Why on earth...?
Also, sounds like psychosis.

Does the sound actually cut out half-way through, or is it just using that frequency that only young people can hear?

Nah - this is a classic example of failure caused by using an on-board sound card. The vast majority of gamers will spend silly money on monster graphics cards but fail to invest in a sound card - completely unaware that their gaming experience will be ruined for those games that play more than 10 million MIDI notes!

Back in Junior high music class one of our more pointless exercises was to create several measures of 'music' with no requirement other than that the time signatures added up. Most of my classmates took the easy way out and did 4/4 time with ~4 quarter notes/measure. For lulz I created abominations packed full of 1024th notes and 64th notes with a half dozen dots (eg 1/64 + 1/128 + 1/256 + ...); impossible to play as a human and I'm not sure how my teacher actually verified it. Producing it OTOH was easy since i just kept splitting notes in half until I ran out of space on a line to cram the newly created part on.
I'm at least mildly curious if my farce reached the same just clicks level that that video did. IIRC sounds start falling from tone to click around 8 or 4 full oscillations.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Nope. I was a computer geek, but this was all hand written.

A friend sent me a link to a Pinterest page with an Aztec medallion which has some symbolic content somewhat similar to some of the animist iconography found in northern Thailand (which I collect and am interested in). There were other artifacts previewed on that page I would have liked to study.
After about 15 seconds of browsing the page, Pinterest blocked the view with the sign-up-or-go-away page.
Given I know that Pinterest has various relationships with FaceBook, Twitter, etc., I don't like the idea of giving them any personal information, nor am I interested in getting involved with "social pinning," or whatever else they do.
Is there a way to have an account there, and kind of have a "magic shield" around you where they don't know anything beyond the fact you logged in, and what you have looked at ?
thanks, Bill

They probably require you to verify the account with an email address, surely you have a shadow account you use for these type of info vacuums. I think there is event a site that supplies dummy accounts specifically for this type of thing, have to go looks around as I can't the details.

Thanks, Brisingr, that does work, although they soon started putting up recurring messages about "account ... for strange activity;" however, those messages can be closed, and one can go back to browsing the images.
I guess their server code is "smart" enough to recognize simultaneous log-ins using the same entry-validation from multiple IP addressees all over the world
But, I felt so dirty every time I dismissed one of their pop-ups that I had to go wash my hands every time.

I'm increasingly seeing this kind of thing, and warnings that I am "running adblock".
My solution is simple. Buh Bye.
If they have a prerequisite that using their site implies that I give consent to have my privacy violated by a bunch of marketing losers, then I will simply leave. There's nothing there that I need that badly. (see: Google)

In most cases, my solution is to block the "don't use adblock" div.

What I speak of here has no connection with sites that detect you are using an ad-blocker and put up whatever.

Standard or Extended Edition?

I'll have to do it without the missus, however. She doesn't like what they did to The Hobbit.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

We definetely love it, we also watched all the 9 hours of extras of the first and half of the second (4 hours more or less).
Also we'll rewatch all the Star Wars - at least the original trilogy - before the Force Awakens will be in theatres. Usually at least once a year we see all LOTR and all SW... it's good to be two nerds
