I don't feel like html today for you.

The problem is that we don't know how to make friendly AI. As in at some point, Artificial Intelligences will be able to beat humans at any task, at which point, how do you make sure that they don't destroy humanity (possibly through indifference). Even if you don't care about humanity, how do you make sure they do something interesting with the universe?

One of the biggest changes in GIMPShop was the single window mode that docked the toolbox into the image window, GIMP 2.8 has such a feature as standard(if it's not default it's in the window menu, i think), the other things such as photoshop equivalent bindings used to be available in the form of ps-menurc, oh, it's still around http://epierce.freeshell.org/gimp/gimp_ps.php.
All of the differences that actually matter between PS and GIMP are of course completely unaddressed by GIMPshop and other similar hacks, gimp doesn't support all manner of layer modes and operations that are used extensively in photoshop, if you're going to adapt to going without such things then surely you can learn some keybindings.

In the book Religion Explained by Pascal Boyer, Boyer states that humans have large ontological categories that we group stu into. These categories deal with the very nature of being. Ontological categories include Animal, Person, Tool (or artifact), Natural object, and Plant.[Religion Explained, pg 78] Humans have default attributes that we assume that an item in a given category has. So for example, if we are told that something is an animal, we know that it started out small, will grow bigger, and will eventually die. Religious beliefs tend to involve information that is counterintuitive to the category involved.[Religion Explained, pg 65] For example ghosts are in the category of people, but have the counterintuitive physical property of being able to pass through walls. Boyer lists the following possibilities for tools: “Tools and other artifacts can be represented as having biological properties (some statues bleed) or psychological ones (they hear what you say).”[Religion Explained, pg 78] wrote Boyer.

Artifacts don’t think, and artifacts do what they are made to do. A Carburetor is an artifact, and carburetors don’t think, and they will keep mixing gasoline with air unless they break. I believe that in the most likely course of events, there will soon be computers that are smarter than humans and they will not obey us. Thinking artifacts that don’t obey humans t Pascal Boyer’s denition of a religious-like concept. I believe that it is unusually hard to think critically about thinking artifacts because of how tied-in with religion the concepts are.

will I finally be able to cut & paste across applications? *ducks*

If you're referring to some imagined deficiency of the GNU/Linux operating environment, then explain how I just copied and pasted your comment from Firefox to Leafpad, composed the reply in Leafpad, and copied and pasted it back to Firefox, all on Xubuntu 12.04. Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V work just as easily to move text around between applications in GNU/Linux as in Windows.

Seriously though, if this is going anywhere near wine, we'd have the best of three worlds on one platform.

Cue Apple's lawyers scrambling to find a way around the ruling of API uncopyrightability in Oracle v. Google.

The whole idea seems quite ridiculous.
The OS's focus is isolating applications because they may have security issues. That's just a nasty workaround, applications with issues need to be fixed, and that's the end of it. You can try a millon different thing, but coding secure applications will always work.
It will always have less overhead as well, since it's not an aditional VM (how much memory does this use up in order to run, say, leafpad?
Have we really reached a point were bad software is so commonly accepted that we tailor OSs so it's no longer a problem?

I would like to suggest, that if Mozilla implements H.264, Mozilla should also implement free codecs that Safari or Internet Explorer implement. This example of mine only uses a royalty free codec, works in OSX Safari, but does not work in Firefox: http://jjc.freeshell.org/turning_pages.html

It uses Motion JPEG video with uncompressed PCM audio in an AVI container. Admittedly, MJPEG with PCM uses something like a factor of 40 times more bandwidth than H.264, so it is completely impractical for a site like Wikipedia or Youtube (MJPEG is however currently used, for example in Axis Network Cameras). Another possibility (which would need to be verified by lawyers) might be MPEG-1 Video with layer II audio which might be royalty free and is also supported by Safari.

In short, if Mozilla is going to support patent encumbered formats, they should also support royalty free formats that are supported by other browers.

Well, not really. The ones you listed are. Decwars/Megawars was my favorite game, see: http://hsnewman.freeshell.org/decwar.htm and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decwar to learn about this historic game. It's not available on the web. I'm rewriting a similar game, called routerwars. See: http://routerwar.com/

Opening the source has several advantages:
* if you have no money, you need models for free, and nobody will give you models for free if you aren't willing to give the code for free
* it will allow you to use code repositories you otherwise couldn't or would have to pay for, such as launchpad, or savannah, or cvsdude. Your current solution for distributing programs isn't working. Error. The file could not be found.

How well does OpenOffice.org do this?

OpenOffice doesn't do TeX-style markup, since the sole reason for OpenOffice existing is to feel familiar for users of Microsoft Office (pre 2007), and since Word doesn't do it (yet) then neither can OOo.

If you don't care about Microsoft Office then you're free to use anything. I use LyX ( http://www.lyx.org/ ), a GUI word processor which outputs to TeX, when I'm doing large projects or anything scientific. I use Abiword ( http://www.abisource.com/ ) for creating quick throwaway documents, and I use leafpad (GUI, http://tarot.freeshell.org/leafpad ) and Nano (commandline, http://www.nano-editor.org/ ) for writing down anything that doesn't need any formatting.

But IBM never acquired XyWrite, did they? Although, IIRC, they screwed XyQuest and left them holding the bag when IBM bailed. Can I find a citation? [ ... on hold music here ... ] Here 'tis: http://yesss.freeshell.org/x/_xywhat.htm

Too bad - I was a XyWrite fan.

Wow this has to be the most IDIOTIC comment I've ever seen. First off, piss does NOT appear anywhere in the Bible

My Strongs' concordance shows piss in fact is in the bible. And pisseth. But don't let the facts get in your way of defending a stupid fairy-tale religion.

BTW - Have you even read the whole bible? Did you try looking? Some quotes: http://revjim.freeshell.org/piss.html

Missing is my favourite - 1 Kings 21:21 (favourite because a pastor asked everyone to turn to it and read out loud, I quickly said "I think you mean 2 Kings 21:21, he said No, 1 Kings 21:21 ... much hilarity to hear kids reading "dirty words in church" first thing on a Sunday morning). There are 7 references in all.

Also, don't use the Bible when you've obviously never taken the time to read or understand what it's saying. It is better for people to think you are whole than for you to open your mouth and remove all doubt. How about try to live by that from now on.

... coming from some right-wing religious nutjob who, unlike me, has obviously never read the whole bible ... now if you want another biblical reference, your uninformed and provably wrong comments makes you sound like the jawbone of an ass. "Quiet, Donkey!"

I don't have one. However, at the linux users group I attend ( http://ale.freeshell.org/ ), a group of people who got them via one of the group purchase agreements came to last night's meeting. I was pretty impressed.

It does cost $300 or $400 depending on what model you get, and then you have to get one of the cellular services that works on a sim chip thing.

At least one of the guys at the linux meeting was using it as his daily phone. However he also said he was putting up with various quirks and working around them, that "normal people" might not be able to deal with. One person showed me the phone running X with xfce, but the others were using a qt interface that didn't use X, if I understood them correctly.

But, if you are a developer and having problems with the openness of your phones, this is the way to go. Even the hardware and plastic designs are open source.

But the article implies that one by product of his process is fertilizer. It emphasizes the cleaniness and clarity of the fuel. I think what the article is trying to imply, although it and the company's web site are extremely non-technical and informationless, is that the carbon is extracted from the feedstock to make fuel, and the "contaminants" of phosphorous, nitrogen, and minerals, are pulled out and labeled "fertilizer". Because of emissions issues it is unlikely that a fuel with nitrogen and phosphorous compounds in it could be widely used.

Although there is no technical information in the article, the picture shows merely agricultural feed hoppers and a table of buckets and pans. No picture of a vessel that could cook waste at around 500 psi and 500 degrees F is shown, and that is roughly the temperatures and pressures needed for those kinds of reactions. I'd be more interested in seeing that apparatus. You can look at the wikipediate articles on Thermal Polymerization and the Fischer-Tropsch process to confirm this.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_depolymerization
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fischer-Tropsch

I collected some notes on various books and articles I read, because I was thinking of attempting some small scale way of powering an internal combustion engine:

http://rgr.freeshell.org/woodgas/

Wesnoth has had these for long:
http://zapicm.freeshell.org/stable/Giant_Scorpion.html

From what it sounded to me, they were using the direction of the spin of the electrons to hold the information. There are only two directions, so that is why you only get binary. I suppose if you found a way to read the spin of each individual electron, you'd be able to store mulitple bits per atom. And yes, this is new (certainly for computers), as currently there are two types of RAM used most of the time: SRAM and DRAM.

SRAM uses only transistors to store the data. This takes several components, so it is very big and expensive, but also very fast. DRAM uses a capacitor to store the data and a transistor to select it. This only requires two components, but accessing the capacitor is slower and the capacitor slowly loses the charge, so it has to be refreshed within a certain amount of time, or the data it holds will be lost. Both of those require components which at minimum will be several atoms big, so creating a memory cell the size of an atom will most certainly reduce the size of RAM.

There is also trinary systems. This is probably what you where trying to get at. I have heard of RAM based on trinary, but I don't know if it is in use yet. I don't think it would work here as there are only two directions the electron spins. The trinary RAM I think is based on having the capacitor with either a positive voltage, negative voltage or no voltage across it. That is what gives the three possible states. With a capacitor, you could have more, but you'd have to use analog style circuits and probably higher refresh rates, which would mean higher failure rates and other problems.

That is a very simple explanation from what I know, and technically there are other types of RAM, but hopefully it gave you an idea what is going on.

So I've built two full sized machines, and I've sold both of them...they just take up a lot of space that the significant other isn't always crazy about (even if it's in the garage). The solution is to build just the control panel, and put all the guts inside. Here are a couple of pics...the trackball is all wired in, the right and left mouse buttons work, there's an expansion port (and 4x USB hub for controllers) on the side (hookup a second one for 4 player games ;), RCA, S-Video, ethernet, wifi, etc. It's the only way to go...hehe, too bad I'm never satisfied, now I'm planning to sell this one and build an even smaller one, probably half-inch stock to cut down the weight and so forth. Good times.

I think the plant described in the article doesn't have to produce ethanol. It makes synthesis gas which can be "upgraded" all the way to gasoline or diesel as long as you put in the energy. why stop at ethanol which has a lower value ? They are probably just trying to ride the ethanol hype wave, which is focused on yeast made ethanol (for now) and the "cellulostic ethanol" which is really supposed to mean a low-energy enzyme based process, not a high energy gasification process.

I like your point about the cheapest way to get alcohol being from oil or natural gas. I noted several years ago that news stories appeared indicating that much of the cheap vodka on the market in Russia comes from oil refineries, not wheat or potato fields. Even longer ago, there was once a scandal in France relating to whether cognac was being produced from agricultural output or whether there was "cheating" going on; the agricultural lobby carbon-dated cognac on the market, and showed by the isotope ratios that if it was all from agricultural output it would have to be thousands of years old. Of course manufactures were violating France's farm-protectionist "food purity" laws and using oil-derived alcohol.

You say you support hemp as a source. If it were really economically viable, wouldn't the big plants in Russia (where any law can be broken) Europe (where hemp is legal) be "cheating" in their alcohol and energy production by buying cheap hemp ?

One factor in favor of biomass over coal as a source of feed for a gasification / synthetic fuel production is that the removal of polluting sulphur from the coal, usually post-gasification, consumes energy and is complecated. I have been doing a bit of reading on the subject.

You mention the Fischer-Tropsch. If surphur is present in the coal feed, you will have hydrogen sulphide in the resulting hydrocarbons from Fischer-Tropsch.

I think it would be interesting to build a small plant that heated the carbon feed with microwaves, and fed in H2 separated electrolytically instead of by burning some of the carbon. You might be able to make a small stationary plant, that could be feed from intermittent power from a windmill. It would operate robotically as long as it's feed hopper was full and it could get water. If something like that were placed actually in the fields, then the ash or clinkers could easily be re-spread on the ground. I suspect it would only be viable in agricultural areas so remote that it is expensive to transport fuel to them and product to the market.

And that leads to some observations about your objection to starch and yeast derived alcohol. Farmers have traditional produced such alcohol as a way of "concentrating" their agricultural output for easy transportation, which is one reason why that production is traditional in the mountain areas of the south. But the current tax-break-subsidized boom in ethanol is not from small tubs and stills on the farms themselves, it is directed towards larger corporate stills that operate in town, still requiring some transportation of the bulky feed. I believe it is unlikely the economies of scale of a whiskey still pay for the transportation. The United States maintains its old laws that tax a distilled alcohol product from the minute it is produced, unless you pay a tax bond that is available only to the big producers, thus keeping small independents out of the business. One more reason not to put that tank-rusting ethanol crap in your vehicle.

If you are interested in the chemistry and thermodynamics behind gasification you should obtain and read "Synthetic Fuels" by Ronald F. Probstein and R. Edwin Hicks, published by Dover (1982, 1990, 2006), ISBN 0-486-44977-7. The first portion of it deals with gasification. The later parts of it deal with taking the "synthesis gas" and forming it into bigger molecules of methane or even liquid fuels. The amount of energy consumed, and the heats and presures and sometimes expensive catalysts, are fairly depressing to the backyard hobbiest.

However, it might be possible to build something that gasifies waste into hydorgen and steam and carbon dioxide, which would then be burned in an engine. A recent slashdot article about a gasification procedure that uses microwaves seems hopeful, because if you gasified in the presense of steam with no oxygen you might have less carbon monoxide. Usually, oxygen has to be present because a portion of the waste is burnt in the same chamber as the gasification occurs, to provide the heat needed.

Of course, playing around with a microwave magnetron has it's own dangers as well.

I believe it is possible to build an apparatus about the size of two shipping pallets and 6 feet high that would take in household garbage and yard waste and produce a considerable amount of electricity. Whether it would be economical, except in places where grid electricity is not available, is a different matter. Having it produce a liquid fuel suitable for storage and use in an internal combustion engine seems like a big leap, but that's what I would like to aim for.

My guess is that you do not use outlining as a tool for organizing thoughts, papers, presentations.

Yes, one can use bullets and numbering to make a traditional manual outline, but it is the buttons to promote/demote paragraphs (and selections of paragraphs) within the outline as well as move selections forwards and backwards (up and down) within the greater text that make the feature quite useful. One can also hide (or display) the outline characters within the finished text.

A second good use of this feature (also missing from OOo) is that within MS Office one can create an outline in Word and import it directly into PowerPoint - presto! slides with text. And, vice versa, from a slide presentation to outlined text document.

Within PowerPoint itself one can see the presentation text as an outline - moving items within the outline makes the corresponding moves within and among the slides.

There is one Linux jotter application that I know of which utilizes the outlining functionality with buttons, gjots2 [ http://bhepple.freeshell.org/gjots2 ]

The outling functionality (but without the graphic buttons) was present in a great DOS wordprocessor back in the very early 90's, Borland's Sprint. So, must I take it that one can patent the idea of using graphic buttons to move items within an outline?

...from After XyQuest finally demo'd a new release with the hot dos feature of the previous moment, graphical preview, at a trade show, the cascade of XyQuest marketing blunders culminated in announcement of an alliance with IBM that proved to be suicidal. During the years dosWordPerfect ruled word processing and Microsoft was finishing win3, XyQuest was crippling graphical xyWrite to comply with IBM's notion of what would make a worthy dos successor to DisplayWrite. Literally on the eve of already disastrously late release, IBM left XyQuest holding the bag that contained the molasses-slow and in many respects xyWrite-incompatible software that had been renamed Signature. When XyQuest released the pathetic dog, the reception was merciless.

Neat, I didn't know there was a name for it. It's just something I'd seen used a lot as a way of inserting footnotes into plain ASCII that I thought was reasonably elegant.

A lot of the common "plaintext markup" (not necessarily IEEE style) that I've always tried to use in text documents has been de facto formalized by the Markdown text-to-XHTML converter, which I think is the slickest thing since sliced bread. (Except, perhaps, for MultiMarkDown, which adds support for metadata and some other neat features, all while remaining reasonably painless to read in its plain-text form.)

As a slight digression, I think the rise and formalization of these lightweight markup 'languages' (not really languages...conventions?) is interesting to watch, because I remember when HTML was mostly used as a lightweight text-markup language. Somewhere along the line, HTML became a Turing-complete programming language for producing the glue code for web applications, and if all you want to do is write a document with headers, links, and basic formatting, you're better off going to something higher-level and processing it down later.

at least store your passwords in an encrypted file. I have a passwords file that gets synced between a few systems. I read the file using gjots2, which encrypts using ccrypt (with a very strong password) and it never writes the unencrypted version to disk -- only memory. I have 40-50 strong passwords this way.

Best of all worlds.

For those that are struggling to understand how the author of this article is accomplishing his approach, here is some further information.

The author obviously has a Linux server in his house, that is running DHCPD

To selectively send some clients to some locations, and others to the normal internet, he assigns an IP address on a different network to clients that don't have MAC Addresses that he knows about.

Forwarding on to sites of his choice is done by using IPTables, which is a utility that allows you to configure the packet filtering components of the Linux TCP/IP Stack. In this instance, the Linux box is just functioning as a firewall, and he is selectively sending requests from certain IP addresses to different hosts of his chosing.

Finally, the Up-side-down and blurry-image conversions is accomplished by sending page requests from those before-mentioned IP addresses to a proxy server, which in this case is Squid - and then allowing the proxy server to run a script which calls an ImageMagick command called mogrify which allows you to resize an image, blur, crop, despeckle, dither, draw on, flip, join, re-sample, and much more.

And that folks, is the rest of the story.

Everything should be done in base 2 (binary). For a "shorthand notation" we can use base 16 (hex)

Base 2 is practical for computers, because of how we currently build computer chips. Neither binary nor hexadecimal are particularly practical for humans. In fact, base-2 isn't even the best base for computers; 'e' (2.7...) is the optimal base, and 3 is closer to 'e' than 2. Ternary computers would be more information-dense and more efficient than binary computers.

To continue the devil's advocacy, hex isn't much better than decimal for practicality. 16 is divisible by 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16. That's three practical divisors, compared to duodecimals four. The only thing you gain in base 16 is division by 8, but you still lose division by 3, which is a more practical divisor.
