    best multi protocol IM for mac?

    not many of em do webcams.... but who wants them really? we use video at Fermilab, but we have a posh expensive (useless) professional system. i use kopete now but used to use gaim for multi - IM... these are the kde and gnome desktop linux applications, they have BSD/MacOS builds but i think...

    favourite recent grime lyrics

    "there's so many stiff feet out in the crowd" and "i dont think raves have gone worse, i just think people are shy to dance first" anything that comes out of snipekeedo, "it is garage at the end of the day" and devlin. especially when its (hormonal voice shaking) talking about his nan, or his...

    Excellent new 9/11 video

    the argument that its a 'desired outcome' holds that vietnam was a victory for a certain set of people because it crippled the ability of an independent communist country with resources and potential to be successful. vietnam is fucked up and poor cos it got naplamed and rome plowed, but this is...

    they showed kaspar hauser in my laboratory a few weeks ago........... its got the "funny little guy" in :( anyway the story is nuts isnt it? its all real - true life. i think thats one cool thing about a lot of these herzog films. Aguirre was a real guy, Fitzcarraldo was (maybe) the Grizzly guy...

    AIDS: conspiracy or reality?

    i think you have to imagine yourself as an american to understand how you could think the existence of AIDS is debateable. (hmmm that wasnt meant to sound rude... i cant really think of a better way, so that will have to stand). i'm not going to discuss the thesis, 'cause i dont think it...

    you used to be able to get Beckett's Film form that WFMU ubuweb thing but they had to take it down at the request of the copyright owners.... howwwwwwwever if your sceptical about how much truck beckett would hold with restrictions on access to work enforced by an dead man's estate you can...

    back on recommendations:::::::::::::::::::::::: henry hills --------------- kino da. nice short mashup of mayakovsky. nothing too difficult. no thought. just sonically pleasureable. i'd recommend his documentary(?) film Money, but its a bit long for something that i primarily want to leave to...

    ha! it was already so clear that she wasnt having an affair. that bit was just stupid. i dont think it even occured to me that it could be his child, thier relationship was so carefully left open that they had to be setting up a twist. then it dragged on and onnnnnnnn for me that was a...

    mac questions!!

    isnt transcoding between lossy formats a really bad idea? i'm not advocating using wma (or indeed mp3) but once something is encoded you're better off installing the codec and using it as it is. unless you can re-rip from the uncompressed cds. do a search for mplayer, which is a media player...

    Indie Rock or wot?!?

    yeah, casual dots are okay... the two billotte sisters who were the two singers in quixotic and slant 6 are now in two different bands. casual dots and white magic, the later is more like the slower black sabbath end of quixotic :) also i thought casual dots themselves were no more. quixotic are...

    Indie Rock or wot?!?

    Glass Candy are extremely variable............ and the records that they actually put out arnt always that representative of what theyre doing. i think thier label had to hold them down and force them to put out an LP. Whats properly good in my opinion is the tour demos they put out on home made...

    An appeal for good Mac shareware

    the best way to get a really cheap computer at the moment has to be linux on the old x-box. it has ethernet, dvd player, usb for keyboard and mouse, 10GB harddrive and i expect with every kid upgrading to 360s theyre for sale very cheaply. you can even send away and have some one else install...

    Third world cinema.

    what i meant was that a nation by nation break down of who is rich and who is poor which is implied by first world /third world (maybe only to my mind...) is a bit old. It doesnt admit the fact that there are bigger disparities than ever between rich and poor within each country, and that this...

    Third world cinema.

    i dont think i'd even describe city of god as third world. just because of its very polished production and its mentality which almost paralells those brit ganster flicks... it seems to be concieved to be about those people but not for them. it's therefore a film about the third world made by...

    Pasolini

    hawks and sparrows is very silly, but cheered me up when i was stuck up a mountain in a cloud on the edge of vancouver. i'd recommend it, whether youre in a cloud or not. but i also like the later epic things. for thier campery and (retrospective) monty pythonism, but also for the amazing...
