ok, i'm not into sports and i've never posted here, but northwestern university just had a great game last night against ohio state. osu was expected to win (they're ranked 6), but we somehow maintained the lead and won. we rushed the field, went to party at a pub downtown, and then there was an afterparty with all my friends at a friend's place.

did anyone catch the game? or does anyone care? haha.

go purple!

i really dont care about sports at all, i think theyre a waste of time, but im partial to OSU b/c im from Columbus and my parents and sister went there... they should have won, yes, but thats typical OSU for you... choke when theyre expected to win... i think they get cocky... their game against marshall they only one by a fieldgoal at the last second.. stupid.

but osu lost to us, which is really funny, since we're not that good.

they had a huge fanbase on campus. it was nuts. like a thousand reds and maybe a few hundred of us purples. at least that's what it looked like to me while i was pigging out at the tailgate party.

brochaos, michigan will beat us for sure. :D

a lot of the top 15 is overrated. WVU and LSU come to mind. it's too early in the season, they are just being ranked off how they finished last year.

Well, LSU is now #24. And after this coming weekend against Florida they will be out of the top 25 ;)

I wish you guys hadn't beaten them...I'm at Wisconsin, and frankly the LAST thing we need next week is to face a recently beaten Ohio team that STILL wants our blood on the floor. Hell, its bad enought we have to play Purdue the week after, you guys just made our life harder. Bah...

With the way WVU has been playing, they are overrated. We are top 5 playing level when our damn team shows up, but they haven't showed up yet. Look at it this way- WVU played like total ass and still had a chance to win the game vs VT. Lots of things need to be done regarding team discipline, its rediculous.

Oh well. I'll take the Big East BCS bid.

But yes. Watching tOSU get beat was one of the sweetest sights ever.

I went to the game and the atmosphere was just amazing. I'm pretty sure there were more OSU fans at the stadium than NU, but I thought we made our presence felt.

Offtopic, what are you doing now dreamz? I thought you were done and graduated?...

i'm still around. i got a job in skokie, so i'm working there during the week, but since i still live in evanston (hinman/main), i go up to campus every week to hang out with my friends. you should come by my place sometime, man. :)

    • BetterMediaInfo 1.0.0 by Razvan Serea BetterMediaInfo is a modern, open-source graphical user interface for MediaInfo, designed to improve metadata inspection workflows for audio and video files. It extracts and presents technical parameters such as codec profiles, bitrates, resolution, frame rate, stream ordering, and container-level attributes in a structured, readable layout. The interface is built with clarity and responsiveness in mind, supporting drag-and-drop functionality. It preserves the full feature set of the MediaInfo library while making the data easier to parse for users working in media management, encoding validation, or post-production environments. In short, BetterMediaInfo takes the power of MediaInfo and makes it much easier to use. Whether you're checking video quality, verifying audio settings, or just curious about a file's details, it gives you clear, organized info without the clutter. Requires Microsoft Edge WebView2, which is included in most Windows versions. BetterMediaInfo 1.0.0 changelog: Added an Image stream table to the card view and detail view, including type, color space, resolution, and size fields. Added View settings to toggle Image stream tables in card view and detail view. Added BatchMkvMerge to the welcome page with localized descriptions and a GitHub link. Added a portable 7z archive to the Windows release artifacts. Improved first-run language selection by detecting the system language and saving it to configuration. Updated Italian translations.

    • We wrote about it here https://www.neowin.net/news/browser-vendors-pen-open-letter-to-microsoft-saying-enough-is-enough/ the open letter itself is here https://browserchoicealliance.org/open-letter/
    • Someone forgot to mention EDR in the title ? I think I will not click anymore on the articles written by this author. All are click bait.
    • Browser vendors including Chrome, Firefox, Brave, and Vivaldi have jointly written an open letter to Microsoft saying enough is enough regarding Edge being pushed on Windows users without consent. Microsoft makes it difficult to change the default browser, promotes Edge throughout Windows 11, and has made the uninstall process unnecessarily complicated compared to other apps. Does anyone have more details on what exactly the open letter demands and whether any regulatory action is being considered? Also curious whether this could lead to antitrust investigations similar to what happened with Internet Explorer back in the day. Would love to hear from anyone following this closely.
