A review of a certain website.

Prime example of a horrible community, everyone is just out there to offend everyone. Lots of nude pictures, gore pictures, offending pictures, racism, xenophobia, homophobia, anti furry, sexism. If you are not one of them (heterosexual white male atheist) be prepared to take an insult. They also hack everyone who tries to stand up against them. Not for the weak hearted and especially not for kids and young adults, 21+ atleast!! As a proud gay christian furry I was insulted again and again for my choice of lifestyle everytime I tried to start a conversation. Also, a big minus for no accounts, it gets annoying that you have to write your nickname everytime you post. And other people might steal my nickname to try to imitate me. Overall I would not recommend to visit this site unless you are a psychopath!

A hypothetical situation.

Kā man izskatās situācija, ja pieņem likumgrozījumus/nolīgumus, kas pieprasa, lai tiktu pieskatīts saturs, kas ienāk un iziet no interneta katrā datorā.

Par spīti tam, ka tas jau ir iespējams pēc tam, kad transakcija/apmaiņa ir veikta, ja tas būs absolūti nepieciešams, pie tam, katram datoram, tas nozīmē, ka būs arī kāds, kam šis darbs būs jāveic. Pie tam, ne par brīvu. Kas, savukārt, nozīmē, ka šis darbs kādam būs jāapmaksā. Jautājums ir par to, vai to apmaksās valsts un tās budžets, pie tam, tas nozīmē, ka būs augstāki nodokļi (lai apmaksātu visu nepieciešamo), vai arī par to būs jārūpējas interneta provaideriem, šajā gadījumā, izmaksas tiek pievienotas interneta abonēšanas maksā. Īsti nesaprotu, kā tas ietekmētu ekonomiku (piedodiet, Falkas kundze, jūsu stundās biju bieži saguris un novērsts), taču bilde, kas atspoguļo, kā tas ietekmētu individuālās izmaksas saistībā ar internetu, manuprāt, ir acīmredzamas.


Tālāk, par kopēšanas tiesību un intelektuālā īpašuma ideju. Atkal minēšu, ka šis ir mans skatījums un es labprāt redzētu arī citus. Brīdī, kad cilvēks nopērk, pieņemsim, mūzikas disku, cenā tiek iekļautas ne tikai fiziskās izmaksas, bet tas, ko vislabāk var nodēvēt par patērēšanas tiesibām, proti, tiek apmaksātas tiesības izmantot/baudīt/piekļūt diskā iekļautajai informācijai.
Šeit rodas, manuprāt, neliela problēma. Ja ir likumīgi iegādāties filmu/mūziku diskā un atskaņot to tā, ka tā ir dzirdama arī cilvēkiem, kas par tiesībām uz šo informāciju nav samaksājuši (skatīties filmu ar ģimeni), līdz ar to, tāda lieta, kā piemēram, stream, arī ir absolūti likumīga uz tā paša pamata līdz brīdim, kamēr par to netiek saņemta maksa.

Tas paver logu pirātismam, pie tam, ļoti vienkāršu. Ja ir iespējams likumīgi (un es neredzu, kādēļ lai tas būtu nelikumīgi, but do tell me if you find something to the contrary) sniegt šo informāciju bez maksas (kamēr tā ir oriģinālā stāvoklī un kvalitātē), tad tās saņēmējiem, stream gadījumos, ir ļoti vieglas iespējas šo informāciju ierakstīt, lai pielietotu atkārtoti. What exactly could they do about that, other than banning streaming on some bullshit principles?

Either way, what they are trying to do doesn't make much sense to me largely.

I just made myself tea while the crippled cat is trying to clean itself.

Finding people worth spending my time with is like finding a diamond in a huge, steaming pile of shit that just seems to get bigger with each passing second.

It is 28 past ten, and I've spent the last 4hours non-stop on the internet. Mostly reading articles. Not sure, but I think the amount I spend on internet (when I get the chance) might be characterized as a form of psychological addiction.

Anyhow, to the point. Although I'm not sure how many, if anyone, will read this, but this space is as much about me getting the thoughts out as it is getting them to someone, just feel like spilling the guts.

Most of the people I've met in my life, have been, what I'd call, ''passers''. They don't remain here for long, be it because I don't want them around anymore, I never wanted them around to begin with or that they don't want me around. Latter bothers me the least, actually.

I do admit that I do not understand how people sustain friendships for a really long time, but I especially don't understand the effort put into it because of principles that seem to me completely insidious.

Judging from experience, tales and statistics, most people are either not worth spending your time with, and quite a lot are not worth spending your time with yet. I've seen people change into what is a more attractive personality, and, sadly, quite the reverse, too. Still don't see much of a pattern, maybe my fault, maybe there is no pattern to see, maybe there are just too many factors for me to comprehend.

Anyhow, besides that, nothing that much to add, besides things like me doing more drug experimentation lately and changing my views one-at-a-time, to even more unpopular ones in comparison to what they were before. If majority thought I was a whack before, now they would think so even more. And that is okay.

I mean, what isn't okay in this world, really? Desensitization, coupled with distancing, is, in a way, a tactic of coping.

Speaking of coping. A quick thought on trauma got me thinking. Trauma is, in general, bad for well-being, but, as it is unavoidable in the process of existence, it is significant that trauma occurs, preferably, in proportionally increasing amounts. Let's say we make a scale, 1 to 10, of the traumaticism of experiences. If a person has experienced no trauma in its life and its first experience of trauma is a 10, chances of that person coping and handling it are way lower, than if said person has experienced weaker proportions of trauma before, as it toughens us up. One has to remember, however, that, as one movie put it, ''every man has his breaking point'', and that certain experiences, especially on a long enough timeline, can shatter almost anyone. There are variables, but everyone can break, once the limit is breached.

I just wonder what will be my next breaking point.
