Blog Link: “PALEO-FUTURE”

The tagline is A look into the future that never was.
It looks interesting.

Thinking About Apollo 11

I was too young to remember it, but I was inspired by it and the subsequent missions. I didn’t want them to stop. I wanted the Orbital stations, the moon colony, and the mars mission. I wanted my Science fiction future. I don’t want humans stuck on Terra Firma waiting for a natural or self-created [...]

“…scientists in Australia have found a way to stop the body from attacking organ transplants…”

This is awesome news if it works out.
Now we just need to allow folks or estates to be compensated for Organ Donation to increase the supply/availability.

The Coming Dark Days

The American Left is getting in the mode for what is to come in January.
Smitten Eagle has a post with videos of what they are even doing to the you. Disgusting.
Dark Days are ahead for my country. The forces of the left are rising and have become the default narrative.
Here is what I thought of [...]

Here is what my brain is screaming: How do we make the next version of the USA?

I am pretty pissed. This is all I can think of right now.
It is time to put this statist / Marxist / corrupt-elites crap behind us once and for all.

Update: Read this at Amicablecollisions –
Is it going too far to conclude that our political class is a greater threat to America than Al Qaeda? [...]

Entrepreneurship Opportunity? “Farming in the Sky”

From Popular Science:
The choice is clear—rethink how we grow food, or starve. Environmental scientist Dickson Despommier of Columbia University and other scientists propose a radical solution: Transplant farms into city skyscrapers. These towers would use soil-free hydroponic farming to slash demand for energy (they’ll be powered by a process that converts sewage into electricity) while [...]

Cringley touches upon the emergence of Super Empowered Individuals

Cringley is a documenter/pundit of computer geeks and their world. He does calls them “nerds” though which shows he does not have a full understanding and is apart from them.
Anyways, in a recent article he wrote:
There is a technology war coming. Actually it is already here but most of us haven’t yet notice. It [...]

Note to MySelf: 6GW as Post-Singularity Warfare?

While reading a new-ish Dreaming 5GW post, I followed this old link to Shloky’s blog where the idea of Sixth-Generation Warfare (6GW) came up.
I am posting it here as a reminder to myself to post on the issues.
It is too soon to be thinking 6GW. The post-singularity world can be glimpsed though.
Here is my comment:
I [...]

“Blue on Blue” Lawfare

Wolf Pangloss writes about an incident:
The kill had already been approved by the American command. And the main job of soldiers in war is to kill the enemy, which Buntangyar was. So, the American soldiers shot him.
And now the lawyers have decided to prosecute them for murder.
Some quick Thoughts:

Why the fuck are the JAGs running [...]

“Huge penis engines are the answer”

How to generate cheap energy is the question.
Scott Adams writes:
As you can see from the story, big companies are building Stirling engine farms to capture the sun’s energy more effectively than photovoltaic panels. This could work, but it’s not the economic model that will set us completely free. Let me tell you what is: Giant [...]

The Futurist Covers “The Top Ten Transhumanist Technologies”

It is worth reading.

6GW?

I just had a 6GW though as a comment on a TDAXP post:
Here is a 6GW thought: 6GW will be the peaceful competition between citizens after the states has withered away and the world is pure peer-to-peer. There is no kinetic war at all (complete dispersion).
I just wanted to capture this before I forgot where [...]

The Mission For Our Generation and The Next

TDAXP writes (and cross-post at Dreaming 5GW):
The anti-Communist 5GW that was built up at the beginning of the Cold War is still functioning in spite of widespread recognition that is has been obsoleted by its own success.
The anti-Disconnectedness 5GW that must be built up at the beginning of this Long War must be similarly durable. [...]

“The clear implication from this report is that any political or religious group that expresses opposition to the atheistic and dictatorial agenda of the state will be collectively demonized as terrorists and targeted for elimination and ethnic cleansing.”

EmptyStreets has an interesting post entitled: “the future is bright because it’s burning…“.
It has as its starting point a scary/bad future scenario by the UK, and goes right to the logical ramification of belief in that kind of future by the state:
This is the very new world order that the establishment have sought to create [...]

“Science Fiction in the National Interest”

Excellent news!

Airships!

The Aeroscaraft Airships (via NT Nerd):
This is not a Blimp. It’s a sort of flying Queen Mary 2 that could change the way you think about air travel. It’s the Aeroscraft, and when it’s completed, it will ferry pampered passengers across continents and ocean s as they stroll leisurely about the one-acre [...]

SLOE/Future (Security, Liberty, Opportunity, Enrichment for the Future)

Zenpundit writes:
Should the major parties fail to generate some new, creative and relevant ideas in a short time horizon – something that is not likely to happen in my view – it means that 2008 is wide open for somebody “outside” the system who can bring both vision and financial wherewithal to the table as [...]
