Nowhere Fast

Lying in your bed and on a Saturday night
You’re sweatin’ buckets and it’s not even hot
But your brain has got the message
And it’s sending it out
To every nerve and every muscle you’ve got

You’ve got so many dreams
That you don’t know where to put ‘em
So you’d better turn a few of ‘em loose
Your body’s got a feeling that it’s starting to rust
You’d better rev it up and put it to use

And I don’t know how I ever thought that I could make it all alone
When you only make it better
And it better be tonight
And we’ll fly away on those angel wings of chrome in your daddy’s car
Waiting there for you tonight
I’ll be there for you tonight

Even if you don’t have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you’re ready to roll
And even if you don’t have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you’re ready to roll
And your speed
Is all you’ll ever need
All you’ll ever need to know
Darlin’, Darlin’-

You and me we’re goin’ nowhere slowly
And we’ve gotta get away from the past
There’s nothin’ wrong with goin’ nowhere, baby
But we should be goin’ nowhere fast

Everybody’s goin’ nowhere slowly
They’re only fighting for the chance to be last
There’s nothin’ wrong with goin’ nowhere, baby
But we should be goin’ nowhere fast
It’s so much better goin’ nowhere fast

Ah…

Stalkin’ in the shadows by the light of the moon
It’s like a prison and the night is a cell
Goin’ anywhere has gotta be heaven tonight
‘Cause stayin’ here has gotta be hell
Dyin’ in the city like a fire on the water
Let’s go runnin’ on the back of the wind
There’s gotta be some action on the face of the earth
And I’ve gotta see your face once again

And I don’t know where I ever got the bright idea that I was cool
So alone and independent
But I’m depending on you now
And you’ll always be the only thing that I just can’t be without
And I’m out for you tonight
I’m comin’ out for you tonight

Even if you don’t have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you’re ready to roll (ready to roll)
Even if you don’t have anywhere to go
You go down on the pedal and you’re ready to roll
And your speed
Is all you’ll ever need
All you’ll ever need to know
Darlin’, Darlin’-

You and me we’re goin’ nowhere slowly
And we’ve gotta get away from the past
There’s nothin’ wrong with goin’ nowhere, baby
But we should be goin’ nowhere fast

Everybody’s goin’ nowhere slowly
They’re only fighting for the chance to be last
There’s nothin’ wrong with goin’ nowhere, baby
But we should be goin’ nowhere fast
It’s so much better goin’ nowhere fast

Godspeed
Godspeed
Godspeed
Speed us away!

Godspeed
Godspeed
Godspeed
Speed us away!

Godspeed
Godspeed
Godspeed
Speed us away!

(We’re goin’ nowhere fast!)

(Ah…)

Algunos la recuerdan por un capítulo de Bones, otros por la canción de los muppets, yo la verdad por los créditos finales de Perros de Reserva…

Bruder bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime,
His sister had anudder one she paid it for de lime.

She put de lime in de coconut, she drank ‘em bot’ up
She put de lime in de coconut, she drank ‘em bot’ up.
She put de lime in de coconut, she drank ‘em bot’ up
She put de lime in de coconut, she call de doctor, woke ‘im up,

Said «doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take?»
I said «Doctor, to relieve this belly ache,»
I said «Doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take?»
I said «Doctor, to relieve this belly ache.»
Now lemme get this straight,

You put de lime in de coconut, you drank ‘em bot’ up,
You put de lime in de coconut, you drank ‘em bot’ up,
You put de lime in de coconut, you drank ‘em bot’up,
You put de lime in de coconut, you call your doctor, woke ‘im up,

Said » Doctor, ain’t there nothing’ I can take?»
I said, «Doctor, to relieve this belly ache.»
I said «Doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take?’
I said, «Doctor, to relieve this belly ache,»

You put de lime in de coconut, you drink ‘em bot’ togedder
Put de lime in de coconut and you’ll feel better,
Put de lime in de coconut, drink ‘em bot’ up,
Put de lime in de coconut and call me in the morning.»

Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo.
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo.

Brudder bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime,
His sister had anudder one she paid it for a lime.
She put de lime in de coconut, she drank ‘em bot’ up
She put de lime in de coconut and called de doctor, woke ‘im up.

And said, «Doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take?’
I said, «Doctor, to relieve this belly ache.»
I said «Doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take?»
I said, «Doctor, now lemme get this straight,

You put the lime in the coconut, you drink ‘em bot’up,
Put the lime in the coconut, you drink ‘em bot’ up,
Put the lime in the coconut, you drink ‘em bot’ up,
Put the lime in the coconut. You’re such a silly woman.

Put a lime in the coconut and drink ‘em bot’ together
Put the lime in the coconut, then you’ll feel better.
Put the lime in the coconut, drink ‘em both down,
Put the lime in your coconut, and call me in the morning,

Woo–ain’t there nothin’ you can take?
I say, woo–to relieve your belly ache,
You say, well woo–ain’t there nothin’ I can take?
I say woo–woo, to relieve your belly ache,
You say yow–ain’t there nothin’ I can take,

I say wow–to relieve this belly ache,
I said «Doctor, ain’t there nothing I can take,»
I said, «Doctor, ain’t there nothing I can take,»
I said, «Doctor, ain’t there nothing I can take,»

Put the lime in the coconut and drink ‘em both together,
Put the lime in the coconut, and you’ll feel better,
Put the lime in the coconut and drink ‘em bot’ up,
Put the lime in the coconut and call me in the morning.

Yes, you call me in the morning, You call me in the morning,
I’ll tell you what to do if you call me in the morning.
I’ll tell you what to do if you call me in the morning.
I’ll tell you what to do if you call me in the morning.
I’ll tell you what to do and if you call me in the morning
I’ll tell you what to do.

Actualicé mi Ubuntu Linux a 11.10 y el Totem ya no me descarga los subtítulos

El título no es bastante descriptivo???

Actualicé mi Ubuntu Linux de la versión 11.04 a la 11.10 y resulta que entre otros muchos cabos que dejaron sueltos, el reproductor de películas Totem no me descarga de manera automática los subtítulos de las series que veo.

Ésto se debe a un bug en la versión que viene por default en la 11.10, y que en lo que mandan la actualización que lo arregla se puede resolver a mano y rápido (tú sabes, esa «característica tan bonita» de linux que si algo falla lo puedes arreglar tú mismo y que a todos nos encanta, NOT!)

Sólo hay que abrir el archivo /usr/lib/totem/plugins/opensubtitles/opensubtitles.py (claro que con permisos de root)

Buscar alrededor de la línea 567 el siguiente código

! subFile = fp.replace('', False)
! subFile.write(self.model.subtitles)
! subFile.close()

Y reemplazarlo por:

! subFile = fp.replace('', False, 0, None)
! subFile.write(self.model.subtitles,None)
! subFile.close(None)

Guardar, cerrar Y con esto debe funcionar de nuevo la descarga de los subtítulos.

Now, Andy did you hear about this one
Tell me, are you locked in the punch
Andy are you goofing on Elvis? Hey, baby
Are we losing touch
If you believed they put a man on the moon, man on the moon
If you believe there’s nothing up his sleeve, then nothing is cool

Now Andy did you hear about this one
Tell me, are you locked in the punch
Hey, Andy are you goofing on Elvis? Hey, baby.
Are you having fun
If you believed they put a man on the moon, man on the moon
If you believe there’s nothing up his sleeve, then nothing is cool

Here’s a little agit for the never-believer (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Here’s a little ghost for the offering (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Here’s a truck stop instead of Saint Peter’s (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Mister Andy Kaufman’s gone wrestling
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Now Andy did you hear about this one
Tell me, are you locked in the punch
Hey Andy are you goofing on Elvis, hey baby, are we losing touch
If you believed they put a man on the moon, man on the moon
If you believe there’s nothing up his sleeve, then nothing is cool

Ahora le toca al BluRay!

Mi laptop tiene unidad de Bluray (no es por presumir pero…) y por lo que voy viendo, reproducir un bluray no es tan fácil en linux, cuestiones de DRM y cosas así, que generarn una llave que encripta los datos del disco y no lo puedes reproducir hasta que… en fin…

La única forma que hasta ahora me ha funcionado es esta aplicación: MakeMKV

http://themediaviking.com/2010/bluray-linux/ (el post original)

http://www.makemkv.com/forum2/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=868 (Cómo instalarlo en ubuntu)

Según esto, la aplicación rippea el disco y lo comvierte a formato MKV, pero también lo puede enviar por medio de streaming a la internet, así que el truco es:

1. Hacer el stream del bluray con makemkv
2. Utilizar VLC o algún otro programa similar para reproducir tu streaming
3. Prepararse unas palomitas y sentarse a verlo

Lo probé y funciona, al menos con mi disco de Halo Legends… ahora hay que probarlo con los 7 blurays de harry pott… digo con la colección de rambo…
