Unaccountable predators
That is what is currently the zeitgeist of sexy. Movies say it – The ones who matter are a rich, sexy, beautiful killers that live mostly above the law. And they want something from you you can’t afford to lose. Check out my SCOOP.IT or email me
Sanctum (tower defence game)
Niiice! Splicing game genres has future. While in itself a fairly straightforward 3D immersive shooter grafted on a tower-defence game, this sure has potential. Just the demo was kinda funny. I would not call the design of fields, weapons and barriers/defensive systems very good, but it wasn’t bad either. In essence a number of varied…
Warhammer 40K, Space Marine
Pubescent and ‘white trash’, but has a nice flow It’s a shooter, tough guy with sidekicks shoots and chainsaws through enemies. Most 40K are intellectually and morally somewhat distasteful games. Yes I judge these games – the setting is quite banale. The entire 40K setting is stitched together from an endless sequence a yob fascist…

Sheep Shearing
This this “engineered” or just plain “stupidity” ?

When
(source) (Over 10,000 people have read this post. Please consider sharing it.) When? by jay8085 I’ve never answered when. In 2003 I made the precipitous decision to abandon trying to make money, and to store my wealth in the form of reputation capital. It was the Euro that did it; I looked at history, particularly…
More Troubling Than Ever
Yes I realize this is a troubling video, and yes I realize statements such as these offend people. But the arguments are rather shocking in their lucidity. I am aware this implies conclusions which are starkly unthinkable at some level – but if there is any merit to this representation of facts and insights and…
Creative neologisms: “Iyudrae”
Sometimes I feel the need to call something for which there is no word, and label the concept. Today’s neologism is the word Iyudrae, and it stands for something distinct. Try following me as I describe the concept. In any process where sentient constituents of a collective (i.e. people) are in a process of voluntary…

Americans abandoned their country. Time for a new revolution.
A brief history of the ancient science of sword making
IO9 The sword is the perennial symbol of empires, knighthood, chivalry and fantasy. But it’s also one of the world’s most ancient technologies, connected with breakthroughs in metallurgy that would change the world. There are even some types of ancient swords so strong that modern science still can’t determine how they were made. How is…

The Scale of Evil
Level 1 : “Those who kill in self defense and do not show psychopathic tendencies.” Level 2 : “Jealous lovers who, though egocentric or immature, are not psychopathic; crime passional” Level 3 : “Willing companions of killers: aberrant personality—probably impulse-ridden, with some antisocial traits” Level 4 : “Those who kill in self-defense, after extremely provocative…
The K Rozette.
There is the normal 2×2 method of predicting future scenario trends, where the futurist or model maker produces four distinctive different scenarios emphasizing a range of possibilities. I use a variant on that, which I would label the K model or K rozette. I take some inspiration from the de Bono thinking hats clearly (sighs…
