Well, I try to keep up with recent events in the scientific community. And as far as that goes little can compare with Nature. Unfortunately I’m always lagging behind about one issue for geographical reasons. But enough about that. There were a couple of things in the last issue that really inspired and provoked me. [...]
What a surprise. Swedish Karolinska Institute allowed another breach of their extensive Biobank material. This time to help ID tsunami victims. While not related to criminal activity as last time, this is still noteworthy.
Am I the only one who can see the danger here? It’s not in any way innocent or commendable and in the [...]
Fear can make people highly irrational. Just look at what is happening to the predator populations of Scandinavia. Just today, some uninformed peasants killed yet another wolf, illegally, in the north of Sweden. And we have all read about the outrage over recent events in Norway regarding wolves and lynxes. There are even those, on [...]
Yet another clist plugin for Miranda, in addition to the clist_mw and clist_classic that are already packaged with the RC2. Clist_nicer promises a new curvier interface and ultimately, a more or less free form contact list.
There is thread here with some screenshots of what can be accomplished using clist_nicer.
Maybe it’s just me but I can’t [...]
There have been a slew of cases where photographers have been deprived of rights recently. Boingboing has a story about a freelance photographer who was stopped from taking pictures of a San Francisco MUNI station. The wannabe cops cited a nonexistent “post-9/11 law” and called the real cops who were just a uncooperative. Even abusive. [...]
Some loose wiring. Nothing to worry about I think. But nevertheless I regret using Drive Cleaner to try and remove Catalyst and Nforce drivers. That cost me a complete reinstall. Ah, great. Thankfully, Firefox and Thunderbird are so much easier to import from a previous install. Nothing lost but time.
I should really get a new [...]
MPAA obviously hijacked the Lokitorrent domain. They also want the server logs but if they can get to them is another matter. This is surely one of the most aggressive moves from the industry in a long time. And I think it’s preaching to the choir. All I get is very, very angry when I [...]
Sometimes I get the feeling that sci-fi is a dying genre. At least that has been the trend for the last couple of years. At least that has been my own very subjective observation.
Star Trek Enterprise seems to be over. No renewal. No reconsideration. I can’t say I’m gonna miss the series terribly .. but [...]
I’m faced with a linguistic problem here. Copyriot’s story of the day, in Swedish of course, is covering a brand new report from EUDOXA (background):
Eudoxa AB is a think tank analysing how society and culture are changed by technology and scientific progress. We produce books, courses, reports, speeches, and articles regarding our core areas of [...]
