I'd pray for you, but I think my alignment is low enough that you'd be hit with lightning after you get fired, so. . .good luck!

Sorry to confuse you, but I was actually transcribing the thoughts of the Fox anchor interviewing Murdoch. Go to the previous page for context.

But I will take your prayer, kind sir, and funnel it into getting a job in the coming months, which I do sorely need.

On a related note, say that I wanted to live in Japan for a while and sustain myself there through some, 'job', let's vulgarly name it, does any of you have any leads on how to do that? I speak half a word of Japanese. Ideally there'd be some programme or other, but they've all dried up in this climate. I'm looking at my options.

[EDIT] Waittaminute, this isn't the Life topic at all! I'm moving this there.

Ah, fair enough! I declined to watch it, because well, FOX News. I like my current amount of braincells.

I'm not really going to be able to explain how Cosmic Panda makes YouTube flow more easily, just enable it and watch a few videos. A few key points:

  • 3 video window size buttons
  • Playlists no longer a bar at the bottom but actually integrated into the site
  • Switch between viewing comments and ratings and viewing a full screen of related videos, while retaining the related videos sidebar on comments screen
  • Nicer color scheme, smoother shapes

The Louize Boat!

I don't appreciate what they're doing in any capacity (LulzSec, that is) but that is just fantastic.

It's kind of weird to me that hackers and hacking have finally become a part of the mainstream news. It's all getting a bit cyberpunk. I find it fascinating as to how our cultures will digest their existence.

I also note how News Corp are trying to muddy the waters by mixing in talk of internet hacking groups on top of the phone hacking scandals.

There is a clear moral distinction there, no matter if you disagree with both: relatively few individuals working on own initiative with no backing and targeting large corporations; vs large very wealthy corporations targeting individuals.

Yes it is a minority of individuals within those corporations that are responsible for breaking the law, but this is one of the areas of legislation which irks me - CEO's are supposed to be legally accountable for actions of their employees (to the point where they are theoretically required to serve prison time on behalf of the company), but whenever trouble crops up they dissemble and throw lesser employees to the dogs. Big companies want and get it both ways and that pisses me off, whereas individuals have no such recourse. You can call me a dirty socialist now if you like :P

Not sure if this features in your reasoning, but don't forget a few years ago the law recognised that companies themselves can have the rights given to a 'person'.

I honestly feel kind of bad for her. After seeing The Runaways, the girlfriend and I were quite impressed by her and she looked into her stuff. By all accounts, she's quite talented but feels incredibly awkward in any kind of "live" situation and gets incredibly nervous during interviews, leading to the behaviour being mocked in that vid. It makes me sad that the Twilight association will dog her career for all time now, when apart from that she shows quite a lot of promise as a legitimate performer.

I then remember that she may be set for life thanks to starring in Twilight and feel less bad for her, but it still seems kind of cheap to just take potshots at her like that, especially for something like being nervous with interviewers.

I'm way behind on Giant Bombcasts and I got up to the 06-28-2011 show when I came across this:

Are you sure you're just not making excuses for her being stoned?

Hmm. Well this video wasn't an attack on her talent, but I'd not heard that she was well known for getting nervous in interviews.
