I'm assuming some kind of music video. This is a popular dance/activity of some kind...I think in Jamaica. There was an epidemic of broken weiners as a result. (this is not a joke)

I'm going with an 8. His legs clearly separated during the aerial pelvic thrust and his arm placement was clearly off before the landing.

Dude...that video is just...WTF. I thought I'd seen it all, but they're just blatantly miming all types of innapropriate shit to the nth degree
- Rah-PM 2012
That video made my netherbits hurt just watching it. :-/
- Hookuh Tinypants
Probably hasn't been heard of since because you can actually BREAK YOUR WINKY! Which is highly disturbing to me. Hence why I would never even think of doing this. I treasure my winky, along with a relatively small number of other individuals.

"Last week, Intel demoed a new interconnect technology called "Light Peak" which promises to be a flexible high performance optical connector: Intel just showed off a glimpse of the future: Light Peak, an optical interconnect for mobile devices that can run as fast as 10Gbps. That's fast enough to do everything from storage to displays to networking, and it can maintain those speeds over 100-meter runs, which is pretty astounding. Intel says the idea is to drastically reduce the number of connectors on mobile devices, which should allow them to get even smaller The technology could eventually replace the use of Firewire, USB and even display connectors in the future. Engadget has since revealed that 'Light Peak' was actually originally conceived of by Apple and brought to Intel. Apple had reached out to Intel as early as 2007 with plans for an interoperable standard which could handle massive amounts of data and "replace the multitudinous connector types with a single connector...

I assume I can run Mac OS Leopard (Snow Leopard) via some virtual machine app in Windows, correct? If so, what are the best virtual machines for that? (This is obviously the opposite of VMWare Fusion/Parallels question, as I'm looking to run the VM on Windows 7.)
Unfortunately, you are not able to (legally) run OS X under a virtual machine unless you have a license to OS X Server. That said, I really haven't heard of anyone with first-hand experience doing this so I can't help you any more.
- Travis B. Hartwell
Not in the EULA to run OS X Client on anything other than bare metal Apple manufactured hardware. You can however now run OS X Server in virtualization but on a limited basis - http://db.tidbits.com/article...
- Adam Turetzky
VMWare is the only one currently that will run it... if you google it, you *might* find out how :)
- Tim Hoeck
I hate my Mac. I won't be sold on MacOS as an actual functioning OS unless I can use it on my terms on my main Windows machine. Apple is missing out on potential converts by limiting it to hardware with one stinkin mouse button.
- Tamar Weinberg
(and yes, I know I could get an external mouse, but I'm all about laptops with their touchpads)
- Tamar Weinberg
Probably not an option for you but this episode of Tekzilla showed pretty much the best way to Hackintosh. http://revision3.com/tekzill... (fast forward to 9:30 for the Hackintosh part).
- Adam Turetzky
You have to either a) go through a PITA process of creating the machine manually, or b) find an already created virtual machine through *alternative* methods.
- Tim Hoeck
Tamar: Three words: "Multi finger touch". My trackpad happily emulates a second mouse button. Not so sure about the third, but scrolling works just fine.
- Brad McCrorey
Brad, but that's an acquired skill by someone who has been using two-button mice all their lives!
- Tamar Weinberg
On the new ones, you can set the bottom right hand corner of the pad as right-click (control-click in AppleSpeak). So if you click the pad down there, it right clicks; on the other side, left. It's like having a pseudo-second button.
- Ian Betteridge
BTW, just a suggestion, but maybe this could have NOT been posted to the iPhone group? It's not really relevant.

I have OSx running on Hyper V, Server 2008, so it can be done. All the API's for Windows 7 are exactly the same for Server 2008. :)
- Karlheyes
Oh, and, the questionably legal method of getting VMWare Workstaion 7 along with the full OS X Snow Leopard can be found here: http://www.warez-bb.org/viewtop... I suggest using a program called Jdownloader to download the appropriate files from the selected Megaupload links which are the best of the bunch. Take care :]
- Marc Hilton
In relation to getting acclimated with one button and multi-touch: it didn't take me all that long to get used to it. Nearly 2 decades for me until I got a MacBook so 2+ buttons were pretty ingrained (I still use PCs). Multi-touch makes it much easier; one finger press for left click, two finger press for right click.

Tony Arnold set out to make Spaces better. And he has succeeded. HyperSpaces has been in the works for a while now. We reviewed it while in beta, and now that the final version has come to fruition, it’s time to look at it again.

In a fruitless attempt to provide a visual reference my boy and I just spent like 5 mins looking for a chart to show you draenei are pretty damn tall for an Alliance race. Don't judge me! *gets off rl stepping stool*

I'm really trying to get into the druid, but I'm failing. I should respec and try playing as a caster instead of feral. But that'd be admitting I really can't adjust to a non ranged roll. Tauren is my favorite Horde race at the moment, I just wish they were a little bit shorter.
- Joe "Brrzzzzzzt" Pierce
So I've given myself 3 alliance options on Silvermoon. Now I just have to play them!
- Joe "Brrzzzzzzt" Pierce
For the HORDE!!! (As much as I will always be Alliance. Horde battlecry is far superior.)
- Arlan K.
I've always thought that a thousand gnomes all shouting "SALUTATIONS!" in unison as they charge would be just as intimidating as anything else I've ever seen.
- Joe "Brrzzzzzzt" Pierce
+infinity CW. Also, while Tauren are the easiest to make fun of I dislike them least of all the Horde races. I have attempted to play Horde and 90% of the toons I made were moomoos. The 2 I got the most into a a femal named NotaSponge in honor of a warrior tank friend and Buka (the noise a chicken makes) the druid. And just so you don't think I'm gong soft, I fantasize about meeting people who play Blood Elves and punching them in the face. A lot.

I have a female blood elf paladin bank alt. It fit the name I wanted to use and I wanted to have a pally on deck in case I ever felt like trying one out. She is level 12, mostly thanks to holiday xp.

Generally on the PC it does more precise controlled screen captures (regions, with or without cursor or menus etc). I presume it also does video screen captures as on the PC?
- Brian Sullivan
Cmd+Shift+4 lets you select only a region of the screen, and Grab.app has a timed option so you can activate menus, etc. but I guess what Snagit adds are the annotations.

Fwd: Is there a way in iTunes to convert a digital copy of a film down to a more iPhone-friendly size? The Inglourious Basterds digital file (from the bluray package) is almost 2gb; other files I've converted straight from Vuze or Handbrake to iPhone size are around half a gb. (via http://friendfeed.com/faithx5...)
Forgot to crosspost this question here from my feed; Googling suggested using Quicktime Pro, but I only have the basic Quicktime, so I don't have the export option. [I'm on OSX.]

Hmmm...is there an ffmpeg that isn't command line based? I am not a programmer, and I looked through the documentation on ffmpeg.org, and it all looks like gibberish to me.
- Jandy
Yes, but there are enough Google hits from people who've figured it out...try the simple: ffmpeg -i <filein>.avi <fileout>.mp4 and let me know how it works for you.
- Prolific Programmer
If you rightclick the video in itunes you should get a "Create iPod or iPhone" option.
- Joshua Schnell
Prolific - never got past the compiling the program stage. Couldn't even get that done. Tried ffmpegX, but that created a 2 1/2 hour long blank file. Joshua, that option is greyed out, possibly because it's already iPhone compatible (it's an m4v), it's just huge - I just want to lower quality/resolution settings to knock it from 2gb down to about 500 or 600mb.

I have the same file... it's protected / DRM'd, the only ways I know of are analog hole, gray-market software that gets around the DRM, or software that captures what's being displayed on your screen (e.g., Snapz Pro).
- Tinfoil 2.0
LogEx, that's what I was afraid of. Dumb of them not to include multiple file sizes on the digital copy disc, I think. Tempts me to rent the DVD and rip it myself.
- Jandy
As Joshua Schnell said - "If you rightclick the video in itunes you should get a "Create iPod or iPhone" option".
- Khürt Williams
Khurt, but you don't. That was the first thing I tried. I think LogEx is right, they've DRMed the usefulness out of it.

Smoking a Romeo y Julieta #1 cigar made in Havana, Cuba while drinking a rum and Ting and listening to the waves crashing on the beach? Priceless...Although Tina would not approve with the way the shop here is storing the cigars. I definitely think it was dry and had a bitter finish as a result...I'd give it a 5 out of 10.
This is a pretty cool windows resizing app for your Mac. It's only $7.00, checkout the screencast video on the site as well.

It is wall powered so it includes a hefty A/C adapter (which goes into wall) so that it doesn't draw the power from the PC's PSU. So A/C from wall->hub then usb from pc->usb on hub.

"The website "iFixIt" has been a goldmine of information and how-to instructions for repairing various models of Macintosh that have been released over the years, starting with the "Pismo" PowerBook G3 in 2004. Their take-apart manuals have been filled with detailed photographs and illustrations that clearly show the steps for replacing parts, and accessing components for servicing. On December 15th, they licensed all of their repair manuals to the public for free. This is great news for the Macintosh community, as it will allow people who have older computers to more easily repair their systems. The manuals have been released under the "Creative Commons" BY-NC-SA license, which gives everyone the ability to share, modify, and build upon the works as long as they are distributed in the public domain. I am personally quite grateful that iFixIt is doing this, because it will augment the current set of guides with notes and added details from other users. Take-apart manuals of this...

But in the event Apple opts to partner with other mobile-phone service providers, Verizon Wireless says it's up to the task. Verizon Wireless has even made upgrades that would make its network more capable of handling extra traffic that would be generated by the iPhone, Verizon Wireless Chief Technology Officer Anthony Melone says in an interview."
