There must be better things I can spend my time doing...like rampantly masturbating or something.

Brave GNU World

Hey, that's a real BAD PUN! I wish I'd thought of that!
OK, well, there's not much to say about this thing, except there's this new Web- loggy magazine thing that is all about the GNU project.
It's by a guy named "Georg," which is a cool name. It sounds like a James Bond villain name. Like a guy with a real big head who tries to kill James Bond. It's too bad that Georg didn't get the domain name ge.org, because that would be cool. But another German guy got that, so I guess it's all right.
If I had the ge.org domain, and my name was Georg, I would probably let anyone else named Georg have an account there, so like if their name was "Georg Busey" or something, they could have the url http://ge.org/busey/ as their home page. Sorta like in solidarity with other guys named Georg. The same would work for, like, ja.net or johnn.ie or something.
Oh! But "Brave GNU World" is what I was talking about. It's a good site. It's got lots of GNU info. Like, the new GCC-based Java compiler is covered. Which is cool. AND there's other stuff. Go look now.

My dear and close friend, Porn Maven Shannon Mariemont, sent me a titillating message the other day about her new project: the PornOrchestra. Her desire, at most, is to reinvent the porn soundtrack and, at least, to receive a cease-and-desist order like all her cool friends did last year. (More...)
The Deep Dark Underbelly of the Star Wars Myth, or Ramayana Remembered
It's a fact: Star Wars is a blatant plagiarism of an ancient Asian legend, and the long lines of devout Star Wars freaks are really unscrupulous Asian copyright busters. From Indonesia to Thailand to Nepal, videos are available for sale or rent before they're even released in the US and UK due to this nerdy camcorder-clutching bunch. (More...)
Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (More...)
