Did you ever wonder where the Romans got bread from? It wasn't from Waitrose!
Dunno if this counts as schadenfreude, -- I went to see Dave Davies last night at the Islington Assembly Hall. Group of guys behind us were pissing and moaning the entire time how bad it was, how Dave can't sing or play anymore (he had a massive stroke back about 14 or so years ago, and had to learn completely how to walk, talk, and play guitar/sing), and walked out during one of the quieter songs, bitching that it was a load of wank and a waste of £30.

Then Dave brought his brother Ray onstage to sing 'You Really Got Me' at the end of the show -- first time they've performed on stage together in 19 years. :neckbeard:

Odd to think that site is only ten years old. Trying to find a place online to host even short videos before that was hellishly difficult
Now I feel old.

The art of sharing schauden-clips did exist well before YouTube, either via LANs, FTP sites or a few dedicated sites that gamely hosted videos before blowing their bandwidth limits - or for a fee.
Email was another, but that soon drew the ire of system admins who put hard blocks on any attachments that were 3mb or more as that John West tuna ad ate email storages.

Given most school systems were Windows it was usually MPEG or WMV codecs. Quicktime clips usually existed only for Mac users.
At school I had a folder circulating on the server called "Sick Sad MPEGs" which was a depository for stuff like that TV presenter getting her hair aflame from the bike stunt.

Back then it was mostly stuff that had been ripped from home video shows or the news. And to do that you needed a capture card and then something to edit and compress it with. Stuff like Windows Movie Maker or iMovie paved the way for people to start recording stuff with webcams or if you had the cash a MiniDV camcorder.

Jump ahead to 2004 and Quicktime dominated video streaming. But if you wanted to see Janet Jackson's superbowl stunt, it was still though a filesharing program. FTP or sites like Albino Blacksheep or Newgrounds.

Then Macromedia introduced the .flv format which was a major game changer as it gave you a pre-build media player and you just had to convert your clip. I remember calling up the support line at Macromedia to figure out how to skin their new players. But the support structure was there so no surprise flash streaming became instantly adopted.

Many herbivores will eat meat if given the option. The only reason they don't on their own is they didn't evolve to have the capability of successfully taking prey. Not that it would occur to them to try to take prey in the first place, but if you put meat into front of them and they like the smell, herbivores will go to town on it.

Just got done reading the Silent Hill circumcision meltdown. Holy poo poo. Is there a name for when your brain is broken specifically by the concept of circumcision? I used to know a guy who took it upon himself to educate me on the EVILS OF CIRCUMCISION about a year into our friendship. In the space of two weeks we went from chatting about beer or video games or whatever to where every conversation HAD to be about baby dicks and the alleged mutilation thereof.

It escalated to where my lack of strong opinions on baby penises would reduce him to screams and tears every time I spoke to him, so I just started avoiding him and hoping he'd forget about me before the murders started.

The circumcision stuff was a symptom. According to some of the other users that knew him well, he's been having a really rough year, and circumcisions were just one glaring aspect of his growing obsession with conspiracies and related things.

Why have such strong opinions about countries you've never been to, or people you have never met? It's all ideology. Even if they don't care, everyone has an opinion on circumcision, as do I (the right one btw), but it's way down the list of things that I have the time & energy to get real weird about.
