lilela, the three columns of truth

In: Internet, Japan, ME ME ME ME ME ME! by Ptyx - 1:13 pm

Now, i’m posting in a collective place, for a better future, for the truth, a place where three black expressionless columns rise against ignorance : lilela.net.
It’s in french because the english internet has already too much stuff in it. The french internet is in dire need of good contents.

Anyway, ptyx.org isn’t dead it’s just sleeping right now.
To give an update to the three people reading this stuff here’s what happened. I joined a television channel here, in Japan. It was pretty gruesome at every level, especially the work hours. I’m doing freelance now while looking for a job, i’m also learning to use very nerdy software that no human being should be confronted with. This is the price we pay for toying with technology i guess.
Anyway i’m looking for a job in the post-production field, in Japan, i’m not looking for freelance stuff, i’m looking for a salary. Yes, i want more hours and more sweat, it probably comes from my catholic upbringing, even though i’m still not religious i still have the masochistic impulses.
Like many gaijins i’m wondering if i should leave japan or not. In a way it has been good for me, the past few years i’ve been there, in another it has been pretty rough.
People working in japanese companies knows what i’m talking about, foreigners or not. I may sound like it but i’m not complaining, i’ve learned a lot and i’m actually grateful for the pain (again that catholic stuff i was talking about).

Anyway we’re pretty happy with lilela (also known as lll), it’s an humble begining, no ego whatsoever, We basically take stuff from the internet, put it there and say “hey look at that!”.
It’s not very original, i know, but it’s done with love, what can you say against that. Love will always triumph, even against bittered internet hipnerd like us.

Internet should stop with his “memes”

In: Internet by Ptyx - 4:56 pm

Remember Hampster dance ? It was almost 10 years ago and one of the first internet meme that made a splash in the mainstream at the time.
Well it’s sad to see that after all these years the internet hasn’t evolved much yet.
The internet is a dumb asshole, i hate him.

Internet investigation in progress

In: Internet by Ptyx - 6:27 pm

Metafilter is a great website. It’s like a summary of what’s interesting on the internet. It’s not always that interesting but everyday there are enough links to piss your life away reading on the web instead of pissing your life away doing what you do at your dead-end job.
Plus it’s written, most of the time, in a pretty neutral tone, so you don’t have to cope with annoying internet personalities.
Another pretty cool side of metafilter is askMefi, a paralel site where mefi users can ask question and hopefully get answers from the other users. Yes, it’s like a regular forum except that metafilter users are  well versed at that internet game. Basically one user can shower you with links to obscure and ancient (pre-98) sites while the next one will debunks them and so on until you get a pretty good answer overall. The whole thing is peppered with personal words of wisdom from the users that couldn’t be hassled to throw some more links.
Anyway, back in November (i’m late i know) a guy asked what seemed to be an innocent question about being scammed on ebay. The usual talk between internet people about internet things on the internet.
What the guy in question didn’t know, is that internet people as skilled as the mefite posse can smell bullshit from hundreds of links away.
What ensued is a terrifying investigation by the mefi crowd, revealing almost everything there is to know about that guy’s existence on the web.
Basically he’s an ebay scammer, unable to ejaculate who lives in Bakersfield CA.
