>> [_] Anon 1916404 oh lord
>> [_] Anon 1916410 Ok, so, why is this so poorly written? since when is legiumz vs zeitgeist a thing? why is it suddenly a thing? dont get me wrong thought I am the first one to want to see a cult like zeitgeist suffer but the problem is that you are, in fact, gay.
>> [_] Anon 1916415 That was horrible.
>> [_] Anon 1916418 This is why you don't rip off chanology videos. They never translate over well. This was terrible. Use a different voice edit and make the text flow without being too wordy. Also the music sucked.
>> [_] Anon 1916441 Shit, I don't even know what Zeitgeist is, and I thought Venus was just a cool project for making boss looking buildings.
>> [_] Anon 1916450 fucking idiot.
>> [_] Anon 1916484 >># if we can write a new script right now I'd make a better anonymous message to zeitgeist cult vid.
>> [_] Anon 1916507 well this killed my boner
>> [_] Anon 1916515 Well, this could go two ways. Either Anon's conflict with zeitgeist will plunge it into "unable to be taken seriously" territory, or will give it legitimacy in the eyes of the public.
>> [_] Anon 1916517 >Giving a fuck about zeitgeist >2013
>> [_] Anon 1916527 >Zeitgeist will enter mainstream media soon >Leader of the whole movement has been well known since the 70s >Any stupid teenager who thinks they know how to trump society and religion today quotes zeitgest Seems legit.
>> [_] Anon 1916530 tell me if this is better: hello members of Zeitgeist we are anon The recent persistence of the spreading of your propaganda both on the internet and on public notice boards has been unavoidably seen by anon. The actions of your internet cult is to sway the public away from real positive change in the world. Instead of encouaging more freedom, you encourage restriction wth the system you advocate a resource based economy which you define as the scientific method for social concern. Anon sees you as a corruption in the revolution, a trolling movement that leads people away from grass roots movements such as occupy. anyone want to continue?
>> [_] Anon 1916544 >># no, this is fucking dumb. It was horrible during Chanology, and its horrible now. Zietgist is just a dumb fucking thing no one cares about anyways, who cares.
>> [_] Anon 1916546 What's so bad about zeitgeist anyway always sounded cool to me
>> [_] Anon 1916552 Nobody in the real world even knows what Zeitgeist even is, so these videos are doing absolutely no harm to anyone. If you really want this Venus Project to get off the ground, you need to start talking to representatives and people in the media, 4chan doesn't care about it. In fact, most are finding these videos annoying as hell. And I'm not fucking around either, it's just a fact, nobody cares about this and everyone just wants you to leave. If we can't get Stormfront out of 4chan, what makes you think we can lead a national movement to change our economy and culture into something entirely different? Typing this with one hand, cause I didn't want to stop fapping, but felt compelled to comment anyway.
>> [_] Anon 1916563 >># you seem to be implying that the internet world isn't connected to the real world. The zeitgeist cult does have a negative effect on people, Scientology is only a more destructive cult because it's been around for longer.
>> [_] Anon 1916573 a worthy opponents indeed

Here you admit that I am right. No complex system can continue to function without regular check-ups and tuning. Also, 60 years is a far cry from a Century my friend.
>> [_] Anon 1623523 Seriously though, are you people smashing your iPods against rocks or pouring sugar in your gas tanks because whatever the fuck I buy, I make it last. I fucking squeeze as much fun/energy/use out of my shit until I can no longer use for any discernible purpose.

OF course exacting precision engineered stuff has very low tolerances and needs constant attention and care, but there is no need for that sort of thing. Look at lightbulbs as another example. Modern lightbulbs are DESIGNED to burn out. If you like in america get a european lightbulb, they will last decades in american sockets because they are designed for higher voltage.

>> [_] Anon 1623539 >># Are you trying to be a douchebag? Unbelievably, yes, people DO maintain and tune things such as cars in order to keep them running because many people weren't born with a silver spoon up their ass and can't afford to buy a new luxury sedan every time our old cars break down. Plus, it's not that hard to repair a car, but you probably can't be assed to do some manual labor or even bring it to a repair shop.

>> [_] Anon 1623548 >># I can't argue for light-bulbs, they're shit. But they aren't machines. As an engineer, saying that stress point can be completely avoided is shit. They happen.

>> [_] Anon 1623551 >># That's not what he was saying at all you fuckwit. Let me sum it up for you. Zeitfags are saying shit is just made to be broken and bought again. Sensible people are saying that shit lasts just fine as long as you know how to take care of it. Example used was cars, zeitfags seem to think that cars should run indefinitely with no maintenance whatsoever. Everybody who wasn't born in a god-damn ivory tower knows that you have to take care of machines or else they break down. That's just how it's been ever since machines became more complex than a lever and a couple pulleys.
>> [_] Anon 1623552 >># Missing the point, again.
>> [_] Anon 1623553 >># That argument is flawed, since it's less of a "want" and really, more of a "necessity". A "want" is something I don't inherently need but can still live without while a "need" or "necessity" is something that I must have in order to perform any function, such as "living" or in this case, driving. Yes, I could drive a car without absolutely zero safety measures. Would any reasonable person with an ounce of intelligence give in and strap themselves into a machine with a high possibility of death? Maybe if you're an astronaut or nihilist.

I have done more than change my oil. The first time I ever did any real work was back in 05. I had to replace the bearings on my 92 Capri. Which if you know anything about wheel bearings going out it is both hazardous and an ass ache to work on. But there are plenty of refurb, third party, and official manufacturers that sell parts long past a five year mark. Nevermind that there are places like Hedal's, O'Reilly's, and other that can get you parts for equipment going back to the 50s and 60s. The reason most manufacturers don't make new parts after the 10 year mark is due to the fact that people buy new cars because they are designed to be safer, or look cooler. I don't care.

>> [_] Anon 1623729 I for one would like somebody to take down this stupid ass zeitgeist thing. I'm all for free speech and the spreading of ideas, but i don't like the spreading of bat-shit crazy ideas that confuse my stoner friends.
>> [_] Anon 1623730 >># But this notion that you can't find the parts for something that is six years old is silly. Walk into an autostore, the worst that can happen is you have to wait 2-3 days while they get the part sent from another town because they haven't had the need to carry a part for your vehicle. And if you're suggesting that you can't find a part for an air conditioner, washer, dryer, etc. after five years, then how do A/C repairmen stay in business? How does the repair industry function at all if they can't fix what you have due to lack of parts? You're shouting things, and not making a concise point (so you can move the goalposts) without making sense. I think you should crack open a copy of JCWhitney sometime: http://www.jcwhitney.com/ Or check some HVAC catalogs. No company in these categories could keep above water if their equipment wasn't repairable in such a short period of time. Note: This also applies to washers, dryers, water heaters, fridges, and ovens.

>> [_] Anon 1623734 >># Alright, so the 5 year was a more general estimate meant not just for cars but most devices
>> [_] Anon 1623737 >># That's because programming becomes more and more complex as time goes on. A program designed to work with Windows 95 isn't going to work in 7 because 7 has a lot more shit to work with. It's like taking a neanderthal and expecting him to know how hunting and fishing licenses work. Yeah, he's still hunting and fishing, but nowadays we have a system that regulates that activity that didn't exist back then. Besides, that's not even true for all programs. Starcraft (the first one) still fucking works on XP and Vista.

>> [_] Anon 1623745 >># Argument is not invalid because Microsoft, the makers of XP, are also the makers of Internet Explorer. Despite that their browser is crappy, it should make it ever so obvious that a company able to give support, does not, even though other advanced browsers can.
>> [_] Anon 1623747 >># Well what other devices? I can still get repair parts for computers going back to the 90s. If people didn't want all their web applications to have glitter and glamour you'd see the hardware industry side slow way the fuck down. And it has in some areas. Example: Screen resolutions. We've had 1920x1080 available for about a decade or so now. There's no reason why higher resolutions are not manufactured except for the fact that people aren't demanding larger resolutions. I suspect this is mostly due to movies, but that's just conjecture. Here's a place I love to start looking for computer parts: http://www.pricewatch.com
>> [_] Anon 1623748 >># i guess i am, thanks for implying it.
>> [_] Anon 1623750 >># Yeah, that kinda is my point. It's like trying to use a philip's head screwdriver to screw in a flathead screw. Use the right tools for the right job. You don't use a Powerpoint client designed for Windows '98 on a machine that runs 7, it's like the screws, it's just not going to happen.
>> [_] Anon 1623751 >># faggot.
>> [_] Anon 1623752 >># If you're upset that your portable whatever device can't last past the five year mark (an actual true statement), that is merely due to the limitations of chemistry and lithium. Not a planned design fault. Just chemistry. Of course, you can always buy a kit and a new battery (even better batteries), and not have to upgrade.
>> [_] Anon 1623753 >># If it's the software side, well that comes down to two things. 1) Consumers demanding more from their software. 2) A need for money by the corporation. If you use linux like I do, you'd see that this whole "planned obsolescence" is not necessary. It all depends on what you demand your software to do. If you want the shiniest shit, you go with a distro like ubuntu and keep polishing that turd. If you want something rock stable and don't give a fuck, you get a more stable distro like slack. So that part of the equation is down to the demands of the customers. I don't know if MS or Apple plan obsolescence, but even if they did, it'd only be a reaction to what the customers demand. Which is mostly shinier shit.

>> [_] Anon 1623757 >># Well, it's kind of disconcerting to discover that different rechargeable batteries have different charging habits. You would expect the manufacturer of the device (even if not the battery) would add a disclaimer on how to better extend the battery life.

If it came with your computer, the manufacturer subsidized the cost of the software and paid MS (at a substantially less cost) for your OEM setup.

>> [_] Mr. Kidnapper 1623769 My two batteries for my Chinese bootleg of a Japanese phone are expected to last two or three years each. The manual says you're only supposed to charge them to 50% the first three or so times to maximize battery life. Ha. Even the Chinese tell you. Duet D698 btw.

>> [_] Anon 1623771 >># >uses firefox >keeps it in the google result I lol'd. But to answer your question, first link in the search query says: WHY DOESNT IE9 WORK ON XP ? Because Internet Explorer 9 uses Direct2D for hardware acceleration which is unavailable in Windows XP. If you want to use a modern browser, use a modern operating system. ---- Sorry, It won't happen. Do you have a few million to finance the R&D? It is not XP per se... but the next generation of CPU's and internet connections that are needed (hardware and driver improvements) that the next generation of IE can take advantage of. I have seen some pretty good deals on Win7 bundles with new PC's/laptops... It may be time to upgrade your machine to the next generation. XP is nealy 10 years old.
