5.28.2000 List of Known Spyware Infested Software, otherwise known as software to avoid like the plague. In a related note, RealNetworks is *for the third time* caught snooping on it's users. Folks, we have to stop these no-ethics marketing fucks.

5.27.2000 to prove that the swedish can do more than look perty and sound funny, i give you the Immersive Space Laboratory. there are all sorts of cool little bits coming out of this project, not the least of which is a 3D window manager for X. sure, it'll have the memory footprint to rival that of windows2000, and will steal all those clock cycles from seti@home, but dammit, it will looking fucking cool.

5.26.2000 And now, for the worst non-death penalty death I've read this year ... ouch. Well, gotta admit, that's hella good teamwork there.

5.24.2000 Chuck D & Lars go head to head on PBS (Charlie Rose). BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Ulrich you whoring white LA bitch. Between this Danish 'tard and Dr. Dre, I'm thinking SoCal needs a new pair of cement shoes. "When LA falls and is flushed away, all that will be left is Arizona Bay."

5.22.2000 Banned by Napster for liking shitty metal(lica)? Try this fix, but don't blame us when it breaks your machine.
Oh, And I thought *we* hated Micro$oft. posted by creon
Sure, it's a turn-of-the-millenium link, but dammit, it's from the Onion. "Holy mother of fuck, I'm on the surface of the fucking moon."

5.20.2000 look through this site and ask yourself: how long before someone hax0rs linux onto one of these things?
these things are cute, if misguided. they have a pc-slot for an ethernet card, but in this day, it should be built-in or wireless, dammit. plus, it runs winCE on a RISC processor. when will people learn: winCE is for toothless vietnamese hookers with no thumbs. if you're serious about mobile computing, at least use PalmOS, if not Mobile Linux on a Crusoe posted by rhino
5.19.2000 We've had it. We're movin' to Canada. We're sick of this crazy country, thrown over the edge by the farce of an election, Battlefield Earth, the Drudge Report, Windows 2000 and, well, BC Bud. Listen in.

5.17.2000 what's your Wu-Tang name?

no link here. i just wanted to state that i like the idea of public and private waffles. this actually comes from a paper my friend Knuckles is writing on critical theory and the post-penoptic state in which perfect surveillance exists. i dont care if we can assume no privacy, it's all about waffles, DAMMIT.
ok so maybe i'll post a link. posted by rhino
5.16.2000 ok, i usually read christian movie reviews for a good laugh, but i actually agree with their review of my new favorite movie.

5.15.2000 we mentioned this guy in episode 4. he appears to think he's the reincarnation of Richard Roundtree in the body of the Bee Gees.

5.13.2000 if there was any doubt that Battlefield Earth is the worst movie ever to wrest itself from the slimy, shitstained underbelly of hollywood, Rotten Tomatoes has provided us with a summary of all the crappy reviews that this truly horrendous movie has received.

ok, more microslop bullshit here. it's nothing we havent heard before, but i'd like to point out a trend that i've noticed in recent weeks: since when is the guy's name "william h gates?" did he think that people were not taking "bill" seriously? this only adds to my distrust of the man. people who change their names are either lying to themselves or trying to manipulate you, thus my problems with Jackée.

Addendum to Rhino's post on May 4th:
Check out the latest installment of Geeks in Space and count the number of topics we mentioned earlier, and the topics we presented in more detail in our last two shows. Turn it into a drinking game. Or better yet, a smoking game. posted by creon
take a look at the quote in big red letters on the left side of this article. i dont know about you, but i think it's damned funny. microsoft is bitching because the DOJ wants them to make windows a proper operating system. oh, god for-fucking-bid! if there was ever an os that could use a little scaling back and optimization, it's windows. i mean damn, get the low level shit working before you start rendering html so you can browse your porn collection.

5.5.2000 In an age of 350Kb shockwave movies and gargantuan media files, this brings a tear of joy to my eye. An inspiration to anybody who calls themselves a "web designer" (of which there are few, anymore, since anyone who calls themselves a "web designer" obviously just started ... you know who you are).

5.4.2000 i would just like to point out that we are two steps ahead of slashdot today, and we are just two guys, not 10 admins and 70000 readers.

Losing their religion, Tom Cruise and his beard^H^H^H^H^H wife Nicole Kidman have tossed aside the shackles of sci-fi theology ... see battlefield earth below.

this week in the Voice there is a nice article about DeCSS and the coming legal battle between the little guy and the MAN. highlights here include this gem from some drone at the MPAA: "[W]e don't have broadband access today, so we don't have many [pirated] movies on the Internet today." we don't?!

5.3.2000 i was poking around the Battlefield Earth website. i thought there might be some digging to do, but it's so fucking ridiculous, making derogatory comments would be redundant. they claim that it was voted to be the third greatest book of the century. yup, just below Ulysses and Gatsby. and then there is the fact that in all the info about L.Ron, there is not one mention of scientology . . . probably a good idea, cause no one wants to see a movie written by the Nutty Messiah.
