Consider observing one or more cultural ceremonies, traditions, and rituals about death of a loved one. There's tons. Don't be afraid of "cultural appropriation". We're all human. You're not hurting anyone by t

I thought I would. But my old CDs are gathering dust ( I wish I had kept their jewel cases so I could have sold them), I threw out all my old cassettes fifteen years ago, and all my LP records a decade ago. Bah. Good riddance. I'd rath

Thinking about it makes my RSI flare up. I'm probably just too much of a control freak to deal with the uncertainty of browser-craft. (All respect to those who do web stuff) I'm from a painterly background and do cgi. If I want a

IMHO it's to help support their podcast: http://html.energy/podcast.html Seems niche and fun to me. Not that I'll participate. I made a website once, never again.

It's mainly a solution to the Byzantine Generals problem which is basically about forcing trust among the trustless or untrustable. How does it solve that? By forcing the participants to invest in the system in such a way that they can

How awful. I try to live: Never accept unsolicited anything. Always be the one to instigate contact. This did bite me in the butt once when my bank sent me an email with a naked link telling me to update my something-or-another that I don&#

Moving to Canada from the USA extended my expected life span by 4 years. 4 YEARS! That's only the average. Sheesh. Actuary tables are kinda the end all be all for living: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_count

My process. 1) Ugh, they cheated. How dumb. 2) No, wait, that's clever. I like it. 3) Oooh, it's that perennial solution of thinking with orthogonality. 4) Wait, what? The golden ratio's in there?! No. Way! That's so coo

Sure, you and I could push the button. But we're not in a position to do so. Now, all the people in a position to do so are chained by perverse incentives to keep the whole shit show going.

Sure, whole countries would be in chaos... but only for a few days, I think. FB isn't doing anything original anymore. There's tons of clones and some are markedly better. Yea, maybe a few businesses would fail, maybe some people

Another vote for G.E.B. I've come to realise that it's a bit long winded and winding, but it's pretty nice to go deep into. Like, just read it straight through.

Same, but KDE fwiw. Yuck. I don't need it, I don't want it, get it away from me. But I'll be the last to yuck someone's yum. Have at it y'all. It's just not for me.

The standard boilerplate for any real success in life: Stay off social media. Don't read/watch the news. Exercise regularly, outside if possible. Eat whole foods, mostly plants. Drink plenty of water. Get plenty of sleep. Stay awa

Maybe. I find the less I rely on my phone for organization the better. Why? It's another step away from getting things done. It can crash. I can forget to use it. All sorts of reasons. A big white board on the wall? Pretty robust in ma

easy, voting blocs, you assign yourself to the results of people who vote similarly to you. additionally there'd be local and regional blocs too. I can't think of a reason that the naive everyone sees everything everyone else is d

Oh, cool! I love the idea of taking positive control of one's life. I had a similar-ish system for when I was unemployed for a long stretch years ago. It was a white board I cut into 8 parts and labelled, "Exercise, Hygiene, etc..
