Disappearing off into the sunset
Any day now
Vitalized
Decided to just say “fuck it” and go for some trophies, but I can’t actually tear my eyes away from this insanity: It almost, but not quite, makes me want a 3DS. I battered Rogue Legacy. I got e...
Joan Rivers
Unpleasant, acerbic, face-fucked mental old bat who was universally hated for her insane anti-Palestine rant just a few short weeks ago. Now she’s dead, it’s “legendary comedian sadly passes away...
Columbus
Columbus himself never said the world was round - he thought it was pear-shaped and about a quarter of its actual size. Despite his later reputation, his voyage of 1492 wasn’t intended to discove...
Well, shit...
I’m one lucky motherfucker. Sort of. Turns out, the court wasn’t for breach proceedings. No, it was because the previous sentence was deemed “unlawful” (for reasons I’m still unclear about). The...
Well...
…off I go. I’ll either see you all in a few hours or I’ll see you all in a few months. Wish me luck.
Corruption!
It’s been a while since I wrote an entry that wasn’t depressing or crime-related, so here’s some video-game shit for ya. Specifically, the art of ROM corrupting. You take a given ROM (which is a...
Fucked
Not sure if I’ve already written about this, but here goes anyway. I broke my bail conditions. I didn’t mean to, but it happened. I’m due in court on the 1st of September to answer to the charges...
Well, folks, it's been fun
I'm to appear in the Crown court again on Tuesday, and I have no idea why. According to my useless solicitor, it's a "breach matter". Which is strange because I haven't breached. Not once. The j...
PS3
So I dropped some cash and bought a PS3 slim with a bunch of games. Was thinking of getting a PS4 until I saw the price of those things. Glad I got another PS3, though, because the summer sale me...
Gone, baby. Gone
So I just watched Gone Baby Gone, after years of hemming and hawing at the idea of having yet another of my favorite novels being totally jacked by the movie industry, but I gotta say, the Afflec...
"Doxxed"
Well, I apparently got "doxxed". They were surprisingly thorough; they linked to websites I forgot I even had accounts on. Yup, home address, too, although that's really not hard to get since I'm...
My personal soundtrack
Listen to this over and over. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bE825afItQ
What the Hell is wrong with you people

"Selfish"
I could just copypaste the entire article into my PB, but I won't, because that would be dishonest. Instead, I urge you all to read this. All of you. http://www.theguardian.com/science/brain-flap...
Robin Williams
Devastated. I am deeply shocked and saddened. But you wanna know something that cements my hatred for the human race right now? The hashtag #RobinWilliams is "trending". People have sprung up "SH...
Lodger
Well, not quite. My friend Katie is living with us for a few months, and if it works out maybe on a more permanent basis. This is great, because A) she's a great friend and B) we need the money. ...
"Nerd"
When will this bullshit stop? You are not nerdy just because you watch The Big Bang Theory. You are not nerdy just because you follow Leonard Nimoy on Twitter. You are not nerdy just because y...
Alt-Fest
Cancelled. Son of a bitch. I hadn't secured my ticket yet, but this is amajor kick in the nuts. No other festival had a line-up as badass as that, and now I'll never be able to go. So fucking g...
Woohoo!
Suspended sentence, bitch! Suck on that, CPS!
My mood
Actually, this is the song I want playing as I'm being lowered into my grave: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFKUnfwBPTU
Comments are now fucking CLOSED, bitch!
This is what happens when you fuck a stranger in the ass! Anyway, um. Yeah. So. I went to court. That judge was a psychotic motherfucker. He told me I was going straight to prison and remanded m...
Court
I'm in court for sentencing today. WIsh me luck; whilst I'm hopinh I'll be around later to write more, there's a possibility that I might be in jail. Luckily, this is the worst thing - if they go...
Sheesh
So. It wasn't a stroke, thank fuck. She's apparently stopped taking her diabetes medicine and has no real food in the house. How long this has been going on for is anyone's guess, but we're fixin...
Stroke
My girlfriend's mother has had, it is currently suspected, a stroke. We're not sure yet, my girlfriend just rang me to say that her ma's having symptoms of a stroke, and the doctor has been calle...
Book Description
Transhumanism is a loosely defined movement that has developed gradually over the past two decades. It promotes an interdisciplinary approach to understanding and evaluating the opportunities for enhancing the human condition and the human organism opened up by the advancement of technology. Attention is given to both present technologies, like genetic engineering and information technology, and anticipated future ones, such as molecular nanotechnology and artificial intelligence.
The enhancement options being discussed include radical extension of human health-span, eradication of disease, elimination of unnecessary suffering, and augmentation of human intellectual, physical, and emotional capacities. Other transhumanist themes include space colonization and the possibility of creating superintelligent machines, along with other potential developments that could profoundly alter the human condition. The ambit is not limited to gadgets and medicine, but encompasses also economic, social, institutional designs, cultural development, and psychological skills and techniques.
