Funny, the most interesting part of this story was the mention of his Palm Pilot.
And to answer your question, yes I still use a Palm Pilot.
I'm really not even qualified to put this out there, but could it be all of the REALLY HOT radioactive material from Fukushima making its way to the US West coast?
Or maybe underwater volcanic activity?
Or maybe your mom taking a bath? Oooooh, burn.
Sooner or later, they'll wake up to the fact that they're being subjugated, manipulated, and forced to live in poverty. "
Funny how substituting North Korea for other large nations of the world can still make the above sentence seem very relevant.
NK is definitely bad, but it's not the only one. Maybe just the most obvious.
Obviously the term "sacred geometry" is debatable...
"According to Stephen Skinner, the study of sacred geometry has its roots in the study of nature, and the mathematical principles at work therein.[3] Many forms observed in nature can be related to geometry, for example, the chambered nautilus grows at a constant rate and so its shell forms a logarithmic spiral to accommodate that growth without changing shape. Also, honeybees construct hexagonal cells to hold their honey. These and other correspondences are sometimes interpreted in terms of sacred geometry and considered to be further proof of the natural significance of geometric forms." (from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S... )
You said, Nature follows the rules of mathematics.. NOT sacred geometry.
I am giving the example in which nature follows sacred geometry (the Fib. sequence is related to sacred geometry, as in the Golden Ratio). No doubt sacred geometry is considered part of "mathematics". It's ok, I'll just assume you haven't had your coffee yet.
If so, explain the Fibonacci sequence occurring in nature..?
At first I was completely astonished that yet another (seemingly) natural phenomenon is related to the Golden Mean. It was a major epiphany in my mid-20's how nature follows the rule of irrationality, which still follows a pattern, and not simply rational numbers. It's sacred geometry in action.
The more I read, the more I realised that this is 'just another' verification of what I realized about nature and our universe. It's everywhere.. the design of snail shells, seashells, seed patterns in Sunflowers and so many other plant formations, spiral galaxy formations (Fibonacci spiral!), and now star illumination patterns. It's everywhere. It's a key to helping understand the nature of reality. Thanks for posting this!
The golden ratio is connected to the Fibonacci sequence
Thanks, I was about to say the same thing =p
So I'm kind of surprised that this is thought of as coming from extraterrestial intelligence at all.
That's what got me so excited, but then I realized it was just another manifestation of what already occurs in our universe all the time (golden mean, Fibonacci sequence). Doesn't rule out that ETs are using it for communication though - it's obviously caught OUR attention and interest, no?
The biggest issue with malware is that people don't understand the scope of the network their computer is hooked up to. If people just realized for a second that connecting your computer to the Internet is the equivelant of walking into a room with about 3 billion other people in it, then you'd be a wee-bit more conscious about what you do and who you trust.
I can't think of a single instance when something being FSF-compliant matters at all
Except for ones own piece of mind, of course. Which I guess doesn't matter.
Agreed. I'm actually an AVG reseller for many years. I always loved them when they just stuck to what they were good at, which was solid, lightweight antivirus protection (they held out longer than most). I guess it's inevitable that they will get dollar signs in their eyes and try to produce and sell everything else under the sun (PC Tune-up, Web Tune-up, Internet Security, Anti-Spam, Firewall, blah blah blah).. Ever since they did that, their core Antivirus offering got pushed aside and now they sell adware (constant pop-ups on the desktop to purchase add-ons, for instance). I still think they're one of the best out there, but that's really not saying much IMHO. Would love to see them get back to their roots as I'd feel better recommending it to my clients.
They say it's for "good energy" but really it's so you can gun down every motherfucker that comes for you before they even see your face.
I have no words. That is just gold.
In Trailer #2 ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?... ), 1:52
Yeah, that's totally what happens. I mean, they say it's the most realistic hacker movie since Sneakers, but all I see is a bunch of cheezy CG and an overwhelming desire for the movie to portray hackers as either criminals or criminals-turned-nsa-helpie-people.
Oh, but there's a bash prompt! That makes up for it, right?
From TFA: "...radio’s ‘local nature makes it an integral part of the daily lives of hundreds of millions of consumers in markets large and small’."
People like local content, it's as simple as that. It's a real shame that most local radio stations don't play music created by local artists, but it makes sense since most of them are owned by corporations that don't live in the area..
To do nothing is to be nothing.
