Osaka Bang is back
You might remember the video I posted about Osaka culture last month – it got taken down once by the Yomiuri TV goonsquad and I couldn’t find another instance… Well someone has put it back up, with subtitles this time! If you didn’t see it the first time, it’s definitely worth a watch.
A message to my Facebook using friends
If you’ve posted anything beyond a recognizable photo on Facebook, you are bound to learn the hard way. That’s my take on it, anyway. Between Facebook’s TOS and willingness to sell you out – yes, YOU, dumbass! – there isn’t a whole lot of hope.
I don’t post about this in spite. I write about this in hope that you might OPEN YOUR EYES. Nothing can come good of a private corporation owning rights to reproduction and usage of your personal data. Get a fucking clue already. Corporations exist to increase shareholder value. Unless you are a shareholder, you are just an asset. Don’t be a fool to boot.
Latest SONY Release
NSFW. Maybe NSFA.
Fascinating article on the Amish
I never knew there were different kinds; the selective technology adoption reminds me of one of the later Stainless Steel Rat books, when said rat visits a planet utilizing steam and coal in modern vehicles.
The title of the article could be a Robot Chicken production: Amish Hackers
Note: This is more informative but less groovalicious than the Amish Drifting video.
Wan Macha Fish Sanctuary
We visited what’s possibly the greatest tourist attraction in Mahasarakham again (well, besides the new Big C, of course).
FWD FTW (4WD FTW?)
Wow, YouTube’s new embedding of titles on the opening frame kinda gives away the punchline, doesn’t it?
No Pad Thai for Veoh
“Veoh is no longer available in THAILAND. If you are not in THAILAND or think you have received this message in error, please go to veoh.com and report the issue.”
So the big question is, if I keep receiving this message in error when trying to visit veoh.com (and nothing else loads), how the hell do I “go to veoh.com and report the issue?”
Brilliant.
Also, the rule being broken here is that you can’t take away something you already offered for free (especially without good explanation). To the Veoh guy I helped last year at the US consulate in Bangkok: This surely isn’t the full potential for Thailand that you spoke of, is it?
