Television. Don't we all know it? Of course. We grew up with it (at least the people of my generation and later, which makes for a lot of people). Still it's hard for many folks to understand that I don't watch television. I tell them, they nod, and they don't get it. I don't watch television. I do watch some episodes of a few series that I find online, I watch DVDs and Blurays, but not…

A home without a cat, and a well-fed, well-petted and properly revered cat, may be a perfect home, perhaps, but how can it prove its title?' -- Mark Twain

I've had this think again. I wondered how old the earth is, according to the christian bible. On "god and science" I found this: Okay, so bible-addicts should agree that the world is a bit over 6000 years old, as a result of 4004+2014. That makes 4017 years. No, not 4018 as it's not past October 23rd yet this year. Please pay attention! ;-) This means that they'll never believe something that I found in…

Tux. The Linux mascotte. I saw this a while ago: No, you don't. Why not? The short version: get a clue about Linux. Of course, this is very short. Allow me to dispel a few myths about Linux.

I got a new laptop last year September. It contained windows 8. Not the easiest thing to get around in when you're used to Linux and already managed moderate success with windows 7. Slightly annoying. Then came windows 8.1. Same thing as above, only more annoying as I still had to look up via Google how to do certain things. Windows 8.1 is probably fabulous, but not very intuitive for me. Well, I can always…

I love gadgets. I have lots of them and they love me: I don't have to buy them, they follow me home. But... I don't like the mass of wearable things that are popping up now, especially the ones that can track every little thing you do. Your smartphone is already a walking, talking unit that betrays every move you make. (Cell phone towers that know where you are simply because your phone is on,…

Maybe a silly question. An online search says: I wonder about the second one. Oh, not in a physiological sense, but in a humane sense. It's the second one, the one that doctors have to abide by through their Hippocratic Oath. (Link to PDF.) They basically promise to sustain the human machine (body) and do what they can to keep it going for as long as possible. But... Is that what we want? I'm convinced that…

Well said.
