    "Here's a little hint of how Dumbledore is gay: he was treasuring a knitting magazine"

    How does liking knitting make you gay?

    @Stndsh0: The gay virus requires a hard substrate to survive on, but requires wool as a food source. Consequently, it thrives on knitting needles.

    Of cousre men, being men, will inevitably pretend to sword fight with said knitting needles and inevitably stab themselves and each other, leading to infection. Thusly, they turn gay.

    Women don't stab each other with knitting needles, hence the incidence of lesbianism is not statistically correlated to incidents of knitting in the female population.

    @jepzilla: That makes sense now, thanks. What would happen if a man stabbed a woman with a knitting needle or vice versa? Would we just get two married people?

    Nah. Michael Gambon said he used to be gay. Yeah. "Used to be". He was forced to quit because it made his eyes water.

    @Golf_Nut: He was in a play during that time called Equus. Given the subject matter and what was asked of him as an actor, I'd imagine he's doing things other than HP already that sound a bit different than what he has done in the HP movies.

    Could someone explain to me exactly what's going on? I don't want to sound like Kal-El here, but this seems oddly insignificant to be live-blogging about. I'd just like to know what makes this more significant than other blu-ray releases or Harry Potter films.

    @Jason Chen: The counterargument is that it's only the third ever Blu-Ray BD-Live Q&A because such things are kind of silly. To each their own, though, and I could definitely see how such a thing would fit in on this site. It's an interesting concept, I suppose.

    @Killjoy: Unless you're using the jailbroken version of Qik, Ustream seems like the better deal because, unlike the non-jailbroken Qik, Ustream allows you to stream LIVE and over 3G. Of course this is only if you have a 3GS. On the other hand the jailbroken version of Qik will work on an iPhone 3G. Something else to consider is whether or not you already have an account/friends on Qik or Ustream.

    I haven't messed with the jailbroken version of Ustream so I can't comment on that.

    @Kiamat: That's great info, except that I didn't ask my question correctly. I run Android on my phone so both Ustream and Qik will stream live video for me. What I'm interested in is which service has better website features, less lag and better bandwidth.

    Despite the official "warranty is not transferable" policy, Microsoft still fixed the 360 I purchased used when it RROD'd. They'll make an exception for things that are their fault.
