Chuck Norris does some fantastic acting for commercial
I hope the $500k they paid him made it worth his time to walk through that doorway.

Lousy connection to one youtube cluster (Geek Talk Post)
I believe there are browser extensions that claim to be "download accelerators" for videos. I had one that went into action whenever I watched a video.

Kucinich v. O'Reilly
Kunich handled himself well, I thought, and he and Bill know not to take it so seriously that they can't laugh about it after their debate is over.

Insulting conservatives as inferior human beings ("boot-lickers," "lizards") and telling them to get out of the country is beneath you, Rougy.

U.S.A. to disappear in 50 years, predicts Paul Saffo
I'm sorry guys, I have to say that I'm bad at satire (above).

I agree with QM that the inevitable result of our technological progress is freeing humankind from drudgery, and that free markets are the fastest path to that.

I do think we can reach a natural socialist utopia, but I feel like socialism today can distract people from the lesson of capitalism; everybody benefits most - and life is most satisfying - when you work both smart and hard and live up to your potential.

I also think DFT makes a good case that good regulation can be essential

^QM, you mention "money." Have you ever considered that plutocratic, kleptocratic, oligarchic, oiligarchic, fascist, technocratic "money" is a social construction to restrict the people's inherent right to 21st century medicine, information techology, and other fruits of the free market our natural socialist utopia?

It's an interesting proposal anyway; people who are pro-choice or pro-life, or socialist or libertarian could just move to a city-state that predominately shares their views (and reap the benefits/costs).

Crowd Chants "F*ck FOX News!" live on FOX News!
Funny video, but I believe the purpose of protesting is to draw attention to an issue and convince society the issue is reasonable and important. In this case, the protesters got their laughs, but Fox News played them like pawns.

Inside Edition Tours the Home the McCains Sold in 2006
Conservative leaders have been making "elitism" a regular part of their attack plan, so I think that's the source of the ironic humor found in McCain being so wealthy that he doesn't know how many houses he owns.

Inside Edition Tours the Home the McCains Sold in 2006
It's easier to justify the outsize rewards society bestows upon innovators like Larry Page and Sergey Brin, the founders of Google. They have a lavish slice of the pie, but they made the pie bigger for everyone, whether you're in Silicon Valley, Hong Kong or anywhere in between.
