guess we're flaimingfarktardless

Spektormax was one of the reasons i didnt ban $ynt4xe770r in the begining. I thought he would eventually grow up. At first I thought even spek was a troll, but once you look past his bad spelling you see that he's an intelligent dude. Anyway I guess your right; the forum is noobless. Maybe it's better that way.

Williamsburg, Virginia if ya wanna have a beer with the cast oh, and this is a good opportunity to pimp the frappr map http://www.frappr.com/hak5

Sorry I havent been on the forums for a few days. It's been crazy production over here. I wish I could report that its going smoothly but thats another topic. I'm just making this thread to let you guys know that after battling with the angel (freedom of speech) and devil (censorship) I finally decided that $ynt4xe770r just flaimbait so he's been banned. Sorry if you'll miss his insightful comments like "wh0 w4n7s 4 bJ ft0m diz ch1xx"

It's been added to the sketches page. You can also always find direct download links at: http://hak5.libsyn.com and http://hak5xvid.libsyn.com And yes, it's mislabeled. It's a sketch, not an episode. I was very tired when I named it and changing the RSS isn't something I'd like to do. So enjoy the firefox ad / evilserver sketch. It was raining last saturday and we just got inspired and had some fun. I'll make a blog post sometime this week with a production wrapup and all the other fun stuff about us going to toronto for call for help and us being in the may issue of wired magazine.

What? Programmers getting paid for their hard work? Sounds like communism! </sarcasm>

Only thing I want to know about vista is: Can I make it look like Windows 2000 again? Thanks!

I'll pull a Wil Wheaton and answer this one now. Yes.

I would love to see it!

We want to put some interviews on the DVD as an addition to the behind the scenes stuff. I'm looking for questions you would like to see taken. Obvious stuff is "How did Hak.5 originally come to be?" and "What has been the hardest part in doing the show?" Your questions and input is much appreciated. Darren

Ok forum junkies of Hak5, you got me curious. What other forums have/do you frequent? I used to be addicted to brighthand.com's forums and maybe a few DV forums here and there.
