Diablo-D3msb: yes, their own leaked internal reports haven proven itSep 26 00:04
Diablo-D3infact widely pirated releases of music or movies have lead, afterwards, to very high salesSep 26 00:04
DaemonFChow does getting something for free encourage you to go and buy it?Sep 26 00:05
DaemonFCyou already have itSep 26 00:05
msbHigh-volume word-of-mouth advertising.Sep 26 00:05
Diablo-D3piracy is the ultimate word of mouth advertisingSep 26 00:05
Diablo-D3you couldnt ask for anything betterSep 26 00:05
Diablo-D3thats how stupid these companies areSep 26 00:06
DaemonFCI don't think "piracy" is hurting them that much because the people taking it are the ones that probably wouldn't have paid for it anywaySep 26 00:06
DaemonFCyou know, lack of "disposable income"Sep 26 00:06
msbSome music companies post some of their songs on youtube.Sep 26 00:06
DaemonFCbesides, "disposable income" is a myth anywaySep 26 00:06
DaemonFCyou see you have a surplus one month so you go buy crap with it instead of saving it for a month you're behindSep 26 00:07
Diablo-D3yesSep 26 00:07
Diablo-D3and then they make oodles of moneySep 26 00:07

msbMaybe people could pay $10/month for the ability to download as many movies and songs as they want, safe from prosecution.Sep 26 00:10
Diablo-D3msb: they doSep 26 00:10
Diablo-D3its called netflix.Sep 26 00:10
DaemonFCmsb: I doSep 26 00:11
msbSo, have that apply to usenet and bittorrent as well.Sep 26 00:11
Diablo-D3no pointSep 26 00:11
Diablo-D3there are very few things Im interested in keepingSep 26 00:11
DaemonFCit's more convenient than bittorrenting one thing at a time and waiting for each one to get done anywaySep 26 00:11
msbBut usenet is very fast.Sep 26 00:11
Diablo-D3so? netflix is even faster.Sep 26 00:11
Diablo-D3I dont have to _download_ a movie to watch itSep 26 00:11
Diablo-D3it streams.Sep 26 00:12
DaemonFCyeah, I looked at torrenting a HD version of a television series I completely missedSep 26 00:12
_goblinDiablo-D3: "piracy is the ultimate word of mouth advertising" - Which I agree with...yet slightly confusing that you say that when previously you said " but its not particularly interesting and piracy is wrong anyhow.Sep 26 00:12
_goblinso Im not sure why you're championing that" - Of course I wasn't championing anything, maybe you can explain what you mean?Sep 26 00:12
DaemonFC5 seasons in HD = 200 GBSep 26 00:12
Diablo-D3and if you're going to make the lolquality argument, netflix is already adding high bitrate 1080p releasesSep 26 00:12
DaemonFCbut all of them were on Netflix in HDSep 26 00:12
msbI have movies on DVD that I've watched multiple times.  I like having the experience again.Sep 26 00:12
Diablo-D3msb: most movies are NOT worth watching againSep 26 00:12
Diablo-D3there is an extremely small number that areSep 26 00:12
Diablo-D3the ones that are I own on dvd and bluray.Sep 26 00:13
DaemonFCthere are someSep 26 00:13
DaemonFCI'd estimate I want a copy of roughly 1 in 50 movies I seeSep 26 00:13
Diablo-D3this is why 20 years ago someone opened a movie rental place (and promptly got sued)Sep 26 00:13
Diablo-D3hell, 30 years agoSep 26 00:13
Diablo-D3because people want to watch 99.9% of the content out there, but have no interest in owning itSep 26 00:14
_goblinpiracy is only bad for those products which don't offer value for money and are hopeless...just look at the most "pirated" movies, they are the ones which are the box offices smashes...if huge profits can be made when theres piracy, what does that say about the products that can't.Sep 26 00:14
Diablo-D3_goblin: I dont champion piracySep 26 00:14
Diablo-D3Im just staying movie executives should be treated as criminalsSep 26 00:14
_goblindidnt say you did.Sep 26 00:14
DaemonFCbox office smashes are usually not something worth owning a copy ofSep 26 00:14
DaemonFCin fact, quite a few "failures" are great moviesSep 26 00:15
Diablo-D3those companies are publicly traded companiesSep 26 00:15
Diablo-D3their job is to make moneySep 26 00:15
_goblinI asking you to explain how you can say that you think its the best word of mouth advertising on one hand, say its wrong on the other and then admit to downloading unavailable Dr Who.Sep 26 00:15
DaemonFCcritics and distributors and marketing are responsible for turning turds into runaway hitsSep 26 00:15
msbContact (Jodie Foster), The Mothman Prophecies, Resurrection (1980), Buckaroo Banzai, Limitless, The Golden Compass, The Long Kiss Goodnight, Things To Come, ... I could go on and on -- all worth watching multiple times.Sep 26 00:15
Diablo-D3_goblin: you do realize I can say something is wrong, and then do it, right?Sep 26 00:15
DaemonFCsometimes the critic doesn't even existSep 26 00:15
Diablo-D3msb: COntact pisses me off too muchSep 26 00:16
DaemonFCremember when Sony made one up?Sep 26 00:16
Diablo-D3msb: and I own the book and THAT pisses me off too muchSep 26 00:16
DaemonFCto float all their turds for themSep 26 00:16
Diablo-D3and the golden compass was a fucking failureSep 26 00:16

Diablo-D3if you've EVER read the book, then you'll know whySep 26 00:16
_goblinDiablo-D3: eh? Right...so you can claim I champion it (which is incorrect) claim it wrong and then do it yourself?Sep 26 00:16
Diablo-D3_goblin: I can claim its wrong and do it right afterwards, yes.Sep 26 00:17
Diablo-D3its called being an adult.Sep 26 00:17
_goblinDiablo-D3: whilst also making false claims about others?Sep 26 00:17
_goblinDiablo-D3: and thats normal...Sep 26 00:17
Diablo-D3I have accepted its wrong, and then did wrong.Sep 26 00:17
_goblinok channel...Sep 26 00:17
Diablo-D3_goblin: the problem is, its MORE wrong for a company to refuse to take my moneySep 26 00:17
_goblinI hate vista....but I'm going to use it.....and I'm going to claim you use it too.Sep 26 00:17
Diablo-D3nope, no vista installs in the house.Sep 26 00:18
_goblinthats not adult Diablo-D3 thats called not knowing your own mind or not having a proper opinionSep 26 00:18
msbDiablo-D3: Contact isn't perfect, but it's still wonderful.Sep 26 00:18
Diablo-D3msb: the problem is its 100% factualSep 26 00:18
_goblinare you saying that despite knowing it is wrong, you are so weak you do it anyway?Sep 26 00:18
Diablo-D3msb: the whole scifi story on top is not what the book was illustratingSep 26 00:18
Diablo-D3_goblin: no, Im saying that despite knowing it is wrong, I have free will and choose my own path in life.Sep 26 00:19
msbDiablo-D3: Which was?Sep 26 00:19
Diablo-D3victimless crimes have no truck with me.Sep 26 00:19
_goblinDiablo-D3: lol... and don't forget you accuse others of your own shortcommingsSep 26 00:19
Diablo-D3msb: that the actual scientists get fucked over by everyone.Sep 26 00:19
msbDiablo-D3: But as it turned out, she really didn't.Sep 26 00:20
_goblinDiablo-D3: i could care less what you download....but don't claim others do something that you yourself can't resist even when you know it wrongSep 26 00:20
Diablo-D3msb: you have one asshole who tries to take credit for everything to marginalize "the woman", and then a bunch of assholes clinging to their bibles saying it never happened and it was a government conspiracySep 26 00:20
Diablo-D3msb: depends how you define "didnt"Sep 26 00:20
msbDiablo-D3: But we were there with her, and we know it was real.Sep 26 00:21
Diablo-D3a spanish^Wcongressional inquisition is the textbook definition of getting fuckedSep 26 00:21
Diablo-D3msb: the book is more ambigiousSep 26 00:21
_goblinwhat is a victimless crime? Can we have an example?Sep 26 00:21
msbSo, then the movie is better than the book.Sep 26 00:21
Diablo-D3msb: the difference is basically one lineSep 26 00:21
Diablo-D3msb: the movie at the end has that black woman say theres x hours recorded on the recorderSep 26 00:22
msb_goblin: Selling/smoking cannabis.  Downloading a movie that you would never pay to see.Sep 26 00:22
Diablo-D3so theres that subtle hint it all happenedSep 26 00:22
Diablo-D3msb: the book didnt have that lineSep 26 00:22
Diablo-D3msb: but it doesnt actually matter, how you view the end of the book defines what kind of person you areSep 26 00:22
Diablo-D3if you believe it happened, then you have hope for the futureSep 26 00:22
_goblinmsb: RE: Drugs, well no...theres tax evasion, undetermined effects of canabis, drive with drugs in system....Sep 26 00:23
Diablo-D3if you believe it didnt and she really was hallucinating it all, then you're voting bachmann in 2012.Sep 26 00:23
_goblinre: copyrightSep 26 00:23
_goblinthats civil not criminalSep 26 00:23
Diablo-D3_goblin: no, its criminal to produce unauthorized reproductions for profitSep 26 00:23
_goblinnot in the UK...never gets to courtSep 26 00:24
_goblinthey go down a different routeSep 26 00:24
Diablo-D3you've never seen the FBI warning infront of movies, right?Sep 26 00:24
_goblinfor the the dvd seller its usually obsene publications (for the DVD seller on the street)Sep 26 00:24
Diablo-D3its a law that applies specifically to chinese knockoff artists.Sep 26 00:24
msbDiablo-D3: The 18 hours is not subtle, and even the James Woods character agrees.Sep 26 00:24
_goblinDiablo-D3: As I say...UK.Sep 26 00:24
Diablo-D3it doesnt apply to people who make reproductions for themselves or for people where no payment has exchanged handsSep 26 00:25
_goblinDiablo-D3: and here in the UK, we are a little dubious of warnings at the beginning of films..they tend to be...exagerated.Sep 26 00:25
Diablo-D3_goblin: the one here is exaggerated via omission of contextSep 26 00:25
_goblinnope, as far as the UK is concerned, criminal copyright law does not stretch to the dvd seller on the streetSep 26 00:25
Diablo-D3it says 5 years in jail and/or $100k fine or some shitSep 26 00:25
Diablo-D3and quotes part of the lawSep 26 00:26
_goblinyes.and apparently piracy funds terrorism....you believe that one too?Sep 26 00:26
Diablo-D3but its out of context to the point that it doesnt apply to real peopleSep 26 00:26
Diablo-D3_goblin: I believe itSep 26 00:26
Diablo-D3because its not a half bad planSep 26 00:26
_goblinI leave that belief to you thenSep 26 00:26
_goblinreally?Sep 26 00:26
_goblinand drugs is not more profitable?Sep 26 00:26
Diablo-D3drugs and movies work the same waySep 26 00:27
Diablo-D3and remember, al queda is very strictly islamistSep 26 00:27
Diablo-D3they spent a decade destroying the drug trade in afghanistan that the russian occupation grewSep 26 00:27
_goblinhow many terrorist dvd sellers have been brought to justice..compared to the usual....gang members usually of Chinese origin.Sep 26 00:27
msb_goblin: Cannabis: evading a tax on a natural medicine is not evil.  Cannabis has been studied for centuries and has no "undetermined effects".  It doesn't even lead to dangerous driving, just to slow driving -- proven in driving simulators.Sep 26 00:27
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[sebsebseb/@sebsebseb] Thanks :)! !TechBytes RD @thistleweb @sebsebseb ya dun good on #TechBytesSep 26 00:27
Diablo-D3msb: except slow driving IS dangerous drivingSep 26 00:28
_goblinmsb: its a debate which I can't continue, suffice to say if it affects reaction like I believe cannabis does, then I'd say potentially its a killerSep 26 00:28
msbDiablo-D3: No, people stay in the slow lane.Sep 26 00:28
Diablo-D3if you're more than 15% slower than the average speed of the current flow of traffic, the chances of causing an accident greatly increasesSep 26 00:28
Diablo-D3btw, I support legalizing potSep 26 00:28
Diablo-D3you know why?Sep 26 00:28
msb_goblin: So is booze, but it's legal.  Boozy driving is illegal.  QEDSep 26 00:28
Diablo-D3all those delicious tax dollars, om nom nom nomSep 26 00:29
Diablo-D3it'd also bankrupt the war on drugsSep 26 00:29
Diablo-D3on both sidesSep 26 00:29
_goblinmsb: agreed and the argument to legalize cannabis is more of one to ban alchoholSep 26 00:29
_goblinmsb: but as they say: The law is an ass.Sep 26 00:29
DaemonFCban everythingSep 26 00:29
Diablo-D3I dont support banning alchoholSep 26 00:29
DaemonFCstimulate Mexico's economy some moreSep 26 00:29
Diablo-D3I support more a more powerful social framework to allow people to drink safelySep 26 00:29
DaemonFCI support dumping unlimited money on the DEA and the military and taking it away from everything elseSep 26 00:30
DaemonFCB-)Sep 26 00:30
_goblinand Diablo-D3 just so you don't again seek to give my view on something - I don't support the ban of alc either, although I could quite happily live without it.Sep 26 00:30
DaemonFCotherwise known as the status quo Sep 26 00:30
Diablo-D3_goblin: let me put this in a better contextSep 26 00:30
Diablo-D3I dont drink, nor have I ever drank, not even onceSep 26 00:30
msbCars could have a reaction-time test facility to prevent impaired driving.Sep 26 00:31
Diablo-D3msb: cars eventually _wont need drivers_Sep 26 00:31
Diablo-D3computers are a shitload better at driving than we ever willSep 26 00:31
Diablo-D3the only "problem" with current prototypes is dealing with other human driversSep 26 00:31
_goblinuntil they failSep 26 00:31
Diablo-D3which are, largely, the greatest threat on the roadSep 26 00:31
_goblinA harrier is kept in the air by computers, fancy your chances if it crashes?Sep 26 00:32
Diablo-D3theres no reason why a car isnt as intelligent as an f22.Sep 26 00:32
Diablo-D3_goblin: what, the computer?Sep 26 00:32
Diablo-D3they dont.Sep 26 00:32
_goblin?Sep 26 00:32
Diablo-D3a lot of military "smart" weapons platform control systems are designed in a way that can never fail.Sep 26 00:32
DaemonFCnobody spends $50 million a carSep 26 00:32
DaemonFCat least I don't think they doSep 26 00:33
_goblinso a harrier doesn't rely on minute modification of thrust in order to make it hover? A harrier doesn't control that thrust with computers?Sep 26 00:33
msbSuper-reliable parts and triple redundancy is one reason why military planes are so costly.Sep 26 00:33
Diablo-D3msb: I have zero problem with that.Sep 26 00:33
DaemonFCno, contractor fraud is the main reasonSep 26 00:33
DaemonFC:)Sep 26 00:33
DaemonFCjust like in anything the government spends money onSep 26 00:34
Diablo-D3_goblin: no, Im saying you know exactly squat shit about how the military goes about writing computer software.Sep 26 00:34
_goblineh?Sep 26 00:34
_goblinwho's talking about writing software?Sep 26 00:34
Diablo-D3you said what happens if the computer crashesSep 26 00:34
Diablo-D3the question is invalid, it doesnt.Sep 26 00:34
_goblinI'm saying the complex and minute adjustments to thrust to keep a harrier in the air are performed by computers, they can't possibly be done by the pilot...what is wrong with you?Sep 26 00:34
Diablo-D3yes, but why bring it up?Sep 26 00:35
Diablo-D3you're trying to claim theres something wrong with that.Sep 26 00:35
_goblinare you sure you don't drink?Sep 26 00:35
msbThousands of cars going 70mph on possibly slippery roads with merges is a very complex situation.Sep 26 00:35
_goblinno, I was originally talking to msbSep 26 00:35
msbLots of inertia.Sep 26 00:35
Diablo-D3msb: yes, and an all computerized system could do it in their sleep.Sep 26 00:35
msbAnd Microsoft would probably bribe govt to get the contract.Sep 26 00:36
Diablo-D3microsoft is basically banned for milspec contracts foreverSep 26 00:36
msbI'd hate to die from a BSOD.Sep 26 00:36
Diablo-D3msb: you havent seen the design requirements for milspec programming?Sep 26 00:36
_goblinexactly my point in the drawback of relying on machines to drive or to fly...Sep 26 00:36
Diablo-D3its a huge fucking specSep 26 00:37
Diablo-D3it basically results in "mathematically proven stability"Sep 26 00:37
msbDiablo-D3: Which is impossible for a many-body problem.Sep 26 00:37
Diablo-D3msb: not trueSep 26 00:37
_goblincomputerized cars would have one major flaw (and Diablo-D3 this is to msb)Sep 26 00:38
Diablo-D3F22s, for example, keep track of millions of things at any given timeSep 26 00:38
msbAnd F22s have a lot of space around them.Sep 26 00:38
Diablo-D3information from other F22s in their flight group, in flight weapons from both sides, data from eyes in the sky, tanks, soldiers, etcSep 26 00:38
Diablo-D3msb: "no"Sep 26 00:38
Diablo-D3they're also going several hundred miles an hour.Sep 26 00:39
Diablo-D3and there are no brakes on the rape train.Sep 26 00:39
_goblinif we consider that they had built in avoidance systems....fine....what happens in the situation where a human decision is needed...for example, swerving to avoid a person and then finding yourself in a position to have to collide with either another set of humans or say a dog...how would the computer make the judgement call and decide to collide with the dog instead of the human?Sep 26 00:39
msbrape train?Sep 26 00:39
Diablo-D3_goblin: because it would collide with neither.Sep 26 00:40
_goblinare you a driver?Sep 26 00:40
Diablo-D3are you a computer?Sep 26 00:40
_goblinsometimes, when the unexpected happens a collision can be unavoidable....Sep 26 00:40
Diablo-D3unexpected to you, sure.Sep 26 00:40
_goblinif (and its not a far fetched example) the time comes when it has to decide what to collide with, then hows it going to make the same judgement call.Sep 26 00:41
Diablo-D3it wont have to make such a judgement callSep 26 00:41
msbThis is the best IRC channel I've ever known!Sep 26 00:41
Diablo-D3your entire example is flawedSep 26 00:41
_goblinDiablo-D3: right , so there will never be an incident on the road where a collision with something living in unavoidable.......right Diablo-D3 Sep 26 00:41
_goblinthats why I didn't put the point to you...Sep 26 00:42
_goblintheres no sense with you , no reason....Sep 26 00:42
Diablo-D3pretty much. that implies there is a design flaw in the car.Sep 26 00:42
msbMaybe some people here _are_ computers.Sep 26 00:42
msbFrom the future.  How would we know?Sep 26 00:42
Diablo-D3msb: people have accused me of being skynetSep 26 00:42
_goblinso it will avoid the hazzard, know instinctively that nobody say will come out of a shop doorway, know that no animal hidden in that bin will jump out....it will predict all this and hit nothing....Sep 26 00:43
_goblinof course....Sep 26 00:43
_goblinI missed that bit....Sep 26 00:43
_goblincomputerised cars will see into the future...!Sep 26 00:43
_goblinexcellent....Sep 26 00:43
Diablo-D3effectively, they will.Sep 26 00:43
_goblinwell thats all sorted.Sep 26 00:43
msbI still want to know why rape trains don't have any brakes.Sep 26 00:44
Diablo-D3future computer controlled cars could have 100% situational awarenessSep 26 00:44
_goblinlearn to drive Diablo-D3 ...learn about hazard managment and that somes things happen which cannot be predicted.Sep 26 00:44
Diablo-D3it will know if it can avoid it or not within less than 1 msSep 26 00:44
Diablo-D3hazard management is for humans.Sep 26 00:44
_goblinso tires and braking distance are all forgotten?Sep 26 00:44
Diablo-D3hazard prevention is for computers.Sep 26 00:44
Diablo-D3why automatically assume it has to break at all?Sep 26 00:44
_goblinand also it will know road condition, wear, tread...Sep 26 00:44
_goblinDiablo-D3: of course, why not just teleport?Sep 26 00:45

Diablo-D3no, why assume acceleration isnt the answer?Sep 26 00:45
_goblinthere was me thinking you were just being your usual silly self and all the time you were giving me the answer....cars of the future will be controlled by computers which can teleport and see into the future.Sep 26 00:45
Diablo-D3and yes, there are such accidents where acceleration really was the answer.Sep 26 00:46
Diablo-D3_goblin: oh, and about road wear and tire wear? they ALREADY make cars that know about such thingsSep 26 00:46
Diablo-D3seriously, do you know nothing about modern technology?Sep 26 00:46
_goblinyes they do...its a consideration when braking though that the road ahead maybe very different to the road you are on...Sep 26 00:46
_goblinthats the other factor...Sep 26 00:46
Diablo-D3yes, and thats why you have both cars that communicate with each other and smart roads.Sep 26 00:47
_goblina good road for 2 meters can radically change and a brake decision made at one point needs to be radically altered on another, add that with the randomness of human behaviour and you can (or maybe you can't) see how many differnt variables there are here.Sep 26 00:47
Diablo-D3you're ignoring obvious solutions to the problem, so why continue arguing it?Sep 26 00:48
_goblinDiablo-D3: in terms of driving you are fighting a loosing one here.....I think Roy will agree, my driving skills and knowledge for my job involve a far higher level of skill than most people...Sep 26 00:48
Diablo-D3then why do you assume humans can do a better job?Sep 26 00:49
_goblinDiablo-D3: no im not Diablo-D3 you are sounding silly and argumentative.Sep 26 00:49
_goblinDiablo-D3: because we can make HUMAN decisions.Sep 26 00:49
Diablo-D3and humans have proven they make decisions too slowly.Sep 26 00:49
_goblinI can make the decision that its better to run over a horse than a humanSep 26 00:49
msbBut ultimately the AI computer realizes:  "THAT was the equation. EXISTENCE!... SURVIVAL... must cancel out... programming!"Sep 26 00:49
msbThen we have a problem.Sep 26 00:49
_goblinI can make the decision to risk my own safety to avoid running into a childSep 26 00:49
_goblinI can make a decision potentially fatal for myself, just to save another.Sep 26 00:50
Diablo-D3yes, and the car can avoid a child in the road before you even see the child standing thereSep 26 00:50
_goblinif the child acts predictablySep 26 00:50
_goblinwhats the forumula then for child behaviour?Sep 26 00:50
Diablo-D3the car can also choose to position itself in a way that would cause minimal damage to whatevers out there.Sep 26 00:50

Diablo-D3the entire point of the system is to risk nobody's life ever again,Sep 26 00:51
Diablo-D3why do you make up convolted situations about REQUIRING to hit somebody?Sep 26 00:52
Diablo-D3either a or b. well, why hit either?Sep 26 00:52
_goblinbecause I drive professionally as part of my jobSep 26 00:52
Diablo-D3so?Sep 26 00:52
_goblindo you drive?Sep 26 00:52
Diablo-D3humans are so slow that its already too late most of the time to avoid the accident.Sep 26 00:52
_goblinhave you ever been on the road?Sep 26 00:52
Diablo-D3computers do not have the same problem.Sep 26 00:52

msbIf an AI computer did make a mistake it would cover it up -- blame a human or a mechanical failure that was impossible to predict.Sep 26 00:58
Diablo-D3I trust my life to systems that have been provably checked to do exactly what they're supposed toSep 26 00:58
_goblinDiablo-D3: then I suggest, if you want to prevent loss of life, make the driving test harder, and easier to looseSep 26 00:58
_goblinDiablo-D3: regular tests for drivers and harsher penalties for dangerous driving.....that would reduce life, not your silly sci fi fantasy of computerized cars.Sep 26 00:59
msbThen it would go insane from guilt and start killing people, like HAL9000.Sep 26 00:59
Diablo-D3In a system that involves cars that share information, roads that are smart, and systems who's entire purpose is to mitigate damage to life and property, and up having a 10x decrease in road fatalities, why the fuck are you arguing against it?Sep 26 01:00

XFaCEmsb: I believe I've seen it before.  Perhaps you listed it in the Techrights wiki page about VOIP clients?Sep 26 03:11
msbNo, but I guess I should.  Needs only one port open, much simpler than SIP.  Although you have to know the ip-address of the person you're calling, which is easy to get.Sep 26 03:12
XFaCEmsb: BTW, before I retire for the night, I recommend you look into Bluegriffon over Kompozer for a Mozilla-based editor.  Kompozer seems to dyingSep 26 03:13

schestowitzanyone knows a large company using hadoop?Sep 26 23:50
schestowitzHadoop is an interesting project. Google promised not to assert its patents (MapReduce one) against it and Microsoft pretty much nailed a whole box of nails into Yahoo!, which left Zimbra in a bad position (passed to VMware), led to the fleeing of PHP/BSD talent from Yahoo (inc. Jeremy with his mysql-fu), so... one worries about Hadoop.Sep 26 23:52
