Awe inspiring awareness like that is uncontrovertible.

If you have a solar panel, and two surviving laptops you could make an internet between your house and the neighbors, and you could make an E-box and leave messages for dinner invitations after you finish plowing the fields.

Years ago, to meet the Queen of England, you had to have a 13 week training course in etiquete.

Why? A mistatement could put her in the hot seat with international repercussions, making war inevitable.

nowadays, who cares, nuke them till they glow

Arguing whether the internet should spread further couldn't be more absurd on the precipice of global die-off and TEOTWAWKI. Not to mention there's something seriously amiss when your spiritual life is dependent on computers.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('anagami', 'I')'m anti-war anyway, but communicating with people from around the world makes the willingness to nuke them much less likely.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('anagami', 'T')hanks. I think the base of this arrogant ideas and jokes comes from the ignorance of dividing the world in "undeveloped" and "developed".

Costa Rica has a better public services, in general, than USA. From potable water (although this days there was a failure) to medical services. Also, it has more than 80% of electrical generation and doesn't delude itself with the God of War (as the USA).

I've gone on record to opine that global markets will collapse in "September." Just to clarify: this could mean that US markets will collapse in August, and that the global market collapse / meltdown won't actually culminate until September.

There are people who think that the oil market will collapse in August and September too. I really have no idea what will happen.

I think the longer term trend for oil is up and up. The stock market is for the bulls and the bears. Us pigs get slaughtered either way, whether the market goes up or down.

I can't see it getting all that much worse. It's already down something like 20% from it's high. The stock market is no place for regular people to make money any more.

I'm putting my money (if I ever get any) in real things from here on out. At least you can use them.

Networks can be mantained as long as possible. The Internet was invented to survival nuclear wars after all. Wireless mesh networks using p2p protocols and open source software enhanced locally are quite promising.

One of the difficulties here is defining the object; i.e., how long do we have UNTIL WHAT? I have trouble with that myself. I guess the answer would be, Until the bad external trends have a sufficiently stinging personal impact, beyond some threshold that I won't recognize until I cross it.
