Mr Nash. A beautiful Mind. [235mins]. NOTE: this ainât for kids.
Older PBS Documentary [56mins].
So this week - I shall take a different tack.
I donât usually log onto the BBC (or the Beeb as we call it over here), but I found something #disruptive .
Mark Thomas is an anarchist, and well known for his âThe Streets Are Ours !â views.
Here he is with a spin on the Peopleâs Manifesto, which I believe you can get on the updated youtube-dl, from the command line.
Heâs done 4 episodes in all.
Good luck, hope you like it. Itâs only half an hour or so long.
Classic Mark Thomas.
I was at the recording of this show back in 2009.
One of my all time favourites. Between 1998 and say 2003 this was my favourite movie of all time.
HEAT(1995).

guys either a genuius, or a patsy = you decide.
An Unreasonable Man (Biography Film 2006)
I recently joined a community group that is called âwellbeingXXâ.
âXXâ being the [insert here] country that it is based.
After contributing and listening to various (mostly retired) people at the meeting, we decided to adopt certain
actions and concentrate on how we could improve wellbeing for the area.
There were about 30 people that go there.
The initial organisers have long since left and our next, second, meeting is a week or so away.
I spoke one one of the organisers who said I needed to do some economic homework,
and this is what I was given to watch.
Funnily enough ~ I also watch âalternative streamsâ on youtube, notably the Keiser Report,
in which one of the makers of the film gave a compelling interview, for 20 minutes or so.
Here it is, please ignore the goofy cover-image, as I regard this as serious stuff.
There are several quotes which work well in the kind of group that I now go to.
That being a community action group, trying to find green shoots, in a debt-ridden society.
⊠Hope all goes well, because thereâs a_lot of thinkers out there, that just need a platform to offload,
and I think weâve found the secret-sauce to do that.
Happy hacking, #BadVoltage
This documentary about BANKSY, was the best thing to come out of 2010, for me.

No office, Chilli, but can someone please ding these links and embeds to infringing copies of full movies? Pretty sure thatâs not what this community is for. Pirate Bay is over that way ---->
No office, youself, neuro, but if you check the log - you shall see that @sil says they are fine ~(just so long as theyâre not torrents).
Now, hang on. I agree with @neuro here; we donât want direct links to infringing copies of full movies. I havenât been following this thread, but I didnât have a problem with linking to a whole reddit community. Nor do I have a problem with, say, the Four Horsemen link, which is officially published by the producers, or to trailers or mashups. But direct links to infringing copies are not on, I think, whether torrent or streaming; leaving the ethical argument aside, half of the published links (to The Corporation, the IT Crowd behind-the-scenes DVD footage, Spaceballs) donât actually work now because theyâve been taken down. So, please donât post links to illegitimate full movies; weâve already had a link to a reddit community about this stuff, which people can go and investigate if they want.
Cheers, Aq. Exactly my point.
So, no! What made you think it would be acceptable, given Aqâs comment above?
@neuro So YOUâVE BASICALLY KILLED MY THREAD ?
Christ, whatâs the point in sharing at all ?
Cheers mate thanks for that - you seem to be hell-bent-on-killing everything I say or do.
Nothing wouldâve happened if you hadnât of said anything.
Now youâve gone and ruined it - WELL DONE, matey ! Hurarr for @neuro
Not that you give shit, thatâs obvious.
Why do I bother, sharing on this site, if Iâm just going to be muscled out the argument ?
Same old story. Iâll just be in corner for the next week listening to chill music to relax.
The thread is entitled âSuggestions for the Weekend Filmâ, not âLinks to Infringing Copies of Copyrighted Works That Neither You or I Have Paid For, or Have Licensed from the Copyright Holderâ.
I assumed when I first saw this thread that you, and others, would suggest, and subsequently discuss the merits of, movies to watch at the weekend. At some point, you decided to start linking to, or embedding, infringing copies of copyrighted works. Most people donât get too worked up about a embed of a movie trailer that someone other than the director(s), producer(s) or studio responsible has shoved up on YouTube. Most community managers do get worked up when forum members start putting up embeds of entire movies.
I personally have no problems with this thread being chock full of movie discussion, in fact, Iâd welcome it, due to my movie buffness. I personally have a lot of problems with dodgy YouTube embeds and torrent links being posted, since that potentially endangers both the poster, the forum, and the people who run the forum; you know, the people who make the podcast you listen to. I obviously have no authority over what you can, and canât do, since Iâm not an admin, but I believe I have enough moral standing to berate due to a) my long tenure as a beloved tolerated member of both this community and the LUGradio community before it, and b) that one line of text at the bottom of each page: donât be a dick. Iâm not saying you are a dick, just that you are exhibiting dickish behaviour in your infringing posts. Please stop that.
Thereâs a marked difference between âsharingâ and âcopyright infringementâ.
I apologise if thatâs the impression you get. I just enjoy a full-throated discussion about stuff. Is this a five minute argument, or the full half hour?
If weâre waving hands around and pointing fingers at things, it was Aq who first pulled you up for linking directly to copyright infringing material, not I. You are the one who continued to link directly to copyright infringing material, and youâre implying something along the lines of âand I wouldâve gotten away with it, if it werenât for you pesky kidsâ, and thatâs what I give a shit about.
Share away, just donât link to something that is illegal.
