Attention Tom Ewing

I apologize for doing this, but I don't know if my mails are bouncing or not and I need to know why I can't upload anything to FT, so please contact me. Of course, if anyone wants to use this thread as an excuse to call Tom's attention to something, feel free. ;-)

I think it's a space thing, which I really need to get sorted out. If you FTP in and delete all the files in the /log/ file (in the folder above /docs/) that usually does the trick. If you can't get into the FTP at all then it's a problem with my host. Let me know!

― Tom, Tuesday, 4 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Tom are you fancy!?!

― Mike Hanle y, Tuesday, 4 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

No Mike.

― Tom, Tuesday, 4 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm sorry, but that exchange almost killed me laughing. I cannot breathe. I was answering the phone when I read that, you bastards.

― Ally, Tuesday, 4 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

ATTENTION NED RAGGETT!

I've sorted out the logfiles situation so hopefully it'll work. Otherwise e-mail all the files to me and I'll put them up in the morning.

― Geoff, Tuesday, 4 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I feel loved.

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 4 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I think Tom is fancy.

― Ally, Tuesday, 4 September 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

No Geoff.

Ally, that is your lookout.

Yo Tom! I noticed that the F*c*s G*ou* might be going up soon, I just wanted to check if you got my email from a few months back about not including some of the sillier comments I made at the live focus group? (context and all that).

Tom Ewing's CD-nostalgia prediction piece is very special. The highlight of your Friday.

lol, welcome to 1964, when PAL was introduced. how does it continually both startle and offend you that the entire world is not the USA?

― challopian rubes (sic), Tuesday, 13 September 2011 06:25 (fourteen years ago)

because he reviewed it in an American webzine?

― James Ferraro Boyz (Whiney G. Weingarten), Tuesday, 13 September 2011 06:31 (fourteen years ago)

how does it continually both startle and offend you that the entire world is not the USA?

also the answer to this is "because i live in america"

― James Ferraro Boyz (Whiney G. Weingarten), Tuesday, 13 September 2011 06:33 (fourteen years ago)

so you complain about it on a non-American messageboard *

*RIP PTW TBF

― challopian rubes (sic), Tuesday, 13 September 2011 06:39 (fourteen years ago)

this dvd wont play on american tvs, wtf

Because the rest of the world went multi-region for their DVDs, and the USA are "rest of the world? what's that?"

The ignorant-American stereotype is always lol but idg the attacks here.

― Autumn Almanac, Tuesday, 13 September 2011 06:51 (fourteen years ago)

That's because you're Belgian obv.

― challopian rubes (sic), Tuesday, 13 September 2011 06:55 (fourteen years ago)

I read Whiney's post as "why won't our TVs play these things"

― Autumn Almanac, Tuesday, 13 September 2011 07:05 (fourteen years ago)

Obviously the fact that this won't play on American DVD players makes it entirely worthless as an artistic project and not worth talking about at all, let alone to Pitchfork's 100% American readership.

― Matt DC, Tuesday, 13 September 2011 08:13 (fourteen years ago)

1) it's super-easy to hack dvd players ime
2) or play them via vlc
3) english magazines review criterion dvds which, shockingly, are not region-free

― all the small zings (history mayne), Tuesday, 13 September 2011 08:17 (fourteen years ago)

haha come to think of it i've reviewed region-2 dvds not only for an american magazine, but for an american magazine you can't buy in england and mostly isn't online

― all the small zings (history mayne), Tuesday, 13 September 2011 08:18 (fourteen years ago)

wait a minute. this is an american message board

we may as well go out speaking the king's, old boy

― hipstery nayme (darraghmac), Tuesday, 13 September 2011 14:24 (fourteen years ago)

It's Canadian-Scottish right now. Us South of the border types don't get a look-in.

― Matt DC, Tuesday, 13 September 2011 14:42 (fourteen years ago)

well at least some of us are used to that,

― hipstery nayme (darraghmac), Tuesday, 13 September 2011 14:45 (fourteen years ago)

Sorry Whiney - didn't have access to an American TV! TBH I used my computer to watch the DVD anyway.
