I think that we're already reaching the point where the most important thing is not media storage capacity but the speed of filtering and accessing that information.
Originally posted by der schwarze RitterJust finished a new sci fi book by Vernor Vinge, a dude who really really knows computers, its called 'Rainbows End' about the near future, about 30 years from now where computer and storage technology reaches levels we would consider godlike now. We are still primitives in technology much as we like to consider ourselves incredibly smart.

Originally posted by der schwarze RitterMovies, holograms and libraries will need filtering too. Why wouldn't they?

It's the simple fact that information (be it media or not) is accumulating exponentially, so filtering and good search engines or equivalents are becoming progressively the choking point.

she's only helping me with my shoulder ligamnets.
The trouble is Stupid valley you judge people by your own low standards. Just because your therapist tries to mend your brain, don't expect we all have those problems.
Originally posted by petrosianpupilNo. The problem is that I hit on your secret weakness.... megalomania. And you are obsessed with revenge. Apparently, I'm not the first person in your life to discover your insanity. I'm just the one who is available for your irrational fixation and need for "revenge".

You continually Blab on about how great you are all the time and gets so uppity about the slightest criticism of the good old US of A. Me i don't make those claims, I just laugh at yours.
The megalomania secret, well you've been uncovering that for a while, but I still don't get it.
The revenge business, call me strange but when someone insults me I do tend to enjoy insulting them back. Real wierd huh?
Originally posted by petrosianpupilWhat is between you and me has nothing to do with any "issue" and you know it. We don't like each other. Period.

I have an instinctive dislike of egomaniacs. I "perceive" you as such. I may be wrong. There is no way of knowing without meeting you face to face.
Why do you think I made fun of you in the first place? I don't want you to sprain anything, so I'll tell you.
It was your notion that if we fight the terrorists we are playing into their hands.
I will just state the obvious. If we fight them, then... they win. If we don't fight them then they win.
That is just plain ..... STUPID dude.
And it was being called stupid that set you off. I recognized your irrational obsession with me from that point on. So don't pretend that this has anything to do with "issues".... except your issue with sanity.

I am not against fighting terrorists.
I am against fighting them the George Bush way. Its not a conventional war, you fight them with brains and on many levels.
Your way you admit you will still lose, yet you call me stupid.
I think irrationality is you strength.

This is where we got into it.... remember? What the hell are these brainy, unconventional methods? I implied that you had discovered "special secret methods" based on exactly this stupidity.
I asked you then, and I'll ask again... what are these "special" methods that you want to employ? Geez. We are waiting. The world depends on an answer and you are happy to deny us. That is downright "unsocial" and unkind. Why do you insist on holding these methods hostage? Share them.

Thank you putrid for that wonderful contribution to a bit of harmless and [b] FRIGGIN POINTLESS fun having. I'm sure that your obsession with me will wear off. Given time. In the meanwhile, I'll just have fun as more and more people come to understand megalomania and why when a parson has it, they obsess over being called out. And it gets worse ove ...[text shortened]... at is the point to the whole thing. Have a bit of fun and reveal the insane for what they are.[/b]
