Hey, I remember this! Shame it never seemed to go anywhere. Though then again, the wiki's still up? :/

Here's another interesting book review. It's about the promise, and failure, of the Soviet Union in the 50's. :/

Hey, so I think I managed to optimize Agora so it should run pretty okay now. Low power computers will likely still have some trouble, but the rest should handle it okay. And it runs a LOT better in chrome or chomium then it does in firefox. Take a look and tell me how it works for you? XD

Hmm. Anyone know how to search through your really old post history? I forgot to write down all the ideas people were giving me for O.M.N.I. acronyms a while back. :X

My sore throat extends into my nose. This is a violation of my core rights and a final and absolute proof that there is no God. :(

So my smartphone (Samsung Galaxy S6) has completely locked - doesn't even listen to power button and audio buffer is on loop, emitting horrible screaming noise. What do? :/

We lost five hundred million to Smallpox.
So we destroyed Smallpox.

Hundreds of millions of us are still in poverty.
But fewer every year.

Hundreds of thousands are lost to Malaria.
But fewer every year.

Our problems are legion.
Then so will our compassion, dedication, and ingenuity.

There is no destiny written for us.
Then we will write our own.

We may lose.
But we will try anyway

because there isn’t anyone else.

The universe is vast, and dark, and cold.
But we are not.

The stars are silent, and ancient, and impossibly far away.
But we are not.

The laws of physics are indifferent to hope, or desperation, or love.
But we are not!

Does anything in the universe care?
Yes! We care! There is light in the world, and it is us!

We are flawed.
We’re learning.

We are fragile.
We’re getting stronger.

To the best of our knowledge, we are alone in the universe.
But we have each other.

Our history is littered with tragedy and despair.
We can do better.

We visit countless cruelties and injustices on each other to this day.
So we must do better.

Anybody else find that no matter how much they want to interact with other people, far too often when they do they end up regretting it? :/

Hmm. So I'm thinking of running a quest (a forum game where you all vote on options and then I write based on them) my internet forum, just as a test. Would anyone be interested in participating? Or is it not user friendly enough for y'all to feel comfortable using it? :/

All of a sudden, I have an intense desire to make really inflammatory youtube videos with titles like "Rich people are cancer" and such. :/

Huh. I sthere a mastodon for music? :/

My roommates had a really good idea for a TV series and it'll never get made. Truly, there is no justice. :/

Arrgh. To be passive aggressive with the bumbling support team or not to be passive aggressive with the bumbling support team? Truly, the path of righteousness is trying. :/

Aaaaaargh. I want to buy all the books, but I don't want to spend all the money. Truly, life is suffering. :/

...Huh. What if we made advertising illegal? Or at least, extremely restricted? I know it would be hard to enforce... :/

Moreover, how long till they get good enough at it that we start needing to use them for security? :/

Hmm. How long do y'all think it'll be before we start seeing neural networks used for hacking? :/

Aaargh. Now I have a cool idea for a gritty cyberpunk setting exploring wealth inequality, transhumanism, and all that, and I know I'll never have the time to take it anywhere. :/
