| schestowitz | Well, Will, using skype to talk with your family, that's a real world thing that you cannot do with free software. Yes, there is software that does exactly what skype does... but what are the chances that your contacts are on GNU FreeCall? Are you seriously going to make every one of them go through the hastle of installing some obscure piece of software? | Apr 20 11:19 |
| schestowitz | Don't get me wrong. I am a staunch open source software advocate... because I believe in freedom. Part of that freedom is the freedom to use non-open source software. Any system that does not allow me to use any sort of software that I want to use based on the license is not MY system. It is one that has been restricted by pious zealots. I left Christianity behind at the age of 19, I don't need another religion. | Apr 20 11:19 |

| schestowitz | my body is f*ed up... there was the Mr. Fitness competition, so I hurt my shoulder (same injury as Mike's), then had hardships associated with excessive running. I've totally recovered; the neck thing was very minor and the knee just needs some rest from the running. I'll be crowned Mr. Fitness 2012 soon... | Apr 20 14:39 |
| schestowitz | I'm going to come back online at about 11 PM tonight, then do lots of blogging that's long overdue, after a good workout and sauna... I hardly find time for that anymore :./ | Apr 20 14:39 |

| schestowitz | not so much by the US government | Apr 20 18:28 |
| schestowitz | but by corporations | Apr 20 18:28 |
| schestowitz | which is worse | Apr 20 18:28 |
| schestowitz | and the media teaches them to be docile about it | Apr 20 18:29 |
| schestowitz | the "job creators" meme | Apr 20 18:29 |
| qu1j0t3 | colonised, yes. | Apr 20 18:34 |
| qu1j0t3 | TV. | Apr 20 18:34 |
| qu1j0t3 | oh well. | Apr 20 18:34 |
| schestowitz | "can't please everyone" :-) | Apr 20 18:36 |

| schestowitz | I think 80% of the money comes from about 0.001% | Apr 20 18:37 |
| schestowitz | so far... | Apr 20 18:37 |

| schestowitz | (22:58:55) Roy: EXACTLY! | Apr 20 23:00 |
| schestowitz | (22:59:08) Roy: That's why i say to people, but many cannot comprehend it | Apr 20 23:00 |
| schestowitz | (22:59:18) Roy: the TV teaches them that people are made happy when they purchase something | Apr 20 23:00 |
| schestowitz | (22:59:26) Roy: like "drink coke, get sex" | Apr 20 23:00 |
| schestowitz | (22:59:35) Roy: Or "buy nice car, have happy family" | Apr 20 23:00 |
| schestowitz | (22:59:57) Roy: PR/consumerism cultures have penetrated many lives, people now fail to understand why hard work doesn't bring them happiness | Apr 20 23:00 |
| schestowitz | 23:00 | Apr 20 23:00 |
| qu1j0t3 | but it's worse | Apr 20 23:04 |
| qu1j0t3 | originally the complaint was about consumerism | Apr 20 23:04 |
| qu1j0t3 | but it's clearer these days that they are actually buying war and death and false narratives as well | Apr 20 23:05 |
| qu1j0t3 | they're now buying torture, and cluster bombs, and dead palestinians, and drones, and so on-- all from the convenience of their couch | Apr 20 23:05 |
| qu1j0t3 | not to mention deforestation -- Amazon on sale! | Apr 20 23:05 |
| qu1j0t3 | just press the buttons on the remote to destroy the planet | Apr 20 23:05 |

| qu1j0t3 | sure beats the agony of thinking | Apr 20 23:06 |
| schestowitz | (23:02:29) Roy: some certain material things can be symbolic of something, like jewllery that we wear for life and helps remind us of particular moments... like some old objects we got from our grandparents and has sentimental value | Apr 20 23:07 |
| schestowitz | (23:04:34) Roy: You know the feeling when your famiyl wears something you bought them, like a shirt? | Apr 20 23:07 |
| schestowitz | (23:06:40) Roy: the "Value" per se if what we consider it to be worth. In a land of LOTS of diamonds, they are of no value. If we can just BUY something our grandma WORE, then that too would be replaceable. Scarcity defines the real value of stuff, and some stuff is so scarce that it's irreplacable. The loss of a person too can be like that, because each person is unique. | Apr 20 23:07 |
| schestowitz | qu1j0t3: planet Earth is scarce | Apr 20 23:07 |
| schestowitz | only one such planet that we know | Apr 20 23:07 |
| schestowitz | but we look a micro-level, only what's ON it | Apr 20 23:08 |

| qu1j0t3 | one of those paradoxes that isn't obvious from the TV | Apr 20 23:19 |
| schestowitz | I would say exploit | Apr 20 23:22 |
| schestowitz | the value of a billion dollars is high | Apr 20 23:22 |
| schestowitz | too high for one person to yield | Apr 20 23:22 |
| schestowitz | those who are super rich are super a exploiting the labour force of others | Apr 20 23:22 |
