The Internet is abuzz today after Bill Gates published an image on his Facebook page and a link towards his website with the text "15 years from now, most people in poor countries will be able to take classes online." It's a sound goal and it's perfectly doable, but in the image posted on Facebook the operating system is Ubuntu.
As a former Microsoft CEO and the founder of what we call today Windows, you might think that he would pay a little more attention towards his message, but this particular detail has slipped past the radar of the ones posting on Facebook, unless he did that himself, which would be even funnier.

I dunno about him, but when I read your posts in this thread my eyes glaze over. They seem meaningless and random. I'm sure it makes sense to you, but at best the coherency and topicality are quite low.

Sometimes I suspect that he wouldn't pass a turing test himself, despite his incoherent ramblings about bots and trolls. Whatever, I'm done with this thread. Sorry to drag things off topic.

there are some who complain about the state of others contribution.
I simply picked some topics, and some angle from which I presented them.
Now to the questions:
1. do you have an ontopic answer to my contribution
2. does any of you think that I am actually stupid?
let us engage in this debate

Get help. Just go to the VA and tell them you need help.

on this forum, the important part is, when you see ramblings about evolution and killing, that you all ask yourself, how much protection do I need, who protects me, and are they doing it for anything else then "the game" itself, nowdays...
so when you enter a "combat" with more than 50% of winning, it is called domestic violence, or bullying...
but those who enter combat in situations they know the win is lesser then 50%, many times by a lot, have special minds... you see, there are mechanism in the brain, that "unlink" the self from, well, itself, and the person can not "perceive" or "feel" the self anymore, because, well, there is no self left to feel... these mechanisms unlink others also from the mind, so they can locate others, but cant feel them anymore...
as it is said, when you kill someone with your bare hands, and as life slips, the other guy gives up, and for a short while before he dies, you can feel, he is no one, just a dude in the universe...
I do not need help, neither protection...
It is you who need both...
So ask yourself, how much of it and from whom, do you need?

Oh, you need help alright. This is the problem with PTSD, and insanity in general, you are always the last to know. Go talk to the shrink at the VA. There is no shame, just get help.
