Shift

Use the shift key to change black to white, get the key and make it to the door: Shift. Good one.

Dual Booting

Anyone ever dual boot Windows and Linux? It’s about time for me to do a reinstall and I was toying with that option. Safe or no?

Frozen Grand Central

As noted before, I’m a fan of Improv Everywhere. One of their newer projects has people all stopping movement at the same exact time in Grand Central Station. Well done, it’s quite surreal.

The Simpsons Movie Premiere

Remember the contest that cities competed in for the Simpsons Movie premiere? Ed dropped by and posted an update to the story. It appears that everyone who actually did something for the video got screwed out of actually attending the premiere themselves. Classy.

We Are the World?

Watch celebrity impersonators perform We Are the World on Japanese television and become as transfixed as I was. The Bruce Springsteen one killed me for some reason.

I love me a good conspiracy theory. The new look at Robert Kennedy’s assassination has me interested.

Pirate Bay Filtered?

Does Yahoo! filter Pirate Bay from search results? The magic 8-ball says yes. While many if not most of the torrents on that site are illegal due to copyright infringement, it’s a bit distressing to see such a big search engine filtering. What else has been deemed unworthy?

Oh, Prince and the Village People are suing the Pirate Bay too.

White Dwarf

Collect the green circles while avoiding the red. Cash out by hitting a blue one. White Dwarf, the name may be meh but the game is fun.

HotOrNot Acquired For $20 Million

HotOrNot has reportedly been purchased for $20 Million. People still visit HotOrNot? Seriously, I thought that it died years ago.

Annie Award Movie Dubs

EDIT: The video can now be found at boingboing. Thanks to an anonymous commenter for pointing me to the link.

Watch/listen to the cast of Spongebob Squarepants dub their characters over lines from Casablanca, Singin’ In the Rain and The Godfather. Hey, I found it entertaining.

Anonymous Vs. Scientology Updates

If you’re at all interested in the protests against The Church of Scientology (not the religion mind you) happening tomorrow (today? well the 10th anyways) here are some links of interest:

Something Awful Protest Report Thread

Twitter: The Perth Raid (one of the first protests due to the time zone). Nothing is there as of this writing, but I expect good things.

Anonymous vs. Scientology (Part Deux!). The first Something Awful thread on the subject reached 200 pages and then this was opened. Talk of live protests start around the page linked here. You can also start at the beginning and spend the day there if you like.

Post-Game. A forum on Enturbulation for after/during the protest reports.

The Dallas Tapes

This collection of videos surrounding the death of John F. Kennedy is a great find if you’ve never seen them. The Dallas Tapes has an interview with Oswald’s wife that I’ve never seen among others.

Drumming to Super Mario 2

This video of Andrea Vadrucci drumming to the music of Super Mario 2 is crazy. His drum set is gigantic and some of the beats here are amazing.
