  1. http://youtu.be/8UaFOIboH2E My sides, they have split.
  2. One of my good friends on Rick Perry's latest mix-up with Solyndra: "Seriously. It's just gotten sad. Like watching Jordan in a Wizard's uniform. Everyone in the world knows it's over, but he just can't seem to admit it."
  3. You now have the TNG engine idling noise running for 24 hours. You're welcome.
  4. All right, I see your point. But as a day-one purchaser of The Witcher 2, I'm cross about their all-out assault, too.
  5. Exactly. I can get behind pirating a game for demoing purposes, but playing the game, deciding to buy it and then changing your mind after a scare-tactic? People are supposed to believe your self-righteous reasons after that? You're implying that he's fibbing to get games for free. While I do not like it when someone decides to play through a game to completion and then not pay the creator, Johnny's hardly the kind of person that would lie to make his actions appear to be justified. He may do something that I don't like, but he's not going to be dishonest about it.
  6. I really dug the trailer for Rising. It seems that Platinum Games are taking the franchise in an exciting new direction, and I'm very eager to learn more. Honestly, I don't understand the Internet backlash. You tell games like Call of Duty to change, yet you want Metal Gear to stay the same forever? You can't have both, Internet.
  7. I thought we had decided that piracy itself wasn't an immoral thing...
  8. When it comes to sports, I'm like Moss and Roy from The IT Crowd; throwing around jargon I don't understand to pretend like I'm interested.

      Yeah, I don't. I just tell people I don't like sports and they leave me alone. Quite frankly it annoys the crap out of me that grown men talking about other grown men in homoerotic sports is totally normal and yet being interested in old musicals is somehow gay. :-/

      Why would you pretend to be interested in sport? You'll only encourage them to drone on about it even more.

      I like sports themselves but I don't like the culture or expected obsession that surrounds them. So when someone asks me if I like sports or not, I just say "Yeah, I like sports, but I don't follow them." That always shuts them right up. Seems to surprise them. Because I do genuinely like sports, but know nothing about teams or players or leagues, and don't care. I like watching them for the play.

  9. http://boingboing.net/2011/12/11/congressional-staffers-behind.html Hey, the Congressional backers behind SOPA got pay raises and have taken on a new job, working for the entertainment companies that benefit from the bill! Their new job? Launching a campaign to get SOPA passed, of course.
  10. Damn chat crashing on meh...

      Crashing on meth? Why was I not invited to the drug part- oh oh nevermind.

  11. New Google layout, new Twitter layout... everything is changing!

      Yes. Since the 90s it's been easy to get free email. I already have 3 active accounts that aren't GMail. Tracking itself isn't unforgivable - it's just the forced login tied to more personal information that Google does. It is literally and demonstrably following my account, as it displays my account name and automatically logs me in. Bing doesn't do this to me - by default, I only accept cookies from the site I'm visiting so that may limit it, but it makes no differen...

      ...difference to Google; there's no stopping it without logging out or flushing cookies every time I visit one of their sites.

      Bringing ISPs into it is spurious, since that varies and there's no real proving that they track what I do. For one thing, I don't query their DNS servers, and they do not see anything I use SSL for - just the fact I connected to a server address.

      Sounds like Google has the Annie Wilkes thing going on...

  12. As much as I hate to admit it, you're probably right... Damn it! Why do even the best companies have to be so shitty about certain things?
  13. I'm done supporting CD Projekt and GOG. This kind of behavior is disgusting.
  14. Finished Samurai Champloo. Man, what an amazing series! I had tears in my eyes by the end of it, but I still have no idea what the fuck was going on in episodes 22 and 23.
  15. Yeah, you were right about that. He has every right to be an ignorant asshole. But please don't donate to The Salvation Army. They are a disgusting organization that discriminates others for their religious beliefs and sexual orientations.
  16. OK, wrong words. But he should have his ass kicked for hate speech.
  17. I guess there is no "right" candidate at this time in our country. And that's fucking scary. Hmm, maybe I should give this whole presidency thing a try...
  18. Rick Perry should have his ass kicked. This sort of thing should not fly in this country. Fuck him. I hope he chokes on his own ignorance and bigotry. FIXED.
  19. I do not like the Netflix changes, either. Especially since the way they handle the Kinect integration isn't the best; I just want to say "Xbox New Releases", but instead I have to keep saying "Next List" or "Previous List" to scroll through the different categories.
  20. http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2011/12/06/fact-sheet-working-advance-human-rights-lesbian-gay-bisexual-and-transge Thanks, Mr. President!
  21. http://youtu.be/2K8CGeC2M_U Mrs. Bachmann, how does it feel to be outwitted by an eight year old?
  22. Ben Paddon gets on my nerves rather often.
  23. No point in buying their games if they're just going to throw a tantrum and remove access to them like that.
