My sweet friend Serendipity wrote this in comments regarding an earlier article: A right to a decent standard of living? To be provided by whom? By those who created enough value that they received enough value in return for to not need such a guarantee? By forcing those others who are the current producers and…
I urge prudence and caution with regards to China. Whereas China may be having an economic growth more than three times the economic growth rates anywhere else, I pose this level of growth to be caused by authoritarian measures, low wages, lawlessness and unfair competition. Free, democratic and transparant societies cannot ever hope to compete…
(reprinted from here) How to Prevent a Global Aging Crisis July 17, 2010 by David Despain A handful of forward-thinking biogerontologists has joined together to offer a new direction for aging intervention. Their commentary, published July 14 in Science Translational Medicine, presents the case for preventing what the scientists call an “unprecedented global aging crisis”—a…
Responding to my “sister blog“, by Extropia DaSilva, I can have to share the following observations: (Hi Trophy!) I will rewrite/clean up parts of this post in the next days Technological Singularity: Is such a thing possible? No doubt all of you have come across people who think not, but what does it actually mean…

Reprinted from here, (By Allison Kilkenny) It seems like we see this same study every month. The gap between the wealthiest Americans and middle- and working-class Americans has more than tripled in the past three decades, according to a June 25 report by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. Yeah, but we’ve known that…

In all your travels, have you ever seen a star super-nova? No. Well I have. I saw a star explode and send out the building blocks of the universe. Other stars, other planets, and, eventually, other life… a supernova. Creation itself. I was there, I wanted to see it, and be part of the moment….
Reprinted from here, as suggested by James. A new book, “Just Give Money to the Poor,” says the poor will spend the cash wisely and boost the economy, too. By Melinda Burns Who’s responsible for the poor? Back in the reign of the first Queen Elizabeth, English lawmakers said it was the government and taxpayers….
It has become necessary that as a proactive, humanist parent your protect your children from online predators. A new means to do precisely that is by means of godblock, a software tool that keeps out the habitually deceptive and deluded from manipulating your loved ones in to pathological parodoleia. I strongly recommend you look into…

Cory blows 99% of all copyright arguments out of the water. This guy deserves a medal model. Obligatory watching, all 1.5 hour of it.

Hey Zobeid! (SoBeIt) I was recently made aware that the term ‘teabagger’ is regarded by some as an insulting slur, used by ‘liberals’ to negatively portray a certain movement active in the US. Now myself being ‘eurotrash’, what is my business referring to said movement X in anyway? Well – I personally have after some…

Today I was suppose to hang out with an amazing guy, Simon, at his aikido BBQ. I thought I had lived extremely modest the last days but still, I got only 20 euro left on my bank account, so I hadda skip out on that one – which still gnaws at me, because, yanno, my…
Being a career hysteric and dramaturge I am prone to exaggerating, hyperbole or ‘as some say’ a brickbat, I can’t help but wave loudly anytime I read something that gives me hope. So again with this article, written by Dusan Writer which I will reprint in full here. No I didn’t ask Dusan for permission…

Indulge me a bit of self-pity for a second. A few hours ago I had a moderate Cluster Headache attack. It’s OK, didn’t last long and the neighbours didn’t call the police (I tend to scream). I suppose this is the price I pay for being this fabulous. Having them, about oh 2-3 times a…
I had this dream tonight. It’s warm over here IRL, temperatures in the 30s, and nights are short, fevered and sweaty. I had a late pizza last night (couldn’t eat anything all day) and that always gives me restless dreams. This night the dream was a little more graphic than usual. I am going to…
SSPS == Space Solar Power Systems I am making a bold statement here. To anyone who reads this – I proclaim that we need governments, corporations and the science world to come together, with as many global players as possible, and do whatever it takes to implement solar energy ‘harvesting’ stations, an infrastructure to add…
CNN article; FORTUNE — There seems to be little doubt that unemployment is going to remain stubbornly high — quite possibly for years to come. There’s also mounting evidence that a good part of that unemployment is really structural in nature: The skills and capabilities of many experienced workers are simply no longer demanded by…
I am a bit sad looking at Twinity. I mean, it is Sisyphean to get this diamond up the hill. I strongly advocate the people behind Twinity to not give up and keep at it. I made this snapshot of my twinityness in Anshe Chung’s Palmadora. It is sad, lonely, empty and outdated, but I…
Gwyneth puts the massive lay off at Linden Lab in an interesting perspective.
There are now over a million of PC users worldwide that play Second Life. These are by and large somewhat older, empowered, more intelligent people [than the average gamer] and consequently can be expected to have higher spending power. So. What if a proven quality company closes a deal with Linden Lab. Then manufactures a…

In the Netherlands last night Geert Wilders and the PVV won. He was in a jubilant mood with 24 out of 150 seats in parliament. So my readers would ask ‘he won? with only a fraction of the votes’ and I’d say yes. That’s Geert. The electoral map was redrawn – the Netherlands is rife…
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXeot-KDupc&hl=en_GB&fs=1&] I had a look at the peregrine and if possible, I’ll get one later this year. It anticipate this tool to be ‘nice’ but underwhelming. I suppose the manufacturer (IWI) of the Peregrine is ‘feeling the water’ cautiously. Obviously like the technophile nut I am, I’d like more of this, and soon. I can’t…
In fact I’d love developing it along with some fun people or company! The game would be a classic ‘dungeons & dragons’ style fantasy MMO, but it would open up a totally new game environment. The text below is not far removed from my brainstorming draft, so bear with me – I may very well…
