Arrested for a Sign – From the Mind of Charles

On April 18th, I was arrested. This normally wouldn’t be big news, but the situation arround which I was arrested brings up serious questions. I was arrested at Kutztown University, where I am a student, because I decided to try to liven the mood after the Life and Liberty Ministries began to upset students.I decided not to simply let them upset people, so I went to the bookstore and purchased a posterboard and sharpie marker and made my own sign. It said “Equal Rights for Robots”, a saying I thought no one would be able to take the wrong way.

Has he not ever watched the Terminator??? Robots should be oppressed!! =)

It is can be LOLCODE time plz? – Linux.com

They’re in ur Intarwebs, creating a programming language. The attack of the lolcats has spilled over to programming, with LOLCODE, a language based on the mangled grammar of lolcats. Pull up a buckit and I’ll help wif ur understanding of LOLCODE.

Of course, like lolcats, LOLCODE has no practical or educational value, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t fun — and how often do you have the opportunity to get in on the ground floor of the development of a programming language, anyway?
