What's Wrong With the World by GK Chesterton

Tags:

I am required to read this book for a European history class. It is old, published in 1910, so it is in the public domain and on Wikisource. I found Chapter 1.6 relevant to this site, in particular the last paragraph:

Apple vs. Psystar

Tags:

This news title got me a little curious about the whole topic espoused by this lawsuit: Psystar claims Apple has invalid Mac OS X copyright.

I have no idea whether Psystar is right here or not, nor does that even matter to me. I just realize that if Psystar was to anyhow successfully defend against this lawsuit it would set a rather interesting precedent.

Mind reading tech breakthrough

Tags:

"Asking 'shall we watch a film?' could soon be replaced by 'shall we watch a dream?'" says a RegHardware article about World's first 'thought images' seen on screen.

Japanese scientists apparently managed to read a mind and visualize some of its content, in this case letters previously shown on the screen to test subjects.

Open Stock Market

Tags:

Is a free and open stock market a possibility? I am curious to know what all of you think about a stock market system based on complete openness in terms of financial reporting and the ability of any person to become an investor. All transactions must be open and reported. All gains and losses must be public knowledge. What legal restrictions would stand in the way of a non-profit company created to accomplish this task?

Folding, anyone?

Tags:

Well, I was thinking of giving my often lazy machine a workout by folding. Has anyone else tried it out before? Should there be a Libervis folding team? Discuss.

Libervis IRC channel

Tags:

Even when Libervis.com is rather quiet, our chatroom is pretty lively and active often with interesting discussions about freedom and related issues. All of us who participate are technology enthusiasts, mostly users of GNU/Linux operating system, but not discriminatory towards anyone else.

I would like to invite anyone who may be stumbling on this site to join us. Who knows, it may be one of the better things you've done because once you get to know us you might actually want to stick around.

So, here is where you can find us:

Machinima

Tags:

One of the new things I became interested in lately are machinima, or movies made within video games. I am in fact building a site that is to allow linking, voting and reviewing machinima movies, recognizing it as a growing phenomenon and an interesting new (at least from the perspective of the mainstream) media of cultural expression.

Technology vs. the economic crisis

Tags:

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.

Against net neutrality

Tags:

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.
