I don’t think Douglas Adams was talking about eurocrats.... everything in HHGTTG was far closer to home than that. Never once did Arthur blame the EU for the demolition of his house. Prosser was the name of the official overseeing it ... an

Excuse me but you started off with “A is B” and I pointed out that well actually A is constituted of things that are actually some B but mostly C and a lot of D. Too which you respond “oh but I believe fervently that the part of A that is B

I loved neuromancer warts and all. It would be a terribly dull serious story otherwise. Rastafarians growing weed in low gravity. Love it.

Brave new world is a utopia - that it’s dystopian is something that is left to the reader to infer. Which is ultimately the point - if a modern human found themselves in such a world, could they be happy?

I’d love a modern day syndicate. I’d be afraid though, that they’d ruin it like they did Dungeon Keeper ... better of trying to pick it up on GoG or something ...

Cameras are expensive. The low-end to mid-tier ones that we are used to in our devices are subsidised. Just like they cut the price of meat and bread to below cost to get you into the supermarket. So it’s not a linear price scale because it

Check out Baz Luhrman’s Romeo & Juliet with Leonardo do Caprio ... it’s all original language but in a modern setting, it’s really very good!

Growth Hacking is a thing. Whether that counts as real growth or not I don’t know. But metrics can become suspect when they become a target. There are quite a number of people using Mastodon and it is quite nice but it does feel a bit echoe

That’s because they wrote it all in ruby, which don’t get me wrong is a fine language but did have scaling issues back in the day. As it happens this was a growth experience for ruby too. However limited their technology choice might have b

I’m not talking most people. I’m saying what little knowledge I have on this topic has saved me hundreds if not thousands on my home setup and I have complete control over it

What I’m finding is the components themselves are so cheap ... if you’ve a little knowledge you can rig up your own IOT setup that you actually have control over for pennies. Raspberry Pi is a great place to start.

It would be a case to be heard in court no doubt. It could be argued that the footage is but one corroborating account of events in the dream theatre. All it would take would be to independently capture some off camera activity. Director ha

So that’s just the kernel and it provides it’s own user land? Is that user land itself some a kind of app container host I could run Linux apps in for instance - but at arms length from each other? Am I getting this right?
