  1. I'll respect anybody with a job. Period.

    I don't care if you're CEO of a multinational, stocking shelves at the local super, cleaning the toilet at some shithole or working on a garbage truck, picking up the trash. It's a job that needs to be done, and someone's paying you to do it. There are assholes out there, sitting on their ass at home watching soaps all day, too proud to take one of the more low-income jobs. Those are the types of people you DON'T want to have working for you, as they think they 'deserve' to make the big bucks.

    Everybody ought to work a minimum wage job at some point in their life, if anything to understand and appreciate the value of money.

    Hear Hear!

  2. Just to let you guys know, I was a noob and plugged in my drive at work, without thinking (As I usually use Windows XP and it asks if you want to open the folder, as its non-u3) and it was a Windows 2000 machine, switchblade ran automaticlly and folding@home slowed the network down to a crawl, we spent days even after running the antidote trying to fix it, and since it was a computer shop, netcafe it didnt go down well, so just letting you guys know.

    Turning a DVD into an AVI file is quite easy, however it takes a lot of time, and can take at least a couple of hours to decrypt and encode the DVD. So you just leave it going over night!

    You need only 2 programs to do this, DVD Decrypter and Auto GK!

    Step 1: RIP

    Put in a DVD and launch DVD Decrypter. Choose IFO (Information File) mode:

    Now make sure you’ve selected a destination for your files:

    Now you need to find which program chain to rip (PGC). Pick the one that’s the longest, which is usually the movie:

    Everything’s set up. Just click the green arrow and wait about twenty minutes, after which you will have a set of files in the Destination directory you selected earlier.

    Step 2: ENCODE

    Launch AutoGK and select the first .vob that you just ripped as an input file, and set an output file name:

    Now you need to select audio (choose the first one) and subtitles, if any:

    The preferred size for a movie is around 700-800Mbytes, for a TV Episode it is around 350Mbytes.

    Finally, click on advanced settings and choose MP3 VBR 128kbs:

    Then click “add job†and “start.†It will then begin encoding the video and audio streams, this is where it will take quite a few hours and it will swap between programs automatically, as some programs do things better then others, so don’t be alarmed.

    Step 4: Watch the Movie

    You’re done. Delete all the all the non-avi files, and that’s it! You have just turned a DVD into an AVI file that you can simply share around with your friends.

  4. giggle wtf?? You come in here saying Hak5 is awesome then you say were girls? WTF!

    Joking lol

    I think its a good idea. However maybe an option to have it turn off after say, 5 seconds of typing. I mean if they know cmoputers they are going to check if the process is running and cancel it, if they dont they will take the computer to the local computer technician then you lol and when they scan for spyware and viruses and you cant find anything they get frustatrated and you come in and save the day.
