    -His lethargic display of apathy and lack of industry is shameful!
    -It is a legitimate response to the harsh and inconsequential nature of being. I celebrate his tenacity!







    After that act of defiance Grigor was never heard from again. And none in the company ever spoke of the incident. He was my best friend.

    I've been logging into Playstation@Home almost nightly for months now. They almost always have some new contest or something free to give away. Yet I wasn't able to find time to turn the PS3 on yesterday, and whatever karma points I used up to be that lucky I'm grateful for.

    Thanks for these huge companies not knowing how to program internal clocks around leap years, the older PS3s are failing in every which way except bricking. Can't connect to the Playstation Network, can't connect to multiplayer games, can't play single player games. I won't be turning mine back on untill Sony gives the all clear.

    So I give you this:

    I've come to the conclusion that the amount of bullshit Sony attempts to pull with brand lock-in and proprietary formats is the inverse of the size of the intended market. For instance:

    Size of Market - PS3 > Sony PSP 2000/3000 > Sony PSP Go
    Amount of brand lock-in/proprietary formats - Sony PSP Go > Sony PSP 2000/3000 > PS3

    What is high 50's? You have a fever or is it the weather?

    I like the bike pic. It has a post apocalyptic radioactive ash vibe to it.

    They can't seriously have even considered using those adverts.

    Well, knowing how expensive it is to make a design and get artwork ... they didn't make those just for the heck of it.

    Never attribute to stupidity that which can be attributed to marketing. Or something like that.

    I'm not one for complaining, but I actually think I would if I saw those out in public.

    The Dead Tired one is vaguely funny. The other two certainly aren't.

    Indeed. I can't imagine the meeting where the end conclusion was "yeah, lets go with these".

    edit: after a bit of googling:

    http://www.hookedonads.com/shocking-...reet-calle-13/

    When it comes to making an effective ad campaign that will be remembered shocking ads or shockvertising is a way to go. Advertising Agency Shackleton from Madrid, Spain, have selected this way and made really creepy ads for the 13th Street (Calle 13) horror channel. It’s design and photography were highly appreciated by advertising specialists. Black humor and offensive images must be a killer mix when advertisers want to reach their audience, especially when used in the right content – such as horror channel advertising.
    They're advertisements for a horror channel. Makes a little more sense now.

    More from the same campaign

    http://www.hookedonads.com/just-be-p...l-ad-campaign/

    13th Street is a television channel (runs in Germany and France) specializing in action and suspense shows and movies. We’ve already posted some of its creative advertising methods, and you can see them here: Shocking Ads for TV Channel 13th Street (Calle 13). While the previous ads were very straightforward, creepy and shocking, this time they chose a more subtle, and even funny way to advertise the channel.

    Considering the efforts certain users here take to turn every conversation into a black and white argument, I had to share this.

    Spoiler:







    In the future, the Berlin wall will be a mile high, and made of steel. You too will be made to crawl, to lick children's blood from jackboots. There will be no creativity, only productivity. Instead of love there will be fear and distrust, instead of surrender there will be submission. Contact will be replaced with isolation, and joy with shame. Hope will cease to exist as a concept. The Earth will be covered with steel and concrete. There will be an electronic policeman in every head. Your children will be born in chains, live only to serve, and die in anguish and ignorance.
    The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.
