    No particular reason, my company just didn't send me this year (I'm a product manager and I've been to WES the last two years in a row)... they sent some managers from the sales department instead.

     

    And RIM chooses this year to give away 6000 free PlayBooks to everyone there

    *gasp!* Episode 32 All Green?

    in Freeman's Mind

    It's not necessarily the obvious. The chart does not indicate whether or not the episode has been submitted to Machinima.

     

    Yes it does. It's the "Encoding and Uploading" box. All green.

     

    Damn you Machinima.com! Damn you to hell!!!!!

    Subtítulos Freeman's Mind 1

    in Spanish (español)

    Ok, acá va la primera versión de la traducción completa del archivo que posteé en la sección de subtítulos en inglés para el episodio 1. Creo que se ve bastante bien. Ahora voy a seguir con su versión en italiano.

     

    P.D. Luis, ¿es posible que cambies el nombre de este thread? Para que quede como Subtítulos Freeman's Mind 1 o algo así, de forma que todos los nombres de los distintos threads de los episodios sean uniformes.

    Post your setup!

    Thanks a lot for you help. Ordering it directly from Newegg is not really an option: they don't ship internationally and using an intermediate courier service is very expensive (between taxes and shipment, I'm guessing more than 40% total increase).

     

    Now I'm going to take an inner trip and weigh all the options. I feel strongly towards a laptop, I do like the mobility, but that would mean compromising in processing and graphics. On the other hand, I could build a much more powerful desktop, but I fear I wouldn't use it a lot (my free time is scarce or already occupied by other activities) or end up using my old laptop and a remote desktop connection, as a friend told me he was these days.

     

    I'll post my new setup here, once it's up and running.

    FREEMAN'S MIND: EPISODE 1

    in English

    OK, so I went over the file, fixed a few timing and consistency problems and modified it so that whenever there's dialog from Freeman and the intercom at the same time, they are always separated by a double space.

     

    Also, I tested the italics on YouTube. The strangest thing happened. I could swear the first time I tried it on a video, it worked. I had only modified a couple of lines, so I changed a few more and tried again... and this time the tags showed. I don't know what happened. I tried several times, always with the same result. So, I followed your suggestion and now the intercom is identified by brackets. I applied the same criteria for the security guard at the end.

     

    I've watched the final product a couple of times and it looks OK to me, so I'll be using this file as the basis for the Spanish and Italian translations.

     

    EDIT: I spotted and fixed I minor problem with one line reading "hub" and then "hall", another "oh" and "whoa" and a comma that disappeared in the same manner. I've uploaded the new file.

    So you think this could be a good choice or would you go with the desktop?

    Unless you're planning on taking it with you elsewhere, desktops will always be better value and quality for the price.

    What country are you in? (need to know for a more localized pricing of the components)

     

    I'm in Chile. Thing, long and far away from everything.

     

    If you want to see what I have to work with, this is my friendly components store. Here you've got your CPUs, here the motherboards and here are the video cards. The chilean peso is at about 475 per USD, so just to give you a sense of the prices, the setup I posted would go for this.

     

    Intel CPU Core i5-2500 3.30 GHz Box (1155) - USD 297

    M/B Intel P8P67-M B3 A/L (1155) - USD 180

    Video PCIE GTX460 1024mb DDR5 - USD 295

     

    EDIT: this is an open question: what do you do with power comsumption with a machine like that? Should be around 600 or 700 W. That's a lot for, let's say, having it on all night serving CP and FM.

    Strange beings, nowhere to be found on the internet.

     

    We don't talk about them

     

    If you happen to be spoken to by one, compliment her and listen to what she has to say (it doesn't really matter if you understand it ). If she asks you if she looks fat in a particular piece of clothing, it's a trick question, there's no correct answer. Fake intestinal problems and excuse yourself to the bathroom.
