*FurnaceBoy is curious how this got placed in the G&M | Aug 29 05:54 | |
FurnaceBoy | in the guise of a science column | Aug 29 05:54 |
FurnaceBoy | while 'tech' columns interview M$ researchers | Aug 29 05:54 |
FurnaceBoy | and rabbit on about the latest windows nonsense | Aug 29 05:54 |
FurnaceBoy | as if it's relevant to any human activity | Aug 29 05:54 |
FurnaceBoy | except criminology | Aug 29 05:55 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: I've heard this 'but without GMO billions will starve' before. it's the 'consensus version'. SCIENCE WILL SAVE US ALL and WAR WILL BRING US PEACE. | Aug 29 05:56 |
schestowitz | "If you oppose Monsanto, kids will die from hunger" | Aug 29 05:56 |

schestowitz | Pesticides and fetilisers cost oil (fossil fuel to make) and they unleash poisons into circulation | Aug 29 05:57 |
FurnaceBoy | you're not supportign the US military, you're killing women | Aug 29 05:57 |
FurnaceBoy | I read it in TIME! | Aug 29 05:57 |
FurnaceBoy | you're using open source -- you're undermining the only engine of innovation, which is American capitalism | Aug 29 05:58 |
schestowitz | People lose their nose when bombs fall, too | Aug 29 05:58 |
FurnaceBoy | a dozen tech bloggers can't be wrong. | Aug 29 05:58 |

FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: Starship Troopers | Aug 29 06:04 |
schestowitz | They do need help | Aug 29 06:06 |
schestowitz | I just don't think the war improves things for either side | Aug 29 06:06 |
schestowitz | The "war industry" though has reasons to build more bombs to replace "used" ones | Aug 29 06:06 |
schestowitz | Wherever there's flesh there's still market for the 'defence' industry | Aug 29 06:07 |
schestowitz | Capitalism to the extreme is a great thing | Aug 29 06:07 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: the problem was nailed by that last column i linked | Aug 29 06:08 |
schestowitz | If you're Raytheon or Haliburton or Rafael/Elbit, then your goal is to perpetuate war.. for shareholder :-) | Aug 29 06:08 |
schestowitz | Marketing too | Aug 29 06:08 |
schestowitz | Rewards for deception | Aug 29 06:09 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: isolation from reality.. it happens on the other side of the globe. this has been a problem for a long time now, it was the principal issue with vietnam. the only way to attack this problem is by leaking and impeccable tradecraft | Aug 29 06:09 |
schestowitz | UK has ASA | Aug 29 06:09 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: Cambodia bombing is archetypal. | Aug 29 06:09 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: are you familiar with that ? | Aug 29 06:09 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: now the whole war is run along those lines | Aug 29 06:09 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: it was American 'innovation' | Aug 29 06:09 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: how to have a war and hide it from the public | Aug 29 06:10 |
FurnaceBoy | yet why are we even using the word 'war' | Aug 29 06:10 |
FurnaceBoy | the word itself is misdirective, like 'insurgent' | Aug 29 06:10 |
schestowitz | [06:09] <FurnaceBoy> schestowitz: are you familiar with that ? | Aug 29 06:12 |
schestowitz | Year Zero? | Aug 29 06:12 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: the book I read was Hersh, "The Price of Power: Kissinger in the Nixon White House" | Aug 29 06:12 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: it's an extraordinary tale. But tell the kids today, they won't believe you. | Aug 29 06:12 |
schestowitz | Wasn't Kissinger also behind Bilderberg? | Aug 29 06:13 |
schestowitz | I once saw this guy in CNN mentioning that | Aug 29 06:13 |
schestowitz | Not a good legacy to have | Aug 29 06:13 |
FurnaceBoy | Kissinger's legacy is horrendous. | Aug 29 06:13 |
schestowitz | Peace Nobel price winner... is Bliar next? | Aug 29 06:13 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: how many times can satire be killed and buried | Aug 29 06:14 |
schestowitz | I don't know why people respect him even... he sounds retarded too | Aug 29 06:14 |
FurnaceBoy | (Tom Lehrer) http://www.avclub.com/articles/tom-lehrer,13660/ | Aug 29 06:14 |
schestowitz | Like a Ben Stein, only with more power in his hands (war equipment) | Aug 29 06:14 |
TechrightsBot | Title: Tom Lehrer | Interview | The A.V. Club .::. Size~: 79.36 KB | Aug 29 06:14 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: Kissinger is a murderer, liar, thief. | Aug 29 06:15 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: mass murderer | Aug 29 06:15 |
schestowitz | "The Onion: I'd long heard that you stopped performing as a form of protest, because Henry Kissinger won the Nobel Peace Prize. " | Aug 29 06:15 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: he should be tried; and many have been hanged for much less. | Aug 29 06:15 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: correct. the famous quote is, "When Kissinger won the Nobel peace prize, satire became obsolete" | Aug 29 06:16 |
FurnaceBoy | (paraphrased) | Aug 29 06:16 |
schestowitz | "Tom Lehrer: I don't know how that got started. I've said that political satire became obsolete when Henry Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Prize. For one thing, I quit long before that happened, so historically it doesn't make any sense. I've heard that quoted back to me, but I've also heard it quoted that I was dead, so there you are. You can't believe anything you read. That was just an off-hand remark somebody picked up, and now | Aug 29 06:16 |
schestowitz | it's been quoted and quoted, and therefore misquoted. I've heard that I stopped because Richard Nixon was elected, or because I got put away in an insane asylum, or whatever." | Aug 29 06:16 |
FurnaceBoy | However, we have a new contender: Obama | Aug 29 06:16 |
schestowitz | Not yet | Aug 29 06:16 |
schestowitz | He doesn't create the wars | Aug 29 06:16 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: He's on the team that does. | Aug 29 06:16 |
schestowitz | He just keeps existing ones going (the neocons') | Aug 29 06:17 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: I don't see a substantive distinction here. | Aug 29 06:17 |
schestowitz | Also, Kissinger got his prize /after/ crimes against humanity | Aug 29 06:17 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: he was hired to keep them going. | Aug 29 06:17 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: where does a peace prize fit in, except to hide the truth? | Aug 29 06:17 |
schestowitz | Put yourself in his shoes though | Aug 29 06:17 |
FurnaceBoy | where does a president fit in, except to hide the truth. | Aug 29 06:18 |
schestowitz | He doesn't mean to harm | Aug 29 06:18 |
FurnaceBoy | or a cable tv network. | Aug 29 06:18 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: I cannot agree. | Aug 29 06:18 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: he knows the bargain perfectly | Aug 29 06:18 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: you don't reach that post without endorsing the program with every fibre | Aug 29 06:18 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: and this is why, not satire, but elections are obsolete | Aug 29 06:19 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: he is expanding the wars to new fronts | Aug 29 06:19 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: with the same old bogus rationalisations | Aug 29 06:20 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: shooting the messengers | Aug 29 06:21 |
schestowitz | [06:19] <FurnaceBoy> schestowitz: he is expanding the wars to new fronts | Aug 29 06:22 |
schestowitz | You're bad for the economy. | Aug 29 06:22 |
schestowitz | Some countries need war | Aug 29 06:22 |
FurnaceBoy | I'm terrible for the economy. I don't buy a new car every 3 years. | Aug 29 06:22 |
schestowitz | The US and Israel, for example, rely on military exports | Aug 29 06:22 |
FurnaceBoy | UK, France, Germany | Aug 29 06:22 |
schestowitz | Them too | Aug 29 06:23 |
FurnaceBoy | to a lesser degree | Aug 29 06:23 |
schestowitz | It's the big business | Aug 29 06:23 |
FurnaceBoy | Russia | Aug 29 06:23 |
schestowitz | THe other is energy | Aug 29 06:23 |
FurnaceBoy | yes. | Aug 29 06:23 |
schestowitz | IT is small | Aug 29 06:23 |
FurnaceBoy | i know. | Aug 29 06:23 |
FurnaceBoy | and it's gota go. | Aug 29 06:23 |
schestowitz | Relatively | Aug 29 06:23 |
FurnaceBoy | humanity cannot afford this 'business'. | Aug 29 06:23 |
FurnaceBoy | that's the bottom line. | Aug 29 06:23 |
schestowitz | us geeks think that a 350,000-employee strong IBM is big | Aug 29 06:23 |
FurnaceBoy | I used to scare myself by estimating how much energy is wasted by the military. | Aug 29 06:24 |
schestowitz | [06:23] <FurnaceBoy> humanity cannot afford this 'business'. | Aug 29 06:24 |
schestowitz | It can | Aug 29 06:24 |
FurnaceBoy | not to mention materiel, resources | Aug 29 06:24 |
schestowitz | It helps reduce and starve populations | Aug 29 06:24 |
schestowitz | Sad fact | Aug 29 06:24 |
schestowitz | It give Iraqis reason to have less children | Aug 29 06:24 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: I'm not sure that is true. | Aug 29 06:24 |
schestowitz | They can't afford them | Aug 29 06:24 |
schestowitz | also birth defects from radiation now | Aug 29 06:25 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: birth rate in USA declined, due to recession. | Aug 29 06:25 |
schestowitz | [06:24] <FurnaceBoy> not to mention materiel, resources | Aug 29 06:25 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: but you wouldn't want your kid born there anyway. they could be deported. | Aug 29 06:25 |
schestowitz | We'll dig deeper, will last a while | Aug 29 06:25 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: i know | Aug 29 06:25 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: 'a while' | Aug 29 06:25 |
schestowitz | Then let the Chines {cynical} dig up the landfills | Aug 29 06:25 |
schestowitz | *nese | Aug 29 06:25 |
schestowitz | FurnaceBoy: 'a while'<my lifetime | Aug 29 06:26 |
schestowitz | We already run out of metal | Aug 29 06:26 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: yes, and that's what's 'new'. | Aug 29 06:26 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: that's the 'news' | Aug 29 06:26 |
schestowitz | They're jammed in some obsolete hardware and maybe landfills | Aug 29 06:26 |
FurnaceBoy | of course we ran out of metal. | Aug 29 06:26 |
schestowitz | metal/metals/ | Aug 29 06:26 |
FurnaceBoy | i remember prediccting that when i was about 4 years old. | Aug 29 06:27 |
FurnaceBoy | it was obvious | Aug 29 06:27 |
schestowitz | FurnaceBoy: I meant plural, referring to specific ones | Aug 29 06:27 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: I know | Aug 29 06:27 |
FurnaceBoy | but the generalisation works just as well. | Aug 29 06:27 |
FurnaceBoy | same process | Aug 29 06:27 |
schestowitz | The minerals used to make the glossy phone display causes deadly conflicts in Africa | Aug 29 06:27 |
FurnaceBoy | extractive | Aug 29 06:27 |
schestowitz | But what do we care? | Aug 29 06:27 |
schestowitz | We just want the shinnnnnnnnnnny | Aug 29 06:27 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: it's too far away | Aug 29 06:27 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: it's practically another country anyway | Aug 29 06:27 |
schestowitz | Another race | Aug 29 06:28 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: besides, if they were as good as americans, they'd live like americans, where the roads are paved with gold | Aug 29 06:28 |
schestowitz | Gold too | Aug 29 06:28 |
schestowitz | You know where it comes from | Aug 29 06:28 |
schestowitz | Same place | Aug 29 06:28 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: so clearly they don't deserve anything better, or they'd have it. | Aug 29 06:28 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: remember, Palinism: God put it here for US. | Aug 29 06:28 |
schestowitz | We have exhausted it in the West | Aug 29 06:28 |
schestowitz | We wear it on our finger | Aug 29 06:28 |
schestowitz | Status symbol | Aug 29 06:28 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: God decrees that we shall take , take, take | Aug 29 06:29 |
schestowitz | And them send AK47s to COngo to get some more to be used as conductors | Aug 29 06:29 |
schestowitz | FurnaceBoy: no | Aug 29 06:29 |
schestowitz | We give, give , give too | Aug 29 06:29 |
schestowitz | We send them ewaste back | Aug 29 06:29 |
schestowitz | It has those pesky toxins | Aug 29 06:30 |
schestowitz | In China ewaste gets smashed so these matrials flow down to the rivers | Aug 29 06:30 |
schestowitz | I don't know if Africa just buries them | Aug 29 06:30 |
schestowitz | I don't think they have the equipment to extract the pertinent metals | Aug 29 06:31 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: Trafigura | Aug 29 06:31 |
schestowitz | SheeSH! | Aug 29 06:31 |
schestowitz | Take that MSG down | Aug 29 06:31 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: and it's amazing to think that Kissinger's crimes at 1,000,000 x Trafigura in scale. | Aug 29 06:31 |
schestowitz | Trafigura does not exist | Aug 29 06:31 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: who WOULD bring a child into this world? | Aug 29 06:31 |
FurnaceBoy | only a lunatic | Aug 29 06:31 |
schestowitz | No | Aug 29 06:31 |
schestowitz | People who can afford them | Aug 29 06:32 |
FurnaceBoy | who can afford to insulate themselves from reality | Aug 29 06:32 |
schestowitz | Anyway, it doesn't matter | Aug 29 06:32 |
FurnaceBoy | the bourgeois | Aug 29 06:32 |
schestowitz | People will reproduce where they can make enough bread/rice | Aug 29 06:32 |
schestowitz | Monsanto will help them | Aug 29 06:32 |
FurnaceBoy | petri dish? | Aug 29 06:32 |
schestowitz | Increasing yield | Aug 29 06:32 |
schestowitz | To only make more births | Aug 29 06:32 |
schestowitz | That's the trouble in Africa | Aug 29 06:32 |
FurnaceBoy | right. like building roads to fix traffic. | Aug 29 06:32 |
schestowitz | More food -> more births | Aug 29 06:32 |
schestowitz | But... | Aug 29 06:33 |
FurnaceBoy | interesting. in Africa food makes babies, in USA it makes fatties. | Aug 29 06:33 |
schestowitz | More seeds -> more dividend for Monsanto's shareholders | Aug 29 06:33 |
schestowitz | We need a new name for Monsanto | Aug 29 06:33 |
schestowitz | I don't like the name | Aug 29 06:33 |
schestowitz | Innocent like "santa" | Aug 29 06:33 |
schestowitz | I bet they already have some 'pet' names | Aug 29 06:33 |
FurnaceBoy | Novartis | Aug 29 06:33 |
FurnaceBoy | Genera | Aug 29 06:33 |
schestowitz | Them too | Aug 29 06:33 |
schestowitz | Gates-connected | Aug 29 06:33 |
FurnaceBoy | Venter's in the clique | Aug 29 06:34 |
schestowitz | And Myhrvold IIRC | Aug 29 06:34 |
schestowitz | Not sure about the latter, but he does pharma patents too | Aug 29 06:34 |
FurnaceBoy | the rich are preoccupied with genetic material | Aug 29 06:34 |
FurnaceBoy | immortality | Aug 29 06:34 |
FurnaceBoy | while killing the rest | Aug 29 06:35 |
FurnaceBoy | E Pluribus Unum | Aug 29 06:35 |
FurnaceBoy | yeah, right | Aug 29 06:35 |
schestowitz | I guess... | Aug 29 06:36 |
schestowitz | Jobs got another person's bodyparts | Aug 29 06:36 |
FurnaceBoy | somebody who didn't matter | Aug 29 06:36 |
FurnaceBoy | welp. nite. | Aug 29 06:37 |
schestowitz | OK | Aug 29 06:37 |
schestowitz | Well, smartest people I know were not wealthy | Aug 29 06:37 |
schestowitz | Some had no kids | Aug 29 06:38 |
schestowitz | Shame they don't run the strong countries | Aug 29 06:38 |
schestowitz | They need to have family+religion to do that | Aug 29 06:38 |
schestowitz | Good people do bad things sometimes | Aug 29 06:38 |
schestowitz | It take religion/dogma to justify these things sometimes | Aug 29 06:38 |
FurnaceBoy | God people do bad things | Aug 29 06:38 |
schestowitz | God :-) | Aug 29 06:39 |
schestowitz | "God hates fags" | Aug 29 06:39 |
FurnaceBoy | yeah but there's more fags than Gods | Aug 29 06:39 |
schestowitz | Nice PR for the chuch | Aug 29 06:39 |
schestowitz | "God hates" | Aug 29 06:39 |
schestowitz | I agree | Aug 29 06:39 |
FurnaceBoy | so my money's on the fags | Aug 29 06:39 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: God wants chain stores | Aug 29 06:39 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: What God wants, God gets. --Roger Waters | Aug 29 06:39 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: God wants jihad! | Aug 29 06:40 |
schestowitz | God = self-appointed clergymen | Aug 29 06:40 |
FurnaceBoy | yes. | Aug 29 06:40 |
schestowitz | "SUpport me on his behalf" | Aug 29 06:40 |

FurnaceBoy | the real clergy | Aug 29 06:40 |
FurnaceBoy | designing new ways of killing God's children | Aug 29 06:40 |
FurnaceBoy | previously, on Battlefield Earth, the Inquisition, designing ways of torturing them; a game that never gets old | Aug 29 06:41 |
FurnaceBoy | the trick is to find religious justification | Aug 29 06:41 |
FurnaceBoy | but then old L. Ron beat even that -- invent a religion. | Aug 29 06:41 |
FurnaceBoy | i suppose it's not far off inventing consensus. | Aug 29 06:42 |
FurnaceBoy | Pope Rupert. | Aug 29 06:42 |
