Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behavior and information processing.

I like this very much. Chess, but pieces are not necessarily what they were before. If it's on a white space, it's the same piece you think it is. If it's on a black space, it's 50-50.

 The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them. |

While the funny ranking isn't from 10-1, the overall countdown is amusing, if you read the stories before watching the vids.

Decided to look up Orgazmo.
 A thumbnail is all I got without the paid membership. Otherwise, it tells me the street he lives on as well as info about his house. Residence Description: Length of Residence: unknown Lot Size: 8,715 sq ft Home Size: 1,196 sq ft Heating: unknown Rooms: 7 Cooling: unknown Bedrooms: 3 Fireplace: unknown Bathrooms: 2 Swimming Pool: unknown Floors: 1 Architecture: unknown Garage: Attached Garage Construction: unknown Est. Home Value: unknown Material: unknown Edit: I looked into it a bit further and the picture may not be Orgazmo. It seems like they include thumbnails that might be who you are looking for. |

Definitely not me in the picture.
And the other shit (plus even property value) is available through public info, through the county's website in most instances. It is crazy how much info is available, though. Ever run a credit report where you have to answer 3 random questions about yourself to verify your identity? It's sort of mind blowing. The company that provides that service to the credit report places actually has a whole business around knowing a shitload of stuff about a shitload of people. They just pay for subscriptions to a lot of public info databases to have it available on the fly. When I worked a 9-5, I worked for a company that created/sold online learning management software (like Blackboard for anyone that went to Ball State...in fact, toward the end of my tenure there, they were bought out by Blackboard). The most badass thing I did there was build a thing that interfaced with the company that does the credit report shit. It would force the student to answer 3 personal questions about themselves before they took a quiz to ensure it was really them doing it. Stuff like, "What was the first road you lived on" and "Which of these banks do you currently have a loan with." The moral of the story is that there's a lot of info out there...especially if people are willing to pay for it. |

That search was a total failure. I searched my own phone number, email address, and name and nothing correct came up. I looked up my parents stuff and only the property (which is public record, as Gaz stated) was correct. Wrong family numbers, living persons in home, etc...

Yeah, I was thinking on it earlier and I think that people submit certain "views" and then it randomizes those that are submitted. Not exactly the same thing as completely random, but probably a lot more visually exciting.

I think what it does is randomly selects a country and from that country randomly selects a view. In this manner Antarctica is given vastly disproportionate representation
