    that's the best you got for one of the best TV shows that came out in recent times?

    I mean - it was pretty average. S1 was better than S2, except of course the scenery in S2 is lush as fuck. I did laugh like fuck at the ending for S.2 when Coolidge went out the way she did. Super fitting.

    What it made it one of the best TV show that came out in recent times for you?

  2. The White Lotus - stupid rich people doing stupid rich things and getting stupid outcomes. Nobody learns anything and yet it's somehow all kind of entertaining.

    Shrinking - I watched the whole thing and it was good and funny and smart, but fuck if people talked to me like that I'd think I was in a neighbourhood where everybody did coke all the time.

    "more than 30 counts related to business fraud" so i guess not the porn star

     

    indictment to be unsealed in coming days

    I've been reading the number 34 counts being tossed around, but no actual evidence to back it up - the indictment is sealed so not sure where they are getting that number from.

     

    Anyways:

    It makes me feel like a huge manchild that everyone is using this site for books, except me who uses it to download ps1 and N64 roms for my vita

    It's got some amazing stuff to download on it but the web page archive is by far the coolest feature, like this snapshot of WATMM in October 2003 or ebay in January 1999

    ROMS are an amazing part of the archive along with old DJ setlist too, discovered lots of old arcade games that became my favourites thru it. 

    This is why its so much more than a library. Like my public library is dope - they lend musical instruments, have makerspaces, etc. but look at all this knowledge that is up on archive. Intellectual Property laws need significant change. Lawrence Lessig kind of got at it 12 years ago (earlier than that actually but this speech to the World Intellectual Property Organization is amazing) here. 30 minutes well spent.

    fcuk those copyrights.  hopefully they argue that internet archive is acting as a library.. which also lends out books. 

    But libraries pay for hard copies of the books and have special copyright laws?

    They need to argue they are something else, because they are so very important in preserving human knowledge and culture (like that amazing film "In Our Garden").

    can't get better than these.... excellent quality/price ratio... I notice some artifacts on extremely high frequencies but besides that... I bet no ipod user could tell the difference... I've let them get wet and fell plenty of times, still good as new, have them for about 4 years now... battery wise as well, no difference from when I bought them... incredibly light, use them daily for several hours straight and they don't make my ears hurt... they fit like a glove ?

    I have some buds, but I want proper headphones for traveling so that people can see straight away not to bother talking to me.

    Plus headphones are much cooler for wearing and not listening to anything.
