I recently received an email from one of registered users of the ocszone.com
The email follows;
| from a user…. |
| At Joomla Extensions it is said that moseasymedia is free,but here at your download you demand credit card details and want to chargeThis is bull shitI’ll fucken tell everyone I can about your con
fucken piece of shit |
This email is obviously from someone who does not know what GPL means. Indeed, let me rephrase; from someone who does not know how to read.
ocszone.com clearly states – in multiple places- that the software we develop and distribute is free of charge unless stated otherwise. Most of those notices are in different colors and bold, so that they will be eye-catchy. And we do NOT demand any private and financial information.
I didn’t bother reading this article, but the lovers of the Harry Potter boy may find this interesting.
By Dave Kopel
Don’t read the rest of this article unless you’ve finished Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. The predictions for book 7 will necessarily involve the revelation of some important plot details from book 6.

I am not a big TV fan, but Chad’s recent article on OpenSourcePenguin.net might be valuable to some.
Written by Chad Auld
Apr 11, 2008 at 09:02 PMEvery so often I have the need and/or the desire to move some local videos on to my Tivo. These could be home movies, videos I have downloaded off the web via bittorrent, etc. I’ve messed with a variety of solutions over the years, but for my own records and perhaps for your benefit I thought I’d just document it here.
The tools I am using the most these days for this task are Galleon and VLC.
Galleon is a free open source media server for the Tivo DVR which allows you to enjoy many kinds of content and interactive applications right on your TV. The server runs on your home computer and organizes your media collection so that they can be viewed on your home network. Galleon also brings Internet content and applications to your TV.
VLC media player is a highly portable multimedia player for various audio and video formats (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, ogg, …) as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols.

The rest is here.
This is sorta old at when I’m posting this, but just came across the videos.
