Wow. I'd forgotten how impressive a speedrun is.

Quake was when deathmatch was fun. So many Uni classes missed because of this game.

Netrunner post some real news.


I know of no source of news that you and I would both agree is legitimate.

That's literally one of the dumbest quotes I've ever heard. Good call attributing it to the original author.

Apple Cult is bigger than the "Tea Party" that's pretty sad. Also you didn't actually watch the video...didya.

Fake Videos!
Video's that make a claim, but it's all FAKE! So don't get all bent out of shape.
is what the poster of this video calls the playlist within which you find this video.

To your first assertion:
Excuse me, your opinion or do you a more substantial basis?
and
To your second:
Huh?


I'm not sure that it can be taken as fact, but it would certainly seem that way

Also, thinking about it - I'm not sure that little board could restrict the flow of ink - although the reporting of the ink left thing could be true.

Absolutely fantastic, and, also, brilliant marketing. She released her latest album 3 days ago... coinkidink? I think not.

Does not change the fact that this woman can write a fine song and has an awesome voice. This skit is brilliant because it's a way of reminding us how big her first album was, and how much those songs are just 'in there'... well, I was singing along with them all in the skit, I remember listening to the album while I did odd jobs for extra cash while I was at uni... so it takes me back to exact moments (I can remember one exact garden I was working on while listening to it for example)... great stuff.

We used to have a guy who would come into uni every Thursday and sing hymns in the Great Court. He wasn't preachy, but... still annoying.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I didn't (and wouldn't) call you lame - just the comment.

I would say that a threat to profits is the only real motivation that moves these corporations. It's not about them growing a conscience- it's about them worrying that a similar fate to BP (forced bankruptcy) could happen to them - and therefore mitigating that risk by taking safety into account.

The Exxon Valdez incident, unfortunately, gave just the opposite message.

>> ^campionidelmondo:

The idea that the demise of BP will seriously change things for the better (first quote) is naive. The likes of Exxon and Shell will pick up the slack and if you believe they'll suddenly grow a conscience you are badly mistaken (there were many accidents before this one that changed nothing). Meanwhile a lot of the "small guys" try to secure their retirement by building up a portfolio of so-called solid stocks. BP used to be one of those stocks, so their downfall would make alot of people bleed (and has already), not to mention all the people who'd lose their jobs. If it makes you feel better to call me lame for pointing that out, go ahead.>> ^dag:
A just financial punishment of BP - is the one thing that has a chance of preventing other companies like Shell and Exxon from following in BP's footsteps.
Exxon was on the hook for 2.5 billion dollars for the Valdez spill (which I worked on during my summer vacation from uni) - they appealed to the supreme court and got off. A valid argument could be made that if Exxon was punished adequately for that spill, other companies would have been a bit less reckless - and we may not be in the situation we are now.
Branding this as "left-wing naivety" is just an attempt at marginalization - and honestly, a bit lame.

10.7 billion dollars of liability + criminal charges + cleanup charges. BP's stock price is tanking and there is now talk that BP may cease to exist. Good.

Yes, because the corporations that'll take up the void left by BP are run by friggin saints! You know, Shell, Exxon... God bless 'em. Seriously guys, what's up with all the left-wing naivety surrounding this recent oil spill?

Saw this guy at Nottingham Uni back in 2003/2004 along with that other Aussie who talks about shoving an egg up his butt and Alan Carr. This guy was the best of the night, he went on for about 25 minutes and had a great skit about eating home-grown shrooms in Amsterdam.

HAH!! I did that to give NetRuiner a chance to non-ignore anything I have to say on his behalf!! He kept a straight face, never responded to arguments he knew he would lose-A temper-tantrum bait that no shark in his right mind to swim the ocean un-hindered would go for-

NetRunner's claim to fame here is that his uni-dimensional postings according to his shattered dream of democracy tinctured with hope, hav given him the status he so well deserves-

In reply to this comment by geo321:
How many god damn olbermann videos did you dead? I know its well over one hundred because I've undeaded at least sixty and there are still several pages of Olbermann in a row left. I'm fucking tired of his voice. The only good thing is that he's easy to get a power point from because he wears so many different ties. You can match the olbermann ties from the dead video to the youtube video of the right date pretty easily. Anyway

"Seems like most newbies that post good stuff doesn't need to be held in the hand all the way... maybe the rest should learn from that."

^(and they tell me I don't know how to construct a sentence!)^^^

Newbies that posted "good stuff" are to be found in that playlist of swampgirl's above-Timing being what it is, y'all may want to check the user's starless "P" status when considering slapping a vote onnit-Some of these folks who lurk and finally post may have bailed when their initial offering was ignored.

Oh and, if tenured users would pull their noses out of each others asses for a spell and would care to peruse the pqueued section of some of the folks who try and try to have their stuff published but find that their tastes are not to the liking of others, you may start to see a pattern.

I am nothing if not tenacious-as to the dedicated tenacity of most folks???...They are energetic enough to "ignore" something they don't like.....hoo-fucking-rah, way to stick to your lazy-ass principles.(Let someone who has something to say that is somewhat conservative??..."Oh, let's rip that buffoon a new one, how 20th century, how gouche!) The place needs more art and music and culture-let others express themselves and stroke a stranger's ego from time to time in the process-I come to the site lately and see the same 23 people thinking that they have something to say ALL THE TIME!!! (this is only evidenced by myself lately in marathon rants, perhaps because the discussions wax inane and the one-liners ya clever monkeys tend to come up with fall like bodies from high-rises!)

My problem with linear thinking is, it makes the place boring and predictable. Isn't anyone else tired of uni-dimensional stick figures posing as people with a clue??

Translation of the quotes from scientists:

"the only sensational thing about this case is that its presented as a sensation.." , "Jørgen Berge, professor in marine biology at UNIS, Svalbard.

"Norwegian scientists have been studying these animals for 30 years, and the idea that this is news probably stems from old beliefs about how nothing could live under the ice"

"- If they had turned the camera around and looked at the seafloor they would have found a rich community of animals. Even if this drill is done well into the ice(far from the open sea) there are under-ice paths out to the ocean"

Sad really, that more folks who care about the vision of the site don't squash like cretinous insects those who would that the mediocre, mundane, and base elements of the human condition be showcased and paraded before us all like some zombified military parade...."public masturbation quality control" perhaps a more fitting moniker....What are ya gonna do though?? The world continues to crank out generation after generation of uni-dimensional dysfunctionals, at a break-neck pace...Soon, the entire world will resemble some bizzarro planet of automatomatious lackeys whose only concerns will be to eat, sleep, shit, fuck, and die...and follow rules, which will be spelled out in one, continuous and unceasing spiel over loudspeakers and intercoms during hours of gleeful toil.

It's the end of the world as we knew it.
