carygolomb (10 hours ago)Oh man, it keeps getting worse for Sony. Hackers can unban themselves and (here's the kicker) can ban other PS3's. Just need the console ID.
carygolomb (10 hours ago)Man, I really like me some 8-bit chiptunes. It's perfect for every situation. Almost.

Tag Archives: History
At some point in our history it was decided that numbers weren’t good enough to keep track of time. All of those pesky years were just too simple and logical and sequential. No, what we needed were complicated, arbitrary names. So we started slapping names on slices of history. Generations, Eras, Ages, all of them were given labels that were supposed to clarify things somehow. Now I’m all for terminology, but at some point we should really agree on how these things work.
We’ve all done things we aren’t proud of. Maybe when you were fourteen you cheated on your math final. Maybe back in college you walked in on your roommate making out with your sister. Whatever it is, you’ve sectioned off that portion of history in your brain. As far as you or anyone else is involved, it didn’t happen, and we can all move on with our lives. Well, it turns out that individuals aren’t the only ones that do that. Corporations, religions, even whole nations do it!
