it didn't take me long to figure out it was sys0p and how he did it tbh

i'm not convinced testo was BM though. is that a verified fact?

watched this. eye-opening, but i felt that the various contributors underestimated the possibility of human ingenuity overcoming the problem of energy

for one thing, there's consumption: can technology be adapted to use less energy to do the same thing (or more)? also energy production: can this be made more efficient to ensure net energy output? these are scientific and technological problems, and we've never been in such a good position to solve them. mostly the doc gives off this message of dark doom and 'shrinkage' and only at the end made even a mention of anything better

If any of you have heard about the new Sean Penn movie, Milk, see The Times of Harvey Milk instead or as well. Still one of the best docs I've ever seen.

I watched I Am A Sex Addict the other day and it was pretty hilarious. Plus, you know, lots of whores and whatnot.

True that. I just thought it might be a bit too "special-interest" (given the amount of GFX-people who frequent this board, a major brain-fart on my behalf.)

Tried to find a good site that streams end of suburbia but couldn't find one. The only one I did find looks so shitty you can't even tell what you're looking at.

Just saw "Victor Borge: 100 Years of Music and Laughter" on PBS. Dude is hilarious. Don't know if there's a version available for download anywhere, but you can probably find snippets on youtube.

This one's brand new and is on BBC iPlayer (it was on TV last night)
Horizon: Do You Know What Time It Is?

Particle physicist Professor Brian Cox asks, 'What time is it?' It's a simple question and it sounds like it has a simple answer. But do we really know what it is that we're asking?
