Just wonder what you guys play besides your computers. I play a bit of guitar and can sort of read music. Also wondering if there are any good (preferably free) websites with online lessons to something like guitar or piano

24 Minutes : IT Skammer vs IT department. The day he tried to phone skam an IT expert… (feat music from Orbital)
by Guest Loopz- 8 replies
- 582 views
“24 Minutes” – Please distribute to friends – don’t get caught out by this skam! This is a very common IT phone Skam but unfortunately the phone skammer didn’t realise he was calling an IT department. We decided to play the “game” of a non-IT user before exposing him as a Skam. There is some information on the Skam itself at the end of the film. Note: These skammers will invest a lot of time just to get what they want. Even with all the obvious jokes and blatant insults they still carried on trying. The phone call was a total of 24 minutes but we only started recording part way through. We had already had a conversation about a firewall, in which we related it to …

Its 2am. There's no fuckin fire. No fuckin smoke. I changed the fuckin battery (it's even going off with the battery out). I closed all the windows (the windows were open before and it smelled a little smokey out) and pointed a fuckin fan at that shit and it's still going off. WTF?!?!? It is soo fuckin loud and shrill. It's seriously driving me crazy. I'm about to get all Larry David on that shit (somebody post a YouTube of that shit). I have to be up in less than 5 hrs. Make it stop.

one of my best friends is getting married. I'm pretty sure he's not religious but his wife-to-be is a pretty serious catholic who like teaches at a catholic school and goes to church on a regular basis. So I had to do a similar catholic wedding last summer with another one of my good friends and I happened to be sitting beside the couple that are getting married this year and I was not really behaving myself because I have zero patience for ignorant things like religious rituals or religion in general... It actually angers me so much that my heart rate in noticeable. why the fuck are we wasting our time with fairy tales in this day and age? Anyway I got so angry when …

invisialign braces anyone?
by Guest Franklin- 11 replies

I'm interested in 1. how fucked your teeth were to begin with and how long it took or is taking 2. how noticeable you feel they are to others (lots of people won't say "hey you have braces" but they might tend to look at your mouth more) and how long it takes to adapt your speech with each set of inserts 3. I understand that you cant chew gum but have you done it anyways and what happened 4. how much pain they cause you I have teeth that are pretty fucked and I think I'm at the point where I am established (married, am a professional, run a business etc) and just want to look better. but I have a clientele that would likely not take well to noticing braces as it …

good lord. im not claustrophobic but that was very tight. the edge of the tube was about 5" from my face. (that's what she said) but it wasn't really how tight it was, it was the sounds. man alive, the sounds were horribly loud. at first i didnt think i could make it through the whole exam, which is 35 minutes. then the noises started to layer and they got very autechrian. it was insane, i just kept trying to find the rhythm in it. has anyone ever been through this space odyssey torture device?

Anyone ever tried DMT? Any serious prolonged effects? Dangerous and what not? or is it all relative like LSD and shrooms with the possibility of a good or bad trip? And if anyone has taken DMT or I guess any psychedelic for that matter would they advise it and have any crazy interesting trips they would like to share?

People's right to strike 1 2
by Guest kokeboka- 32 replies

I'm always puzzled when I hear someone arguing against workers' right to strike. There's a general strike scheduled for Thursday, and most citywide public transportation is expected to be inoperative during that day. Today, I overheard someone arguing that a strike was just people being lazy and wanting a day off work, that if they really wanted to change something they would mount a protest and not just strike. The strike would be an inconvenience to her, since she couldn't get around town that day. I didn't want to start a debate with that particular person because she's that kind that just keeps getting louder and louder in an argument. Anyway, the right to strike …

So here we are. The tides have risen, the apocalypse is passed, the tits and pedo-gore fetish images are gone for good. So we have to manage. And I tend to manage. And I thought up a way to have creative fun, and also provoke our boss and godfather Joyrex to come along and add to the happening. So here's them rules: We draw ms-paint drawings and try to make them as right as possible while somehow still managing them to be wrong at the same time. But the wrong can't go overboard, right? So Joyrex or some other admin person shall rate the wrongness of the drawing from 1 (being totally right and over-non problematic) to 10 (being very wrong, too wrong and made your image…

I was supposed to go to my brother's gig tonight; he's in a jazz band and I take photos for him and others every now and then. The nightlife in my city is pretty rough, so I know that's a strong factor right off the bat for feeling pretty uncomfortable (read unsafe). I was probably at this club for about two minutes before I had to leave - I couldn't deal with the amount of people there, what I'm supposed to do there. I just left, said I had to catch a train. Ugh People, how do you do it?

Some time ago somebody on here posted about a biological book with these magnificient illustration of plants and/or animals. Does anybody remember what it was called? I know the illustrations were quite old, if that helps. I want to give it to a biologist friend as a birthday present. Thanks m8s.
