Overnight Open Thread (10-13-2013)Sorry tonight's ONT is gonna be on the minimalist side. I had a gum graft on Friday and while the procedure was painless, the after-effects really knocked me for a loop. The last two days have mostly involved sleeping, vicodin, ramen, and the occasional operation of heavy machinery. So you'll have to mostly entertain yourselves. (Thanks to Andy) ![]() Abandoned by the city Oakland residents are organizing their own private police forces. Oakland has an understaffed police department and is the city with the highest robbery rate* in America. In the last few weeks three separate campaigns have been started on Crowdtilt in order to fund four months of private security patrols in three different section of Rockridge. Near $35,000 have been raised so far, and two of the three projects have raised enough funds to ensure they will move forward.
Paul Allen, a college dropout from Seattle, wandered into the cluttered kiosk one snowy day in December 1974 and saw that the new issue of Popular Electronics featured a home computer for hobbyists, called the Altair, that was just coming on the market. He was both exhilarated and dismayed. Although thrilled that the era of the "personal" computer seemed to have arrived, he was afraid that he was going to miss the party. Slapping down 75 cents, he grabbed the issue and trotted through the slush to the Currier House room of Bill Gates, a Harvard sophomore and fellow computer fanatic from Lakeside High School in Seattle, who had convinced Allen to drop out of college and move to Cambridge. "Hey, this thing is happening without us," Allen declared. Gates began to rock back and forth, as he often did during moments of intensity. When he finished the article, he realized that Allen was right. For the next eight weeks, the two of them embarked on a frenzy of code writing that would change the nature of the computer business. Azerbaijan Has The Most Efficient Elections in the World They already have the results tabulated even before the voting begins. "Florida's hanging chads ain't going nothing on Azerbaijan. Fully a day before the polls were to open, election results were accidentally released via an official smartphone app, confirming what everybody already knew - the election was rigged from the beginning. The official story is that the app's developer had mistakenly sent out the 2008 election results as part of a test. But that's a bit flimsy, given that the released totals show the candidates from this week, not from 2008." The First Actual Space Laser Gun Well about as much as she was Catholic and then Jewish. "I am building schools for girls in Islamic countries and studying the Qur'an. I think it is important to study all the holy books. As my friend Yaman always tells me, a good Muslim is a good Jew, and a good Jew is a good Christian, and so forth. I couldn't agree more. To some people this is a very daring thought." Just wait until she starts stripping out of a burka on stage and making out with Mohammed. 10 Musicians Who Killed Someone Weekly AoSHQ Commenter Standings Top 10 commenters: Top 10 sockpuppeteers: The group.
