Live concert recordings on USB sticks – last100

In July, I blogged about a new company planning to sell recordings of concerts on USB sticks as you leave the venue. Since then I’ve actually found articles proposing a similar idea that dates back to 2004, although I believe it was a slow starter then. Nowadays, USB sticks have surpassed floppy disks and even CDs as the most popular way to physically move data around, plus they have a much higher capacity than they used to, and are more physically robust.

Wow someone is finally trying to make money off of what the MP3 scene has been doing 4EVA! record straight from the mixing board on live shows and upload that shit. Maybe throw in some bonus content like interviews for the crazy obsessed fans or limited edition USB keys, some people will always buy and some will just pir8 away.

YouTube wants to depose Stephen Colbert, Jon Stewart – CNET News.com

Best quote from the article:

“One question Google could ask is whether anyone at Viacom downloaded clips of Colbert or Stewart’s shows to YouTube.”

I’m going to go with a yes, I doubt people at Viacom go in the back and fish through Beta tapes to pull a clip when it’s 1000x easier to pull that shit up on YouTube. And why do they always bitch about people wanting to watch more of their show, just make a damn clip site Viacom, christ.

How a fake word ended up in a perfectly cromulent string theory paper

Jebediah: [on film] A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man.
Edna: Embiggens? I never heard that word before I moved to Springfield
Ms. Hoover: I don’t know why. It’s a perfectly cromulent word.

Here is the word in a rather different context:

While in both cases for P anti-D3-branes the probe approximation is clearly not good, in the set up of this paper we could argue that there is a competing effect which can overcome the desire of the anti-D3s to embiggen, namely their attraction towards the wrapped D5s. Hence, also on the gravity side, the non-supersymmetric states would naively be meta-stable.
