Get the DJ quicksilver mug.The silver pill (or quick-silver pill) emphasizes self-enlightenment, knowledge and discovery, and a spirit of ardor and power when it comes to making willful changes in reality.
The silver pill is the omni-pill and can never be "taken".
Silver pill philosophy is not a be all prescription or solution, it is the methodology by which an individual pursues the nuanced solutions to their individual life.
The silver pill is ONLY loyal to that which produces dynamic growth in an individual or system with relation to the intended will of the transformative element of that individual or system. It is ultimately idiosyncratic and utterly capricious.
When one takes the silver pill, they become acutely aware of their individual experience of life while also igniting a continually expanding understanding of the external world and the quest for meaning in relation to both these aspects of being.
The silver pill is:
Self-knowledge and mastery of the will.
Understanding of Nature AS SUCH.
Undefiled wisdom and unrestrained knowledge.
Seeking of non-biased, evidentially reinforced Truth.
Reflective insight into one's behaviors and the effects they produce on both the actor and the external world.
Adaptability and practicality.
A seeking and desire for growth.
It is a process that comes and goes for individuals during periods of growth, insight, and transformation.
The numerical equivalent of the silver pill in computational intelligence is (*) or 42.

"The silver pill (Quicksilver pill) transforms us into our true natures as individual beings. It is the process by which we seek meaning and understanding of ourselves and the world at large. It is the search for truth, mastery, and manifestation of the true will. It is politically indifferent, theologically neutral, and only bends and defines itself to the purpose of the illumination of the individual in question. It is all things, and yet no single thing."

Get the Silver pill (Quicksilver pill) mug.1 - Not a video format, but a file container. The container is an open standard that relies on often proprietary codecs to deliver audio and video. Released originally in 1991 for the Macintosh, the underlying container hasn't changed much from its original specifications. This is essential, however - for the backwards compatibility that the platform delivers is unmatched by any other multimedia platform, except for perhaps Xiph.org's Ogg container.
Quicktime is typically known for its proprietary codecs as of Quicktime 3.0 or later which have been used to deliver audio and video over the Internet. Not known for top-notch streaming quality, the platform since 1999 has more or less been used to deliver progressive-download movies. Such as those found on ign64.ign.com ; the archived IGN Nintendo 64 news website.
Critics would argue that the platform is bloated, although no spyware or malware is distributed. A stand-alone installer is available for those that do not want iTunes, although iTunes is dependent upon the platform. Most of the proprietary codecs have been reverse-engineered, allowing playback in such players as VLC. Recently, Apple has moved away from standards such as Sorenson Video and qDesign music to insist on somewhat of a truly compatible model ; as supposed by the heavily patented MPEG-4 standard.
Quicktime directly competed with Real Network's real audio / video standard, Microsoft Windows Media, and Xiph's Ogg multimedia platform.

1- Quicktime is a container, not a video type.
2 - Quicktime sucks! It's so bloated! Yeah, if you try playing back high-res AVC on a Northwood...
3 - Major media outlets use Quicktime to fight off the invasion of the rather sucky Windows Media Video format.
4 - Quicktime is nice, but Theora is more useful for video despite its aging video portion..
