They're not up to Primer's level of complexity, but for bending your brain a little, try: eXistenZ ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120907/ ) Naked Lunch ( http://www.imdb.com/title/…

Gah. The corporate-speak vocabulary obliterates any sincerity that may have been been in that letter when it was conceived. It reads like nothing more than "damage control".

Ha! That stuff isn't any more "fattening" than a #1 combo, large-sized, from any fast food joint. Hell the most unhealthful food mentioned in that whole post was probably the Pepsi…

The industry and consumers were much better off with Standard Oil controlling most of the industry. It stabilized markets and led to more efficient crude and refined oil production…

Skype is not promising to protect human rights.

If your doctor won't give you a B12 shot tell him to shove it up his ass, and get a new doctor. It's not like you're asking him to write you a 'script for 300 oxycotin tabs. The co…

Journalism is fucking dead. People write these days like they're Charles goddam Dickens and the page should be dense with their words. Like they're crafting great literature when i…

Nope, still nothing around that even vaguely competes with the iPod touch. 3,427 announcements of amazing freakin' devices sure to be released any day now! The only market with mor…

Pre-paid iPhone that only does data through WiFi? Gads, I've been trying to find something like that for over year now.

I think the fact that you'd need a natural gas pipeline, or a propane tank out back, kind of negates the "disconnected from the grid" thingy. Also, where does one get the energy to…

Lists like this should really contain links to torrents of the films.

I love Jacob's Ladder to death, despite the fact that it once gave me vivid nightmares. Or maybe because of that. But the ending really sucks. The last minute of the film just fuck…

>I can bet that woman must be good at something she has never been tested on and probably does not know about. Hah. That women may very well be average at a lot of things, and bad …

A vice president of a state university once said to me during an interview: "I wonder when the state legislature is going to notice that they are giving us money to teach to studen…

Did you go to university in the '70s pr something? All that's "expected" of students anymore is a pulse, AFAICT.

>There’s a reason that Apple has always been the choice of artists and musicians. The machine itself is artful. Yeah, it’s expensive, and it crashes, but it’s artful. And that coun…

Flashblock is a popular add-on for Firefox. I would recommend a button on your page that adds your site to the Flashblock "allowed" list.

Speaking of evil companies....

Silliness. Inspired design creates simple solutions for complex problems. That thing is a complex solution for a simple problem. Or perhaps it's a complex solution without any prob…

Or maybe not. That doesn't seem to be set up for one-person jobs. More like hiring a swarm to sift through data. I may give www.peopleperhour.com a try. (The Mechanical Turk sugges…

Probably not--there's a lot of text in the charts. And I want to be able to edit them easily in the future. Thanks, though.

Looks perfect. Thank you.

I've got some flow-charts that are currently image files, which I need to redo as Oo Draw files. I hate that kind of mindless work. Are there any websites out there where you can p…
