You may vote on as many nominees as you like. The top 64 will make it into the bracketology. Voting ends on the 15th of March. As always, please take some time to look up the topics you are not already familiar with.

It's that time of year boys and girls. It's time for this year's MOST IDM TOURNAMENT. Please note that the date may be confusing, since it is currently 2013, not 2012. But last year we decided to have the tournament for what was most IDM the previous year so I'm following on in that tradition. I'll draw up a schedule for the bracketology soon. Now is the time for brainstorming, so post your submissions for competitors in this year's MOST IDM TOURNAMENT. Note that I will be leaving the brainstorming open for probably about 2 weeks, since last year we decided on having a longer brainstorming session to open the field for more exiting competitors. Make the most of this WATM…

So a bit over a week ago I saw a new psych (my old one was a hack) who told me it was dumb that I was on Cymbalta and Lamictal and got me started on Lithium (carbonate). I was on 150 Lamictal and 30mg Cymbalta. I dropped to 100mg Lamictal and ~20mg Cymbalta and started 300mg Lithium for the first week, for the second week (now) I'm on 50mg and ~10mg, then I'm off. It seems like I get really tired and for about 5 hours a day I can't think super clearly and it's really hard to do physical activity. I'm sluggish. Nothing seems very real, but that's not unusual; it's been a bit worse recently, though. I've heard this is really fast, but I think my psych was concerned about me…

if you don't know documentary maker Adam Curtis then you don't know anything worth knowing and you should immediately watch the trap, century of self, power of nightmares, the mayfair set etc. reading this Afghanistan stuff (which is interspersed with some brilliant film footage) is great, not only because the more you dig into the history of the West's relationship to Afghanistan, the stranger and more complicated it gets but also because it sounds like he's speaking it to you in your mind ears. the 12 minute film of mountaineer Peter Boardman's first hand account of his near fatal expedition to climb a peak in the Hindu Kush called Koh-i-Khaaik, at the end of…

funny how the western press and american reaction is so hateful and knee jerk. i'm trying to remember what dude did to america that was so bad other than not playing ball with big oil and giving a lot of money to the poor and cheap oil to south america/cuba. sure he was a loud mouth and rather verbose with the commie rhetoric but i think his heart was in the right place. the Venezuelan's are claiming the cia had a hand in killing him with cancer as Mossad did with arafat. it's a stretch but the cia has done stranger and much more horrendous things in the past so who knows?

AIAIAI TMA-1 remote/MIC
by Guest hydrozone- 5 replies
- 2.3k views
Maybe you guys can help me, you are my last hope. I just bought those lovely AIAIAI TMA-1 headphones and I thought the three button in-line remote control would be in the box but apparently AIAIAI sell these headphones either "with" or "without" remote. Obviously I got the "without" option (I knew the low price was too good to be true, duh!). I was so excited to try them on that, like a Timmy, I opened the cable plastic bag so now I can't return the item and get my money back. AIAIAI just told me that, because of an agreement with Apple (damn them!) they can't sell the remote separately. I checked on ebay, amazon, gumtree, you name it...no one sells them. So, it's …

If you could only ever drink one type of alcoholic beverage again... 1 2 3 4

So I'm currently tucking into a bottle of vodka for the first time. Whilst I'm enjoying it, it's certainly not the first choice of tipple that I'd go for. So whilst in a tipsy state, I've asked myself the question "If I could only ever have one drink again, what would it be?" Personally I have a strong love for anything that's ale, stout, cider or Scotch (neat Jager on a hot summer night is also lush), however I think that if push came to shove, stout would probably win the contest. I'm mad for anything bold and strong tasting and stout (not Guinness Draft) usually fulfills on this promise, although extremely hoppy beers come a close second. So WATMM, try to convi…

This is a place to give your ideas for all different forms of art, and to comment on others' ideas, and maybe even decide to create some of these things. To start off, 3 of my ideas: One idea roasty and I have been wanting to do is a point and click game styled like/made with art from unomoralez and with music like this. It would probably be about some sort of weird dystopian future where businesses controlled the world and you had to find the evil demon center of the whole scheme by collecting spirit orbs and locating the demoncore in an underground diamond cave accessed through the central business headquarters tower or something. The whole world will be very cor…

no threads on this? Sounds like RIAA and MPAA have coerced ISPs in America to go along with this, for now. Sounds like they're panicking to me. http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/technology/copyright-alert-system-goes-into-effect/2013/02/26/bf2e22c0-8020-11e2-b99e-6baf4ebe42df_story.html

Sony is widely expected to unveil the next Playstation (I'm hoping they call it something besides PS4) tomorrow, February 20th. There's been tonnes of rumours about the controller (supposedly with a touch pad and Move light sensor functionality), and the hardware, cloud gaming (they bought Gaikai presumably because they want to stream PS3 games via the cloud for backwards compatibility), etc. What's your expectations of tomorrow's announcement(s)?

cornell scientists create the first GM human embryo 1 2

for fuck's sake http://earthhopenetwork.net/forum/showthread.php?tid=706 Scientists have created what is believed to be the first genetically modified (GM) human embryo. A team from Cornell University in New York produced the GM embryo to study how early cells and diseases develop. It was destroyed after five days. The British regulator, the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA), has warned that such controversial experiments cause “large ethical and public interest issues”. News of the development comes days before MPs are to debate legislation that would allow scientists to use similar techniques in…
