autechre after 4 years of unbearable bikelessness i'm ready to hit the trails again. my previous bike was a $150 mongoose, and this was acceptable. i'd like to get one a little nicer, but stay well under $500 if possible. looking for a hartail ATB, lightweight if possible, as this will probably only be offroad 30-40% of the time. used is fine, i don't mind waiting a bit for a good deal. what do you guys ride? how far? hilly/flat? off/on road?

Bought a 3D screen and been downloading tons of 3-D stuff. The effects on this were amazing.I was expecting far less but it was mind blowing. Anyone else see this yet? I did a search and didn't find anything.

Hi watmm (first world problem here) I've been searching for some tv show reminder as of late but can't seem to find any easy solution (or something that I had in mind). I'm looking for a website that makes me check a couple of tv shows and then automatically sends me an email or writes it down in my google calendar for when a new episode of a particular show has aired. i keep forgetting which series i'm watching/following, and when i do remember i go check on imdb or wiki and find out nothing has aired. ;_;

Satellites reveal sudden Greenland ice melt http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-18978483 also http://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/ I was just back in the Midwest last week and it was HOT AS FUK every day. The whole region has been suffering from severe drought. When you go to the grocery store, people are having casual conversation in line about the possibility of food shortages. Yes, this is the hottest time of the year for that region, but there have been record-breaking stretches of hot weather. It is not good. Lets talk turkey about this shit and try and fix it, WATMM.

I'm a fan of the first movie... the second one I didn't like at all... The third one was OK mainly for Terry Crews and Kat Williams... Apparently, Chris Tucker is confirmed to be back... So... That would be nice! Saw this circulating on my fb this morning. http://allhiphop.com/2012/07/26/exclusive-ice-cube-has-a-new-friday-with-everybody-yes-chris-tucker/

Hey watmm, I just moved up to Sheffield after spending far too many years in Brighton. Been here about 2 months now, really liking it so far. Have been a bit of a recluse so far, work to be doing and so on, but keen to get out more, explore the city and hopefully find some awesome music and musicians. Anyone else on here living round this neck of the woods, know of good places to visit, and good music venues to check out? So far, I've managed to see DMX, Objekt, and Black Dog during the tramlines festival, but aside from that, most live music seems to be bands. Really hope to find some more electronic stuff, if there is any to be found. I'd also really like to…

*I'm not making this thread to bash hipsters, just reporting the news* http://www.odditycen...r-olympics.html I feel indifferent towards hipsters, don't hate them don't love them but i find this really funny that a bunch of adults organized this. Looks like a lot of fun but why call it the Hipsters olympics? why not the Indie Olympics? Cocaine snorting competition ..

I've been thinking a lot lately about time, what it is, how we all perceive it, how I personally perceive it, and what the passage of days felt like years ago compared to right now. I suppose it could be argued that throughout anyone's life, the perception of time naturally evolves according to one's experience. But I guess neurons crossed pathways or something earlier today whilst driving and it occurred to me that, along with things like technology and the population, the speed at which we all drive our cars to this point in time has increased exponentially since let's say even the 1950's. At that point it connected with an idea in my head that I've had sin…

Some of you must live in and around London. I'm coming from Canada with three friends for a few days before the Bangface Weekender in September. My friends and I have all been to London (except one guy) and we were looking for some more unusual stuff to do there. We're gonna hit up a few touristy things at some point I'm sure, especially since my one friend has never been out of the country before, but that's simple enough. We'd all be down for stuff related to art, music, architecture, history or anything weird and fun really. So yeah, what are some unusual or interesting places or things to do you could suggest that might not be on the usual tourist itinerary cause …

I say let him get his groove on, shit the guy is old enough. He's been a tv and movie mainstay since the 70s. Plus he played the guy who ruined Earth in Wall-E, that's a +1 from me. http://m.yahoo.com/w/legobpengine/news/best-show-actor-willard-accused-lewd-act-142904096.html?orig_host_hdr=news.yahoo.com&.intl=US&.lang=en-US

1. Super pstw action rpg (the pstw stands for press space to win) - the whole game is just pushing the spacebar lol. game is here http://www.newground...tal/view/495903 2. Desert Bus - The objective of the game is to drive a bus from Tucson, Arizona to Las Vegas, Nevada in real time at a maximum speed of 45mph. The feat requires 8 hours of continuous play to complete, since the game cannot be paused. The bus contains no passengers, and there is no scenery or other traffic on the road. The bus veers to the right slightly; as a result, it is impossible to tape down a button to go do something else and have the game end properly. If the bus veers off the road it will…

Being from VA, I've got a couple of good ones. Of course I have a second (?) cousin who goes by 'Duck.' I also had an 'Uncle Jiggs' (although he was my grandma's brother, so I dunno what that's called ... 'great uncle'?). And I have an 'Aunt Kitty,' who has an awesome collection of wacky sunglasses. She helped me decorate my first teal sweatshirt with a Super Mario / Nintendo Power iron-on with glitter fabric paint; it was the shit. After a long search, I found it! It was this one: I lovingly recreated the 'POW!' energy burst behind Mario just like that basically. Purple & green mothafuckaaaaaaa (Feel free to derail this thread into …

Hipster Olympics

Remember that Youtube video a few years ago where they spoofed a Hipster Olympics in the style of Monty Python? That was pretty funny back then, right? Well, now the Germans have officially killed hipsterism by making it a real event, and it's into it's second year. How utterly lame.
