Saw this funny animal clip on The Soup.

It's probably like 20 years old and you're all going to stare at me for being so dense. Whatever. You can all go screw yourselves. It's still funny.

I found some great stuff in the past few months. Some is famous, some you may have seen, but I think its all quality

• Jeremy Paxman and Dizzee Rascal on Obama
• Surfer on the news
• Danielle Ate The Sandwich - Dream A Little Dream Of Me
• Insane Motorcycling in India
• Dan Bull - Generation Gaming
• The Peal P50 on Top Gear

Some real-life Linux gadgetry in the data center:

Don't Shout at your Disks!!!

Awesome. Never tried figuring out the vibrational impact like that with the storage systems I used to support, but I imagine they would have similar issues.

And from the web site, it looks like they were using OpenSolaris and DTrace to get the info out of the hardware, on a platform they are calling FISHworks. I've been pretty impressed by dtrace so far, glad to see it getting used more and more.

The Cock Shot super well-done "As Seen on TV" commercial parody.

Missed it, It's gone from the U.

Oh noes!!11!!one!eleven

I think this is the original.

Wolf and Pig This is neat. Be sure to watch it to the end.

One for Godfrey and Doug ;-)

Frenchman makes valves by hand

Warning, the soundtrack is a little tedious. The music he uses in the background isn't very long and doesn't loop properly. But the sheer nerdiness of the visuals more than makes up for it.

I think if valves had been mass produced this way it would have taken the average family 20 years to save up for a TV and then wait another 10 for it to be made!

I started out by thinking "I could do that". It wasn't too long before I realised I was way out of my depth! If I had to choose a buddy to be holed up with in a WW2 POW camp I'd choose him!

Agreed, the soundtrack was a little monotonous. It reminded me of soundtracks from the late 60's trade test transmissions.

Western Spaghetti

Interesting version of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody.

Cops vs Clowns is quite a masterpiece.

Danny MacAskill rides his bike around Edinburgh is a brilliant bit of trials riding footage.

Wow. Just... wow. So smooth. Looks like he's done a lot of, or taken a lot of cues from, freestyle BMX.

Check out the videos at Transgression Park - he is in a couple of them, and is seen fairly often down here.

Nice skate park in the centre of Edinburgh a mate of mine set up after he left my team. Interesting career change from IT to stunt dude.

Time Warp on the Discovery channel had some slo-mo trials bike footage a while back. It was pretty cool stuff.

The Tarantino Mixtape.

The problem I have with these mashup artists is that they're leveraging the creative efforts of others often without any attribution. There's talent and creativity in the mixing and composition, but to not credit the source is inexcusable.

I couldn't find any acknowledgements on that linked site nor their official web page for the Tarantino or other videos. Not even a simple list of source material.

ShamWow Song (ShamWow script put to melody/music): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsQcyhBsSjI&NR=1

Okay, this certainly isn't the best video of the year. But it's so cringeworthy it deserves a mention.

I'm so glad I never saw that when I was working on SP1.

Our ecosystem rocks!

I like this one, too-

about a minute too long, but well done.

Wow, he looks slightly odd without his glasses on.

True, though he hasn't had glasses for years now.
