Micro$oft doesn't Care About Its User base

A few weeks ago, I downloaded Windows 10 to try it out. I had a copy of Windows 8.1 pre-installed on my Asus laptop and I decided that I'd give Windows 10 a spin. Mostly, I'm a Linux user and I had Manjaro, an Arch-based distro, installed on my laptop and was dual-booting between the two. Actually, I hadn't used Windows in months since I had purchased the laptop. I had discovered that one could install Arch Linux without having to use the "Arch Way", so I was using that on a daily basis.

Don't get me wrong, I've installed Arch using the method recommended by the Arch wiki, and I was thrilled that I could install a Linux system almost from scratch, without ever resorting to using an installed. That was way cool. But I digress.

How Did Everything Get Started?

I sometimes wonder how everything got started; the universe, I mean. How did it all start? Scientific orthodoxy nowadays says the "Big Bang" is what started everything. The Big Bang is an expression coined by astronomer Fred Hoyle to make fun of the theory. Hoyle thought the Big Bang was pseudoscience. There are scientists who disagree with the Big Bang, even today, they have other ideas.

I have to say that when I try to imagine that infinitely small point of heat and energy required by this theory, I just can't wrap my mind around that. My common sense says "no way!" How can something be infinitely small? It's just ridiculous! How can something be nearly infinite? That doesn't make sense. How can something so unimaginably small contain what is necessary to build a universe so unimaginably huge? Again, it makes no sense.

The Feminazis Are At It Again

I've read some pretty stupid shit on the Internet, but this takes the cake. In an article at The Waterpipe, titled "Can a Fart Be Misogynist?" (no, I'm not shitting you), one Ashley Ingle would have us believe that "if a woman was to fart in the presence of a man and the man responded by farting louder than the woman, then that would be rape." Did you get that? If I fart louder than a woman, I have just raped her. There seems to be no end to the stupidity of these shit-for-brains femenazis.

Babbling About Babel

Have you ever noticed the story of the tower of Babel in Genesis 11, and how everyone spoke one language, and how the god of the bible worried that they would eventually build a tower that would reach all the way up to heaven, where he lives? No? Really, I'm serious, it's in Genesis 11, read it for yourselves.
I'm guessing the guy that wrote this one, allegedly Moses (as if!), either didn't remember that he also wrote the following verses just one chapter before--actually, I think someone else wrote the Babel story and didn't bother checking, or wasn't acquainted with what we now know as chapter 10:

Architect: An Arch Linux Installer

Many moons ago, I wrote about an Arch Installer named Evo/Lution AIS,  using the command line as well as the Openbox graphical desktop in order to install a "vanilla" Arch. As far as I know, this installer was Jeff Story's baby, but also developed by Carl Duff, a former Manjaro dev. Manjaro is a distro I have worked with for about a year and I really enjoy installing it and using it.

Just a couple of day ago, I came across a new Arch installer called "Architect". This one is Carl Duff's baby. You can find out more about on Google Plus (G+). Carl has removed the graphical parts of the installer to make it a 100% comman line installer.

Homo Stultus stultus

Anatomically modern humans are referred to as “Homo Sapiens Sapiens”, which means literally, “Human Wise Wise”, a subspecies of “Homo Sapiens”, who is thought to have lived about 200,000 years ago. We are the only surviving hominid. Some have said that the name means, intelligent self-aware human. Yes, we're supposed to be the intelligent ones. Really? Name me one other species who pollutes and poisons its habitat for fun and profit? I know of only one: Homo Sapiens Sapiens. Or should I call it Homo Stultus Stultus?

Jesus Predicts The End: He Fails Miserably.


The gospels of Mark, Matthew and Luke, tell us of a time when Jesus, having just cursed the Pharisees, tells his disciples that the Jerusalem temple will be totally destroyed. Of course, this would be a great shock to any believing Jew, since the temple was the centre of their religious lives. As Jesus climbs the Mount of Olives and finds a place to sit, one of his disciples points out the construction of these wonderful buildings, and apparently they were quite a sight to behold, but Jesus tells that that not one stone will be left upon another.

Four of his disciples, whom Mark identifies as Peter, James, John and Andrew, approach Jesus privately and ask him the following questions: “Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign when all these things are about to be accomplished?”
