A mobile phone with these video capabilities is easy for a youth to get hold of (legitimately at any rate), whereas a high 8 recorder is too expensive new, too much trouble to acquire off an auction site, and too bulky to carry around. Mobile phones are the basis of this happy slap idea which stupidly is aimed at youths (though frankly I doubt the mental integrity of whichever adults created the entire happyslap idea or anyone who actually participates).

so you honestly think that if video cell phones hadent hit the market yet, there wouldent be thugs roming the streets screwing with peple for the thrill?

Kids that age don't even need freaking cells phones and second, they need to be locked up forever.

If that girl had a cell phone, or an emergency beeper, she could have called the cops.

Better yet, if she had an AK-47, she could have shot the ******s.

Just something to think about other than the BAN EVERYTHING AND LET THE GOVERNMENT RUN YOUR LIFE mentality.

I didn't imply that; of course there would be thugs on the street still, however the advent of such portable video technology allows those people to reach a new low by distributing their criminal behaviour and influencing others (happyslaps in general promotes thuggish behaviour)

so, lets not let them get any lower, but allow the core of the problem to persist.

what sort of logic is that?

The core of the problem is that there are people with abnormal or maladaptive behaviour in society, and that is a problem that will always exist; i'm not getting into a discussion about how to make the world a better place, i'm just talking about what happyslaps promote and\or reflect of society.

holy crap your multiplying

thats fine, all im saying is that thinking cell phones and there video capabilies haev any true reflection on crime and how/why its commited is ridiculous

This is England, guns are illegal, our normal cops don't even carry guns and they manage fine.

well ya see, thats the problem right there! This **** doesn't happen here cause those ****** kids would get shot in the face, if they are lucky. Elsewise they'd jsut get the **** beat out of them/

um, no. they would be arested. the only time an officer threatens a suspect with his fire-arm is when his life is in emediate danger

and i dont think a gruop of misguided teenagers would do that.

id rather have a batton and beat the **** out of them then kill them.

death is the easy way out

So your solution to 'happy slapping' is 'happy shooting'? Or, do you just want the good guys to have the guns? Because, you have to say that first, or the bad guys will get the guns too. (But they probably won't listen, even if you say the guns are just for the good guys. That's why they are bad.)

No, its jsut science. Both sides are afraid of being f*cked up, so neither do it. That's why the cold war ended, and that's why this doesn't happen in the US

So, everyone living in fear is a desired result? Also, are you saying that the US doesn't have gang wars where people happily shoot each other? The US has over 10,000 gun deaths a year - guns are not going to help the UK, they would only make it a lot worse. This is a problem with western society, not the UK in particular - the US has its own different problems to deal with.

I don't like the way the UK is going, but copying the US is certainly not a way to go about easing our problems. :no:

    • I was using searxng for about a year , self hosted, but results were starting to timeout and eventually it became unusable so I switched to degoog. Much better for my needs, more polished and add-ons like maps and calculations etc

    • Hello, I am not as familiar with AMD CPUs as I am with Intel's, but as I understand it, that's a mid-range CPU from about three years ago.  I would think it to be fine for everyday casual-type use.  A larger SSD might be better, but with storage prices these days that's a decision that has to be carefully thought about.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.5 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.5 changelog: Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows (DirectSound and ASIO) Fixes several crashes and memory corruption issues Fixes opening several headerless files at once, which previously dropped all but one Improves batch export by suggesting and remembering the destination folder Fixes accented and non-Latin characters in VST plug-in and compressed-archive file names Adds zstd compression support and updates the archive library Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
