Interesting. This error is occurring for all programs that require the file then, yes?

You said the Visual C++ redistributable did nothing to fix this? Unfortunate, I thought that was the most likely to fix it. At this point I'd uninstall Paint.net, download the latest version and then reinstall it, see if that fixes the issue.

Alright, for some reason tinyurl is working just fine now. Huh

And now another shitty problem

For some reason XBox won't let me add points online without going to my other for a code.

I have to add my PC as trusted, and for that to work I need Live Essentials.

I download and install the whole piece of shit, restart the computer

Go back to my account, and I have to download Live Essentials to add my PC as trusted.

Why is my computer trying to make me stroke out, and how do I resolve this without wasting seven hundred dollars worth of electronics?

>>4371
A thought: Are you using XP?

>>4295
downloaded it for a virtual machine, haven't been arsed to actually install it. All the screen shots saying "Windows Build 7601.etc" (Windows 7 is build 7600) don't instil a lot of faith.

Suppose I should make a post about this

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/release-preview

Windows 8 is available from Microsoft for free trial in a Virtual Machine. My personal favorite, so easy you won't believe it Virtual Machine Manager is VirtualBox:

https://www.virtualbox.org/

What is a Virtual Machine? Imagine you could run a fake computer inside a real computer the way you could run a game. It's very good for testing questionable files, and, increasingly, for testing and development for upcoming systems. Windows 8, Windows Server 2008, and I think there's even an Android version floating around that should all be free to try when run in a VM. (Don't quote me on that though).

Anybody who's tried to maintain an archive of files by date will recognise how damn useful it is.

Hello. I have had this program for over ten (10) years. It's Fyiro's Playstation Multi Converter or PsxMc for short. The program finds media by scanning the disc and creating a virtual "fingerprint" that gets saved as a "CDAZ" file. Many years ago, I had Japanese to English translation software installed. I was able to order a key for a whopping $13.63. The Sony XA audio format is a realy weird bird. The method of compression is to recuce the hertz rating from 44.1 down to 38.7. When the program does the conversion from XA to WAV, it will write the new file at 44.1 I am an honest man, emaill me and I'll try to help you the best I can.

>>4184
This may be a months old response, but thank you anyway.

PsxMC FUCKING SUCKS. Not only it only works on selected few prehistoric drives, it always fucks up the tracks. Fuck it.

I found the right program on my own, and it is jpsxdecoder. It is very recent, and works with all drives in the world. It reads disc images and converts any PS1 file into what you want.

>>4342
funny how just about all that can be condensed into a micro PC nowadays.

>>4302
i dont think any part of this site is fast enough to justify that

>>4303
I would stay here and post if it had the backlink preview though. What if that's what other people need as well?

>>4304
If you script it, they will come.

Cause Anonex ain't gonna.

>>4331
None of those pinheads in the Capital should be anywhere near cyber security legislation of any kind. Frightening that none of this really understand technology since they all come from an era where computers were virtually nonexistent

>>4332
They're fine with weapons and toys they can play with but not something that can be used by anyone else.

>>4333
that anyone else includes the citizens of the US which makes them dangerous to the world as a whole. Specially since the majority of the time those thick wits don't come up with the legislation on their own but some outside firm draws it up and they just bob their head and take the bribe to pass the vile things.

Hold your hand still but waggle your thumb around.

The screen is about 60% bigger than your maximum waggle distance.

I'm ok with it though.

>>4291
I've got pretty sizable mitts. Hence why I want a Note so bad.

>>4292

Ditto. Don't care bout no babby hands problems no more, want something my hand won't accidentally swallow.

Yes. Download Realplayer and Realdownloaded. They should include a program that lets you download any video playing in your screen.

Firefox+Flashgot+JDownloader if you haven't already tried it.

>>4273
>download realplayer

what kind of monster would force someone to download realplayer

>>4266
PC, XP. I have an Nvidia graphics card.

A better example, if it may help. Look at the wings. Set to my television's default statistics, you can't see much more than the red lines, if at all. After adjusting to my current settings, I can just make out the far tip of the blue.

>>4268
Well, set as a wallpaper. Right now I can't see any of the wings.

>>4268
see if you can adjust the color and such through the NVidia control panel. Should be located in the regular control panel.

Wait, Kindles can do comics now? Niiice.

I haven't actually ever used Netflix (although I've wanted to) and I can't read, watch a lot of stuff, or play vidja in the car or else I get horrible vertigo. I think if anything, I'll end up buying an eBook reader. Thanks for the advice!

Another question- if a game comes out for iPad, should it also come out for Mac as well?

>>4199
The Kindle Fire is good for reading comics. I don't have a ton of experience with it, but I might buy one for my mom soon.

>if a game comes out for iPad, should it also come out for Mac as well?

Not really, but I think there's a way to emulate them.

My mom is really good at getting free iPads.
A 2 was her 25 year employment gift and then she won a 3 at a staff party.
My sister called dibs on the old one almost immediately, lol.
I've tried it out, seems pretty cool.
The only thing is the times I'd want to have an iPad on me are times where I wouldn't want to be carrying it around.
My phone will suffice for now.

Mostly 320 mp if I can find it for the player sometimes FLAC if its on the desktop and I got the surround hooked in. Speaking of Audio anyone know anything about earphones

http://www.amazon.com/JBuds-Fidelity-Ergonomic-Earbuds-style-Headphones/dp/B005VEZ57S

Found this pair and the overall specs look pleasing.

Same as >>4213

I'm the kind of person who is irrationally opposed to compression artifacts, whether or not they're ones we can actually perceive.

So FLAC.

If we can make stuff like the Williams X-Jet a.k.a. The Flying Pulpit...

I'm sure we will, eventually, make flying cars common, at least in cities. However, they'll probably be self-piloting to minimize the chance of collision, so once Google's self-driving cars take off, similar systems could be developed for flying vehicles.

As for lighter-than-air vehicles, I see those potentially being put into use as cheap and efficient but slow transports, whether for mail, product delivery, or anything else. Heck, it could possibly make direct deliveries, cutting out the middleman. I know, I'm crazy for thinking it, but it's at least *possible*. We can dream, and maybe someday, some other crazy person will try to accomplish it.

>>3908
The first major obstacle I see with a self "flying" vehicle is that you will also need to calculate air density, temperature, and winds. Completely possible, but you will need constant updates. As it stands, the most frequent aviation weather updates we get happen ever half hour, or so. But, like you said, using the internet and automatic weather reporting stations would make it possible.

A bigger problem with weather is an aircraft's vulnerability to high winds. On a nice breezey day, let's say 30 knot winds, a lot of smaller aircraft will be in deep shit. For something as densely populated as New York or something, the flying car (at least to me) just doesn't seem like a viable solution.

That and you still have the same major problems of fuel consumption and the downward thrust being a hazard to those around you.

Now, as a recreational vehicle out in more rural areas, you would find a pretty big market. Make something cheap, easy to fly, able to be put on a trailer, easy to story in a garage or a public storage unit and you have yourself a winner.
