The guy looks and sounds like an American estimation of a British lower-class person, while the police officer (wearing what can only be described as a blue overall with a black belt) sounds like Ricky Gervais.

This is a normal post As a parody of just about every tedious, dull-as-dogshit real-life show on telly, it pretty much nails it.
As such, I think there is humour within. That humour being the thing that makes you cry with depression at the fucking state of what passes as entertainment on the shitpump these days.
I accidentally pushed the wrong button the remote last night and was subjected to a few seconds of The Illusionists on ITV. I nearly died. One bloke was going to do a Houdini trick (being drowned, basically) and the presenter ACTUALLY say "who better to check that these handcuffs are real than Bonnie Langford!??" I could think of at least 4 people.

This is a normal post My mum bought us a telly a month ago in the mistaken belief that we actually wanted one.
Seeing as we have no intention of paying for cable, we bought a Hulu subscription, and plug a tablet into it. It works well, because you have to plan what you want to watch, and there is not the option of just switching on the telly and channel surfing. In short, we watch about an hour a night, and it's always something we want to watch.

This is a link post Shane Meadows: thoroughly lovely man. I made this!
This might be of limited interest, but if you like Shane Meadows, then you might like this. I've been running a tiny fortnightly film club- The Beestonian Film Club at Cafe Roya - above a restaurant in Beeston, a few miles outside Nottingham. Usually just showing shorts and work from local directors to around 30 people paying a few quid to see some arty shorts and get a meal for just a few quid, it ticks along quietly. However, I got a call over the Autumn, with a gruff voiced bloke reckoning he was Shane Meadows asking if he could come along. I assumed it was a piss-take, but no, he really was Shane, and fancied showing a load of shorts never shown in public before. So we arranged an evening,drew up a programme, and I managed to badger the former film editor of Q Magazine, and Guardian reviewer, Ali Catterall to come up north, sleep on my sofa, and do a Q+A with the amazing director man. He agreed, and this is the result, one of the weirdest nights of my life. We also raised a chunk of money for Oxfam, and even had a guest star: the Broadchurch-tastic Vicky McClure came along too. We're looking at getting Speilberg and that Michael Bay along for 2014...

This is a normal post They are also continuing to demonise the unemployed,
which can't exactly help with the self esteem issues mentioned.

I wonder if the "nothing to live for" is a side-effect of the way people usually define themselves by what they do for work, which no longer makes sense now that people rarely work in what they are most qualified for, want to do, or even doing work which needs to be done.

would be the alternative. Make that the status symbol.

At the moment, we don't even celebrate work, we celebrate wealth and in doing so encourage greed rather than kindness or skill. Work done well rarely pays financially, and neither does kindness.

"What do you do in your spare time" is always a far more revealing question than "What do you do for a living".

Not everybody can work in an office. And even if they could, they are happier welding in a snowstorm than bonking Jane from accounting over the copier in warm office..

Education should value more manual labour and get kids to study it without having the "Dumbarse" label stuck on.

Religion has in no way, shape or form helped humanity. Some people of faith helped, but their respective science fiction best-sellers did not.

This is a normal post Well it does not
No operative with a brain would use internet, emails or the phone to pass information.
It would be akin to Osama bin Laden asking the CIA to give a letter to Ayman al-Zawahiri and "promising not read it". And hoping they would not put a 1000 pound bunker buster from a B2 through each letter box.

So , normally it's disposable couriers with heavily encrypted USB sticks...
So you need people on the ground doing human intelligence, not dorks reading emails to your mom. And then not bloody ignoring said intelligence.
The only notable exception is money, following transfers and a accounts. But banks are in noooooo way linked to making money off drug cartel and worse. And they are also the only ones with the funds to be able with NSA toe to toe.

So, if NSA and it's peers are hoarding all this info that is useless against terrorism, why is it being hoarded? I can only see economic reasons, not safety.

This is a normal post that all depends on what type of encryption you are using
we are pioneering a new identity based cryptographic algorithm with a tonne of extra security features. Like distributed key servers, no one server knows the master key and it's never stored on disk, you would have to hack 3 individual servers and dump the memory from all of them then try and work out how to combine the parts. Even then the parts only make a valid key when combined by the user, in their browser using true end to end 2 factor authentication.

Security online is more that possible, it's big companies and the government that are fucking it up for everyone else. Microsofts phone factor acquisition is a joke, it took me half an hour to get a code sent to my phone and it's not even true 2 factor. That could easily be intercepted.

Edit: It's hard times in the security industry unless you are google, then you just make some stupid gimmick like face recognition to unlock your phone, everyone buys it, even though it sucks.

And there's an app to load that into a Predator's Hellfire.

Even with "crackable" 128 encryption, if you layer it, like 3 deep, good luck breaking it before our first space ship gets to Proxima Centauri.

So, the only ones getting hit are normal people working for normal companies.

Edit; you are right about Microsoft... Back in 2009ish, I thought that with my 15 letter password my PC was safe.
So I got into an argument with our resident hacker/IT dude over lunch.
We got back to the office, he stuck a hard drive in as a master, and booted it in DOS (!), rummaged around a bit, found the file, copied it, removed hard drive.
Done. 5 minutes. He then beat windows encryption in less than 5 minutes with a little program he had written because he was "fucking tired of salespeople losing their passwords".
A few months later, we had our own tailor made encryption...
The passwords were stuff you could remember but long. Like: "My mum has a 350z with a blower and a lift"... Made up stuff, the longer the funnier the better, but never "real" stuff. My mum does not have a 350z. Etc.
Made me respect our IT dudes more.
