People will take any opportunity to push you down the ladder. They worm their way through any small hole they can find and they attempt to change your perception of yourself to that of a lesser human being. It is even more petty when they d

I would love to see the single-use Rube Goldberg contraption that costs two million to kill someone. But nien, that is not what your parent meant by saying that it costs a lot to kill someone. It is the process of appeals and prosecution th

I'm really racking my brain here thinking of a way to fix my sentence. What I'm saying is that our human power and dignity does not come from the individual but the whole species. Like a colony of ants. A sort of species mind. It is the int

I understand your view. The situation makes me sad, and angry, all around. And I'm not talking about just this case. I have adopted a "we are homo sapien" (note: not plural) outlook toward humanism. Ideally, for me, we can let these guys li

We don't often learn something by killing, and it is barbaric. An ironic reflection of our own lust for blood. But, okay. Sure, it is satisfying since the "bitch has it coming." Capital punishment is the easy way out for the criminal and

I really like the way the "ink lcd" technology looks. The platform has a way to go, and I'm just going to wait until I see the added functionality.

What I want is a high resolution tablet ebook. That is, so I can take digital notes using the stylus. Then I'll take the leap, but for now. Ebooks won't replace paper for in-depth study.

I know it's hard; those boxes in which you write comments can be tiny I hate this. I tend to submit the comment with little proofreading, then I read the comment on the page and edit it a bunch of times.

I call them drive-by downvotes. I imagine some guy in a black leather chair going "hmph," with an angry face, then clicking the down arrow. This is why I find it annoying. I see a lot of DH3+ comments being downvoted with no explanation. Th

Can you recommend a guide? I would like to start a blog, which is technically no problem. It's just, running into all the abandoned blogs on the internet has been discouraging.

This puzzle reminds me of the Alcatraz puzzle: http://www.alcatrazthepuzzle.com/wst_page2.html And I thought that puzzle was stupid; though, probably because I solved it in seconds.

I've been apprehensive about the Tarkovsky book, which was why I never bought it for myself. But he's my favorite director. It just seemed badly translated to me, from the preview I read on Amazon. But now that I've read a few chapters, I h

I'm not sure if this counts; the birth of my hacking started on my dad's lap, doing amateur radio. We made our own radios with kits and parts from other things, and setup our own antennae outside. We even setup some crazy starmap printer, a
