    What do you know about Ubuntu?

    For someone who is hooked into AOL, linux would not be a good choice to move to. Apart from that Linux isn't for everyone because the technical support for linux comes from everywhere, and not just one company. If you are uncomfortable digging around the underbelly of a computer "windows...

    What do you know about Ubuntu?

    If you're coming from windows and going to ubuntu, all the necessary stuff will be there, but the luxuries will be different. Also, it'll be like moving from an english speaking country to a european country. You have a vague notion of what things are but need time to figure stuff out. I've...

    A life of hedonism

    hedonism has this curious effect of being without depression or anxiety. The reason behind it is that if you live for pleasure, you live for right now, the present, and this is important. Depression is being stuck in the past and anxiety is being stuck in the future. And while making plans is a...

    What evidence do athiests need to believe in God?

    The burden of proof lies with the ones who claim that god exists. and the ones who say that 'The God ' exists are misled and mistaken. Basically, the King James version of the bible has italicized words in the translation denoting translation differences* rather than emphasis*. "I am a...

    Why I No Long Believe

    One must understand that the church and monasteries were originally designed for people who didn't want to goto church and monasteries. So all these elaborate rituals and procedures were made so that it would waken up or engage the unwilling participant. This is the complete opposite paradigm...

    Vegetarians and meat-eaters

    In my view, if you're choosy about foods, then you're choosy about people. I can't date anyone who won't give foods a good try first before the thumbs down. "Tell me what you eat, I’ll tell you who you are." ~Anthelme Brillat-Savarin / Iron Chef

    Anyone studying psychology?

    I study as a hobby. Basically, I ask dumb questions and try to answer them myself. these days, the question is : "Is an ego-less, present minded state devoid of higher brain cognition. What are the similarities of misguided anarchism, libertarianism, flow, Zen and Dao" Useless stuff like this.

    Although I studied enneagram in the past, I wrote my signature after noticing common elements in eastern philosophy, alternative psychiatry, religions and politics.

    Guilty about being single

    I think secretly, married people want others to be married such that they have someone to share the pain with. A sort of "fresh meat" in a county prison.

    Guilty about being single

    Try not to worry about it. I like being single and giving serious thought into poly life. Mainly because a dual income household in my part of the globe is nearing the poverty line (NY). So naturally, there needs to be a poly income house. But more than this, I tried to find the basis of this...

    How can I gain an INFJ's forgiveness after fucking up in a major way?

    Yes, but you see, he/she must go through this as you have. The insight here is that the more you try to repair the relationship, the further you will push the relationship in the wrong direction. If you friend hasn't done this forgiveness as in the vid, the more you will remind him/her of the...

    What Are Your Truths?

    We are creative enough to come up with absolute truths and we are creative enough to disprove these absolute truths. The only question here is the shelf life of a particular truth.

    How can I gain an INFJ's forgiveness after fucking up in a major way?

    Alternative view of forgiveness. Forgiveness isn't for the other's sake nor does it transfer between others. It always comes from the self for one self. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nN_G3nU778s
