  1. "They only live in captivity..."

    They fail to mention in the video that Ligers are also infertile, incapable of producing offspring themselves much like mules.

    Disgusting fact that you didn't want to know: the shared DNA % between Lions and Tigers, and Horses and Donkeys that allow crossbreeding and infertile offspring is the same % shared by Humans and Chimpanzees.

  2. Seats 4 in comfort.... reaches 65.... affordable... the People's car....

    Hitler's master plan? The VW Bug?

    Those were his specifications for the "People's Car" (pretty much the translation of Volkswagen).

    Watched an excellent doc on the history of VW a while back. Great stuff.

  3. Aesop Rock - None Shall Pass

    The album is good. Aesop was already a departure from mainstream hip-hop, but on this one, he went out on a limb and ditched El-P's production.

    Some people who like a more techy sound may enjoy this album thoroughly. On top of that, Aesop is nearly unparalleled in lyrical delivery.

  4. If they want to return to the 90's, then they need to learn to settle for what it was in the 90's. Lots of independent labels selling a solid 1 million, not one large label selling 15 million.

    I was a bay area fan in the mid 90's, and for the most part heard very few of the songs that I listened to make it anywhere even approaching main stream.

    Of course, at the time, if you weren't LL Cool J, MTV didn't play you. Now MTV doesn't have anything to do with music at all.

    Who'da thunk it.

  5. When I first started surfing on 28.8k Dial-up, I used nothing but Netscape. I didn't even know about IE for a long time.

    After it began coming "packaged" with windows, I'd simply uninstall it, and install Netscape again.

    The beginning of the fade can't just be pegged to Microsoft or Apple, or anything like that. What began the fall was people's web pages back in the Dialup days. A good deal of sites weren't written in a code that supported Netscape browsing. Users were forced to at least run IE as an alternative, and then for convenience, as their main browser.

    Following that, you could blame Firefox, as the time, attention, and popularity of non IE browsers on PC fell on them.

    Microsoft? Apple?

    Neh. We the people are to blame. Both Apple and Microsoft innovate, as did Netscape, but they innovate in ways they think the people want them to be. Mozilla allowed us to shape it ourselves.

  6. People may shuffle tracks around, but if you like an artist, you want to hear more, not less.

    True.

    However, if they put together a shitty album, I want to hear less shit, not more.

    Where is the "List the albums you love beginning-to-end" thread?

  7. Ok... Dude, you posted a link to an interview with Trent Renor and hip-hop artist Saul Williams, and someone had mentioned they DL'd the album.

    Well, you can download the whole album at 192kb for a suggested price of $5, or for free at Saul Williams' website, Right Here. Mine's on the way.

    Reznor told Wired "his work on The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of NiggyTardust is the most involved he's been with any non-NIN project since he worked with Marilyn Manson on Antichrist Superstar."

    Enjoy.

  8. Fuck it. I'm banning Dude and E_C to make myself feel better.

    Sorry JWhitt, we get so many spammers that I'm a little cynical.

    Is that so we can have more cuddle time for Christmas, sweetie?

    :wub:
