10/29/2003 01:15 AMI tried and tried, but I just couldn't resist linking to this parody:
"Confirming their intent to battle Google's new Blogger
service, MT then announced on its TypePad site that the it would be
rendering all of its users' posts in image format- meaning that any
blog hosted by the TypePad service would be immune to Google's awesome
searching reach, because the blog entries would actually be images,
rather than text ... Taking the incredible step to block your users'
access to and from Google, the de-facto clearinghouse and meetinghouse
of the Web, is a bold and almost paranoid move for MovableType to make
in a war that hasn't even begun (neither the new Google-powered
Blogger, nor MT's new TypePad sevice, have yet to launch). It's as if
MT has forgotten how precarious their strong hold is over such a
fickle group of fans."
For reference, the author was referring to this
dollarshort.org post, which, I assume could have only benefitted
from a "THIS IS A JOKE" disclaimer.
The confusion over my feeble attempts at humor has spurred us to
create the <$MTJoke$> tag, which from this moment on, is a required
Movable Type tag to be used when indicating sarcasm, gentle ribbing,
playful jests and half-truths.
THIS IS A JOKE!
I guess my 26 paragraph screed on Google's gourmet chef wouldn't go
over well either.

Missile Defense Is A Cult
Missile Defense Is A Cult
12/19/2004 03:10 PMUp here in Canada we’re coming under political pressure from
President Bush to sign up for the U.S. Missile Defense program,
we’ve got all this territory up North where they’d like to situate
the launchers. Rather than just saying “Get lost!”,
our Mr. Martin is (wisely I
think) playing it cool and fuzzifying. It’s good not to irritate the
U.S. when you don’t have to, but there’s absolutely no need for
Canada to assist the dwindling but influential band of cultists who
believe that Missile Defense is anything but a defense-contractor
boondoggle. It was bogus back when Reagan launched it and it’s still
bogus. But don’t take my word for it, check out what the American
Institute of Physics
has to
say. Mind you, it’s less dangerous now than it was in Reagan’s
day, when there was a nonzero probability that “Star Wars” might
have provoked some paranoid Russians who were sufficiently stupid to
believe that it might work to launch a first strike while they still
had a chance. (
Lauren has
told me of how she, like every other underfunded Physics Ph.D. in the
Eighties, noticed how dressing research up as missile-defense-related
was a good way to tap into the gushing SDI money pipeline). Now,
it’s just an
extremely
profitable waste of money. We all know that religious cults are
distinguished by believing in things that are obviously not true,
usually combined with substantial cash flows in the direction of those
running the cult. Missile defense is an obvious example.

Why I'm an Acolyte of the Cult of Dean
10/29/2003 12:10 AMNormally I'll have nothing to do with any sort of organized religion,
as almost every one has an aggressive branch of proselytism. It's
interesting, though; I've never been averse to being spiritual, to
having faith in things, etc. Howard Dean's found a way to proselytise
without being rude: provide an open forum for people to congregate,
and never waver from what's in his heart. I think this method works
for anybody, but I've never seen anyone with the power to go for
President realize this; it sounds like JFK might have been the last.
Interestingly, those are some of the core principles that we're
discovering at the roots of this whole "blogging" thing; you cannot
waver from the guidance of your heart, you must be honest and direct.
The technological implementation of blogging is where we find the
community-building, though;...

06/16/2004 10:38 PMFun Neal Pollack article in
The Stranger about President
Bush's kooky religious beliefs.
This is also the kind of country where the president meets
with the members of a radical, far-right millennialist Christian sect
three weeks before he counteracts all known international law and
opinion regarding the Israeli-Palestinian situation. That sect, known
as the Apostolic Congress, opposes any deal with the Palestinians
because it believes that Christ won't return to Earth until all of
Israel belongs to the Jews and Solomon's temple is
rebuilt.

Synopsis
The subjects of this documentary are either dangerous terrorists,
computer security activists, or simply out-of-control adolescents.
Your opinion may vary, depending on your stock holdings, after you
watch for yourself as the members of The Cult of the Dead Cow
demonstrate the ease with which their software program, "Back Orifice
2000" can seize control of a Windows computer connected to the
internet.

My Tokyo Death Cult: CC-licensed science
fiction
07/06/2004 03:41 AMMy Tokyo Death Cult is a science fiction novel released under a CC
license by Marc Horne -- haven't read it, but it's got a hell of an
opener:
Japanese policemen's guns are small and sort of puny. Except when
they are shooting at you. Right now, they are shooting at me and my
companion and we are running scared. The Policemen's shots are a
little tentative, like someone picking chewing gum out of their hair.
In fairness to the police, I should mention that we are in Shinjuku
station, the world's busiest. Currently it is occupied by... oh, I
don't know... 2.5 Lichtensteins. I am on average 4 inches taller than
those around me, and a crucial 4 inches to boot, so as I barge
through the crowd, hurting everyone, I must remember to crouch. To
help me remember this, I visualize two things: the cloth that hangs
in front of every drinking establishment in this country and those
photos of JFK's autopsy that my father and I discussed over breakfast
in 1977.

Boing Boing pal
Scott Beale informs us that our blog just won
Group Weblog of the Year at the
Bloggies. OMG! What a huge honor! Thank you, Bloggies. We honestly
didn't expect this, and we are deeply moved and grateful. There were
many other deserving blogs up for awards, backed by talented folks who
work very hard, and we raise our collective pirate-eye-patches in
their honor:
check 'em all
out. On behalf of my blog-mates
Cory Doctorow,
Mark Frauenfelder, and
David Pescovitz; our wise "band manager"
John Battelle; our sysadmin
par excellence Ken Snider; and the rest of the team and extended
family that makes Boing Boing possible -- a humble thank you. But most
of all, we are grateful to you, our readers, for wasting otherwise
productive time on our collective scrapbook of "wonderful things," and
for pointing us to even more of those wonderful and undiscovered
things each day. We're really sorry that we couldn't make it to
SXSW in person to accept the award,
but we hope you'll join us in celebrating in person tomorrow at
ETCON (
all five of us will be in the same place for the first time).
Boing Boing sprouted online a little over
five years ago, from paper zine roots planted by Mark Frauenfelder
and
Carla
Sinclair. It is a privilege to blog for you. With you, we look
forward to another adventurous year of link-discuss to come.
Link
Update: Holy crap! Reader Nathaneal Heasley
sez, "Not only did BB win best group ‘blog, it won “blog of the
year/best weblog overall” – congratulations!" For those keeping
track, this is the second year in a row Boing Boing has received these
two awards: Link to 2004, Link to 2005. Man. We're
speechless, and overwhelmed by your generosity.
