Re:Hmm not that impressive.
I think the neat part of this video is what looks like an airport in the background... Lots of little dots move toward the ground to one spot, with lots of other little dots moving back up into the sky... It looks pretty neat in time lapse!
For those who want to see some really awesome time lapse, I highly recommend the film Koyaanisqatsi. -
Re:No, that's the secret service doing their job
This is bullshit. The King of Sweden drives his own car to work without much protection. The Prime Minister does her own shopping without bodyguards (unfortunatly, the last one was killed by a drug-addict in a terrible and very sad incident). It's mostly like this in the few civilised countries, where life is good, people are well-off and happy, and that do not threated the world.
Of course, unpopular leaders like Bush, Putin, Kim Chen Ir (sp?), Hussein, etc., need thousands (literally) of thugs "protecting" them. But let me tell you, when you were elected by the people, when people believe you, when they see you care about them and are doing a good job, when they respect you and love you, then you will prevail even when someone attacks you, your government and the constitution of your country. Check out The Revolution Will Not Be Televised, an amazing documentary about a failed US-supported coup d'etait in Venezuela in 2002.
P.S. And just to make myself clear, if I could kill Mr. Bush (or Mr. Putin) without significan risk to my life or if I could support financially a terrorist organisation that would likely do it, I would. Sadly, I don't have the skills, resources and connections necessary to pull it off. :((
P.P.S. Just to remind you - King of Sweden drives his own car to job and reportedly he was even stopped once by a traffic cop. If that is OK for a European monarch, surely it must be good enough for a retarded illiterate coke-sniffing deserting greedy lying texan moron scumbag...
P.P.P.S. Just so that this post is easy to find, here are some keywords: Al-Quaeda, Usama Bin Laden, Saddam, WMD^H^H^H (strike that, it won't be easy to find), explosives, anthrax, dirty bomb, terrorism, kill the president, porn, teens, Nintendo, Zelda, Mario. :))) -

Re:The VC's most important contribution...As the above poster says, I'm skeptical a porn scene was shot on the 'Comet, no matter what IMDB says.
Even if the military had supplied the equipment and personel, Porn economics dictates that it would be too expensive. The Porn industry could make a few hundred thousand features for the price of one brief spell of zero gravity.

The VC's most important contribution.../. readers will be happy to know that among the various achievements was 'at least 285 gallons of vomit'
... although unknown how much when it was used for filming the Apollo 13 movie.Vomit wasn't the only bodily excretion when the vomit comit was used for filming The Uranus Experiment. So I guess that makes 285 gallons of vomit and one pop-shot.

Re:Honest question

Bah! I would have really liked the movie if the Vice President Cheney^H^H^H^H^H^HBecker guy became President after the real president died choking on a pretzel. :) -
Re:Picasso?
also try robot monster. boring, confusing, stupid...
wood was interesting in that he didn't seem to understand that what he was making was crap (until later on perhaps). many people have made bad movies, many of them were one time directors, writers, actors, etc. wood kept doing it.
there are many movies that are far worse than wood's, but his are strangely enjoyable in their own craptacular way. -
Re:"private networks"
And Waste is impossible to detect because each person running Waste can set their own port number (from the default 1337), and even set it to run on port 80 if they wanted.
Anonymous P2P like Mute is calling itself the next generation in P2P, and sacrifices performance for privacy - i.e. you don't know who's requesting a file, you only know who you're connected to, so you could actually be a conduit for dozens of people sharing files.
Anonymity (Mute) vs. Privacy (Waste) are mutually exclusive. You either know who you're talking to reliably, or you don't. You can't both know who you're talking to AND be anonymous.
Private networks suffer from the same problems as ShadowCrew - if you let too many people in, one person could comprimise the entire network and learn the identities of everyone. There are websites out there that share waste networks. That just seems silly to me. Waste is about *privacy* so publicizing your existance is just stupid. The problem then becomes finding a group of people you trust who have different content from you.
I read somewhere a while back about a Japanese DVD trading ring - they actually mailed DVD's back and forth, perhaps pirating them once they had them. When you joined you had the name of the person who invited you in attached to your name until you built up a reputation. People looking to go underground would be wise to adopt such a policy. Invitation only, stay small, and develop a reputation system. Don't these people watch undercover movies like Wu jain dao (Infernal Affairs here in America)?

Re:This is pretty big!--The Feds missed one!
Um, you do know that protecting the currency and the monetary system is exactly what the Secret Service is *for*? They don't have any mandate or authority w.r.t. phishing, so far as I know.
I know their job is to protect the USA President and the USA financial system. Surely that carding ring they broke up recently didn't get all those 1.7 million credit card numbers solely by 'dumpster diving' and other 'meatspace' exploits.
I know the Secret Service are deadly serious about protecting the USA President and the American monetary system--just look at how popular In The Line Of Fire and To Live And Die In L.A. still are in the years after there respective releases. They also happen to be two favorite films of mine. Both films vividly convey how deadly and hair-raising being a United States Secret Service Agent can be! -

Re:This is pretty big!--The Feds missed one!
I just sent a complaint email to the abuse team responsible for Net access at a particular USA educational institution that is now hosting, at time of writing, a fake eBay 'phish' site. Presumably, it's just a compromised system cracked by outsiders--if not, then somebody there at said institution has got some 'splaning to do!
The Feds may pay lip service to the spam email problem with Band-Aid approaches like the CAN-SPAM Act, but fvck with the USA money supply (via ID theft in this case) and they will take notice! -
Not even close...
Considered the worst film maker of all time, Ed Wood
Oh come on! I can think of a few that are worse than Ed Wood:
And many others...
Despite his incompetence, Wood had a goofy earnestness that made his films at least watchable.

Re:Worst movie maker of all time? Not hardly.
Also the recent movie Primer was made for about $7000 also.
Why is 7000 the magic number though? Interesting... -
Re:Worst movie maker of all time? Not hardly.
Many modern producers couldn't have breakfast for less than $7,000. The man was a genius.
Could the same be said of Robert Rodriguez?
He made El Mariachi for about $7,000.00
I found it to be an entertaining film.
He kept the cost down (by necessity) by pricipally doing all the camerawork, direction, and behind-the-scenes production work himself among other things. -
Re:startup.com
Well, there was Dot, which was a parody that was really close to the mark. More info at The Sneaky Kings website. Startup.com was real, but as a parody, Dot was pretty close to the mark as well. A little too close.

Re:The affirming thing about Ed Wood....
There was a movie about that, which starred Johnny Depp as Ed Wood, and Martin Landau as Bela Lugosi. It was directed by Tim Burton.
It was a really good movie. I'm sure there's some irony in there somewhere. :-) -
Re:Picasso?
Sure I'd take one of Ed's movies over say... Pearl Harbor any day. But that's because Pearl Harbor wasn't bad, it was mediocre. But Pearl Harbor was much closer to what you'd be taught how to do in film school.
I'm sure Team America would disagree.
-
startup.comReminds me of a great documentary, startup.com, about a dot.com that wanted to do something or other that would make tons of money.
So many funny and tragic things happened there that to this day I'm not entirely convinced that it isn't a mockumentary a la Spinal Tap.
For us in old Europe it was a double treat, because we'd get to experience both the dot.com madness, as well as the "standard" American business practices, like the "Monday morning shout" and other weird (for us) motivational stuff.
Definitely check this documentary out if you haven't already.

Re:thanks for the memories

Re:Picasso?
Agreed...if you want to see a true example of a movie that is simply awful , without even Ed Wood's reeeming quality, check out Robot Ninja.

Re:*NOT* a Free Speech and/or Patriot Act Issue
I'm a staunch Republican, and I never wanted to see Clinton dead. Impeached, yes. Dead? No.
Yeah, but: Clinton just got a blow job. Bush has indirectly slaughtered over 1,000 of your children.
If it was my children dying because Bush had Dick in his ear telling him to go to war to make more money, then I'd certainly want "an eye for an eye."
Back on topic, I read the cached version of her "prayer" and completely agree that it was satire, obviously so, and involved no real threat, from her or somebody else (other than God, who's going to kill all of us one day). Did the people who wrote the movie "Dead Presidents" get visits from the SS? (I love that abbreviation, makes them sound so Third Reichish.)

Re:Quotes
It's actually a sad story... the guy had to turn to pr0n industry at some point, because nobody wanted to fund him anymore (I'm sure you can guess why)
He tried so hard for so long, putting his heart into something that he believed in (angora sweater fetishes aside) and never made it into the Hollywood system. At least now his films are well known if only for extreme badness. Plan 9 from Outer Space is widely considered to be the worst film ever.
I always think of Russ Meyer (who died just recently) for some reason when I hear Ed Wood's name. -
Re:Wood
No, that would be The Bare Wench Project you're thinking of.
-
Dear Ed WoodDear Ed Wood,
I found your link.
Yours,
Modip Insightful. -
The affirming thing about Ed Wood....
is that no matter what..he made the movies. Obviously during his time he was a positively horrible producer but he lived his dream.....
People keep saying his "masterpiece" was Plan 9 but you REALLY should see Glen or Glenda? if for nothing else the mixture of Bela Lugosi and a buffalo stampede. -

Re:this doesn't worry me, for some reason.
The X-Files was shot up there. I remember Duchovny complaining about that and saying he'd want to be closer to his wife or something.
His contract said he agreed to shoot the first five (or was it four) seasons in Vancouver. Subsequent seasons were shot back in the USA when this contract expired.
Duchovny is married to Tea Leoni.

Re:This doesn't seem like a new conclusionReminds me of a conversation between Sir Humphrey and Sir Desmond (both of "Yes, Minister")
Sir Desmond Glazebrook : Surely once a Minister has made his decision, that's it, isn't it?
Sir Humphrey Appleby : What on earth gave you that idea?
Sir Desmond Glazebrook : Surely a decision is a decision.
Sir Humphrey Appleby : Only if it is the decision you want. If not it is just a temporary setback.I want to know if this decision is a decision, or a temporary setback.

I Fail It!Slashdot declares victory over GNAA
Pater - Associated Press Michigan, Detroit OfficeSlashdot, a prominent news web log claiming to be "News for Nerds, Stuff that Matters" has claimed victory over the Gay Nigger Association of America (GNAA).
With GNAA's trolls resorting to stale material which was relevant for five minutes about three months ago and enabling anyone to "cut and paste" a press release using the Open Source philosophy has led to GNAA's demise. Netcraft confirms it.
GNAA's founder timecop was seen locking up the headquarters one last time. An unassuming outdoor mens room deep in the heart of Tennessee was once host to numerous sessions of blowjobs, anal and creampies attended only by homosexual African-Americans. "I reckon I jest likes fuckin' girls. White girls. [note broken link]" was the only statement given to the press at this time. Former lovers and Windows users Lysol and Roloffle were found standing at "half-mast" upon the sad but inevitable occasion.
Robert W. Malda shared his feelings regarding the event. "Oog the Caveman (a pioneer of ALL CAPS == TEH FNY), The Glorious Meept, Trollaxor, The Turd Report, WIPO Troll, Recipe Troll even goatse had something to contribute to our forums. GNAA is populated solely by crybaby attention whores who wouldn't know a rpm if it bit them on their tender, velvety asshole which is barely covered by a fine mist of downy, pre-pubescent hairs." After a brief reverie Mr. Malda conceded "At least GNAA uses valid xHTML instead of dicey HTML 3.2"
About GNAA:
GNAA (GAY NIGGER ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA) was a troll organization known for its "cut and paste" style of trolls which are written once every six months.
