Technology vs. the economic crisis

libervisco — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 13:36:27 +0200

This is something I continue to be genuinely interested in. The credit fiasco that happened in USA and infected the rest of the world, bringing down some of the most powerful and oldest banks in US and some big banks in Europe too, regardless and perhaps even partly because of the just passed bail out in US and other bail outs in Europe, is according to many leading the world towards a global deep recession which some compare even to the Great Depression that started in 1929.

Is it hard to record videos on sites directly? This question may arise to site owners' who want their users to create and post their videos on sites directly. It's a much easier task. One can do it easily using a webcam and microphone, along with a QuickCam - an online web cam recorder.

Nowadays millions of people have turned to social networking sites in hope of building their visibility, expanding their professional network, maintaining a healthy relationship with others and so on. A few years ago, teenagers were the majority of social network users. In the past year, some of the social networking sites have seen a steady growth of users who are over 30.

Against net neutrality

libervisco — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 17:03:49 +0200

Considering that I am a voluntaryist (or for the newbies to the term; a left libertarian, or anarcho-capitalist) I am by default against any and all legislation. Still it's good to offer arguments behind why is a particular legislation bad and I've found an article which explains why would the net neutrality regulation be bad:

The Great Firewall of Net Neutrality.

Thoughts on Olympics in China?

I suppose you might be one of the 4 billion people who have supposedly watched the opening ceremony of Olympics in Bejing so there's a good chance there's no need for me to introduce you to what it is.

Does technology really matter?

I still define liberty as a state of being in which you're free to do "whatever floats your boat as long as it doesn't sink mine". From my perspective this reflects non-aggression or non-coercion and obviously requires tolerance. It is predicated on the belief that even while you believe others to be wrong about their beliefs and their acts to be evil, you would not interfere by force if they don't initiate force on you or anyone else.

Service Nation?

libervisco — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 06:52:46 +0200

Anyone heard of a project called Service Nation?

Apparently they're trying to compell everyone in United States to do public service on September 27th 2008, in a nutshell. They, of course, speak of stuff like unity, being the change and all the other warm and fuzzy things. As it usually happens this, in fact quite heinous project, is being clothed into all of the good buzz words and slogans they can think of.

V for Vendetta

Has anyone here watched this movie called "V for Vendetta"? What did you think of it?

I did recently and it's gotta be one of the best movies I've ever watched. I might have not said something like some months ago, but from where I stand today the movie is a perfect fit, might even call it positively life changing and incredibly inspiring.
