No FPS love in Deutschland

Today a news came into my surprise during my routine venture on the Net. And I thought this kind of censorship could only be in Singapore or something. However I guess it only take two clueless totalitarian states, one respectively from a fascist origin, to actually even contemplating such a legal sanction against violence video games. What I'm referring about is a tragedy happen late last month, an 18-year-old nut case went on a shooting postal rampage at his former junior high school in western Germany. Before killing himself, he managed to inflict a lead salads upon another 11 classmates. According to reports on the German news site Tagesschau, the man spent a fair bit of time playing "Counter-Strike," which some say may have led to his inspiration of this mass killings. As a result, two state governments in Bavaria and Lower Saxony have drafted legislation which, according to the Financial Times, would "subject developers, distributors and players of video games whose goal is to inflict 'cruel violence on humans or human-looking characters' to a fine and a maximum of one year in jail."
Well fellow October fest citizens all I can say to you right now that you might have to trade up your favorite FPS for beer or Space Invader or something. So if you play enough Pac-man, would one day you might go to the office and start cannibalizing your co-worker? Or better yet do the mushrooms in Super Mario brothers are the attempt of solicitations to minor for consuming the "magic mushroom". I guess this subliminal messages are perfectly alright with the Deutschland lawmakers. Nevertheless I'm inspire to offer a more suitable alternative to banning all the violence game, which if you postulate the thought according the German mindset. Here is a best solution for the game maker in Germany, make all your opponents in the game resemble the likeness of Hitler or the Nazis. I'm confident that the German government would give a green light to this. Hey if gaming is going to instigate someone into a murderous rampage, the carnage should mind as well falls in to the Nazis right ? After all they were the one who enjoying the killing the minorities in real life back in the days. So why can't we have them being slaughter digitally as a sub-level human category to satisfy our entertainment appetites. Which in hope would conform to the upcoming "German laws". So before I end this blog transmission take a good look at this Daily show clip and formulate your own conclusion.

Astronauts and the troops in Iraq

Tonight as I was on the computer listening to CNN on the background, apparently as a prelude to the holiday season it must have been a very slow news week, nothing of real interest but repeated reruns headlines about Iraq are all going down to hell. One of the news that has been floating around the tube lately is probably about the recent massacre in Iraq, which involved several troops attempt to cover up on the civilian killings and rapes . Many Iraqi civilians were outrage by the fact that the American solders was killing pretty much a few family of women and children. Also they managed to plant a few AK-47 on the men killed to make them appear to be an opposing insurgents. Anyway I shall spare you all the details, if you really want to incite a debate feel free to check the news online or something and make sure carry a loud argument in a bar for extra effect of flying beer bottles later on.

However as the news was unfolding I was perplexed my the fact that many high ranking military personnel and the news reporters were pretend to be dismay by the fact the American troops would committed such a horrific act for no apparently reason. Well you dumb ass look at the condition those troops been in for the past three plus years you'll understand why would they pick up arms and start being very trigger happy. So I went on a small mission and done some research to make sense of all this cloud of doubts, I ran into an old article of Wired Magazines talking about the 2004 NASAs publication of Bioastronautics Critical Path Road Map, in English is basically about identifying behavioral problem astronaut will have on a long trip mission and believe it or not is frighteningly similar to the situation in Iraqi right now. Here a few big ones that can lead to insanity.

Sleep Deprivation

Astronauts: A Spaceships noise and bright light can play havoc with sleep, and the absence of regular interval daylight and darkness.

Troops: Noises and lights of on oncoming RPGs and bullets plus an interval encounter of IED can definitely keep troops up for long extended period

Results: Acute or chronic degradation of sleep quality can bring on dangerous behavior.

Cat Fights

Astronauts: Its not uncommon for crew members to hate each others guts. The lack of social novelty can magnify tensions among the crews

Troops: When the troops have been rob of social novelty and a civil society these can exponentially magnify to aggressive behaviors

Results: Any insignificant quirks like the way a person chews or flying RPGs can cause an impulse response.

Bad News

Astronauts: A grief-stricken crew member could imperil everyone on board. Ex, Cosmonaut in Russia can not receive the death of family news from the ground control until the return.

Troops: Bad news of lost comrades is norm as the stock tickers on DOW JONES index

Results: serious strain to the cohesion unit which can compromise the mission.

Psychotic Breaks

Astronauts: Loneliness, injury, and failure to complete a mission which can cause depression

Troops: Loneliness from family and constant enduring injury can definitely invite a homicidal behavior.

Results: For astronaut, they have a protocol to restrain and sedate the individual for the rest of the mission, as for the troops I wish they can get some sedatives during their mission.

Sex:

Astronauts: None

Troops: None

Results: you all know the effect of prolong amorous frustration.

     

Psiphon - A good start for an open society

Even though this particular topic has been circling around the web since its release on December 1st, I felt compelled to spread the good news to the world of information that the fight for free access to the Internet has taken a turn for the better. Despite a small step in the on going struggle with many repressive regimes who are bent on controlling the power of information, nevertheless this a step to a significant paradigm shift in counter-censorship movement. With the advent of the Internet, many people have dreamt that this tool would open up the human society like once the printing press helped the desperate Europeans crawling out slowly from the Dark Ages. However nothing ever work like the ideal concept, censorship of the Internet is still an inescapable reality in many countries which at the end its citizens have to pay the price of ignorance for the sake of the "totalitarian social harmony", imposing antiquated laws by the relics of bunch dry old men. Who are cowardly grabbing on to their degrading power base, against the tide of technological change.
However today is different like once the Internet has done to open us up to the wealth of knowledge now we been given this tool

Psiphon is a censorship circumvention solution that allows users to access blocked sites in countries where the Internet is censored. Psiphon turns a regular home computer into a personal, encrypted server capable of retrieving and displaying web pages anywhere. Psiphon is a circumvention technology that works through social networks of trust and is designed to help Internet users bypass content-filtering systems setup by governments, such as China, North Korea, Iran, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and others.
Psiphon was originally implemented in Python, but has been re-designed and re-written in C++, and designed as a cross-platform, user friendly proxy server tool which uses a https protocol to transfer data. With a user name and password, people in countries that use Internet content filtering can send encrypted requests for information to a trusted computer located in another country and receive encrypted information in return. As https protocol is widely used for secure communication over the Internet (from web mail to internet banking), no government can block the usage of https.

So what does all these techno mumbo jumbles means? Well unless your country got a digital fortress like China with their super American made Cisco firewall hardwares and an army of trained hackers to hunt your ass down for their human organ trafficking market, then rejoice because there is absolutely no way that your government can stop these Psiphon social network node to "brute force" exploiting the worldwide packet transport of https.
Personally I believe that this method is bloody brilliant, though this method of proxy hoping might have been around since the conception of the web, but once you put a social network element into a mix and then you got one good roundhouse kick to the man. This should be a good lesson to all the repressive government regimes, the Internet belong to the world. Just because you happen to have a few miles of fiber optics buried behind your backyard and a few optical switches, please stop pretending like you own the Internet it just seem very pathetic. What a sweet revenge from the founder of the Internet protocol themselves who knew that once the world have learn to adopt the protocol there is no turning point from there and hence this a perfect example of be open or go back to the digital dark ages where you came from.

Here is the link for you to download the software, so for the folks who live in the non net regulated countries please support the cause, as for me an army of my buddies in the US has already setup the servers, so let the liberation of access begin !

Greatest Movements of the Slacker’s History

First of those who get to know me well over the years, especially the top 4 know that I love to be a slacker. To me being a slacker is not an immoral thing at all, the less time that I actually have to be involved in manual labor the more time I have to explore the realm of knowledge which really channels the cash flow of dollars. I guess because of this particular concept I have given up work related to any kind of manual labor ever again such as bartending for example. A lot of people have asked me the reason I quit bartending even though I was really knowledgeable in my field. Some called me the mixologist of Dallas, heck I invented Berry Mojito and god damm Tricktini for Reikyu, well for those of you who's in the know while I was the mixologist. I managed to even develop my own slacker hobby of the making an alternative residual income.Shit if you care to wonder I really got a better end of the deal just because at least Im not up there cutting up fish for a very long time trying to a petty mortgage. In fact now I have more time to be a slacker brewing my next monetary scheme dominations. Some of you might argue in disdain and say Nigger go get a real job! However on the contrary I might have to indulge you all in some example throughout the course of humanity.

Common now work didnt become a Western virtue until the Reformation, heck Adam and Eve didnt buckle down and got their hands dirty until they bit the apple and the Man upstairs gave them a boot. Even the Romans and the Greece considered work to be a curse thats why they invented slavery for their society. Though out history, loafers, loungers, slacker, and bum was pretty much misunderstood as a parasite of a productive society like Karl Marx would use us a scapegoat waited to be slaughter by the disgruntle uneducated middle-class. Anyway I shall leave you all with a little factoid to contemplate while you trying to file your TPS Report for the 10^th time and responding your entrails of memos during the day.

Greatest Movements of the Slackers History

Sir Isaac Newton: He invented gravity (alright alright he discovered) while sitting down slacking off looking around the damm apple tree.

Achievement: Gravity duh (alright the laws of motion), which is the precursor to Star Trek.

Benjamin Franklin: Our founding father liked to take airbaths that involved lying nude on his bed for an hour daily and hanging out with the Indians formulating the proto-concept of the Constitution (with the peace pipe too of course).

Achievement: He asserted that time is money, so he managed to made an eternal impression on the most beloved paper currency on the planet, The Benjamins.

Albert Hofmann: Swiss chemist took the world's first acid hit in 1943, when he touched a smidge of lysergic acid diethylamide, a chemical he had researched for inducing childbirth. Perhaps he was bored, later tried a bigger dose and made another discovery: the bad trip.

Achievement: LSD

The Nigger Effect

Alright I always been trying to steer away from giving an opinion when the involvement is over a social prejudice loud mouth. However after I have seen this clip about one of my favorite comedian bust a politically smack down on a reporter of News Corp. After I came down with a hard case of laughter, I now feel compel and somewhat obligated to share my two cents on the Michael Richards incident. for those of you who've been living under a rock or reside in Utah here is a quick info on who am I referring to.

Michael Anthony Richards (born July 24, 1949) is an American actor, three-time Emmy Award winner, writer, producer, and comedian, best known for playing Cosmo Kramer on the television show Seinfeld, which ran from July 5, 1989, to May 14, 1998, on NBC.

Now without a further adieu here is the video clip I want you all to have a good laugh and don't forget to dissect the message of Paul Mooney with a intellectual perspective.




First of I totally agree with Paul Mooney that if Michael Richards could blatantly use the N word without knowing the actual contemporary connotation of the word itself, then he definitely need to seek a profession helps on the anger management. By calling a certain demographic segment of people base upon their skin color in a derogated manner is so out of style about decades ago. However as for the mass media attacking on the political correctness of a white person shouting out the N word to promote their rating or distracting the masses from the real world problem such as the Iraq situation and the economic undercurrent, then News Corp here is a big middle finger for you !
The word Nigger sure is one of the ugliest word a white man could ever conceive to be manifested in the dictionary during the Imperialism period. However majority of people do not understand the N word itself in the modern linguistic utilization which hardly has anything to do with black people anymore. As a matter of fact I would say that the word Nigger would best suited for calling any individual of the utmost ignorance. To clarify my position of belief I would turn you all to the Afro-American cultural expert Martin Luther King Jr,

The Word Nigger in Boondocks



As you can see once we have understand the actual usage of the word Nigger in the modern world society, now the color of ignorance and hate have extended beyond the one race inour world. Though many Nay Sayer and the hypocritical intellectuals might call me that I'm displaying my coarseness through exposing controversy for maximum exposure. However on the contrary, I believe in the obligation to educated anyone of all races to understand the nature of hatred and prejudice. Because the real danger of devaluing certain group of society is not from the usage of derogatory terms but the deadly silence of contempt. For example the usual case would be some blond gold digger that love to bust a move on Kanye West tunes but not down to drop it like it's hot with a "brother", is a fine example of the modern prejudice. Yes I have seen it many way too many times during my years growing up in Dallas. In down south if you can't stand the word of Niggers, Crackers, Chings, and Asians as a mere horse play then you mind as well should move to Canada (I feel sorry for you). I couldn't recall those countless time when I use the word as calling some ignorant folks or a mere swearing like I would do to Jesus. Anyhow those exchanges add flavors in conversation are also reciprocated back to me in kindness too. You can ask my top friends on Myspace (which happen to Black, White, and Hispanic) I got more than a plenty Asian jokes right back throuhg out the years.

Here is the usual stereotype conversation we learned to enjoy when hanging in the bar on any typical weekend.

Steve(white): "Kirk Sato is that true that Asian guys are not fully equipped?"
Me(Asian): "Shut up drunkass Crackers"
Will(Black): "I don't know about you but that Latin broad got a Banging booty"
Angel(Hispanic): "What is up with black people and lumps ?"


As you can see I'm proud to say that if the UN are willing to learn our method of our social diplomacy in public engagement, there will never be war between the different ethic group of people. The trick is we all learn to communicate with a shear clarity and respect on one fucking language. So here is a piece of my mind to you all to ponder before the end of this blog transmission. It's not the word that spread the hate in the world but it's the idea of contempt that is the real soul of the devil....You know honey you're not all that !
