Let's build our own fscking Internet.


Yeah there's something about it in the syndicated news, but this should be more widely presented.

You know, I'm from the most beautiful country in the world, so if you read you'll get it.

Here you can read; http://www.muktware.com/4215/buildin...ands-interview

I mean, you can do this, you can't do that. WTF? You tell me something, when you were born did you have rights like any human being should have when it's born?

Oh man or woman, it's warm, here, 40 °C.

Funny question from someone born in a country that was under communist rule until the 90s.

We are all born inside the Matrix ... slaves. Most say ignorance is bliss. I will die a free man, that is my goal. I hope to live as a free man for at least a few years, but who knows.

P.S. Don't criticize what you don't understand. Those who were born in oppressive regimes know what they are and are scarred by them. You would greatly regret Communism coming to your country (which unfortunately it just might). You will know first hand the answer why, or you may not last that long.

Back on topic.

Alan I read that article when it was posted here and thought it would be a worthwhile excercise.

There have been many attempts to use an alternate type of network. None has gotten anywhere.

I didn't criticize - I merely noted the question struck me funny given that anyone born before the 90s in his country was NOT born a free man.

By the way Communism has already come to the West (at least in IT) - its called "Project Management". It has the same fatal flaw as "pure" Communism - the idea that everyone will work towards a common good rather than towards their own self interest.

MensaWater: your first post in this thread could be read as a personal attach. As I understand from the last one, it wasn't your goal.

However, this thread went out of topic. If you want to continue the discussion, create a new thread.
