<0> and even then, it's not so tough.
<0> earlier C++Builder and Delphi did not have TJpeg
<1> well i find that I can ***ign tjpegimage to tpicture... for some reason..
<1> lol
<0> I'd recommend looking at about.delphi.com, too. good advice about graphcs there.
<2> Costar probably, if that was the only ep he's on
<0> "invisible man" was that him?
<0> the tall bearded guy
<2> http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0813715/fullcredits
<2> http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001172/
<3> what character do you think he played?
<0> I found it :-) "Christopher Eccleston.... Claude (2 episodes, 2007)"
<3> I didn't recognise him.
<0> Thats D/A
<0> THAT VOICE! unmistakable.
<4> yeah, he was claude, the invisible guy.
<3> the invisible guy?
<4> he's teaching Peter how to contrl his powers.
<3> whoa. I didn't recognise his stunted acting...
<3> he ****ed as the "dr"
<0> I knew watching Season 1 25 times would amount to something ;)
<4> 25 times?
<0> I did have other things to do too ;)
<0> Dr Who 2005 (Season 1)
<0> Torchwood people are popping up all over too...
<0> Ecc's been in a lot of stuff...sheesh
<0> XenReborn: this happens to mention TJpeg a lot.
<0> http://www.koders.com/delphi/fidC61392F975079B26D1509BF36062586220A40EEB.aspx?s=opengl
<4> anything with 'koders' in it should be avoided.
<4> ;)
<2> Koder Kombat!
<4> i'm going ot post a myspace link, hte same link i posted last night....
<4> but i want to find out if anyone present DOESN'T like the song on this page, because i claim that if you don't like it you must be dead.
<4> warning, song contains profanity
<4> but crank it up if you can.
<4> or throw your headphones on.

<5> scary
<5> "Wal-Mart has officially entered the download video business, but the real story isn't the features or the pricing. Wal-Mart has beat Mr. Jobs to an important milestone."
<4> Go Walmart.
<0> time fer me to go out into the mean cruel, and very cold world.... don't wait up Mom & Dad.
<5> "Wal-Mart signs all six studios to new service"
<4> what makes that scary?
<5> its walmart :/
<6> maybe he was referring to your taste in music :-P
<4> what makes that scary?
<6> walmart + media = evil
<4> app: you didn't like that song i posted?
<6> i thought it was ok
<6> but i don't know how anybody else feels about it
<4> why do people hate Walmart?
<6> they have too much influence over the content of music, for one thing
<6> it's a form of censorship in my opinion
<4> wha...?
<6> they carry different versions of many albums
<6> albums that would have parental advisory labels when sold in other stores, are edited and cleaned up for sale at walmart...or they won't carry them
<4> and this is bad how?
<7> I don't hate walmart, but they've done some pretty underhanded economic things here that have caused me to lose some respect for them.
<6> why should they have control over speech & art?
<7> As a macroeconomic entity, walmart is great. As a microeconomic entity, they're evil.
<4> Any business owner has the right to choose what they want to sell in their store.
<6> when i buy an album, i want the real one...not some cleaned up **** that an artist had to do just to make them happy
<4> and you cna do that by going elsewhere.
<6> that's not the point
<4> htey're not having control over art or speech
<4> they're having control over what is purchased at their store.
<7> Yup, you vote with your wallet. You don't want what they sell, you don't buy it there.
<7> And yes, that DOES work.
<7> A while ago, walmart announced that they were going offer benefits to same-*** couples the same as married couples.
<6> you know how many people don't even know they are buying that kind of stuff though?
<7> Customers wrote in droves and announced they were boycotting walmart for that reason.
<7> It affected the bottom line.
<6> they don't know their albums have been 'walmarted for their listening displeasure'
<7> They recently announced that they would NOT be offering such benefits.
<7> A great example of market economics in action - the customers spoke in a way that the business listened.
<5> Vibes: boycotts rarely work though
<7> This one did.
<4> the one thing i love about Walmart is that the owners refuse to unionize
<6> and walmart hasn't made some big announcement about censoring music...thye just do it
<7> So buy elsewhere.
<5> i don't mind the idea of unions, but i believe they can get too powerful to be benefical
<5> me either, Drky
<2> Benefits to same *** couples = bad. Outsourcing maintenance to companies that work illegal immigrants for slave labor wages = fine.
<6> well make sure you take a track listing obtained elsewhere and compare when you decide to buy music there
<6> me neither Drk`Angel
<7> Not a problem for me... anything that someone would want to censor I'm highly unlikely to buy anyway.
<2> Vibes: I'm unlikely to be in a gay relationship either, but I still don't support companies that discriminate on principle.
<5> Drky: don't lump me in with that
<2> The "it doesn't affect me" argument is a cop-out.
<7> Drk`Angel: Well, we don't need to get into that debate here, but the point is that the customers spoke, and the business listened.
<6> the only album that hasn't been censored by them that normally would for 'foul' language is pink floyd's dark side of the moon
<6> imagine them demanding the song 'money' be replaced with something else because they say 'bull****' in it
<7> Drk`Angel: True, and I'm not trying to cop out. Just justifying to myself why I don't have a strong opinion on the subject.
<2> Vibes: Oh, I know. I was just using it as an ilustration for my next statement. :)
<7> Ah, gotcha.
<7> Point taken.
<2> You only worry about the things that "affect you directly", and when you do care about something, no one will stand with you either.
<2> That sort of thing.
<7> Yup... part of why the american political system is slowly breaking.
<6> there aren't that many walmarts in northern NJ...and when you do find one, there isn't a kmart for miles & miles
<8> why would you need both ? :P
<7> Here, kmart is across the street from walmart.
<6> they can't really compete with kmart around here
<2> Right down the street from our apartment is a great little scene
<7> And frankly, I'm surprised kmart is still in business. I probably go in there a couple times a year, and the place is usually pretty lonely.
<2> have two giant hills, with a road between them, with a lowes and home depot facing off on opposite hills.
<6> it's pretty busy here
<2> I think they should install cannon.
<6> i love when you hit a corner that has 4 competing gas stations
<6> and one guy lowers the price by a penny
<2> well, depending on how busy the intersection is, that can actually be understandable :)
<6> the other 3 race outseide to do same
<2> I've lived in some cities where crossing to an opposite corner was painfully hard :)
<8> gas prices are stupid
<8> the government should regulate the price, imo
<9> *cough*
<7> THey do.
<6> they pretty much already do :-P
<7> It's just a question of WHICH government. :)
<10> =)
<11> heh
<7> The Iranian and Saudi governments are happy to regulate our gas prices.
<11> government regulates gas prices here
<11> and I think we're currently at 1.1 euros per liter :P
<2> Vibes: They fail pretty horridly
<2> opec members pretty much universially ignore production quotas
<6> oil companies here have the govt in their pockets...so the gas prices are 'regulated' in their favor
<8> north america should quit being afraid of nuclear power, and make a ****ton of power plants, then make electric cars
<7> Agreed.
<7> Absolutely.
<6> or cars that run on vegetable oil
<1> do fonts include whitespace ?
<2> I always wonder what the power bill for metro north is when I'm on it
<6> keep the american farmers working
<2> app: That would be insane.
<8> vegetable oil is not nearly as easy to produce as nuclear power
<2> If toy had the same demand for vegetable oil that there is for gas, it would cost a good 10x as muchm and you wouldn't have any left to cook with
<2> s/toy/you/
<6> the nice thing about it is that you can recycle used cooking oil for it...like from mcdonalds
<3> *laugh*
<7> Actually, in all honesty, my parents' van can run on corn.
<2> app: there's not enough
<8> not even close
<3> commercial on the tv. has a father turning on his new plasma tv and his daughter left it on the music channel for the concert she is attending...
<7> They make ethanol from corn, and and that ethanol can be used in an internal combustion engine with just slight modifications.
