VideoSift's SOPA/PIPA Response (Sift Talk Post)

joedirt says...

SOPA has been dropped. It won't be voted on until next year's session if they bring it up again. SOPA is legitimately dead. They will come back with lobbyists and sneak this through when the media isn't paying attention. Not sure is PIPA will be voted on.

There should still be a boycott though, if only to show them the power of the internet.

I wish we could use boycotts like this to accomplish something like withdrawing from Iraq...

Cop Flips Out When Told He Can't Search Car Without Warrant

This is fake and I believe on snopes as it is at least a year old...

WTF people.. It probably was already sifted as fake stupid video. I believe the cops got into trouble for making this video.

Puppy Totally Pumped About Eating

joedirt says...

Holy crap people are stupid. Go watch the video... It defies common sense and gravity.

You can tell it is being lifted in the air because of the way the feet are. If it was a balancing issue, your feet would be on the ground one second, then in the air. In every case here, the dog brings his feet forward everytime they pull up on the string around his stomach.


Want to argue, well go look at the video.. If the spine was a rigid board pivoting around front feet, that isn't the case here, as the head and front feet stay perfectly still. Well ok, you say, he is just doing a front hand stand, well think about doing one yourself, you have to bend your legs and kind of spring into the air. This isn't happening in the video, someone is simply lifting the dog.

Dennis Kucinich v. Glenn Greenwald on Citizens United

joedirt says...

WTF, you are insane, "rape the [C]onstitution"?

Do you know what a corporation is? It is a financial instrument, a pact between society and investors to encourage investing while keeping a person's house and finances shielded from being put at risk by creating products.

It has nothing to do with anything in the Constitution. It REALLY has nothing to do with electing politicians. The only thing that has happened in the last 30 years is that corporations now control elections and put more money into campaigns than individuals. Corporations have realized they can make more profit by buying politicians which reward them with favorable laws and regulations and kickbacks nad contracts at the expense of citizens who suffer from the corporate greed.

Look at the BP oil spill or Enron or corn subsidy or sugar tariffs or bank bailouts or GM bailouts or mortgage crisis. In general, corporations best interest goes directly against a health society and the health and prosperity of citizens.

Another example of goverment waste: plowing invisible snow

joedirt says...

There couldn't be a corrupt local gov't this bad just racking up overtime hours by plowing imaginary snow. All I can think is that they are doing the router before 2 feet of snow to check for any obstructions or areas that are too narrow or might damage the plow or property.

The other thought is that they might have put accurate GPS trackers on them and they are mapping out the streets for ability to replay the route in the snow. But in reality I can understand why they are ruining the plows and concrete scraping them up.

See I'll take science any day. Clueless fundamentalist believe "Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water."

Guess what guy, maybe in your bronze age view of the world this is true (as God has so commanded) but in my modern >15th century world, you can get fresh water from a salt water spring.

Uh oh. Is the Bible wrong?

Skydiver Survives Mid-Air Collision And Impact With Ground

joedirt says...

>> ^chilaxe:

Why didn't his secondary work?
If they performed rescue breathing better, would he have not passed out?


his secondary is the blue thing caught up with the other guys chute. im guessing when the other guy cut loose it stayed wrapped up on him (lines around legs or body), so when he cut away, he was still caught. his secondary deployed into the mess.

he did loose consciousness at end of video.

Skydiver Survives Mid-Air Collision And Impact With Ground

joedirt says...

His did cut away his chute. (he had a parasail that got cut away) when he is looking up at the end, the blue thing is the secondary.

I always wonder why it's ok to watch a video where the guy is a quadriplegic, but if he died it is snuff. The only reason he lived is someone giving him rescue breathing, I'm guessing he is still on a ventilator.
