For some reason now, whenever I click on this thread it slows Firefox to a crawl and does the same in IE until the page is completely loaded. Happens when I click on the re-score movies thread as well. It just started doing it in the last 2 weeks or so. I know it has something to do with having embedded videos enabled, but that has never slowed anything down for me before. Any ideas?

Im not sure if its firefox updates or its the different method SA is using to embed youtube videos.

I'm constantly shocked to see this reaction to videos like this - surely this is the very reason that you carry a gun, for situations like this?

What would have happened if the robbers decided to shoot back? Or someone else with a gun comes in to be the hero and shoots the old guy? Or anyone with a gun missed and hit someone else? I can't even tell if he hit what he was aiming at. Just handing over your valuables seems safer than escalating the situation and risking the lives of others.

I knew a guy who got killed while complying and handing over his valuables just because the robber THOUGHT he was making a bad move while instead he was just trying to be as helpful as possible so that the situation would be over soon. I'm not pro-guns but you cannot trust your muggers to be reasonable.

Goddamn. Today's my birthday too. I know people have complained about Mike Masse that he's a bit of a panhandler, but since that suggests the dude doesn't have much of a steady cashflow, that makes me feel he's going to need money even more to care for his baby son. I hope the internet comes through for him in some big sweeping fashion.

Thats uhhhhh... crazy but vaguely familiar.

Last year I had the dubious honor of having Crispin Glover's movie It Is Fine. Everything Is Fine! thrust upon me as he was in Iceland doing a screening personally. Work paid for us all to go and it was traumatic to say the least, look it up the movie is utterly hosed. Anyway, after that experience there was an email that went round linking to some other stuff he'd done, including his music video for "Clowny Clown Clown"

Not a comment on any specific video, but it's a youtube related question. I want to know if anyone else has experienced a sudden and extreme drop in youtube's audio quality since the last Flash update? I use Logitech G35 headphones and now any youtube video that has any kind of bass to it sounds completely horrible.

The latest version of Flash gave me such problems that I downgraded from version 11 to 10. That has fixed everything for me.

Look at this guy, tryin' to be all snarky and poo poo about videos he's too fuckin' lazy to even watch.

First video is a boat chase, as it says in the (admittedly) sparse video description Grooveh posted, set to audio of what seems to be an antiquated (or even current; I have no idea), actual boat racing commentary. Boris' description brings to mind like, static, or dubstep or whatever people are harping on these days, but it's hardly "terrible noise".

Second video is a bunch of dudes building a big castle-like base with little traps and bottlenecks and stuff everywhere, in preparation for a siege or something? The terrible background noise this time is an old "prison chain-gang" morale song.

Content:

Here's Hopsin's latest, an angry rap penned against hip-hop's state in pop-culture. It's a tired-rear end argument, of course, but it's technically well-produced and the video is claustrophobic and unnerving.

I know it helps that she's absolutely gorgeous and in pretty much perfect physical condition, but there's something infectious about her cheerfulness. Seeing all those pre-event bounces and that drat smile just completely drains the usual tension from the build-up at the blocks. Normally I get jitters just watching people getting ready (maybe it was because of track meets when I was a kid), but there was none of that. She was just warming up with such exuberance that it was a blast to watch. I found myself laughing instead of leering, but hot drat is her form going over the hurdles awesome.

I'll forever be in awe of hurdlers. I could just never get it down. Throw ridiculous cross country runs though the Washington forest in 20 degree weather or sprints at me and I'm fine, but for whatever reason my brain would always seize up when it came to having to jump over stuff for some reason.

You should be incredibly proud; she killed it, was a great sport, and looked incredible all at the same time. I haven't been so smitten with someone at a sports event since that girl at the Korean World Cup.

I'd say they reached a wider audience. I've never played minecraft, but for enjoyed both videos, and if I had more time to spend on video games I would probably join them to try it out.

Some of you might be familiar with my blog, which mainly focuses on the UK phone hacking scandal and Syria, and recently because of my work on Syria I've been involved with a awareness campaign with CJ Chivers and various arms and EOD experts about the safe handling of unexploded ordnance (UXO) in conflict zones, something which is seen time and time again on Youtube videos from Syria. As a small first step on this project I've put together a top ten of example of really bad ways to deal with UXO I've gathered from Syria, and here's a few examples.

Here an activist pulls at an unexploded rocket like it's a carrot
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsIX3-6OZQs

This is an example of how not to carefully place UXO back where you found it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=856FCviWA5Q

Got a massive 240mm unexploded mortar? Why not tap it with a rock
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25DvSU4BMeY

And this final example missed my top ten, note the sound of children playing nearby as they pick up the UXO
