Class Worrier
I wonder how much inadvertently opening a PDF -- without warning -- increased my carbon footprint?

A History of Techno
Are those "official" in any way or just a weird youtube trend?
Home made videos. Weird YouTube trend.
Real Aphex Twin videos are quite awesome.

Sign, Sign, everywhere a sign.
You cannot get a ticket for exceeding the number on a yellow speed sign, at least in my state.
No, but it's my understanding -- at least in my state -- that you can get cited for reckless driving if you noticeably exceed this limit. There's always a way they can pop you.

An Illustrated History of Digital Cameras
Woo, my Kodak DC20 is on there! I think it held eight 640x480 images on its on-board memory.
I still have the receipt, too, and every once in a while, I pull it out of a drawer and say to whoever is around, "god DAMN, this receipt is 12 years old!"

Don't Need A Titular Line.
I booked a few shows for Mr. Schaffer back in the day, and he really is a lot funnier than what his YouTube videos make it out to seem. He's got a ton of catchy beats and clever lyrics that really go over well in a smoky bar that's packed to the gills. Plus I got a free shirt, yo.

Internet People!
I thought it was pretty good, and sad that I recognized 99% of the memes referenced.

50 capitals in 50 days
I don't think they were trying to adhere to any sort of pure hitchhiking standards, as they laid out their intentions in before leaving on their About page:
"The rules of Hitch50 are simple. We can't pay for ANY transportation. And we must get a photo in front of every state capitol building in 50 days or less."'
To me, it seemed more about seeing how the Internet can help two guys visit every state capital in 50 days or less, rather... [more]

Is Glenn Beck a Dumb Ass?
I'm sorry but this is completely taken out of context. Here's the statement in full:
BECK: OK. No offense, and I know Muslims. I like Muslims. I've been to mosques. I really don't believe that Islam is a religion of evil. I -- you know, I think it's being hijacked, quite frankly.
With that being said, you are a Democrat. You are saying, "Let's cut and run." And I have to tell you, I have been nervous about this interview with you,... [more]

2sheets, thank you for the nice comments. And I understand why some people might be igorant enough to believe that my religion leads them to believe I might eat babies, so I will address the issue with you.

Muslim UCLA student tasered for not having ID
posted by squirrel What really disgusts me is that the mob of students didn't bum rush the situation as it was going down. Rent-a-cops torturing a student with a taser in the middle of the library?! Fuck no.
They are hardly rent a cops.
"Police officers of the UCLA Police Department are duly sworn peace officers under section 830.2(b) of the California Penal Code. The officers of the department are armed and possess the... [more]

Maybe one more chicken?
Way back when the Internets were first born, I remember seeing an image of a VW bug with about 20 feet of shit stacked on top of it. It looked like it was taken in Mexico. Haven't seen it since. Any help?

Hitchhiking 50 capitals in 50 days
Cool idea, but starting a website and soliciting rides from people online isn't really hitchhiking. If this gets any sort of press at all, it totally defies "hitchhiking" as a sustainable means of transportation. It does, however, reaffirm one's ability to solicite rides from your website, with a dash of hitchhiking thrown in.
