QUESTION FOR YOU PEOPLE: Is there a way to watch the Obama press conference thingy tonight, LIVE, on a computer, but without upgrading Flash, which will fuck up our fragile publishing system? (Meaning, besides CNN.) NEVER MIND JUST FOUND THIS.

Didn’t you see the banner at the top of YouTube all day? NOT WASTING ENOUGH TIME, Ken.

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/cbs-news says they will air it.
Then you can watch puppy-cam!

Shooting hoops with hussies, or whatever is showing now is pretty good. Also.

Ken, I watched the whole Awl video in awe of the technolgical capabilities you have at your hands – side by side videos, star wars hats, cat stool softener, and catcus. You can’t figure this little problem out – you said you had access to all kinds of channels in the discussion (except Fox which was strangely missing) – now I understand you need to watch on your computer? Did you not pay your satellite bill. Please if you are on your last tank of propane, let us know what banners to click on…

Oh. Huskies. Never mind.

Fragile publishing system? You work at the NYT?

1. Ghetto feed: Have Jim and Sarah point their laptop webcam at the hotel room teevee, and GoogleCam their feed. Proably won’t work if they’ve purchased the hoel’s 24-hour porn package already.

2. Get a Slingbox for next time.

[re=303612]Country Club Jihadi[/re]: Now that’s funny. Unemployed set designer in Santa Monica?

The wing-o-sphere is gonna go ape when they realize the tubes are in the tank for Barry.

viviangrrrl April 29, 2009 at 5:25 pm

[re=303612]Country Club Jihadi[/re]: that’s pretty impressive. I wonder what goes through this guy/gal’s mind…”i’ve got it! barbie in a bathtub, bathing in squirrel(?) food. If that doesn’t ease those first date jitters, nothing will!”

[re=303586]Bruno[/re]: Thank you for your concern — ha, and for watching that terrible nine-hour Choire video which Choire REFUSED TO EDIT DOWN TO, SAY, TWO MINUTES. My teevee is fine, but Intern Juli is liveblogging with me tonight and she, as a poor university student, has no teevee and is forced to send emails via her Sega Dreamcast.

You people? What do you mean, you people?

What the hell? Don’t you work for like, an intarwebs site? Isn’t your whole job watching stupid shit online and making marginally funny comments? Shouldn’t you know how to do your job? This post is like the cashier at the grocery store asking her customers if they know how to work her register.

I broke all the web publishing things on my work computer today by upgrading to Flash. It was terrible. But then I remembered the Remote Desktop Connection/Virtual Machine and all was well.

What do you mean “You people?”
