Just let me warn you: I don’t have any sort of education about these topics, and it’s all just mainly opinions and some pretty limited research. But anyway, I had this idea. I discussed it with a couple of people who showed varying degrees of interest in this subject ranging from “shut the fuck up” (yes, your name starts with an L, you know who you are alright), to insightful responses.

What if, hypothetically, I saved all the information in the universe (I do mean all), at a certain timeframe in the form of data, and then used physics to look back in time to see how it used to be at certain points in the past, easy.

First of all, this relies on the concept that space really is finite, or at least the amount of energy in the universe. Infinite amounts of data simply don’t work out, so that would rule out everything.

But let’s just assume that it’s all finite for now.

Now what if I tried not to look backwards in time, but forward, towards the future.

Whatever apparatus I’m using to calculate the future will pretty much have to calculate calculations it never actually made, and by that, by making that calculation, I am changing the possible future as I’m doing it.

Let’s imagine a little TV set that can show you the future. If you turn it on and see yourself in the future, the fact that you see yourself, as you watch it, has an impact on yourself, and if it’s even possible for you to see the future, which in this method in my opinion would be a bit of a problem.

Now the question is whether the apparatus could perhaps perform a certain calculation that has some sort of a recursion that can always be predicted? If it constantly calculates the calculation, and by that changes the future with the new calculation based on that, it’s constantly changing the projection, thus, can we make it so that itactually works?

By the way, as for the person who gently told me to just “shut the fuck up”: I don’t mind you shutting me up like that really, but “random” is not something forever unpredictable. It’s just something that doesn’t any pattern you are aware of. Just think about it.

It seems like hatred comes and goes in a similar manner to, surprisingly enough, fashion.

Back in the days of the cold war “commie”, “red”, “communist”, “soviet” and other similar nouns, adjectives and adverbs were used to define just about anything bad. The US government liked the term “communism” a lot, and was pretty much against anything even remotely ressambling communism.

Now there’s “terrorism”. It’s basically a term used to describe any sort of action that involves attacking you, pretty much. Not to say that it’s not an issue - it is, only it’s taken for more than what it really is among the public.

What do I mean by that? Well, I will allude to Bush’s “War against terrorism.” Wars are fought against countries, organisations and such, not against tactics. Terrorism isn’t centrelized. There’s no global terror comitee (non which I know of). It’s been used so much by the press that it became devoid.

Murder is not justified, even in the form of war. Especially when you’re targetting innocent civilians or vague concepts. How long will it take until the word “terrorist” would be used as a swear?

Today the Spanish Parliment decided to make P2P a civil offense, the law - get that - also applies to legitimate sharing of content even if the copyright allows you to share it via P2P.

Basically, this law makes no sense whatsoever. However, followed by their recent blank media tax, it makes perfect sense. The Spanish parliment simply fell under the pressure from the copyright holders, that frankly have no valid reasoning really against P2P as their content would be illegally redistributed anyway. This is the law that most annoyed me since ASBOs.

No, don’t ban Spanish products. What good would that do? However, I wouldn’t even mind organizing demonstrations and of course participate in them (either on the condition that they’re not violent, what would be the point of that?)

I urge you to start demonstrations yourself. We can’t just stay quiet like that.

And hopefully we’ll manage to see all forms of art, broadcast and expression liberated from copyrights in our lifetime.
