Banksy strikes again:

What's amusing is the fact that both HMV and Virgin seem to think it's okay what happened, presumably because it's Paris Hilton.

Banksy sounds like a twat.
grim…: yeah. normally he has a dry wit, and a nice graphical presentation. this is just sneer-whine faux-comment. i lost a lot of respect for him when i saw this.

I like alot of Banksy's stuff but this stinks more of student prank than statement. It's more the reaction of HMV and Virgin that struck me as odd.
never mind. they'll be wiped off the face of the earth in a week or so. that's a comfort.

Oooh that was good.
THE WORLD'S FIRST LIFE FORM
Can a long-extinct species be resurrected? Ugobe designers and engineers studied the long extinct Camarasaurus, a dinosaur from the Jurassic period. Pleo, a Ugobe Life Form is the authentic recreation born from that study. UGOBE's designers and engineers recreated Pleo's physiology from the fossils of the original. His height and weight are consistent with that of a one-week old infant camarasuarus.
Pleo is a 'designer species'. He incorporates all the basic traits of autonomous life. He is specifically engineered and enhanced to mimic life and relate to his owner on a personal level.
Pleo is equipped with senses for sight, sound, and touch. He learns as he explores his environment. He will exhibit genuine reactions to sensory stimuli. Every Pleo begins life with certain tendencies but, interaction with his environment has subtle effects on his behavior. Every Pleo eventually exhibits a unique personality.
Pleo is capable of expression. He can feel joy and sorrow, anger and annoyance. When Pleo is tired, he will become drowsy and go to sleepóeven dream. Two or more Pleos will recognize one another. Be careful though. They can transmit colds to each other. Achoo! Pleo even sneezes!
I was willing to let the stickmen animation go, but this is REALLY old news salty...
ah, but there's been an update in its behaviour. AND it's not being released until december. so it's actually PRE-NEW news. so there. nyer.

don't be so crass, grim…. he was making an unrelated statement regarding his observation that the gradual diminishment of summer has led to the ambient temperature dropping, such that he is once more able to comfortably wear socks.

d00d, Quit being a FUCKING ASS
Look at you. Look at yourself. Look at what you've BECOME. Your job is writing code to BREAK PEOPLE'S COMPUTERS if they dare to put a CELINE DION CD into their disk drive. Is this what you always wanted? Is this what you went to school for? Is this what we've all -- all of us, every other hacker and programmer and geek and computer person -- is this what we've all helped you to do?

"creek, and it carries a healthy dose of that slow burn that leaves you feeling the glow of a good bourbon several minutes after you stopped swallowing. At the same time, it's not gonna rip you up.
Knob Creek does not leave your throat feeling like you just tried to ingest a pound of sand and pepper.
For the straight up drinker, Knob Creek doesn't have to be forced into your stomach. It finds its way there peacefully, and bearing gifts."

Still. The other ones look cool.
What they need is to mass produce one of those 9V batteries with a female USB port inbuilt on hackaday. That'd be cool.
