I didn't think a rant was appropriate in What Made/ruined Your Day? so here I go:

fuck facebook, facebook can lick my fucking boots and I'll go next door step into some dog shit beforehand, facebook is a rotten disgusting fucking pile of maggot-infested garbage and is fucking taking internet back. FUCK FACEBOOK! I wish there was a way to type that would be equivalent to screaming into a blow-horn so I could yell at my heart content how much I fucking hate it. You don't want you boss to find out you got a bird tattoo on your ankle? Invent a fucking pseudonym and make sure you never post your face or name while using it. I guess facebook is for dimwits that prefer to turn internet to a semi-private network than use their brain just a bit.

In fact I hate all site that have private pages for things not remotely private. You're scared some pedophile might use your kid picture to alleviate himself? Don't post in on the internet, at all! If you need to go through it, use encrypted emails and make sure the recipient understand that s/he can't transmit it on a public network without your express acknowledgment. You don't want your wife to inspire some random gu

I find revolting those that dislike the practice but just give in because of it's popularity. I wonder who's the spineless asshole that invented the proverb "If you can't beat them join them".

and to that I have to say:



By NOT using Facebook, at this point, you are essentially ostracizing yourself from where society is evolving in terms of connection with other humans. Might as well not have a phone or use the internet at all, or use any form of chat programs. People who think Facebook is "evil" or "bad" or "stupid" just don't see how it's actually useful and an amazing tool for connecting to everyone together and keeping up to date on what everyone is doing.

This is the kind of thinking that lead to decisions like this one: Some years back I had some important government business (income tax, business registration, ...) to do and its system required to install a program which only run on windows then log on the website.

Even if you discard my belief that civil servants get bribe from Microsoft so they keep using a system that switching to Free Software would allow the same quality for the same cost or even less (you'd need additional technical support but there's established GNU/Linus support companies), yeah so don't mind that, what about the users? I suppose that system is supplanted by now by something multi-platform, but it's the government, they're suppose to provide service for the poor as well and those that feel guilty about using pirated software. But if you go back to that time, people didn't know much anything beside Windows and if we all "evolved" into Windows, those kind of practices would have continued.

Anyway the issues is that so many pages are set to private while their content is not really private. Should I create an account and join a group that try to rally people sensitizing people to responsible use of privacy allowing a freer internet?

I was hoping people would just start spewing hatred at whatever they felt like, sometime for not real reason. Leadership -1

I think it is useful and evil at the same time. Just because something brings "good" doesn't mean you have to praise it (all the more since you can find "good" in pretty much anything). It's rather a matter of personal threshold of integrity/ethics/many other points of view about life in general.

Maybe for the same reason that the German govt. recently switched back to Windows-based systems because "Users have [...] complained of missing functionality, a lack of usability and poor interoperability." after having switched over starting back in 2001..

I was hoping people would just start spewing hatred at whatever they felt like, sometime for not real reason.


Well, doing/feeling/saying something without reason is just fucking stupid! What are you, a hormonal 12 year old who can't make up his mind because of all the changes going on in his body and brain chemistry?

People doing things without a good, actual reason is something I hate! I don't care if your oppinion is different than mine on a topic, as long as you have REASON for it and you've actually looked at facts and done thinking on the issue, rather than just following whatever the trendy way of thinking is. People who just do things "without reason" and without actually thinking leads us to things like religiously brainwashed idiots who murder people because "well, the book said so.. so... good enough?"

The key is how you use the tool and not the tool in question.

That video made me think and i see things with another perspective now, that is changing some of my passed reflection

Oh it's totally about how you use a tool! A hammer or nail-gun can be used to build a house, or they can be used as a weapon to kill people. But to refuse to live/go in a house that was made with a hammer or a nail-gun because they're items that could, under the right circumstances and with the right motivation, be used as a weapon, well that's just fucking stupid.

nice metaphor haha, and i totally agree

+ about hating for no reason
I'm pretty good at it, trying to be better now, because i have waste all my teenagers years being angry at stuff without really taking the time to wonder if it was worth it!

hate takes a lot of energy. and that energy you waste to hate stuff will make your head weaker day after day, and i can personally say that a weak mind have a hard time to find happiness, just because it's too tired to even want to be happy!

im no one to talk, because i complain often, but if i might suggest something, for myself and anybody, is to take that energy we put in hating stuff and try instead to put it in stuff we actually enjoy

The thing about facebook is that you can't really dissociate its good and bad effets... it's like HAVING to kill people with your hammer if you accept to live in a house built with a hammer.

So basically.. you are upset because you cannot see something because it's private on facebook? and you wish you could see it? ...
i don't understand people who are mad because of facebook, I mean, if you dont want to join, fine, but why HATE it with such passion? it's not like it cost anything...? if you want to see the stuff that's on facebook, just join. and if you don't care, just get over it?

there was a reason... I also realized it was fun so one could do it without a reason. and what do I care if anyone disagree with what I'm doing in Silly Games, I'd be wasting time in a place aiming those that want to waste time?

do you realize how many people are on facebook? or at least have an account on it? do you also know that most popular websites have almost all their page public? the thing with popularity is it affect the future. the future heads of big websites will likely be faced with privacy ethics and will factor the seemingly careless reaction to a blatant disregard to non-members. my hate is to all websites that condone setting page private to something that isn't even remotely ; yes if just graduted and your parents took a picture of you holding a framed diploma I understand that it would be set to private as otherwise you wouldn't have uploaded. but the issue is the behavior (as I see it) is all pictures are private and the only ones that are made public are those one would be willing to put on your resume ; you know those that you wear business apparels, stern-looking, perfect lighting and planned backdrop. meanwhile everyone share links to that website and let an impression of freedom as it's just another public website, but it really isn't.

just imagine a store where they'd loan special glasses at the entrance to members allowing to see documentation, displays and items and all those that doesn't have those glasses would only see an empty warehouse with some empty pedestal and empty frames, everything white with the exception of the exit sign and perhaps 1, 2 or 3 staple items (those clean-cut pictures and texts (I'm a graduated...)). that store would suck big time and even if you were thinking of joining you'd wonder what would happen if most stores became like that then would restrict membership. but then everyone start talking about it, you see it everywhere, on your favorite websites, on the papers, on radio and television so everyone talk about these items that require those special glasses enticing you more and more to join them and disregard the reason why you don't want to join them in the first place. then people don't even mention the subject of links to that site anymore, they just post links assuming everyone can and want to see those link ; then your ethics doesn't just restrict your choice anymore, it leave you out.

just like many sites don't post pictures of directions anymore, they assume all have broadband and just embed the map, sometime not even stating addresses. I understand I have to live with gaping holes in websites because I block Javascript (and flash) so that is a choice. but if I only had dial-up or a 1024 x 768 display (when sites assume 1280 x 1024), it wouldn't be a choice.

I more than disagree with their policies, I hate them. I'm not debating whether or not I'm hating the site, you can dismiss my opinion but you won't change my mind unless they start condemning their loose privacy practices or people mobilize themselves (HAHAHAHAHA, only free junk food or crap products seem to do that anymore).

screwhead too bad if you think I'm a paranoid problem-searcher (lacking a better term).

Rather than just essentially type out this whole video...



And I'd like to add slow people to that list. I'm 6'2", I have a long stride, and I walk fast. When there's someone slow, in front of me and no room/place for me to cut around them, I just want to fucking murder them! The elderly, children, groups of people, and people talking on cell phones while walking drive me nuts. Sometimes I feel like side walks are small battle grounds. I especially hate it when I'm walking in one direction by myself, and you have a group of 2 or more people walking in the opposite direction and none of them have the sense to move over. I feel like ramming into them. To me it's common sense that if you are walking side by side as a group, that you go single file when walking past someone else.
