Hulu

Hulu is coming.

What exactly is Hulu? Well, I'm not totally sure because I'm not in the beta program, but apperently its a streaming video service from NBC that streams free, high quality movies, TV shows, etc, with commercial breaks. With all the handy dandy social media tools (embed, share, etc) that YouTube has us addicted to, without all the blocky pixels. Just to see if it works, I've embedded a full length Simpson's episode, after the jump. Enjoy.

Ghost in the machine

I've been playing with Leopard, the new Mac OSX since Friday and so far, I'm experiencing quite a few performance hiccups which dragged my productive day down. But all that's been blown away by the geekiness factor of the effects in iChat AV. They were already pretty cool, but already an enterprising FX programmer has created some unofficial additions. This is me as a blue ghost - when it's live video, it's ultra cool. Follow this thread for easy instructions on how to install.

Age Discrimination
rolf.jpgYou hear stories about guys who assume that paying for a date means they get laid, and women who don’t think so, and the spats those differing expectations can cause. But this is ridiculous!
...aging German playboy Rolf Eden seems to have developed a somewhat warped view of what age discrimination actually is. According to Bild Zeitung on Thursday, the 77-year-old Eden has filed suit against a 19-year-old Berlin woman for the following reason: Despite a night on the town with Eden, which ended back at his place, she refused to have sex with him, saying the he was too old for her.

"That was shattering. No woman has ever said that to me before,"

Um, maybe the memory problems are kicking in, Rolf. This lawsuit is either a publicity stunt or a case of uncontrolled hubris, but it does bring up some issues. Would there ever be a world where it would be a crime to be discriminating as to who you shag? Is this guy justified in thinking they had an implied transaction that was agreed to when he bought the champagne? And just what did she think was going to happen after being wined and dined by a 77-year-old milllionaire?

Top Ten Fake UFO clips on YouTube

This week, I'm going to run a few posts on UFOs and Aliens, a subject that's been dear to my heart since I was a kid. It's to coincide with "I'll Believe You", a new movie some friends of mine worked on that's released in a couple of weeks, so make sure you check out the trailer here. Great family movie.

Todays selection of clips were pretty easy to organize - the ten best fake UFO clips on YouTube. Of course, I'm only assuming they're fake, but I think that's a pretty safe bet. Tomorrow's post will be clips that I think could possibly be real, which is proving much trickier. If you have any clips that you think should fit into that category, let me know.

404 Error

Whoops! We're not sure if it was your fault or ours (probably yours, we're good that way) but you've encountered a FATAL ERROR!!! Or at least, a pretty grumpy one.

Specifically the Latvians who run our server are telling us in a weird accent "Smarty error: [in evaluated template line 5]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'mtfeed' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 580), Comrade!". Ain't life a bitch.

If you want to vent, email our slacker of a webmaster. Otherwise, we'd suggest going back, using search, or clicking around aimlessly on this page like a moron.

Have fun.
