Dwigger.com - Beta Test for Sifters Only (Sift Talk Post)
>> ^Krupo:
I tried logging in and nothing happened...?

Hmm. No one else is having such trouble. Did you enter "sifter" and "meatbag" on the splash screen? After that you just login with your Twitter username/password.

>> ^swampgirl:
Alrighty I'm assuming that it takes a bit for Twitter to update a new member. How do you post globally? I only had the option to post to the cities.

I guess it's less obvious than I thought. The "global" tab lists all posts regardless of location, whereas the "locale" tabs (LA, SF, etc.) only show posts in that area. So if you select "none" for the location, it will only show up on the "global" tab and not the others.

I changed the "global" tab to say "all" so hopefully that will make it a bit clearer.

Hi mty-
Just wanted to let you know I removed the Long flag from this video because it's just shy of the requisite 10 minute length.

Finally watched it, btw. Excellent post.

As an admin, I can remove your accidental downvote if you want.

As the submitter, I ask that you want.

In reply to this comment by Crosswords:
Totally didn't mean to downvote. Well since I did I might as well think of a reason... hmm... what a horrible waste of gas that must be for such a trivial thing.

Borat On Fox News
LMFAHS. "Free and open elections.. The next one is in 2041."

When "Borat" was promoting his film he did every single interview in character and his interviewers were likely all aware of that fact.

Adam Savage Falling Off a Treadmill in Slow-mo
I think the faq currently says if you post a clip from a longer segment already sifted then it's a dupe, but I don't understand that myself. Seems like if you post a longer video that is composed mostly of shorter clips already sifted, that should be the only dupe situation. But that's just me.

Great video. LMFAHS.

Skater Hit by Car: Lucky to Be alive! Gets right back up!
OMFG. He had to have broken some bones. Both tires ran over both of his legs... Perhaps adrenaline masked the pain.

I wonder about the aftermath.

Did I hear someone say "You better not try to get any money" or something?

Google Chrome (Google attempts a browser) (Blog Entry by BicycleRepairMan)
Used it for 5 minutes and just wow. Loving it thus far. Very slick...

One bug (?) so far is mouse wheel up doesn't scroll up, but down works fine.

[edit]
Awww, shnap! The tab dragging (side to side and in and out), memory used per tab, stats for nerds, ... This is a beautiful thing.

[edit]
Fantastic developer tools, js console, etc... The super fast V8 javascript engine... Independent tab execution... You can type view-source:http://www.videosift.com to see the source of a page without having to load it first...

Oh Chrome where have you been all my life?! Seriously, this thing's top notch.

Hehe. Well I saw the episode on TV and came on the Sift to see what people were saying about it, but no one posted anything.

All the bits were pretty great so I just avalanched it and hoped for the best.

It's not the case. It looks like it's actually the minus ("-") symbol which is directing the search engine to only find results which do not have the word "total" in them.

In reply to this comment by Thylan:
So, i want a vid for the cheesefest, and put "Bonnie Tyler - Total Eclipse of The Heart" into the advanced search adn get nothing. Yet when im part way through the submit, it fials as the embed is already here. titlte "bonnie tyler - total eclipse of the heart"

Is advanced search fucked up by capitalisation? would it help if it stored only uncapsed to search from (or retrieved as that when searching) and masked a string to lowercase when comparing?

Low Gravity - Mythbusters Bust Moon Landing Conspiracies
The problem is some people will always find reasonable doubt because they want to, and unless they are actually in a spacecraft watching the astronauts walk on the moon, they will simply refuse to believe any evidence that says otherwise. (I wouldn't be surprised if even in that case such a person would suggest maybe a TV monitor was taped to the other side of the window to play a pre-recorded video of actors walking on a moon set.)

The same may be said for any theorist of any conspiracy. That doesn't mean every conspiracy is incorrect, just that most life theorists brush off any solid evidence of the contrary to embrace the plot lines that are personally most attractive and fulfilling.
