My "control panel" states Average number of posts per day 0.05...
That's not very impressive, now is it?
Guess what? I'm gonna be using MP3/TS pretty heavily the next few days. I've got 15-20,000 MP3s to sort out...
Oh no.. I actually counted them. A *.mp3 search of all local drives, shows 20791 files found. .. That's 110,846,823kB. Or 110GB.
I'm thinking MP3/TS has it's work cut out.

Nice to see you back on the board again Fredrik. Well, now is as good a time as ever to improve that post-count.
And I'm glad to hear you'll be giving some work to Mp3/TS.
Just let us know if you run into any problems and I'm sure we can work them out.

Hi Magnus.
Glad to see you're still around, and not resting on your laurels!
Will we be seeing a 3.06 in the future?
Best regards,
Fredrik

Of course you will see new versions in the future!
Just keep the suggestions and bug reports coming...
Posted by: Fredrik Lovik on April 12 2003,14:11
I barely dare make feature suggestions. I always get the reply "Oh, it can already do that. Here's how to do it...."
Are you getting Easter off from work/school, Magnus?
Best regards,
Fredrik

Yeah, I really hate when that happens to me too, I'm very sorry about that.
Hmm, maybe if I delete this part of code... ---------------------QUOTE-------------------

I have my own company, so I get off whenever I like... Hmm, that didn't feel like it came out quite right... Anyway, why?

Really? Many female employees, perhaps?
Why? No reason, really. The more time off you have, the more attention MP3/TS gets, perhaps?
Posted by: Magnus Brading on April 12 2003,15:43
No female employees, only me and my (male) partner.
Now that you mention it, maybe I should start a brothel or something instead, hmm...
And let's just say that there is a loooooong list of things to do in the hypothetical event of a free moment, but I'll get down to the "release update of Mp3/TS" entry eventually, don't you worry...
Posted by: Fredrik Lovik on April 12 2003,15:54
No brothels! That will definately take your attention elsewhere!
You run your own company? May I guess software development?
Posted by: Magnus Brading on April 12 2003,16:13
I run two companies actually, one for software development and one for computer security consulting. The consulting is the main income though, which is why the software development also sadly gets less time.
And ok, I'll put my brothel plans on the shelf for a while, just for you then.
Posted by: Fredrik Lovik on April 12 2003,16:22
Good job on starting, and running two companies. It really sounds like a lot of work. Being your own boss has many advantages, and also some disadvantages. For me, a 8 to 4 job as a service-tech will be enough for a while longer.
Perhaps I should start that brothel, for some extra income??
Posted by: Magnus Brading on April 12 2003,16:32
Maybe we can come up with some kind of international operation here. I've heard that cross-country prostitute trafficing has become quite popular here in the Nordic countries lately, so maybe we should jump the train while there's still money to be made in this business?
Posted by: Fredrik Lovik on April 12 2003,16:42
"cross-country prostitute trafficing"
Why am I picturing badly dressed women on skis now??
By the way, what would we be calling our new business venture? BradingBrothel?
Posted by: Magnus Brading on April 12 2003,18:28
I already knew that "cross-country" was not the correct expression, but I didn't have time to come up with anything better. "Inter-state" would probably have been better, now that I gave it a few seconds more. And sure, that's a great name, I'll go register the domain right away!
Posted by: Fredrik Lovik on April 12 2003,18:31
lol, doubt you want to waste money on a domain like that.
By the way, if we keep posting to this thread like this, we might reach over 1000 posts before the end of easter!
Posted by: Magnus Brading on April 12 2003,19:23
Yep, 9 more posts and you've got your second star (not to mention a brothel or two)...
Posted by: Fredrik Lovik on April 12 2003,19:35
9 more, huh?
What am I then? Board superfan?
Wow, second page, and everything.
Well Magnus. I know you run a company or two, but what other information will you share with all the forum users about yourself?

Well, maybe I shouldn't get too personal here, but if you ask me something, I just might answer it anyway.
Also, I know you're just asking me that to get your 8 posts, you don't really care about me, you careerist bastard. I feel so dirty...
Posted by: Fredrik Lovik on April 13 2003,15:06
Ouch, busted.
Yea, I'm actually just using you for my own personal gain. I feel so ashamed. Then again, what if I really am curious? Or perhaps I'm a stalker, trying to obtain as much information I can about you? That way, I can come visit in the middle of the night, and harass you.
Be afraid, be very afraid.
Posted by: Magnus Brading on April 13 2003,19:26
Why don't you just tell us how the large scale tagging is going instead, and maybe I'll let you stalk me later, ok?
Posted by: Fredrik Lovik on April 13 2003,21:02
DOH!
I got so involved with the forums here, that I forgot all about the tagging!
No really, it's going slowly, but it's going well.
I might take you up on that stalking offer some time.
