my fax to christopher hayes re: #nocleanfeed
I find it extremely disconcerting that this issue has gone as far as it has. This plan is riddled with both ethical and technical dilemas. If, as the government claims, the aim is to stop child pornography the plan has failed before it has even begun; the internet is designed to bypass such blockages - just ask the Chinese or Iranian government. There are already countless numbers of offshore...

ALP Logic
When 1% of internet users opt-in for filtering and there’s no slow down of the internet it must mean that if 100% of users are forced into filtering there will be no internet slow down. Jesus fucking Christ.
“Managing director of Nelson Bay Online, Patrick Sayer, said only 1 per cent of his entire customer base decided to opt-into the system, resulting in just 15 users.
When asked if...

Over the weekend CNN’s Howard Kurtz asked America the burning question, “are we going overboard with this Twitter business?” Meanwhile, CNN virtually ignored an event overseas with the potential to alter world history, an event reported extensively by Twitter users.
Oh, such delicious irony.
When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of...

alas, you have caught us red handed. you must now die
- D a v ii d says:
dont worry we have similar scams at coles, you dont really save everyday
in fact, sometimes we put "on special" tickets on things that arent really on special. and you know what? people buy more of the shit.
- rageeb™ - says:
so it's the same price as before with just a 'special' sticker on it?
- D a v ii d says:
yep, the sticker is like a psychological drive for people to buy it
and they do...

You can have your fancy iPhones. I’ll stick with my Motorola POS800. Sure, you have fancy “apps” and a “legible screen” and a “functioning phone” but can you match this feature set?
Retractable antenna. By that, I mean the antenna broke off, resulting in a slimmer, more aerodynamic design.

Things that make me smile #1: Rudd's evasiveness
Another unpalatable statistic is the peak figure of projected public debt. Lateline host Tony Jones asked Mr Rudd to spell out the figure in dollar terms - not as a percentage.
TJ: “What is the actual figure?”
KR: “Well Tony, I’m about to come to that, when I go to the constituent parts. About $214 billion comes from a collapse in tax revenue, and that is happening right...

The swine flu is a dangerous virus that will probably become a global pandemic in the near future.
You know what? I think that Mars is just a giant McMuffin. Both these statements have about the same amount of credibility.
The swine flu has killed almost 200 people in Mexico right? Try 7 confirmed deaths by the World Health Organisation:...

The Liberty Tree
The Liberty Tree (1646–1775) was a famous elm tree that stood in Boston, near Boston Common, in the days before the American Revolution. The tree was a rallying point for the growing resistance to the rule of England over the American colonies. In the years that followed, almost every American town had its own Liberty Tree—a living symbol of popular support for individual liberty and resistance to...
A msn chat from a while ago that caused me to lol.
(10: 16 PM) - rageeb™ -: exchange students?
(10: 17 PM) - D a v ı d: yeah, we even have ignorant american exchange students

Hmm..
I have to admit, the UI is very refreshing compared to twitter and the ability to post images is awesome but let’s see if this ends up like my bebo and myspace.
