Public relations-officer for Southern Illinois University College Republicans sends misogynistic hate mail and is forced to resign

What an asshole.
Perhaps we should punish hate crimes with the death penalty.

I'm on a Bay Area Police Scanner mailing list.
Someone on the list recorded video of the Coast Guard helicopter landing after her body was recovered on YouTube. No, this isn't a RickRoll, that would be in extremely poor taste.

Nice images. I wonder though from a modeling standpoint. Why is the ball representing water translucent while the air one is not?

Insider's story about Atari
March 9, 2008 8:30pm
Thanks for the link, I really enjoyed reading that.
I was confused by his statement about the level background graphics being stamped once.
I thought with the Atari 2600 there was no frame buffer due to RAM limitations of the machine (due to high manufacturing cost at the time) . I thought the screen had to be drawn from scratch for each frame and synced with the vertical refresh rate of the television. So how would the background be "stamped" down once if there is no frame buffer?

Anonymous vs. Scientology protest in LA today
February 11, 2008 2:04am
#36 : The point of Anonymous is that it is not centralized in any way shape, or form and thus operates purely on the whims of those who take part.
So like a flash mob. There's a plan, or perhaps some semblance of one, but no serious organization or coordination to speak of. As if the internet has taken the place of pheromones in an ant colony.
#36 : These protests are to prove a concept and to help define a class of person who believes in the power of information and the capacity for a cause to garner popularity without a figurehead.
I see what you are saying and think that is inevitable that society will bifurcate to some degree between the online and the offline citizens; interesting concept indeed. But why the Scientologists as the first target for assault?
Are they seen as an evil, yet easy target? I could identify several other, higher priority targets for citizen action than the CoS. Perhaps this is a proof of concept, or like the hive mind of the ant colony, it's just the current goal, however fuzzy, and unclear that goal may be.

Radio volunteer sets station on fire over playlist dispute
January 29, 2008 10:33pm
You know.... somehow this reminds me of Jack Thompson and the kids that do crazy shit and he blames it on video games.
Look, if they have a predisposition for erratic or irrational behavior they're going to crazy shit, regardless of the cause. Video games, music, books, comics books, pornography, etc. Don't blame the media, blame the psyche.

Ronald Jenkees; Hello YouTubes, have you heard my SICK beats?
September 5, 2007 12:54am
Wow! Thank you Xeni. I learned about Ronald from here, went to his YouTube channel and watched a few things. After 20 minutes I ordered 2 CDs. After doing so I sent Ronald an email. He replied, personally, within 20 minutes thanking me for the support. This is the music distribution model of the future -- connecting directly with the fans without the corporate B.S. His is the first (physical) CD I've bought in over 5 years (physical that is. I've bought tune via iTunes in that time).
