search-engines, torrent sites and this site, are
illegals. rules.


1. http://www.imdb.com/

i've found this site very useful over the last eight years,
and i think they have around a couple of hundred movies in
their database now.

2. http://www.discogs.com

it's like imdb, only with vinals instead + gotta know your
way around the marketplace.

3. http://www.dagbladet.no

norwegian newspaper, but not on paper. bigger pictures, and
now with even more dumbed down stories ++

what are ur's?

Allmusic Great place to learn about and find new
music.


Discogs Great place to geek around for hours. "So mr
IDM-star released a 7" single on Mongo records before he got
signed to Warp? Cool"


Underskog Because it's great fun. And still kinda
secret.

That's a tough one...

1. http://rateyourmusic.com

A useful site for anyone with more than an average interest
in music and records. I use it a lot as reference in my
neverending quest for yet more music.

2. http://www.pitchforkmedia.com

Yes, I admit it... I'm not a fan but what can you do?

3. http://www.dagbladet.no

Same as Presch... gives me my daily dose of the tabloids and
nooos. I prefer it over the other big daily paper in norway:
www.vg.no

I assume my mail service is also excluded?

1: Dagbladet, Bergens Tidende and Aftenposten.

All main tabloid sources, always entered simultaneously
(make a folder on the bookmark-bar in firefox and
middle-click to open all pages inside at the same time), so
they only count as one.

2: Etymology online.

Damned useful. It's like a dictionary, but with slightly
more information which, I find, helps the definitions stick.
It could be because they're related to other things besides
their own definitions.

3: Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy.

The quality of the entries vary, but it's still a good way
of figuring out whether or not a philosopher is worth
looking into. At least it beats Wikipedia.

1: BoingBoing - truly a directory of wonderful things.
they feature everything from photography and social activism
to diy projects and howto guides, nearly every post made on
this blog is worth reading.

2: Mac OS X Hints - a great frequently updated compendium of
all sorts of little tricks and hacks for os x. any user of
mac who halfway knows their way around some software owes
themselves a look or three around this site.

3: xkcd, cyanide and happiness, and the now sadly defunct
perry bible fellowship - the three best webcomics on the net, hands
down. each is supremely worth checking compulsively for new
additions (even though they are regularly scheduled, i still
do it)

and thanks for that encyclopedia of philosophy, drunkie.
i'll be making use of that in the coming days when im trying
to bang out my final senior thesis and fucking complete my
BA already.

AV Club: A daily dose of pop garbage. I rarely agree
with the reviews, most of the articles aren't so great, and
I don't care for The Onion, but somehow I keep coming back.
Right now they got a series on vintage blues that's worth a
look. The user comments are always active and often
informative/funny.

Mutant Sounds: Though ncot as great as it once was, I can
still spend hours searching through the odd album cover
archives. If I like the picture and it's got some user
comments, it's usually worth a look. 1/4 great rate so
far.

Google News: I'm sure there a better sources, but I can
easily pick and choose here and it works well as a homepage.

I was taking both a kant seminar and a class on the
philosophy of law, so i decided to try and combine the two.
It's essentially reading thru the law texts and seeing which
legal systems kant would find to be the most moral. and
it's turning out to be a bitch to write.

Granuiad is my paper of choice and the online version
is a great resource and a really well designed site.

well its just mostly looking at different aspects,
utilitarian vs. retributivism, punishment as punishment or
treatment for wrongdoing, acceptance of laws with which you
don't agree etc.

its a really awful paper, i pretty much screwed myself on
the topic, but ive done so much reading for it and only have
like a week and a half to finish it that starting something
else would be worse.

It's never too late. If something has popped up during
reading that is more interesting, I usually switch to that.

How's the system in USA? You said you're finishing your
final senior thesis.. I don't know what a senior
thesis
would be, but over here, it's normal that people
write a sort of bachelor thesis in their last semester on
the bachelor.. for every other subject but philosophy, that
is. I just wrote two papers each semester, same length and
other formal requirements as what seems to be the standard
for what the other students call a bachelor thesis. Then,
when I had taken enough classes, got enough "points," I had
a bachelor. No single paper was important in that "bachelor
thesis" kind of way.

I've also heard that the grades differ? We have A, B, C, D,
E and F. They used to have numbers (with decimals),
but changed to letters to make the system more
international. Strange, then, that they seem to have put in
another letter, and basically done everything differently
except for how they name the degrees...

yeah, senior thesis and bachelor thesis seem to be pretty
much the same thing. just my final paper to complete the
major.

and yeah, we have all those letters except for e, even
though generally anything below a c- (do you have the
plus/minus system there?) isn't considered passing, but a d
is slightly better for your gpa than an f.
