No clue. I haven't seen it yet. - Akiva Moskovitz

Keep rockin' it, Nathan! - Akiva Moskovitz
it's a good film and has funny moments, but i find it really depressing overall. mebbe i'm just too thenthitive. - Joe Silence is not dead
Why the sudden lisp on 'sensitive', Dead Silence? - Akiva Moskovitz

@Akiva: i had my finger in my mouse. - Joe Silence is not dead
Just making sure that wasn't some rip on gays. - Akiva Moskovitz
rest assured, that sort of thing will never come out of me. thanks for making that assumption about me, tho. - Joe Silence is not dead
That was my 2nd DVD ever purchased back in '97. . . if I had blue ray, I would at least rent it just to see what the quality is like (especially. . . .the big board!!). - Peter Ghosh

Alex Poole - Literature Review - Serif vs. Sans Serif Legibility - http://www.alexpoole.info/academi...
Serif versus sans-serif for viewing on the web. A review of the available research which concludes that there is probably little difference but that more methodologically sound research might come down on one side or the other - mattpovey

@storagebod Ah. The joy of operations. It could be worse, you could be using 'Quetzal' - truly the worse call management system in the world
We just started seriously using JIRA at work and it is really slick. I like it a lot. - Peter Kelley
That actually looks like an interface designed by a human. Quetzal I think was designed by aliens. - mattpovey

Still loving the new Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Highly recommended.
It is very good - I especially like the acoustic bonus tracks at the end (if you don't have them they're worth getting). - Martin Bryant
I actually bought the CD (stupidly expensive here in AU) but think they might be missing. Need to check I have the lot at some point. I did a side-by-side last night though and reckon Fever to Tell still tips it :). This album is very Ladytron (esp. with the female vocals). - mattpovey

Having lived in a country in which the socialist party has ruled off and on for the past thirty years, I can attest that I’ve never been sent to a re-education camp. When I’m sick, I go to a doctor for free. Four weeks of vacation is standard. The streets aren’t full of desperately ill homeless people. Mass transit is fantastic.

Ah the power of fettering. An amazing thing to fetter, it turns otherwise horrid things into vaguely acceptable things ;) - mattpovey
America needs to find the happy medium between the two extremes. But most people are set in their ways. It will be a hard sell to convince people to pay more taxes or to give up their capitalistic trappings. - Jeff P. Henderson

Nice... but I still like the Enter key mat better - Herb Hernandez
Bad workman blames his tool Robert ;) - mattpovey
Some of your FF posts are going missing. FF does not match Twitter. - Cait

Lindsey is Fierce!
Spring is definitely here. I just heard the ice cream man ^-^
I scream, you scream, we all scream for...heroin! - Mark Wilson
If I had pants on . . you'd be talking to someone eating ice cream - Lindsey is Fierce!
So you'd be in your panties??? - David Cook
j/k, you don't have to answer that! =) - David Cook
Careful David... It's a trap... She may be wearing a dress. - Johnny Worthington
You're walking on thin ice, Mr. Cook. - Mark Wilson
Ruh roh! - Daniel Bruce
Just kidding Mark!!! Totally kidding!!! =D - David Cook
I'll forgive you...this time. lol - Mark Wilson
all my flavors are guaranteed to satisfyyyyyyy! - Jim Hearts FF
I'm 32 flavors and then some? - Lindsey is Fierce!
Presumably it's just off the ship from Australia where there is a definite chill in the air. - mattpovey

I probably shouldn't mention the fact that in California the ice cream man never stops coming around ... - Laura Norvig
Out of our 4 regular ice cream trucks, only 1 takes the winter off. This doesn't even include the 3 regular ice cream guys who push carts. Rain or shine, they come around. I'd imagine that even in snow, they'd still show up. - Anika
I like having seasons ;) - Lindsey is Fierce!
I don't. California weather @ all times, please. thx - Kamilah Gill
Kamilah, did you fall in love with San Diego? :) - Anika
Um, yes (sh, don't tell Harold! ;) ) - Kamilah Gill
SD is like that, though for me, it's nice for a day trip, but I wouldn't want to live there. - Anika
It does have some practicality and cost issues, but it's still amazing. Can't I get something with public transit, walking paths, etc. without the high costs and earthquakes/fires/mudslides? - Kamilah Gill
Well, the earthquakes, fire and mudslides rarely hit the most lived in areas of SD. My beef is the people. If they weren't there & it got hotter, I'd totally move there. LOL - Anika
Hehe, no ice cream man here yet, he's late! :-( - Kol Tregaskes

39 Olympic Logos From 1924 to 2012 - http://www.webdesignerdepot.com/2009...
Love this collection. Ironically I have no interest in the Olympics, never watch it. - Joe Bland
Helsinki 1952 and California 1960. Lovely. Seemingly the world of design fell in the toilet after 1988 though as they're universally horrid from that point on. - mattpovey

Just got an SMS from Vic Police warning about tomorrow's extreme weather. I guess that's gone to everyone in Vic?
Would prefer that Vic Police did not SMS me, no matter what the reason. - Joe Bland
Yeah. This one might be a good idea but god knows what they'll use it for next. - mattpovey

The Audacity Of Gulp: President Obama Enjoys A Frosty Beverage At Wizards Game
He's always doing such likeable things in his downtime. <3 - fn (fairnymph)
Against the Bulls? Wonder who he was rooting for? - Rob H.
Derrick Rose FTW!!!!!!!!! - Mona Nomura
Chi-town of course - jamar78
If Obama is a true Chicagoan, he rooted for the other team. Bulls seem to suck lately - €€€€€€€€
what a bad ass we have for a prez! - Ňicķ
gotta love a Prez that can enjoy a frosty brew in public!! - BEX
Only a godless commie hell-bent on destroying the country could enjoy himself that much in public. For shame! - Internet's Tad
He'll be jonesing for a ciggie after that. - mattpovey
lol Tad :D - fn (fairnymph)
the juxtaposition of the president of the US and the kid next to him who has not a care in the world is kind of humorous - Cee Bee
The kid is probably a Secret Service agent. ;-) - cmiper
LOL...didn't even notice the kid - jamar78
Did he get any court time? :P - Chris Dahl
An indication he may stay sane during his term. - Eric @ CS Techcast
I wonder if the kid next to him even has an idea of who he is stting next to :) - Steven Hodson
I love this image. It great that Obama doesn't hide from the public like most of our Pres'. - tomit
the real question for beer makers: WHAT brand of beer is he drinking? - .LAG liked that
I love that President Obama relaxes by going to the Wizards game and having a beer! - JMaultasch

Scans of the brilliant 1980s pamphlet 'Leeds and THE BOMB' produced by Leeds City Council to terrify, fascinate (and sow a love of diagrams) their populace. Describes in detail and with strangely lovely diagrams, what effect a one megaton bomb would likely have on the city of Leeds in Yorkshire, England. - mattpovey
