This guy...

... has no fucking chance. He's either mentally imbalanced or he has a weird-ass sense of humour. Either way, mate, keep fuckin' dreaming. This guy's suing the state of New York for $2,000,000,0...

Bad habits

Huh. Even I, as magnificent as I am, am not immune to habit; just now, when typing in the URL of this place, I realised I'd automatically started typing "ope" before correcting myself. I suppos...


My "craptop" isn't as crap as I thought it might have been. With some hardcore fucking tweaking I have managed to get Borderlands to run at an acceptable frame-rate. BL2 most likely wouldn't dig ...

"Im nigerian and i find this so disrespectful. People have turned this #bringbackourgirls into a fad. Do you even know how/why the girls were kidnapped and by who? Do you even care? Or are you ju...

Hump Day

1) "Hump Day" is fucking stupid. Therefore 2) You are stupid if you ever say "Happy Hump Day!", and 3) I fucking hate you all. Every day is hump day in my household. I'm saying I get laid a...

Mind boggling.

It was rude, callous, and not particularly pleasant, but a man is facing jail after posting a joke on facebook. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-27414381 "All sentencing options are open"....

Reviews

My belief that reviews are to be ignored almost completely is fully justified. The IGN review of Borderlands 2 on the Vita was less than complimentary, and subsequent reviews were also lukewarm, ...

More food for thought

Especially if you call yourself a "science geek" just because you watch The Big Bang Theory.


1) Anybody who writes "should of" when they mean "should have". Bastards. 2) People who refer to their gaming PC as their "rig". 3) While I'm at it, people who confuse "their" with "they're". ...

A reminder

Remember, folks, if you're offended by anything you see on my Prosebox journal thingy TOO FUCKING BAD. You do, of course, have the right to be offended. You just don't have the right to waste ...


They're in, and they're not as complimentary as I kinda hoped, but let's be honest here - these reviews are almost all comparing the Vita version to the PC or Xbox 360 versions. That's not really...

And on that note...

Have you ever noticed that it's only 'perfect' people who are murdered or killed in horrific accidents? "He was the perfect son" or "She was the perfect daughter." "Such a tragic accident they we...

You feel *what*?

So get this. A man named Ryan Noval has said that he feels "raped" after a nurse allegedly sealed up his newborn baby's mouth with surgical tape. This is a phrase that needs to die. Okay, mate,...

H.R. Giger

I'm not one for art. In fact, just about all modern art, and the vapid cunts who call themselves "artists", tends to make me break out in uncontrollable vomit. But Giger was something else. I've...

"News"

Well, let's see what's been happening this week. Justine Beiber and her mother were booed at a basketball game. Caroline Aherne has lung cancer :(. The prickwad-infested KKK was confronted by ...


Well, Russia is lulzworthy once again. This time they've decided to hit The Sims 4 with an adult rating simply because you have the option to enter into same-sex relationships in the game. The po...

Twitter bollocks

I completely forgot why I made a twitter account, but if you're so inclined you can catch my award-winning tweets of pure hatred: @CaptainFeck I promise I'll update more if I get some more follo...

"Scary" games

After just recently beating Penumbra (unholy shit-yourself-fest: ) I decided to pursue some of the "scarier" games out there. I add quotation marks simply because there are some out there who bel...

Book Description

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=MYC5VFuiblU

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.
