    Preparing for a Prototype

    Well, with 2D gravity as opposed to 1D. Ooh boy is it satisfying when you guess the mass (space curvature) of the intervening asteroids and score a long range hit! Was fun with 3 or more players, so maybe we can get a game together someday.

    First form a communal consensus in order to decide what questions may be asked.

    Back from Greece

    Hard to argue with that picture. [EDIT] I'll add that dark grey makes a visual association with Thinkpads, which should make it look more worth the price to some potential buyers.

    Someone not giving you something you want isn't "impinging on your freedom". If you think it is, then you are impinging on my freedom to drive a Ferrari. Please stop that and give me the Ferrari. [EDIT] An op-ed on the Finland summit that's worth reading...

    The GPL prohibits uses of the software. Calling that 'freedom' is an abuse of language. Public domain (abstaining from limiting any uses) is free. Public domain works are free of a 'license', which is another reversed word that actually means 'prohibitions'. Because the GPL contains...

    I missed this post earlier, and I need to respond. There are a few things in society which require consensus, but not many. We are better off when we don't need to rely on this process. Individual people have different preferences and goals. There will always be people who do not agree with...

    Thanks for the reply, xnop. You brought up lots of interesting things. But first please know this: I'm not a defender of the status-quo. For a variety of reasons, there are many wealthy people who got that way by means of coercion and fraud (or by working for organizations that did)...

    If you'd like to know my 'vision' it would be a free market in health services and products, without the hundreds of thousands of pages of cost-exploding procedural interference currently dictated by the government. That, to my mind, also includes eliminating the interference by patent...

    To ible: We don't have free-market capitalism. Of particular relevance here is that we do not have free-market money: we have centrally-planned money production. Wages stopped tracking productivity right when the central bank pushed the Nixon administration to abandon the gold-exchange...

    Neural Network synthesizes politician voices

    You want to go there? Ok. The alleged preferential medical treatment and research for men is a fraud. In the USA, women's diseases get over double the research money as male-specific ones. Women get more and more expensive treatment as well...

    I'm sure they can improve accuracy by adding 'if, if, if, if, if ifififif" in the middle of a sentence. ;)

    The central tendency of anarchism as a mass social movement has been represented by anarcho-communism and anarcho-syndicalism. Beginning largely with the libertarian economist Murray N. Rothbard, anarcho-capitalism (of which voluntaryism is a variant) quickly grew in influence...
