My favorite forum is out of commission for the time being so I’ve invited some Pastafarians over to visit my blog while we all impatiently wander the internet, mentally or literally biting our fingernails until a solution is found. In an effort to be a good host, I’ve decided to put more effort into my posts. I [...] I’ve wanted to get a Kindle ever since I heard about it but cash was tight. Then, out comes the Kindle2. Now, I read about technology that would give the Kindle2 color. My fantasies are becoming obsolete almost faster than I can come up [...] I’m sure many people discuss their online relationships on their blogs and the contradictory nature in sharing private, intimate emotions and camaraderie with someone who you’ve never laid eyes on, never heard speak, and might be feeding you a fantastical picture of themselves with no basis for existence in the real world. Well, I feel the need [...] Life has no inherent meaning. Oh, you want more? Life is simply the result of a replicating pattern that was really quite inevitable given the available resources of the universe and an unlimited amount of time.

Procrastinating is a difficult trait for me to get a handle on. I have a very busy lifestyle but I still feel as if there are important things I should be doing. As Perry and Hamming mention, prioritizing is a type of procrastinating. I have short [...] While searching for ways to justify my procrastination, I came across these interesting essays, which, indicative of my internet habits, eventually led me to this transcript of a speech by Richard Hamming. Perry takes a more humorous approach and recommends more structure to your procrastination, while Hamming actually encourages more procrastination in certain areas in order [...] I’ve been thinking about the upcoming singularity and some of its perceived benefits. Like how it wouldn’t really benefit me to download all my memories and thought patterns into an immortal machine intelligence if my body continued along its current path of decay. What good would it do me if I created a doppelganger who thought [...] Okay, there obviously aren’t enough hours in the day for me to continue my current lifestyle and blog and work on getting my webcomic up and running. So far I’ve been cutting back on sleep but the sleep toxins are building up. I fear I may have to cut back on the recreational drinking next and [...] |
