  1. of course this bozo feels compelled to use sexist images of women. objectifying pictures of women. CAN YOU PUT A TRIGGER ON THIS OR SOMETHING? jesus christ. I fucking hate Tedtalks now.
  2. Well he does get it from blogs, which is open to anyone that wants to look at it. Kinda like libraries- the books are out there it is just that now they are easier to find.
  3. This poor guys going to find nothing but lies to deal with when working with the news media or the current administration. What's a bunch of falsehoods,evasions and outright deciet look like swirling in a circle? Oh yeah DC.....
  4. i can't get the universe to work :(
  5. gaps GAPS
  6. Is it weird that he looks so much like Mark Zuckerberg? Could be his identical twin in many ways.
  7. Very very impressive. Funny how the comments don't recognize this as a great amount of work
  8. heath ledger!!!
  9. This is the first TED talk I've quit halfway through. I saw an amusing webtoy, but nothing more. He thinks he's going to get reliable data from BLOGS? Okay, the subjects don't know they're being "interviewed", but they know full well they're being READ, and the content of their "personal" blogs has more to do with keeping an audience they enjoy than actually baring their souls. This data might have some sociological significance, but not as a picture of the emotional state of the web.
  10. UH UH UH UH UH UH LEARN TO PUBLIC SPEAK
  11. I want his laptop...
  12. @Bhairaviji Great quote. Thanks for sharing

  14. The picture looks exactly like universe: 75% of dark matter and tiny spots of bright elements
