THANK YOU, FRIENDS! :D <3

It’s very nice of you ask (and have hopes!), but probably not. Production has moved to the Cheez team in Seattle; I’m still located in NYC. Someday me and the other scientists emeritus might show up again, but don’t anyone go holding their breath. Until then, you’ll have to make due with hearing my thoughts about the Internet in not-video form. :-)

Hey Team, glad to be back! Hopefully this is the first of many, and more importantly hopefully this and the stuff to come will inspire some real conversation. <3

Or confirm this is true / find the thread mentioned? http://www.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/niwm0/so_brave/c39io7n I’m comin’ up w/ zilch, but am def. willing to credit /r/circlejerk w/ popularizing.

If you’re not part of the solution, though, aren’t you part of the problem? Insofar as Sony has a customer base and that customer base is made up of avid internet users (I mean, I don’t have the numbers in front of me… but I’m willing to bet it is) shouldn’t Sony be actively pulling for a version of SOPA which does not Break the Internet? Which lets them protect themselves, but doesn’t harm or alienate their consumer base in the process… It’s moot now since they’ve dropped support, but it’s a shame it...

True, true. But it’s also not like Anonymous was threatening physical harassment of any kind, which I agree goes to far. The way I see it, if SOPA effectively allows Sony (amongst others) to have access to Kill Switch, why not remind them what it’s like to have their own Kill Switch thrown? Of course an eye for an eye, hole world blind, etc etc but I find the threat / acquiescence to be particularly poetic, appropriate.

It’s hard to say they are for sure 1:1 related, and I don’t want to say I approve of this kind fo tactic unilaterally… but to be perfectly honest for as long as the Anons and I are in agreement politically, I’m perfectly fine with this.

MS GURIN I DO WELL HOW U DO LONG TIME NO SEE

:D

AAAWWW! Thats so nice! Thanks! :D (mums the word!) I don’t make it up to Sea-town nearly as much as I’d like, but next time I’m in town…

Hey Jordan. My name is Mike. Nice to meet you!

tbph, I have 0 opinion. I don’t really know most folks here at this point. Though I will say this: there do seem to be alot of new folks. Everyone seems very nice. Which I like.

@Vlad – I was. But now I’m not. Thanks! @Dinner – Cool. Good lookin’ out. This is a family site after all.

Oh you know…

Hey Fry. How’s it going?

Awww… thats very nice of you to say madcat. I will respond with an image of Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin sharing a bed. I hope some day to be more “back” w. the KYM crew but who knows when and how and etc.
