Yes we are indeed brainwashed. It started with the television, invented by the CIA as a means of mass-influence.

We are but a mere number but who cares?

It's really just a blue pill-red pill kinda thing.
It can be explained as Blue pill / Red pill situation, but i can't agree that we are just a mere number, and i care. First of all, only selfish people look on other people only like numbers, and that is wrong on so many levels. But most important thing here is that we don't lie to our self, and after that to other. It is bad and sad to see someone who lives in a lie, and i don't want that for my self. So that is why its important to take the "right pill" . Cheesy

@ Masha Sha, I presume you'll be amoungst the first to sign up for some front line action?

or just a keyboard warrior Smiley



Keyboard warrior is well said. Unfortunately, I know of another warrior's Twitter is Trump. He also says that make America great, but effective strategy he has no.


Keyboard warriors, they control predator drones using keyboards and joysticks. They strike right into the heart of the enemy and it gives them heart attack. The enemy fear the skies thanks to these keyboard warriors piloting computer controlled Predator drones .

Weapons are going digital and the Chinese are getting more technologically capable. They now manufacture their own jets.

Beyond the horizon. Anyway american warriors lives are too precious to be wasted when fully self aware combat machines can bring a new level of lethality. Add autonomous building of those machines and you get that converting energy to lethality in the most efficient and fastest way is the new paradigm of real modern warfare.

It's nice to have ideals of chevalry or what ever, but at over 100ms for human decisions making is quite slow in highly dynamic battlefields.

0 casualty war concept has been proven operational in lybia. Iron dome sol air interceptions is working back it by on site manufacuring of kinetic weapons and time comes to try the 60 seconds war.

In 1 minute a nation can be gone, without using wmds. Which nations can still exist after 6000 subwmds strikes? I bet you the second nation targeted will instantly and unconditionnaly surrender.

Flash wars.

Well said, the evolution of war and war technology has advanced, and it will continue to do so until there is no more wars. But i think that maybe is not possible because people will always fight for something, for more power and such. Who can tell what kind of robots and non human devices will we see on battlefields, and that is good, because there will be less human casualties, but at the end there will always be human casualties, and that is sad.

As you may know that UK will have a referendum about whether they will leave the European Union or not.
So I want to know your opinion regarding this issue, SPECIALLY who live in Europe or UK:

Are you with or against "the U.K. quits the European Union" ?
First of all i must say that im living in Europe, but im not from United Kingdom. So everything i have to say is my own seeing of things and opinion. If politician of United Kingdom think that there country can survive without EU that that is it. I think that United Kingdom can live and prosper without being part of EU, but im not sure what UK lose with not being part. That area is what makes me wonder. But in general i think its is good, because one country knows what is best for it.
1164  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Are we brainwashed? on: April 06, 2017, 08:52:52 PM
I look around and see people no longer have goals.
We are perfect consumers. And I can't help thinking that over time, we have been "gently" pushed in this direction.
No more goals, no ideas, ideology, morals or principles. Just having the latest iWhatever, fast car and sleep with plenty of women. Like a new special breed of zombies.
In the past people fought and gave their life for freedom. And now I think we are less free then before. It's just that we are persuaded otherwise. Like in ancient Rome - bread and circus.
Ahh you are right more or less, it all depends where you live and what personality you have. There are a lot of people that i know which have goal in there life. Some succeeded and some i hope will in future. But you are right when you say that most of people are made in perfect consumers, i see that more and more everyday. And it saddens me a lot. What you said about past and fight for freedom and rights are not needed in this day and age, because we have most of that. It all comes with evolution of human society. Person with enough personality will know what to do and what he wants, and won't succumb to other peoples brainwash.

I've seen a lot of priests in my lifetime from bad to "creature you can't classify" but this doesn't mean their religion is "poison".

There is an abnormally high percentage of catholic priests who are pedophiles...

AND... THE VATICAN COVERED IT UP!!!1!1!!!!!

The Vatican knew children were being raped... and instead of firing the priests... they moved them to a new church... to molest a whole new congregation

That's being complicit in child rape!

They should be in prison for being an accomplice to a felony

That is poison!

What is your definition of poison?
You are right, but i would not use word poison, but a word Crime. If all what you said is truth, and i don't know, because im not living in any country where that happened, and im not Catholic. That that is really a crime like all other crime there is, and it should be punished by severe punishment. I don't like pedophiles, and when i hear something like that i tend to go a bit berserk. I don't like people who hides behind someone else.

Cause life is the test
Come on dude, don't say something like that. Because do you mean on religion, or maybe something else. Because if you think on something else, well that could be something new to hear, and maybe learn. But if you speak about after life from religious perspective that, i think that is debatable. Because after life can't be proven and that is gray area for all.
1167  Other / Off-topic / Re: Save you Bitcoin for your (grand) child / children? on: April 06, 2017, 08:39:15 PM
No doubts. It could be a good idea to set aside a small amount for grandchildren.
I hope that the development of humanity will step into the future for as many fast that the grandchildren or great-grandchildren will not need anything. While agree that bitcoin savings in the future will give a very huge profits for our descendants.

Well its debatable if bitcoin will rise or fall in near or far future. But it wont hurt to save some for future. But how much is better question. Because if you save small sum for grand children maybe it will be too small amount, I dont think that bitcoin will rise that much so that you can for few bitcoin become rich in future.
Thus still profitable to keep bitcoin until a certain time, namely for the high prices, but already there to be seen, who would get the coin. The main thing that prospects were good.

I believe that Bitcoin will be much more expensive in the future. and it's a good idea to take care of their grandchildren and keep them some Bitcoins.
but so far I have no way to do it. I do not have grandchildren yet

It is same with me, i mean i don't have grandchildren yet. But i do think that it is good idea to leave some bitcoin for future. I know bitcoin is too unstable now, but who knows what will happen in future. Maybe it will worth small fortune or maybe it will die in about 5 years or so. It is too unpredictable for now, but i will save some even if it goes to waste.
You do not have grandchildren, but only so far. More time has not come. But when there will be, then you will be pleased with him, that at some point planned to save and leave the bitcoin for future generations of his family.
Well hope to ling long and see for my self, other than that i can't do anything else for now. As i said at the end of my post, I will leave some small amount for future, because who knows what will happen, and how much bitcoin will be worth. But as far as i heard there is too much going on with mining bitcoin at the moment, and who knows how will it end. We shell see Cheesy .
1168  Other / Politics & Society / Re: World War III ? on: April 06, 2017, 08:26:57 PM
WE already had World War III.
It was so called ''cold war'' between America and USSR.
Now, we have war against terrorism but not World war.
It's true that Putin fight against West and America, but it's not war about ideology any more.
It's more about economy, resources and global influence.
So, current conflict we can't call World War really.
They will even cooperate against global terrorism, if needed.


Well for a war to become a World War it needs to be on a world scale. War in between two or maybe tree or more countries doesn't necessarily need to be World War. And i can't agree with you when you say that Cold War was World War III, because it was only America and USSR, not on world scale don't you agree. There are all kind of war out there, but till now we only had two World Wars, hope it will not come to a third.
1169  Other / Politics & Society / Re: World War III ? on: April 06, 2017, 01:59:29 PM
World war III. People die everyday. Terrorism are widespread worldwide. Robberies, murders, threats, political wars, bombing, theft, cold wars, exchanging of threatful and hurtful words in social medias and we still not call this a world war? Dogma and beliefs has been the major cause of contradictions and misunderstandings. Greed's and the desire of power make people suffer. What we have been experiencing right now is world war III, people are not aware but we are fighting for survival everyday. The informations that is being feed into us are tampered by the global elite. Not mentioning the plans and classified missions that kills millions of people. Sometimes we don't even don't know the truth anymore. World war III is happening now. It is happening in the community and inside of ourselves.
I am not sure if i could say its World War III, but a war that has been going on since dawn of humanity. Sadly you are right about everything you said, and it saddens me more that i didn't see some aspects of things you said, and i try to be honest to my self all the time. There is so much "darkness" in people, and I am afraid that it will always be part of our lives.
1170  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Dubai has world's fastest police car -- and it can go 253 mph on: April 06, 2017, 12:41:22 PM
Nowhere else in the world can you hail a police car and snap a selfie with the driver.

Nowhere else in the world is that police car likely to be a Bugatti Veyron, Ferrarri FF or Lamborghini Aventador. This is Dubai, where the police force has just been presented with a certificate by Guinness World Records for having the world's fastest police car in service -- a Bugatti Veyron -- just one of its 14-strong fleet of supercars.

A fleet of luxury supercars may sound outlandish, but it fits perfectly with the ethos of Dubai.

In a city where to turn heads your Bentley or Rolls Royce needs to be wrapped in gold, it seems normal for the police force to have a suite of supercars at its disposal.

The fleet includes a bespoke Aston Martin One-77, of which only 77 were ever built, a Bentley Continental GT, three hybrid Porsche Panameras and two BMW i8s.


http://edition.cnn.com/2017/03/24/autos/dubai-police-supercars/index.html
I think that is just showing off, I know that there are a lot of rich people in Dubai, but for Police force to have such exotic and expensive cars is just not needed. There are a lot of fast cars and i understand if police need to catch or stay with criminal with there car. But there is another question... Is it safe for civilian and police to drive as fast as some criminal, it is bad to have one really fast car driving, do we need another one?
1171  Economy / Marketplace / Re: What would you like to buy? on: April 06, 2017, 12:27:01 PM
I want to buy clothes as teenager I want beautiful clothes , branded and good quality . When my friends have birthday I use my branded clothes that I bought when I got my payout in bitcoin. I have many clothes I bought because of bitcoin. And Im very thankful because Bitcoin gives me opportunity to earn money even if Im in here home only. I want to buy also when I get my payout this week android cellphon I hope you can add it here.
It is interesting how far Bitcoin have evolved and come. Before four years i have not even heard about Bitcoin, and now i am thinking in investing some money in to it. I think that there is big opportunity for us to earn some really good money on it. After that we can buy, well almost anything we want Cheesy . I also hope that there will be more places i could spend Bitcoin in my country. Bitcoin community grows, and that is good.
1172  Economy / Marketplace / Re: What would you like to buy? on: April 05, 2017, 09:09:29 PM
Actually for start it would be good if i could buy anything in my town with Bitcoin. At the moment there are few places in my country that accept Bitcoin as way of paying, and those places are in the major cities of my country. I think that first thing that im going to buy, to pay for will be dinner at one of restaurants in capital city of my country. But it would be good if we could buy everything with bitcoin, and i hope it will happen one day.
1173  Other / Off-topic / Re: Suggest me a movie on: April 05, 2017, 09:04:03 PM
I am currently downloading some latest movies. Already download 8 movies today and I want to download more. Suggest me a movie that you think is really good and I will watch it.
I'm having a movie marathon tomorrow.  Tongue
Im not in move with newest movies, but there are some older that i could recommend to you. If you like westerns, A Fistful of Dollars (1964) is really good movie, and of course Good, Bad and the Ugly. If you would like to watch something newer watch Shutter Island from 2010. And if you want to watch some science fiction, well there are always Star Wars movies Cheesy. I have not watched newest part, but i heard its not so good. Did you think about TV shows maybe?
1174  Other / Off-topic / Re: Would YOU choose to live forever? on: April 05, 2017, 08:49:42 PM
There is a good movie In Time (2011), It provides an interesting perspective on the issue
Actually when you think about it, we already play for everything in our life with life time. It is simple. Most of things on our world can be bought for money. There are necessary things that we need in life, like food, water and shelter, and there are those things that are no so much necessary. It can be looked like this... you need money so you work. Your are losing life time on work, so that you can get money. Life time = money. When you calculate how much money you earn on hour, after its easy to calculate how much life time you eat, drink, ride, how much it cost you the suit that you wear etc. Than you realise how much life time we spend on worthless things.
1175  Other / Off-topic / Re: What Are Your Thoughts On Vegans? Or Going Vegan ? on: April 05, 2017, 02:00:41 PM
Not thoughts at all actually. Lots of the vegan people I know, don't eat meat, but they eat fishes and other sea fishes. I guess fishes have no life.  Undecided Animals there are in our world for some reason. I don't like that we  are killing them so we can eat, but this is who we are. Yes we don't have to kill that many, but their meat is important for our health. It's sounds sad but if you think about it's not.
I agree with you friend. You are right when you say that maybe we are killing more animals than we need too. But i just wanted to say to you that there is difference between Vegetarian and Vegan. Vegans only eat vegetables and fruit, they don't eat anything that is from animal, not even fish as far as i know. Vegetarians eat fish and eggs and stuff like that, but they don't eat animal meat. Maybe i am wrong, but i think im not.

The mankind will exterminate itself as a result of arrogance and stupidity.

+1. I wouldn't be surprised if a war starts for something very little and everyone would throw everything until nothing remains. Humans...

Like the WW1? That one was started by a single person (Gavrilo Princip, who assassinated Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria). Something similar can trigger the next world war, although I wouldn't bet on it.
World war II began after the German provocations. In the same way, now there is Russia. In General and the ideology of Putin is very similar to the ideology of Hitler. I rather put on something that world war III will begin after the Russian provocations.
I would say that you are wrong on so many levels. Putin to be compared to Hitler? Well friend, you have twisted picture of things. Putin made Russia strong, and russian people love him because of that. Most of people that i know, respect Putin for what he did. I heard only good things about him. So i don't think you can compare Hitler who was mad man from the start, well maybe not mad man, but an ideologist and a fanatic.
1177  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Christianity is Poison on: April 05, 2017, 01:48:56 PM
Most decisions are not dictated by religion, It doesn't take religion to tell someone that murder and stealing is wrong. If you have a conscience and you are in the right frame of mind no one needs to tell you that.

For the ultra-religious, most of their decisions are dictated by their religion. This is applicable to a small part of the 2 billion Christians living in this world, and to the vast majority of the 1.5 billion Muslims who are spread out across the globe.

The thing is that even though you are from the same religion, there are different understandings for different people about the teachings in their religion. If you consider christianity as poison, then it would be right to believe that religion itself is poison as most wars were fought in the name of religion
You are right when you say that in same religion there are different understanding and opinion on same matter. Some wars had been led "for the sake of religion" but most of that was just a stupid reason. In history people led wars for personal gain, and that is it. People will always find "reason" for some thing to do. Its not religion that is bad, its people.

What Are Your Thoughts On Vegans? Or Going Vegan ?

Do you have concerns about animal abuse by eating meat or using animal products?

Do you feel strongly that it is your right to eat meat?
Well i eat meat, and i like eating it, and that is the truth. Lion will always eat gazelle, and that is way things are made. We humans eat animals and that is only natural. If it wasn't for meat, we would not be like we are today (well that didn't turn out best for some xD). But i don't agree with animal abuse, if you need to kill it, than respect it a little bit. Respect what you eat, and be grateful. And as far as going vegan, well i could do it if i had too. But as i said i like eating meat so...

Well Best anti-virus program is debatable. Because best for me doesn't necessarily needs to be best from you. It changes with opinion and experience. I personally use Nod32 and i am most satisfied with how does it perform. I never had any problem with it, and it always guarded me just fine. I would recommend to anyone. Some people say it eats too much of RAM, but i don't agree.
1180  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Renewable Energy on: April 04, 2017, 09:16:10 PM
But can it be too late now? As we know, technology has gone so far that majority of word depends on fossil fuels, so is it too late now to switch to renewable energy? Will the Oil companies allow that?
It seems to me that the proliferation of renewable energy is unstoppable. As much money as spent on the development of these technologies will not allow to stop the movement in that direction. There is no turning back. If you have shares of oil companies it's time to sell them.

Yes that is true, and even solar energy is getting attention now and  day after day, solar panel prices is dropping down. This is good news, so that we can not rely purely on  fossil fuels that destroy our planet. Also wind energy is being utilized. I am also fascinating o some youtube videos about "free energy" but on second thought it might be scam. I hope this research on free energy will be documented properly and can be scaled up for mass production.
The future of fuels is not oil, because there are limited sources of oil and people are starting to see that more clearly. That is why everyday there are more and more wind plants and solar plants. With power plants that we use now, we only make damage to Earth. Future lies in alternative power production, which will be safer and not lethal from people and Earth it self.
