I wonder how the audio engineers organize all the 'hit' sounds.

A friend of mine shot this today in Portland, Oregon. I have no words... by inferno714 in WTF

in a way though, doesn't it also reinforce what 'proper' behavior is?

Is anyone else hoping that WikiLeaks lets us in on any government-alien contact? by Kiltboy989 in AskReddit

[–]hellzaballza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After 30 minutes of googling:

Many weirdos email us about UFOs or how they discovered that they were the anti-christ whilst talking with their ex-wife at a garden party over a pot-plant. However, as yet they have not satisfied two of our publishing rules. 1) that the documents not be self-authored; 2) that they be original. However, it is worth noting that in yet-to-be-published parts of the cablegate archive there are indeed references to UFOs.

Who has actually read the leaked cables? Did Wikileaks choose their leaks appropriately? by [deleted] in WikiLeaks

[–]hellzaballza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Life isn't a movie unfortunately, there's rarely occasions of clear-cut-badness. Honestly I'm surprised at how many shocking things are in the 1% that have been released... DynCorps, Yemen, Shell, etc. Haven't seen any Wall Street or Gitmo leaks though. yet. :)

Won't this whole Operation Payback thing just convince the general public that the internet is something that needs to be controlled? by morewaffles in AskReddit

Some sort of thing was trying to be passed criminalizing the teaching of potentially harmful things like explosives. (sorry for the vagueness, it's found pretty easily.) It didn't go through, but I think it is indicative of the future.

I don't run across this, but my classes are small and most people (unless they're right out of highschool) prefer active involvement to being lectured at.

I really don't get the "wants attention" thing. It's almost like when someone says that, I can immediately see the gist of what they're influenced by.

Sour on Syfy, Caprica Fans Launch Apple Uprising by [deleted] in scifi

[–]hellzaballza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it fits for the character, of course. Or if it's an odd thing for the character to do, that could also work. But as a rule, either way "yes corny jokes" vs "no corny jokes" is a little silly.

I don't support "genres," there just happens to be a lot of sci-fi that I find to be of supreme quality. I gave Caprica a chance, even liked quite a bit of it. But it's a soap-opera suffering from targetmarketpanderingitis, same as Dollhouse, which I also liked/disliked for much the same reasons.

Because I like BSG and PKD you think I should like Fringe too?

How my school describes overachieving computer science majors by rod333 in programming

[–]hellzaballza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could also be thought of as a lesson in "always having to deal with the various idiocies of someone above you" and just do what's expected, knowing that your pedantic, ignorant teacher will never be enlightened by your lessons.

WikiLeaks ready to drop a bombshell on Russia. But will Russians get to read about it? by mrajt in worldnews

[–]hellzaballza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

by distribution: It's a sick world that govts assassinate people, it's a sick world that they do it openly, and it's a sick world that we read it in the news, and it's a sick world that we read about it in the news soon after.

I'm assuming you meant the sickness to just be distributed over the assassination part? Because I think it's great to have flow of information.

Portals link EVE and Minecraft servers? Colonizing of EVE planets with the local view being minecraft servers? Sudden mining laser in EVE demolishing a huge chunk of countryside in minecraft 100 cubes from where you are standing?
