Revenge of the Sith

My original idea was to unplug my connection to a television signal.
That got changed to blocking all of the stations accept PBS and the kids cartoon station. Now...I feel I have to stay in tune and tuned up during the 2012 presidential cycle that began a month ago. For once I want to be as wide eyed during the cycle as much as possible...as I continue to miss things about candidates I end up voting for that would otherwise have caused me to not vote for them.
I want to put an end to voting to stop the other guy from getting in. There is a high chance in 2012 I may just write in a candidate given the historic nature of 'both' parties that typically sit at the top. So, stay tuned...because I'm going to get a bit radical in my dogma.
I have come to the conclusion that the Republicans and Democrats on the national stage are some of the greatest threats to the citizens of the united states of the Bank of America. the rhetoric and policies of the liberals and conservatives do nothing but further capitalism, which only benefits the people who already have all the money, regardless of what all of you believe or think. sure...you can get pretty well off on your own means if you have the correct amount of luck, backing and intestinal fortitude. But, no matter how big your house is in the lot and how much your monthly lease is for your car you still lose.
The reason you lose is because 10 minutes by car from your enclave is a group of youths who are desperate, isolated and resigned enough to their fate to do what it takes to ease their wants and placate their sense of desolation by taking it from you.

A couch by another name is a little bigger than a loveseat or a chaise lounge.

In discussing the horrors of computer disseminated intelligence I got on the subject of semantics and verbiage. There are a number of things that have a variety of names. Like the Eskimos supposedly have 10,000 works for snow.

For about a decade now I ponder ever so often the reason why we have a number of different terms for a ‘couch’. Yet I have not been motivated enough to actually find out why.

Couch

Davenport

Sofa

Divan

Chesterfield

Semantics…but apparently from quick internet based research sofa would seem the most appropriate, but only when the political climate is not controlled by Arab hating zelots, since sofa comes from suffah which is essentially the same thing.

Because the blood of Americans is blue, since red is communist.

The Temple of DOOM

In order to implement this site into its original intent, which I forgot about from the beginning I will begin posting some conversations I generate in life.

I walked up to a coworker and told her that the heart pulling scene from the Temple of Doom popped into my head. Then when I found out she really dug Indiana Jones I asked her opinion on the last movie, which many people didn’t like. She said it was good until the end when it turned into a big cliché. I corrected that idea and saying they are all that way.

The original 3 movies are no so far in the past that we have all romanticized their quality. They are no Gone with the Wind, never have been and never will be great pieces of literature. So sit back, let reality take a back seat and enjoy the ride. Remember also, aliens are just as believable or unbelievable as boxes that melt Nazi’s and Jesus.

Insert witty title here

Hmm…so much to talk about, so much to stress about but I want to keep some semblance of coherency with this post…

So lets just go back to one of my original declarations that my life is controlled by robots, some of it by choice some of it not so much.

Earlier this week according to an article in my only semi trusted printed media outlet, BBC, there was this article.

Let me know when you get done reading it…

Done yet?

No seriously, read the fucking article you lazy fuck, because I’m not going to give you the cliff note of a cliff note.

Did you really read it?

Ok, fine forget you them, on with the conversations.

So it’s quite interesting that they have discovered some semblance of evidence for possible organic ‘lifeforms’ on Titan that could be contributing to it’s varied and stable atmosphere. I would love to see what would happen with some implemented terraforming on the moon. Commercial space exploration can quickly get us to a point of this being a viable option…but at the cost of…

OK…if you have read the article I linked to you would be wondering what the fuck I was referencing too…it was a test to see if you actually read the article or not.

Fucking read it!!!!!

Ok, on with the real thing, thanks for spending the same amount of time it would have taken you to originally read the article instead of going through my bait and switch thinking I would do it for you.

The biggest implication I am concerned about is using this advanced artificial processing power to disseminate information for people. Look, I understand when you type in ‘slavery’ in Google it takes a long time to get to an actual article about human slavery in modern and historical applications, as opposed to a bunch of malware Russian sites about bondage. That doesn’t mean we should rely on outside sources to further filter that information for us than it already is. I think the real problem with that concern is proper search etiquette. Just type in ‘slavery in America’ or ‘work conditions in modern China’…just be more specific.

Where my concern comes in is that people are contemplating the idea of using artificial intelligence to figure out what information to disseminate…this is about as promising in accuracy and completeness as asking the government to do the same thing.

The implications I see with this is a further buffering of information to the masses, a way to counteract an educated populace. We are already to the point where the majority of the population in America tunes in to narrow band frequencies to generate their opinions. They do so and are content to take the information at face value because they have decided to arrange their value system around it. This leads to the scenario of women voting for candidates who have histories of incredibly destructive policies towards women.

People choose not to question things that they want to hear, so they never look into the ‘facts’ being presented to them. When they hear thing’s that conflict with their ideals they turn to their trusted information sources to correct the facts for them, instead of researching it themselves. It’s too hard and there isn’t enough time for someone to look up the facts on a simple subject, especially if they consider making a balanced meal too time consuming for them to waste their time on. We have an increasingly growing population of citizens who will abandon everything else for the sake of perceived convenience.

To see what will happen when computers determine how much information we need in relation to what we are looking for view this.

I rest my case.

Scarlet Letters!!!

Why does the letter C get so much love? What about the letter S? It does some of the same jobs as well and even begins the word0 See. I think it’s a shaft job by the front of the alphabet to hold down the end of the alphabet. Shit just look at the lack of work provided by X, Y, Z? Y is even part of the exclusive vowel club but only part time, it’s like Y has 2^nd rate citizenship because it doesn’t get as much love from the other vowels. Elitist fucks.

A, B, and C have been running the game for so long now no one questions their authority at the head of the pack. They are the spokesmen of the alphabet while everyone else falls behind their shinning spotlessness. The first half seem to be a pretty exclusive bunch yet you can sense some tension in those ranks, especially with G.

G is the fat one that everyone knows shouldn’t really be there but relegating it to the back of the pack might tarnish their reputation some so they put up with G’s ungainliness. It should really be closer to Q, who is one of the most shunned members of the tribe. Q can barely stand up with out the support of U even with its kickstand. It must be due to U’s membership in the vowel club.

While C is more famous than S; S, T and U with the help of O try to usurp power over all the other letters in the ghetto of the alphabet. Using their popularity as supporting characters (with a hefty amount of starting positions) to subjugate their fellow destitute letters.

Perhaps the best solution for the disparity in the alphabet is to inject some of the systematic uniformity on the numbers into the mix, decimal communism, where everyone shares importance and follows the rules. Well, except 1, but then again every governing body has to have it’s leader right? But then there is the outcast 0 and the untouchables, the negative numbers. OK…so maybe the numbers have their flaws too and might not be able to bring much equality to the alphabet.

Fuck it, maybe we should wipe them both out and try again for something more uniform.

Vegard Sverre Tveitan makes Varg Vikernes look like Charles Edward Coughlin

My radio silence can only be broken by the monumental task held before me…the choice of the greater of 2 evils.

While I actually know the answer I posit the question to you as well. Decide for your self which below is the true ruler of Hell and which one is the Other Guy From Whamm?

First up is the that venerable Cave Troll who was recently taken from this mortal coil by the only means necessary of killing it’s kind…fire and fucking lots of it.

The contender is actually nothing but Connecticut’s version of 50 Cent.

Between the two of them they have elicited long running reigns of terror and malfeasance under the guise of custodial aid to the worlds useless sacks of genetic material whose own existence seems to be nothing better than reproduction chambers.

With the demise of the Progenitor the Platinum One still pales under the Dark Energy of the Bipedal Whale, whose empire grows unchecked by the legions of light…actually in a cosmic slight of hand the legions seem to be among her greatest minions. Perhaps as prophesized the Singularity may be the harbinger of Apocalypse which would make IT the spawn of the Great Troll.

Damn the French have a deep and sinister plan in store for mandkind.
