I’d like to remind everyone that any problems they have with torrent files can probably be fixed with a quick visit to my Torrent Software Pack post. It will display what you need to download, and view movies/series/anime if you can’t get them working properly.

I just finished watching Scrapped Princess (rocked by the way), and went over to Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto, aka Somedays Dreamers and realized the sound was all fucked up, both in bsplayer, TCMP, and even VLC had difficulties although VLC would atleast play it the muxing would fuck up, sound was choppy and subtitles got “stuck”.
I did some research and found out that atleast the 4 first episodes uses some wonky AC3 sound filter. So if you want to fix that issue, download CoreAAC DS Filter, and run in your favorite media player. That should do the trick.
Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto, aka Somedays Dreamers can be downloaded here. It’s pretty cool, yo.

Oh my god, I fucking found it. A C++ BitTorrent client! YEEEES! Fucking Java and Python can eat my ass with sugar on top now.
BitLord, It’s not Java or Python so it’s not slow or gay! I have tested it, and although it shows some HTML ads in a frame, it still owns Azureus and any BitTorrent python derivatives. Fo sho!

From forevergeek.com:
Here’s something for broadband people that will really speed Firefox up:
1.Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:
network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading.
2. Alter the entries as follows:
Set “network.http.pipelining” to “true”
Set “network.http.proxy.pipelining” to “true”
Set “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once.
3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0″. This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives.
If you’re using a broadband connection you’ll load pages MUCH faster now!
You need a client to download Torrents, and there is a wide variety of clients to choose from. I like BitTornado, because it’s so cozy and minimalistic. But mostly, people use Azureus Java BitTorrent client or ABC (Yet Another Bittorent Client). However, since both Python and Java is crap (python is slow, actually even moreso than Java, which is an astounding feat to accomplish), you should go for one of the kickass C++ core BitTorrent clients like BitComet or BitLord (this is what I use). You choose whichever you like.
Some of the Torrents on this site are videos, and some of these videos are Dual Audio, subtitled or both. Some video players just suck in general, require crappy codec packs that are always infected with fucking trojans or something. For that reason, I recommend VLC (Formerly VideoLAN Client). It just works, has all codecs built-in, and it’s cross platform.
Sometimes I suspect Firefox has alot of memory leaks:
They should fix this, Firefox is my favorite browser, hate to be unable to use it just because I’m downloading mass pr0n imagery for you, the visitor of my site. Because that would suck and I’d have to use something crappy like MyIE2 or Opera. I cannot be without tabbed browsing.

INIReader was something Beltira (Joey) and I made because he thought it would be a good way for me to learn more about Collections and Dictionaries in .NET, and indeed it was.
What this does is to read and parse INI Files and divide them into Sections and Name Value pairs. This works sort of like an XML Deserializer I guess, but I actually had less problems figuring how to make this INI Parser than I did with XML, and every data storage expert agrees; XML sucks the big one.
I realize there are several other ways, and countless wrapper classes for .NET that uses the Win32API for this, but COM = slow. 5 times slower to be exact. And I realize XML has a deeper hierarchy, but alot of times you really don’t need it. This is fast, simple, with no fuss.
All you have to do, is to include the IniReader.cs class file, and instantialize the INIFile class. From there it should be pretty smooth sailing.
UPDATE: No demo included, just source and compiled DLL file.
