Using the preference “extensions.customizegoogle.misc.filtercolor” in about:config you can control
the color of a filtered URL. If it’s not there, you’ll have to create it. The default color is grey (”#aaaaaa”).
This way you can make it disappear (”#ffffff”) or stand out (”#ff8000″).

First: the blind and vision impaired have no business inflicting their requirements on a technology designed to present information visually. They need to adapt to reality and not visa versa.
Swirly text deciphering does not intelligence test.
What is the resultant color when that of a strawberry and banana are combined? Orange.
That’s a better CAPTCHA.. applied worldly knowledge.
A more entertaining version has no directions, no cue for robots, though easily defeated by OCR, but only if widespread and only if implemented the same way. Apply deformations as desired.

Jango, Imeem,
It would be entertaining to have an application that would twist a video and its sound into noise in such a way that the file could still be played in any media player, and be “decrypted” with that application.  Steganography for video I suppose.  … Preferably without the loss of transcoding / recoding.
This technology could be further extended to real time transforms of in home wireless video systems like x10, or 2GHz video relay kits.  Keep an eye on your home without anyone else peering in.
Here’s an interesting paper on a similar tangent: http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/330112.html
But that doesn’t get us any closer to posting crypted video to the myriad of free video hosting sites :\
This MSU VirtualDub Filter hides other data in video: http://compression.ru/video/stego_video/index_en.html
I don’t want to hide data in video, I want to render the video unwatchable until decrypted inside its respective container.

Tired of finding stuff listed as broken, “not working”, or “as is” with no assurance of functionality, too? REQUIRING ALL sellers tick a box assuring functionality on penalty of suspension would allay the issue.
NOT-checking the box would force the item into a separate category of brokenness and NOT show in standard search results

Condition used? Obviously used to death. wrong infernal category, cretin

first version: http://Himself.wordpress.com/2007/11/10/installing-firefox-dom-inspector-without-having-to-custom-install-firefox/
new fun version:
Repackage this debian binary into an XPI to install to firefox 2
(instructions assume Windows XP, but will work for any OS essentially)
download this debian binary: http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/web/firefox-dom-inspector
don’t have debian? don’t worry. you’ll need 7zip
open firefox-dom-inspector_2.0.0.11+0nobinonly-0ubuntu0.6.10_all.deb (or whatever is current) in 7zip
or right-click-drag firefox-dom-inspector_2.0.0.11+0nobinonly-0ubuntu0.6.10_all.deb to 7zFM.exe
extract: data.tar.gz
open: data.tar.gz
browse to: .\usr\share\firefox\extensions\
extract the folder: inspector@mozilla.org
(for santiy sake check the RDF)
yup… that’ll do nicely
using your zip capable archive tool zip the newly extracted inspector@mozilla.org folder
(correction: zip contents of the folder)
change the zip extension to xpi
drag the newly created xpi into firefox to install the DOM Inspector extension
or download DOM Inspector for firefox2: inspector@mozilla.org.xpi
http://www.zshare.net/download/66631420154ad3/
or
http://rapidshare.com/files/84948437/DOM-inspector-for-firefox2.xpi.html

for a slightly less complicated unpack the zip in this directory
http://ftp-mozilla.netscape.com/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/latest/contrib/
unpack: inspector@mozilla.orgzip contents to xpi

I’ve tried netflix. But forget them. They never gave me “as many movies as I wanted”. I’m not interested in paying for as many movies as netflix deems me worthy to receive. I now get as many movies as I want, with not only no late fees, but no pesky returns, and no annoying processing- or waiting list.
hahahaha I win

What’s better than a great idea for a TV series? They same idea, of course? Sure…
requires XP or recent windoze OS
Three simple options:
For option 1 download this, unpack it somewhere, run WinFF, add media files (in batch) select output format, click start
http://rapidshare.com/files/14825881/winFF_build7760.rar.html
wait for completion, close command window, done. rejoice.
For option 2 the process is similar but requires toggling more switches and settings. Option 3 provides far more tweaking options than option 2.
If this can play the FLV you can convert it:

The Sagacious Himself SWF cache method
load firefox ( BrowseHappy.com/why/ )
load myspace musician’s page
clear firefox cache
find url in source that starts as http://lads.myspace.com/music/musicplayer.swf?…
OR use Live HTTP headers to fish it out
load the whole gobbledegook url into a new tab
start song
let “cache” finish…. this will unfortunately take about as long as it does to play entire song
open firefox profile cache folder (below assumes XP. consult kb.mozillazine.org for yous OS path)
%appdata%\mozilla\[yourProfileName]\cache
or whatever is defined for “browser.cache.disk.parent_directory” in user.js in profile
find cache file between 1- and 15 megs. This is the mp3 you want. It will most likely be the largest, most recently modified file.
– alternatively enter about:cache?device=disk into location bar, look for the entry with the largest data size, click it, and file on disk will reveal the filename and location. PLUS while your token is valid you can click the URL labeled key and download the mp3 to your defined download path. It still has a funky name, but it’s “ready to play”.
it will likely resemble: http://cache[NN]-music[NN]-myspacecdn.com/[NN]/std_*.mp3?…
– or if you are especially lazy install Cache Viewer, load cache viewer, search for mp3, double click (or r-click save-as) ..
copy to appropriately named mp3 in suitable location
done
repeat for each song you want. the SWF url will expire. reload musician’s page in firefox, extract new SWF url, paste to new tab, click song, repeat
works. testest. retested. happy enough
please obey laws unless you have an opportunity to screw with verizon or toshiba
P.S. I am not a myspacer - it uses the worst of the least of technologies poorly. Using a DEA I created a myspace account that I have since not touched. Triviality of trivialities.
——————————————–
———- NOTES to SELF ————
—————————————
unfortunately to play this game one must signup for a myspace address :sigh:
2prong.com to the rescue
- view band page
- find gobbledegook url starting as http://lads.myspace.com/music/musicplayer.swf
- load into new tab
- start live HTTP headers extension
- reload tab
- find url starting as http://mediaservices.myspace.com/services/media/musicplayerxml.ashx?b=
to find band
- load that full url in new tab
– get XML result
interesting results include number of song plays today, total plays, downloads, and other fun things.
hey myspace: munging does not a secure site make
- look for open tag
- find title of song you want to download: Title=”Tonight”
- find download url (in inventively named variable): durl=
:gasp: here comes the hard part
- paste the contents of that sans quotes to a new tab
- wait for download to complete
- play in Foobar2000 or your favorite non-sucky media player
Alternatively, view SWF music player
fire up live http headers
enable capture
click song title to play
generate a new token with
http://mediaservices.myspace.com/services/media/token.ashx?b=[bandIdNumber]&s=[songIdNumber]
grab last url in capture log… substitute in new token.. paste new url to new tab to download or feed to fav download manager
enjoy song
myspace, the suck site that it is, is using firefox to sop up tons of VM space so more myspace another time….
or
http://mediaservices.myspace.com/services/media/musicplayerxml.ashx?b=[bandIdNumber]&s=[songIdNumber]
example:
http://mediaservices.myspace.com/services/media/musicplayerxml.ashx?b=83918838&s=16686495
you’ll need both the NEW token AND the durl.. and combine them manually unless you want a GreaseMonkey userscript
http://cache07-music01.myspacecdn.com/49/std_7354097489537489.mp3?bandid=83918838&songid=16686495&token=143543_435345344&p=something&a=0
compare token in
http://mediaservices.myspace.com/services/media/token.ashx?b=83918838&s=16686495
to token in (thats used in url)
http://mediaservices.myspace.com/services/media/musicplayerxml.ashx?b=83918838&s=16686495
need to get clean filepath to feed to &p=
this is borken at the moment.. more testing to make it work for everyone everytime
if this is enough to encourage you to act foolishly or break laws… please.. go commit suicide now
