This woman woke most of my neighbors up this morning, so it seems only fair that I post the video on the internet.
She was outside banging on the glass door for about 15 minutes shouting to the woman who showed up on the other side of the glass to let her in. She was saying something about having spent the night in jail, and that the woman was her best friend. It sounded like some cheating with someone’s boyfriend was going on, but that is only my best guess based on parts of the shouting.
The action happens 25 seconds in to the video. I captured this video, please do not copy it to other sites, just link back here ( http://www.infohole.com/blog/videos/ouch ). Thanks.
Obviously WAN balancing two connections will not double the download speed for a single file transfer through a single connection, but by using a download manager which makes multiple connections, or by using P2P, you can effectively download a single file at 2*XYZmbit/sec by balancing two XYZmbit WAN connections.
PlayFLV.org, another one of my websites, is a simple tool allowing you to play flv and mp4 encoded video files from the web.
I find this useful when testing the output of remote video conversions, etc. This allows me to playback the video as it downloads from the server, rather than having to download the whole file and test the playback locally.
It also helps when I want to show a video file to a client or friend, but don’t want to make it public on YouTube. I can simply drop an flv into my DropBox and then paste the link into PlayFLV.
Since installing Ubuntu 9.10 64bit I’ve been having some problems with the flash player disappearing in Firefox.
I’ve just replaced the .so that was loaded, with the latest 64bit release from Adobe. Just follow the instructions here, but for me the folder was /usr/lib/firefox/plugins, not /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins.
The flash player is showing again, hopefully this plugin resolves the problem I was having.
