I am as well but in a bit different way I think. I feel the movie did a good job with the general idea but of course lacked the mecha-armor drop ship type component. It would be great to do it in todays graphics. Then I look at like wheel of time and think that anything they make now will be awful and I rather just stick with the somewhat decent one we have.

yeah and its sorta silly to even pretend that there is private ownership of land given property tax and regulations. The truth is the state owns the land that it holds by military might and the citizens rent portions for their needs.

yeah its the same with patent. I often think both should only be given to individuals and entities should not be able to have them.

Thing is that copywrite did serve a purpose and was for like 20 years before disney got it extended to the nth degree. The idea was the authors had a chance to make money but were expected to be prolific enough to have more writings by the time 20 years was over. I would like to see with patents that once you get one you have a limited time to go to market. Maybe 10 years and if you product is ever not available for purchase (at a cost equivalent to the average cost accounted for inflation or something) you lose the patent so others can produce it. So like stop making an attachment for a product and now anyone can.

oh I thought it showed a random foss software. I was thinking I will just stick with osalt and portable apps. I was watchig the eclipse and its a wierd hour so its not giving anything for me looking at it now.

random???

honestly it just does not worry me the way physical clutter does. Just have to keep the important need stuff easy to find but the wants can be cluttered as long as its digital to me.

its just do I need it. Can I do without it. Thats what I think. I try as much as possible to have my wants to be in digital format. games, media, etc.

citizen kane. I mean I get it. If you geek out on cinematography history and the first of doing stuff but its just plain boring.

interesting. its not just about the moon:

“LuGRE’s groundbreaking success opens the door for future NASA Artemis missions and other space explorations to use GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) signals. This means they can accurately figure out their position, speed, and time without human help. It’s a huge leap forward for navigation systems on the Moon and Mars!”

this should be pretty huge. think about the various failed landings and such you have seen in the news.:

“Traditionally, NASA engineers use a combination of onboard sensors and Earth-based tracking signals to track spacecraft. LuGRE’s demonstration shows that GNSS signals can autonomously aid navigation, even at the Moon’s distance.”

so this really changes space exploration as or more significant to the reusable rocket stages.
