What we have and haven’t learned from... →
The lesson we’ve learned from climategate is simple. It’s the same lesson taught by death panels, socialist government takeover, Sharia law, and Obama’s birth certificate. To understand it we must turn to agnotology, the study of culturally induced ignorance or doubt. (Hat tip to an excellent recent post on this by John Quiggen.)
Beck, Palin, and the rest of Fox News and talk radio operate on...

“Our youth now love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority, they...”
– Socrates, 400 BC.
Seems like more of a human trait than a quality of youth at any particular time. Fuck you, Socrates.

The next time someone tells me people were well mannered in the old times, I’m gonna quote Socrates and show them the finger.

CRACKED.com: Jumping In, Title-First →
A new animated movie is coming out soon, Gnomeo & Juliet. It’s pretty obvious that it only exists because someone thought of the punny title and assumed that meant it needed to be a movie. Here are our own suggestions for titles-that-shouldn’t-be-movies, based on history, classic literature,…

Why I hate Flash®
You just can’t escape the seemingly ubiquitous presence of Flash on the internet. Even if you ignore all the ugly, distracting Flash ads, you still can’t escape it on your favourite online video-sites like YouTube, where the video-player and its user-interface are in Flash. And this is where it really hits my nerves.
No, it’s not because I own an Apple computer where (as I’ve heard) Flash performs...

“This is where Linux fails. Miserably. Linux is about freedom. A different kind...”
– Arve Bersvendsen, ranting in an old blog post Why Linux has failed, and why Linux will fail again, on desktop Linux failure, and the ostentatious kind of freedom that only l33t g33ks want. The l33t g33ks don’t care about the average Joe. Most of them would actually think that the average Joe...

“You can also use this to hit someone on the head and their skull is guaranteed...”
– My friend Anthony when he gifted me a heavy-duty Maglite flashlight (made of aircraft aluminium) on my birthday three years ago.
Unfortunately, I don’t think there would be any warranty on it for damage caused by battery leaks.
