Yearly special needs to be done. Also, remakes are ok, i guess, but we really do need some Phailhaus again as opposed to reshooting old videos.

To those of you who haven't seen LRR's old episodes...
Go. Watch them. Now. Do yourself a favour.

Even if you just click the Random Video button over and over and over and over and over, it'll be worth your time.
After unskippable was added here I went back and watched as many as I could. But for some reason a lot of the older ones come up with error messages and I can't watch them.

I really enjoyed the return of the Linux skit. Graham saying the word "perogies" makes me giggle for no reason.

Speaking of perogies... I bake them. >_>

This really shows how much you guys have improved over the years! Good job! Still very funny! And the new camera you're using is beautiful!

Yeah, it does that for some of the videos, but for the majority, it shouldn't.
Sometimes, there's the option to watch the video in a different format - ie Quicktime, etc. Sometimes that helps.

Not to be a killjoy and all, but I much prefer the original. Mostly because it's the first LRR video I watched. and it was funny as hell xD. Plus the jokes were delivered better.

Erm...

Funny as always, but this is just Installation Anxiety again, isn't it? I mean, it's exactly the same.

Is there something I'm missing here? Do tell.

I mean, I'm not complaining, it's still a great episode (my first, actually) but I'm just not actually sure why you're remaking them.
I think the script is identical except for the reference to Endless Ocean (not sure what the game was in the first version). I was a little dissapointed when it turned out to be a copy, I was expecting it to at least have some new stuff in there besides the science t-shirt.

Still, it's LRR. And everyone loves LRR.
Also, PS2=PS3 now.

I never saw the original, so this was fresh -- and funny -- for me.

Although, Paul: If installing the heart and lung drivers were all that was needed to get Graham back on his feet, then I have serious questions about the quality of the drivers you're using, as they appear to be implementing policy.

As you know, drivers are only supposed to provide mechanism, not policy. Heart rate and volume, breathing rate and volume, those are highly dependent on whatever activity is taking place, not to mention the platform on which they're running, details that the kernel doesn't -- and in most cases shouldn't -- know. Policy is supposed to be provided by user-space, often by running daemons.

It's possible that heartd and breathed noticed new heart and lung devices coming online via dbus events and applied policy immediately, but that begs the question why /etc/heartd.conf and /etc/breathed.conf weren't setup to modprobe the drivers on startup.

On the other hand, if heartd or breathed aren't running, and Graham is just running with the driver defaults, then don't let him do anything at all strenuous, or he could easily pass out.
