You could do it by listening for *two* impulses, or an impulse followed by some other noise (the thing getting hit)... dunno how hard that would be though.

I imagine that there is a whole lot of overlap between the acoustic profiles of gunshots and other impulse-type sounds.

Ultimately, a gunshot and a backfire both sound like "impulse convolved with some transfer function depending on the local environment".

A gunshot has a very wide frequency spread. Basically, take the Fourier transform of a delta function...

There have always been big disparities in wealth, and that in itself doesn't indicate anything pathological about a society.

So, wait. Was this really just a

"YBHT. YHL. HAND. -Uncle Sam (pbuh)" thing?

Hm, I can't seem to get to skidrow's website. Are they slashdotted?

This crack allows actual singleplayer, right? This is relevant to my interests since my ISP is so lossy (~20% packet loss) that I can only play SP.

but ... but ... but pirates!

Seriously, wtf. D2 sold gajillions of copies and had working single player and LAN. You could be sitting out in the middle of the desert with a solar panel and a netbook and play with your friends.

Huh, so a Windows keyboard works, but an Apple-brand one doesn't? So much for that legendary "it all just works!" thing. And look above -- another guy can't get them to work, either.

I've not had this problem with any Windows or Linux system. Ever. Hell, from the questions Ubuntu asks, it'll manage to support a Klingon keyboard layout if I happen to have one lying around.

Nope. Just iTerm, so it's still a fail. iTerm, incidentally, is better than the shitty terminal that comes with OSX, but you can smash the stack in it easily: running cat on a big binary file by accident results in ALL of your open terminals dying. From the errors thrown as it dies I bet there's a buffer overflow exploit lurking there.

Also, it handles the death of ssh very very badly -- tabs just freeze. Since it's a Mac and turns off every time you close the lid, with no way I can find to make it stay on, this happens all the time.

They in fact don't even scroll the viewport half the time. In Firefox, for instance, they just do nothing.

Hell, I spend most of my time in ssh, anyway (talking to clusters). Scrolling the viewport doesn't get me to the bottom of my file in vi.
