Wow, what the hell. I typed "ineffable" instead of "indisputable" in a post just now. I was reading about the Ephesia Grammata in another window, so I guess my brain just kinda jumped tracks?

Ah, OK. I'm not at all convinced, these days; I'd be much more worried by the people who run ISPs and the big routers (just as an example).

True. But the power to bring it all down? That's definitely more in the hands of the techies.

"Any sufficiently analyzed magic is indistinguishable from science."

I really like this freshly-coined quote. I hope it spreads into common usage.

THANK you. I don't like what changes I've seen when I scanned 4.0, and according to most people 3.5 isn't enough of a departure form 3.0 to justify buying the books if you don't have to.

Hot damn. I'll be the ghost in Vivid's shell anytime.

Hahahahaha....


I can't believe I didn't think of that when I saw her set.

A bagel without cream cheese is like life without parole.

Yeah, it's hard to get involved in threads about things like religion. I realize I shouldn't speak up about stuff because if I say something on the side of religion then I'm a bible thumper but it boggles my mind why so much hatred and ignorance can be posted all of the time. Not just that subject, but many. On this site it's almost as if there are packs of wolves that run the show and the lines of opinion. Heaven forbid you have a differing opinion, or you'll have them personally attacking you.

I'm all for healthy debate but lets just be cool about it. I don't care if you believe in God or not. But for you to infer that all Christians are behind the whole Prop 8 debacle or the like is just fucking retarded.

There will always be good and bad in everything. Which is what I tried to explain to [member+Toku666].

I wanted to thank you for the exemplary explanation of Brad Warner's column earlier this week.

New computer. Well, old computer that was close to SOTA two years ago, served me well for a year and a half, and then went into storage because of a bad CPU. Replaced the CPU, upgraded to a GeForce 9600, replaced the RAM. The system I'd been using in the interim was pretty bad--in order to raid, I had to have all my settings bottomed...

I found it more accurately represented the issues at hand, as opposed to "feminazi" which implies fascism rather than assholishness.

You're probably right that nobody would have publicly objected if it had been McCain who was the target. Though I tend to see it as evidence of - and more importantly, serving to maintain - an underlying misogyny, and I have been known to say so privately.

I'd apply the same reasoning to "queer" and "faggot", by the way. It's easier to get people to see the point with the racial epithets, but I agree that the cases are not handled identically.

I agree that simple berating achieves very little, and I do apologise for somehow missing that that was part of your point.

That's how I feel. Luckily, the number of femidouches is still low enough that i have no problem calling myself a feminist.

Headline on CNN: Did cloned dogs solve sex scandal?

Fuck science fiction, we're living in the post-cyberpunk apocalypse.

Sometimes, being a freelance web designer is fun. Other times, you have to stay up past 6am creating a demo, and after spending 45m working with a file, you realize that a converter has cut off the last ten seconds of the presentation for no god damn reason at all.

Beats fucking around in the desert, I suppose.

From about age 13 to age 20--looking back, it's hard to believe it was only seven years; time seems to stretch further the younger you are--I thought I wanted to draw comic books. I took quite a few art classes; my senior year, my courseload was comprised of one hour of english, one hour of gym, and four hours of art (including a study hall...
