    Things that piss you off.

    Let me take a wild guess: you grew up in a home where the parents were intellectually incurious. You recieved a mediocre education and didn't care for studying. Printed words make your brain hurt. You watch anti-intellectual garbage like FOX News. The only exposure you've had to science are...

    Things that piss you off.

    Fine, fine... back on topic: people that think their faith and beliefs are just as good as scientific fact piss me off. You're just as welcome to claim "the world is flat" or "evolution is a lie" as you are "global warming is bullshit." Just don't expect me not to laugh and point.

    Things that piss you off.

    That's the opposite of what I quoted above. I cited the world's leading national academies of sciences, and the IPCC (a herculean global effort to synthesize current scientific understanding of climate research.) There is a consensus that anthropogenic warning is very likely to be the main cause...

    (TV) ママは昔パパだった

    If you're interested in transgender issues, I would recommend picking up / downloading the manga 放浪息子 ("Hourou Musuko"). It follows the life of a 5th grade boy and the growing realization of him (and those around him) that he's actually a girl inside. The writing, characterizations, and pacing...

    To manually clear query history, delete query.txt in your Share folder. To disable the feature, you can set the read-only file attribute on query.txt in your Share folder. This will result in an annoying messagebox every time you enter a new query, but it doesn't cause any problems.

    How to convert mdf file to avi

    Megu IV: Choose one of four presets -> choose a working directory -> name your project -> choose MP3 or AAC -> choose MP4 or MKV -> Go Handbrake, on the other hand, is an exercise in frustration. There are a lot more settings you have to adjust besides source and filename, in order to fix...

    How to convert mdf file to avi

    Methinks you haven't tried my program. Megu IV is much easier than Handbrake, since it's already pre-configured and targeted specifically for interlaced NTSC DVDs. No need to fiddle with a million knobs and buttons. It doesn't even require installation... Waste of time, IMO. There is no...

    How to convert mdf file to avi

    Your .MDF file is a container. More precisely, it's an image file (just like an .ISO file.) Inside of it is a DVD-Video disc. Assuming you're trying this is a porn/idol DVD-Video source, you will get the best results by using the Megu IV guide, which is linked to in my signature. It's painless...

    Torrent attachments are now mandatory

    vBulletin automatically blocks new threads without torrents, so the only warnings & infractions we'll be handing out are for those people that try to cheat the system. Like for example, someone that posts a new multi-torrent thread but fails to attach all of the relevant torrents. Please...

    Torrent attachments are now mandatory

    From now on, all new torrents posted on Akiba-Online must be directly attached. If you have a new thread with multiple torrents, you must attach ALL of the torrents. Doing so is very easy, just follow the numbers: Thank you

    I've had enough...

    I wrote a little feature that blocks new threads without torrents, and gives a spiffy multilingual error message as well. Shows up both when you "Submit changes" and "Preview changes". It's currently activated on all of the IV and AV sub-forums. This should take make life a lot easier for...

    There's nothing the staff would like more than to add a rule to force torrent attachments. The problem is that it's very difficult to moderate. I think the best solution would be a vBulletin mod that only allows new threads in certain subforums if they have a .torrent attached. I don't...

    Try playing your ripped assets with a different media player. If you see the exact same problem, then you can assume that your ripping program is at fault. In that case, re-rip the disc. Recommended free ripping programs are DVD Decrypter and DVDFab HD Decrypter. The former does not handle...

    Former U15 idols who now do hardcore?

    That's the exact opposite what you said earlier: "there's a difference between artistic stuff and stuff that is produced for sexual gratification. I've seen both in Japanese U-15." Merriam-Webster's definition of pornography is "the depiction of erotic behavior intended to cause sexual...

    Former U15 idols who now do hardcore?

    As far as I know, you're wrong. It is not legal to possess videos that were also illegal before passage of the 1999 law. In other words, videos of (simply) naked underaged children are OK. Videos of children engaging in explicitely sexual behaviors (masturbation, blowjobs, etc...) are not legal...

    Those wavy lines on Ai's shirt aren't rainbows nor are they dot crawl. Those two types of artifacts are caused by imperfect composite transfer of video signals. You will almost certainly never see either on an idol DVD. No, you see the wavy effect because the lines on the shirt are finer than...

    There's no "high Q" OneClick profile. Are you talking about the "[IV] Best Quality" OneClick profile? "Normally?" I'm not sure what you mean. The "[IV] Best Quality" OneClick profile uses the "x264: [IV] High Quality" preset. You can look and adjust the preset by pressing the Config button on...

    user limited to seeding only??

    That message is sent to you by a tracker. Akiba-online doesn't run it's own tracker. Find out which one it is, visit their site, and ask there. You probably are trying to access a private torrent using an account that has been limited because of excessive abuse.

    Problem: save JPEG is now save Attachment

    We recently made some changes to how attachments and album pictures are served to browsers. I would suspect the problem is one of your FireFox addons or GM scripts. Restart Firefox in Safe Mode to confirm my suspicion.
