Public Service Announcement To Those Selling Computers On Craigslist
2009-07-05 11:28:00 Hello, I am a geek. I am your market. Look around. See anybody else with me? It's just me. I can say this because business users buy their computers through other businesses. And the non-geek home users only feel secure buying their computer the same place you did. It's just me. And I'm exploiting my position on purpose. I am, in fact, the most arrogant, condescending, self-important, insufferable computer geek you have ever met. I will dispense with the list of my credentials - suffice it to say that as far as you're concerned or will ever be able to comprehend, I make lightening shoot out of my fingers, have scrolling program code in my eyeballs, and can tell you what Google dreams about in its sleep. My sole interest in your machine is to wipe its hard drive, exorcise the Demons of Microsoft from it, install GNU/Linux or BSD on it (or something else you've never heard of) and add it to my growing hacker den of a home network. Even without the building-up-my-power part, ...
Fireworks: a public service announcement
2009-07-02 18:28:00 Except for officially-sanctioned professional displays (like the July 3rd display at Taste of Chicago) fireworks are illegal to possess or fire off in Illinois. They are not only illegal, they're unsafe...blah, blah, blah.You heard me. Blah, blah, blah. Every year at this time we get subjected to a barrage of news items and public safety press releases reminding us of the dangerous and illegal nature of fireworks. We know already.I have always been dumbfounded by people who call the police to complain about fireworks on the 3rd or 4th of July. It's like calling the cops to complain about your neighbors making noise at their New Year's Eve party. Deal with it. And I've also been amazed by the dummies...

A Public Service Announcement - Against Stupidity in All Its Forms
2009-03-11 16:59:00 There’s a teacher at my old school who’s spreading misinformation based on faulty science and fundamentalist nonsense. No, I’m not talking about Intelligent Design. What’s interesting is that this particular teacher would probably frown on such mindless stupidity. Yet she’s just as bad. She is telling students about the dangers of vaccinating babies and toddlers. “If you ever have children,” she tells her students, “don’t get them vaccinated. It could cause them to become autistic.” She then goes on to talk about her own stellar background as a single mom who decided she didn’t want “that” kind of child so she decided not to vaccinate her son. On some level, she should be allowed to raise her children in whatever manner she sees fit. What bothers me is that her little love child is putting my children and your children at risk. Thanks to the Bimbo Philosophy, as its come to be called based on the IQs...
Public Service Killings and NHI Cases
2008-10-30 04:58:00 Public service killings - a recent case in Fresno. I think the killer is a hero. The gangbanger pushed his way into the guy's house, sat down, demanded a drink and a cigarette, and I guess refused to leave. A fight ensued and Brian Waldron, a fine, upstanding citizen, defended himself against the Bulldog gang member animal, hitting him with a stick and killing him.Then he buried the body, which not a very smart thing to do. Furthermore, you foul God's Earth by placing such dead nastiness in it. Chopping up the body is pretty horrid too.Cops call some cases like this (good guy kills bad guy) "public service killings". I agree. This guy just got caught is all. Looks like he's going down on homicide charges, but I vote to acquit.Cases where one gangbanger or criminal scumbag kills another are referred to by cops as "NHI" cases. NHI means "no humans involved".Haha.

The Best Public Service Announcement
2008-05-27 22:00:00 The Internet, my always-faithful friend, might just let me down for the first time ever.I've spent the entire morning searching and searching for a clip from The Best Public Service Announcment, and I can't find it. As someone who has subcontracted his memory out to Google, that's disturbing. I've come to rely on the Internet to be instantly available to tell me what that song in the commercial was (Bounce With Me by Kreesha Turner) or how to get raccoons out of an old shed I'm tearing down (scare them out, which, FYI, doesn't work) or, in this case, to help me see, again, the old Public Service Announcement that I remember so well from my youth.See, like everyone everywhere, I stopped at age 12 listening to people tell me what the right thing to do is. That's why all public service announcements are aimed at little kids, after all. After age 12, they're useless. Teenagers take PSAs as instructional manuals -- oh, man, I didn't know you could drink and drive. I'm trying th...

Public service broadcasting - don't text in your votes
2008-04-15 21:10:00 Funny really. The only time television has ever really cared about voting was when it offered an opportunity to drain money from audiences.When it comes to public policy, broadcasting follows the long British tradition of deferring decisions to appointed boards of scrupulously selected, upstanding gentlefolk. God forbid those board members be politicised, or lured into some broader political process.It is hardly the fault of Ofcom that when it comes to options for dishing out public money the preferred solutions of boss Ed Richards are expressed like this: "Ofcom's content board could do it, although I would not necessarily recommend that. The BBC Trust could become a broader funding agency, or you could set up something new called the Public Service Trust or Agency," he said.Political, democratic or voting based solutions are not on the table to decide on subsidy allocations aimed at producing television to encourage and support what exactly?Er, precisely the kind of civic activit...

Public service broadcasting 101 (Give us the cash or Gordon Ramsay replaces
2008-04-14 22:15:00 I haven’t put pen to paper on the Ofcom PSB review. The review is thorough but transparent, the best take on it is from Ofcomwatch - I’ve added a link to a pdf of Stigler’s seminal article. Nobel winner George Stigler famously observed [pdf] that firms often acquire policy or regulation so as to serve their interest, not the public interest.Ofcom’s Public Service Broadcasting (PSB) review looks like it could be headed directly down this path.The regulator paints a dire picture of the future of quality television broadcasting and strongly suggests a state subsidy should be offered. The likely beneficiary? Channel 4.Ofcom say Channel 4 ‘will need greater certainty in its funding model.’‘Greater certainty’ in this context = money. And the likely source? The BBC licence fee.

Bevara och renodla public service till vad det borde vara
2008-03-19 11:40:00 Jag tillhör dom som anser att Sveriges Radio och Sveriges Television har ett utrymme att fylla, men att det borde ske med en helt annan utgångspunkt än vad som är fallet idag. Den licens som Radiotjänst i Kiruna idag plockar in och administrerar borde omgående avslutas för att istället hanteras via skattsedeln. Sedan handlar det om att sr och svt ska sända program som utgår ifrån vad ingen av de kommersiella kanalerna sänder eller producerar. Det är inte tittarsiffror som ska styra vad svt erbjuder oss, och vad vi förväntar oss av alla de miljoner som de förvaltar. Deras utgångspunkt ska vara frågan som Jan Gradvall ställer i senaste numret av Café, nämligen vad vi skulle missa om svt lades ner helt och hållet? En fantastisk publikframgång som den från i lördags aktuella finalen i melodifestivalen, med över fyra miljoner tittare, är egentligen ingenting som vi ska förvänta oss från svt. Personligen kan jag se en rad olika program (ex. Kobra, Värld...

May he discover that those are not raisins, after all, and thereby discover his guinea pig has been into his cupboard. May he fall asleep for 8 hours, in the sun. At the Equator. May he find that he’s been sleep walking naked through Times square, two seconds before meeting the front end of a speeding bus. That is all.
