Hi guys! I'm kinda new here. I was a member on the forum way back in 2001 but I signed up again when I heard Aphex Twin talking about the watmm kickstarter. Anyway, about me: I live in Japan, I make electronic music mainly using Logic and Ableton and I enjoy listening to Björk, Matthew Herbert and sometimes I indulge in a little pop music. I'm looking forward to hanging out here again and I did read the rules! If you want to know anything more, just ask!

sup dongmasters, is there any way to force youtubes posted on watmm to play through flashplayer instead of html5 player? firefox has some issues with html5 player and youtube recently (probably the reason they're lagging behind with proper 60fps playback). testing something.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ke-_nKHpDs [youtubehd]7Ke-_nKHpDs[/youtubehd]

"A massive fire in downtown Los Angeles closed down portions of two major freeways Monday morning and could be seen for miles. More than 250 firefighters are battling the blaze at 909 W. Temple St., Los Angeles Fire Department spokesman David Ortiz said. The building is slated to be a 7-story residential structure with commercial space on the lower level, but Ortiz said he did not believe anyone was living or working there when the fire broke out."

Read this 2012 article in The New Yorker the other day. This actually seems like one of those long-form avant-garde films that would be really interesting to watch. Has anyone been fortunate enough to see it? Does anyone know of any other interesting long-form films that don't seem like they'd be absolute toss?

can you defend this kind of tactic? study by duke university it's well known that republicans have been implementing this trick for a while. maddow has covered it several times. maddow maddow 2 maddow 3 it makes sense that the party that's behaving in this blatandly self-serving (and not constitutent representing) way is the party that's supported by people's greed, in that they stand for fiscal conservatism, though they really just care about the wealth of the richest americans. tldr: this underhanded political tactic makes a difference of 69% republican presence vers the 43% republican presence that would result from mathematically fair dis…

I ain't buying it for you, but I'm curious. This year may be the first time I don't want anything. I have no space for books and films and anything else is a bit pointless. I do not think it is a coincidence that this feeling coincides with the first Christmas where I am 30.

hey, sorry to clutter General Banter with that but since yesterday I noticed I can't access my PM box. Weird because everything worked fine before. I just logged out and tried to log in again and I noticed that the Sign In button is also blocked (as for the PM, and actually all the buttons of this upper bar, they get triggered but the linked page won't load). I had to find another way to access the login screen in order to post this message. Also, when I validate a post I wrote the little loading window appears but I won't get redirected (post is posted though). is it serious doctor?..

If you only saw the Halloween Special with Zach G... don't worry! Even though it has technically the same title this is a new Tim and Eric show with a Twilight Zone/Outer Limits twist every episode. The first episode would probably appeal to fans of David Lynch and T&E equally. premiere was at 12:15 am on friday, I think a new one airs every week on Adult Swim. Next one stars Bob Odenkirk
