Have any of you lived out of your car? | I'm considering doing it when my lease ends, and I'm looking for advice or interesting stories. How do you deal with getting internet? Have you brought a girl to your "home"? Do people living near where you parked get weird about it?

Time is only relative to us. The belief that upon your death it makes no difference if you lived 1,000 years or 100 years. | I know the basic argument would be; It does not matter because when you're dead you wont be able to comprehend anything, unless otherwise spiritually.
However, the point I am trying to make is that there is no unit of measurement for life. And living for 1,000 years has no difference to a life that only is alive 1 ye... |
Dear Reddit: What is your favorite movies with a "WTF" scene that adds nothing, except being weird. | In the Shining when we see the two people in mascot outfits having sex (or a blowjob, I refuse to remember). Any parts of movies that fall into this category? |
What is the most you have procrastinated on an assignment and still finished on time? | I had been putting off watching this film for a class along with its discussion questions for about a week.

Is there any special relation aside from the names of the functions? |
I just deleted the majority of my home folder. | Included all the personal projects I've done over the last couple years. I have backups of some of them, but not some of the more recent stuff.
How did it happen?
Well, I was installing a new distro (arch) and made sure I wasn't formatting /home, as I already had stuff there, and then when I got to my new system (wit... |
What was your weirdest sudden realization? | Belly buttons for me. I mean, I've obviously always known about them and everything, but I've never given them much of a second thought. In the shower I looked at my belly button and suddenly thought about how fuckin' weird they are. Everyone's got this weird little indention (or protrusion?) on their stomach, and we n... |
IAE sick of people jumping on the anti-Labor bandwagon when the alternatives are so much worse? | I'm absolutely sick to my stomach about internet censorship, however - put that in Abbot's hands and we're all stuffed.
Australia is a two-party preferred system - which means at this stage we're looking at Rudd or Abbot in 2011.
I will leave this country before I have to live under Abbot. Thinking back to growing up... |

The Wonderful World of Flash [list] | I posted this as comment here, but I'd thought I'd share it with y'all.
There are a lot of good flash animations out there. I too can't think of them off the top of my head so I searched for newground submissions on this subreddit. I don't have time to format this message, so let me just link dump all of the neat stuf... |

Any way we could work on spoiler-free Olympics coverage here? | 'Cause stupid NBC has decided they don't want to play anything live, and that somehow, despite being in the same time zone as Vancouver, California deserves to see everything several hours after it happens.
Perhaps in the future reddit could have some sort of spoiler-awareness upgrade such that spoiler-containing titl... |
Seriously, /r/ffffffuuuuuuuuuuu go fffffuuuuuuuu yourself. | Didn't we learn anything from the last time these made it to the front page? The people who like these really love them despite them not being witty and the people who don't like them hate them for the suck that they are. These things are the Sara Palin of comics. This polarization has the effect of inflating their pop... |
Best name for a function that replaces multiple whitespace characters with a single space? | So, I'm designing an API which will probably be ported to a few different programming languages. Since this will be used by outsiders and needs to be easy-to-use, it's important that I use good names.
I discovered that it may be helpful to have the following function (in Python):

Why do people like Dune so much? | I'm fairly into sci fi books (at least, I've really enjoyed the 5-10 I've read), but I recently read Dune and found it to be a little disappointing. I don't want to bore you with my superficial analysis, but I'm curious why it's such a popular book. |

I used to be a very judgmental person. However, I haven't gotten laid in 8 years. My perspective on everything has significantly changed. | This is a throw away account because it would be too embarrassing and possibly incriminating to share this. I consider myself a decently well off nice guy but for the life of me haven't had a girlfriend, much less gotten laid in 8 years. I used to write off soliciting prostitution as the lowest low but that was 8 years... |

(NBC) Worst Olympics Coverage Ever? | I think that NBC has outdone themselves this time with the worst Olympics coverage even.

Reddit, what are all of the "socialist" policies conservatives typically support? | Before the diction gestapo invades, "socialism" in American political discourse has come to mean government intervention in either social or economic policy. Gun control, for example, is "socialism" to a lot of American conservatives. It is not socialism as defined by political scientists.
With that said, here's the l... |
Who here has read "It Can't Happen Here" by Sinclair Lewis? | I've known about this book for a while and finally read it this year; I liked it so much I bought an original 1935 edition.

Hey Reddit, I'm fairly certain that my girlfriend of 4 months is planning to break up with me. What should I do? | Small backstory: We spent Valentine's day at my house, we ate bacon all day, watched a movie, had a grand ol' time.
In the morning, I left notes around my bathroom for her to find. This led to an origami rose that I make only for Valentine's Day which leads to another note wiped into the calcium deposits of my shower... |
Trying to work out personal intimacy issues. | Ok I'm just gonna say it straight up. We're all filthy diseased creatures. This is not a big deal. It does not bother me.

Hey reddit, if you could change one things in the world, what would it be? | It can be anything from going back to noahs ark to kill the two cats so there are no more cats in the world, to going back and giving yourself an A on the bar exam so you could be a lawyer. Whatever it is, please post one thing you'd change and why.

I got preordered STO and got in on the open beta, but i haven't logged in as many hours as most of you. Also, I've never played any MMOs before so everything is new to me. A lot of concept that I feel are obvious to everyone else is pretty new to me.

DAE really dislike listening to music? | I absolutely love playing and performing music, but I would rather listen to white noise 24/7 than just listen to music.

Hey /r/music - a break from 'zomg listen to this song/band' - where on the 'net can I find musical analysis of songs? | I guess in a similar vein to those sites about Tool's Lateralus album, which attracted a lot of analyses of various sorts (technical, mathematical, etc) due to its cult status as much as its complexity. There's also a lot of resources on most classical works, especially compositionally technical pieces such as Bach's f... |

Speaking of playing ME2 as a female character, how many of us Redditors are tired of Generic White Guy main characters? For something that is supposed to 'appeal to my demographic,' it's become quite boring | Whenever I can choose a character who's not a Generic White Guy, I will.

DAE think they should have left highschool with at least an associate's degree? | Sometimes I wonder why people that graduate with loads of college credit, do well in school and probably know more than a fair amount of people in community colleges can't graduate with an associate's degree of some sort. It would at least make high school not seem like a waste if they decided to not go to college or e... |

Path Tracing Question - n00b level. | I'm writing a path tracer for fun. One thing that seems odd is that the algorithm doesn't shoot a ray towards the light source at every surface intersection.
