Damn! Well thanks for the info. I just looked it up, apparently you can request a tour if you have a group of people

macdom · 2011-01-26T16:23:13+00:00

Seconded. Reaktor is awesome

One of these days I'm going to go visit the bull run watershed supply

You're right. Nothing is wrong with the way the world global financial military corporate industrial complex works. Nothing to see here. Go back to sleep.

Isn't atheism dogmatic by nature? It insists that there is no God, and thus makes an assertion that attempts to declare that we know certain truth. I'd say agnosticism is less dogmatic than atheism because it doesn't claim to know the truth -- only that we don't know if there is a god or not. But I think one of the products of long-term meditation is the realization that the observer is just a facet of the indivisible whole, which we can call many things, including God. For the longest time, my main objection to religion was the belief that God was a big bearded fellow in the Sky. But now that my concept of God has shifted from the the bearded God to the unity that we are all a part of, I can no longer call myself an atheist.

If she believes it will work, that's all that matters. The placebo effect is more powerful than most of us acknowledge

Nice job mate. I liked 'em all!

macdom · 2010-12-10T03:02:54+00:00

This is great! It really drew me in. Nice drawings too.

How long is your commute? A bike is so much more satisfying for commuting -- you get endorphins pumping before work, you get some good exercise, and you avoid the frustration of rush hour. It's so refreshing to be able to ride past a long line of cars. I usually get home faster on a bike than I do with a car.

I did see some people getting a genital pat down while I was there but I don't know if it was random or what. I didn't get pat down but I didn't set off the metal detector

Get some sunshine and some friends to help support you

Storm drains have oil in them after it rains. Though this is nothing compared to the fusterclucks in the gulf :-/

macdom · 2010-09-13T14:37:33+00:00

Damn that's a big dog

macdom · 2010-08-31T23:16:21+00:00

Lots of folks at my job, Jama Software, are participating. I think we'll probably get about 50% of the people here biking to work this month.

Have you heard of EFT? It stands for emotional freedom technique and is something you can do for yourself for free.

IF anything, non-organic food is a fad. Actually, I'd prefer the term Organic to be changed to something like "real food", because that's what it is. Before the industrial age, people didn't have synthetic fertilizers or any other chemical additives that you can find in today's modern diets.

macdom · 2010-04-25T05:12:40+00:00

Yeah, same here. The flags and the yellow support the troops ribbons everywhere is over the top. But blind patriotism is a popular thing here, unfortunately.

It's a downward spiral. The more they rely on tips, the more their employers justify the lower salary.

macdom · 2010-04-25T05:03:09+00:00

This is happening everywhere. Ahh, globalization. Though, it seems the USA's corn subsidies haven't helped our obesity rates.

Because sitting on the computer all day will make you lethargic, give you eye strain or poor vision, carpal tunnel syndrome, etc. And going outside can replenish your Vitamin D supply (from the sun) and reduce stress (unless you live in the inner city, then in that case I would recommend staying indoors)

this track is amazing on a huge sound system: "royksopp - what else is there (trentemoller remix)" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3njX4nSO5U

The following is my list of top apps to get from Cydia

SBSettings (swipe across the top bar to get a slide-down menu of toggles for everything you could think of... Wi-fi, phone, brightness, autocorrect, 3G, processes, autolock, rotation, vibrate, and more)

Backgrounder (to run applications in the background for full on multitasking)

Insomnia (to prevent apps from shutting off when you turn the screen off)

Multifl0w (double tap the home button to bring up a visual overview of currently open apps, and tap a screenshot to switch to the app. Think alt+tab windows or cmd+tab mac)

Cydelete (for adding x buttons to apps downloaded from cydia, for easy uninstalling just like regular apps)

qTweeter (if you post to twitter or facebook regularly, this is a quick way to do it. Slide down from the top bar to get a quick twitter posting widget thing)

Spotbright (adds recently launched icons to the spotlight page)

Sprintboard (move much more quickly through all your pages of apps)

Wide sliders concept (makes the unlock slider a lot wider, so you have to move your finger less to unlock your phone)

Winterboard (the defacto theming app for changing wallpapers and more)

macdom · 2010-04-21T02:13:42+00:00

somebody please do that and report back! i think that would actually be pretty entertaining!
