Evidence.. thats a good question,..,Who makes a claim must supply the proof, in this case where is the proof of the claim (not made by me) "the average IQ of FDR members in 120" (paraphrasing)? Without "evidence" i find such a remark questionable,....wich invited some snear remarks and backpaddling about my typos from Kevin Beal. Very Silly. Maybe its hard to accept for some that FDR members are just "regular folk".

Hi Filip, nice to meet you, and greetings from Luxembourg, Romania is socialist, well thats mostly true for all European countries, And some think Europe is part of the "freedom club".. I guess in some alternate reality this might be true. Anyway...,IN any case you are young so best thing for you is vote with your feet. Switzerland is nice and kindof near libertarian (compared to most countries). Of course there is also singapore and Hongkong. You can also become a Romanian libertarian activist, there is a ludwing von Mises institute in romania http://mises.ro/ maybe hang out with them and see what you can do to promote the cause of liberty in your country.

Nice, I get the feeling the green "blob" is a flyswatter or something..., Could you add a little extra like when 2 fireflies accidently meet they would multiply... or when you hit a fly they turn into flowers or blocks (obstructing other fireflies). maybe a frog/cameleon at the bottom using its tungue to catch the fireflies. I am just brainstorming take everything with a grain of salt and pepper.

"...I for one would have opened my IT business a long time ago if it we didn't have so much governmental bullshit, I'm probably moving to another country in order to start my business. The government is on the way, but I don't see any proposals for dealing with the people who will starve if it's removed..." yeah, we had the same argument against the abolishment of slavery, "if we get rid of slavery who would pick our food?, poor whites would all starve" (sarcasm mode on) yes we need to find a solution for foodpicking and preventing starvation among poor whites this before we abolish slavery.(sarcasm mode off). No proposal is needed to end statist enslavement. If Iraq has the resources, why it's not calling the shots? I think Iraq was invaded some time ago, if i remember correctly,.., also before invasion the State of Iraq was not really serving any foreign power as you clearly suggest here. So again your premise that 3rd world States are exploited by 1st world states (as a general rule) is false. But i guess its easier to blame foreign powers then to reform a marxist economy. Don't know what you mean there. You made the argument racism in brazil comes from the elite, this is totally false, it comes from Brazillians themselves, especially the poor! Oil existed before monkeys walked the earth, so no labor is being stolen from anyone by harvesting these resources. Also if it werent for technology (evil capitalist invention) that black shit would be totally worthless. The "them stealing our resources" is more a marxist argument.

I short in game movie would really promote, and you also need the feedback of what people like and what they dont like.

Sophistry,., you initiated a sneer remark , anyone can see it was a sneer , and instead of apologizing you doubled down. In my opinion a typo here and there is actually not the issue here.Why would me making the remark that (paraphrasing) "the FDR community as a group are average/normal IQ" be an inconvenient opinion for you? Why would this invite this sillyness?I detect more sophistry in the usage of words like "honest", "higher IQ" ,"smarts". Me being factual quoting your own words back is dishonest? How am I forcing people not to decide for themselves over an internet conection?)))) I am putting a virtual gun to their heads?)) I have lower IQ for being factual (=quoting). Love the sophistry.))

For example for my uni. the number of first year students was totally 400 with only 8 females. Females being a distraction?... depends on the person.

Hi Slavic, If this is your wish, maybe you can find online curriculem of say a Bach course in your field and then start reading the required books outlines as to see if this is agreeable with you. Just a thought. At least you will know the length and breath of what someone needs to do if he/she want to persue this in an institution of learning.

Atheism is a mental illness in Nigeria apparently
jacbot replied to Spleanicus's topic in Atheism and Religion
He has already been released...the doctors went on strike! LOL http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-28158813 >>Mr Bala said he now wanted to reconcile with his family who committed him to the hospital in Kano where he says he was held against his will for 18 days. >>But he said he wanted to leave the predominantly Muslim north of Nigeria after receiving death threats. The guy needs to listen to Stef M about DEFOO! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreligion_in_Nigeria >>>A 2010 poll by Pew Research Center showed that 51% of Nigerian Muslims agree with death penalty for leaving Islam.[5] In some parts of Nigeria, there are even apostasy laws.[6 Think will be the same mentality under Christains in Nig. (maybe not the death penalty as punishement but still.). This part I dont fully understand in the link: >>>When this doctor found him to be fit and well, the family are then believed to have taken him to a doctor and asked if he was mentally ill. So...he went along freely to this doctors visit or was this all at gunpoint? -
Predicting the future 50-60 years from now is a waste of time. This violent revolution retoric is getting old.

Wow,..., dont know what to say,...., the story is grewsome. This relationship took me to the lowest crevasse of depression thus far in my life, and has taken hundreds of hours of diligent podcasting, meditation, therapy, and self-work to scale the walls of despair back into normalcy. My goal is to explore the degree of self-knowledge surrounding this particular incident that I have acquired so that I may effectively prevent any remotely similar occurances from taking place in the future. The events in this post primarily occured about one full year ago, with Stefan's much needed intervention into my life taking place not even 3 months ago. My apologies for the lengthy account: Where are you in your life right now? Are you with the gf? Is the dog still in your house? While you are working through this it is best to not put you in a situation that would incur this rage in you.

"Perhaps" not,., as there is no misunderstanding here. My typos in Engish language seemed to be a joking matter as it was connected to my the reply i gave on the IQ about the general FDR community (aka my claim: normal 100 not 120 on average). Thats silly a attempt at trolling, of course he tried to deny it.

HI,.. First I empathise with your situation and it looks like a funny game. Its people become more selfactualized when toxic relationships are dumped. this is very true. Your quote:"...I feel so much more able to do what I set my mind to even if it is challenging..." Very very true,.., People look at external factors like "need college", "apprentership",..., but again it is people like you who show that a bit of a selfstarter can move mountains and get things done. PS: I dont have andriod,.do you have a youtube movie to see the action-motion of your game? I think it would be cool to watch.

Has anyone considered the choice to move to another country
jacbot replied to labmath2's topic in General Messages
The free-eist nations these days are Hong Kong and Singapore,.., -
Is Stefbot vegan or vegetarian? I am looking for the combination of high tech and health food, like super efficient nutrient bars austronauts use. I understand the convinience of "tv dinners" but I just never understood why technology couldnt make these products superhealthy and tasty.

My Brothers reaction to the bomb in the brain series
jacbot replied to Sinatra0124's topic in Self Knowledge
Hi Sinatra0124,.., you have my empathy for your experience, So you recently watched the bomb in the brain series? Edit: What part gave you that aha moment? -
Ok, you can say alot about europe, but this kind of crazy shit from cops you dont get here. I think the worst think happened was a priest and a nun were arrested in Italy because they had sex with each other in car beside a public freeway. Violence on USA tv is ok but showing a nipple is viewed as morally currupting. This morality does not create healthy people.

Javascript programmer needed for Ancap-style game.
jacbot replied to ritherz's topic in General Messages
"Again" is a strange word in this context, it implies repetition, i dont see where I accused you of downvoting to begin with. Dont worry, i am not accusing you of strawmanning. To create a simple game takes the 320 hours minimum (i stated this number previously). I design elec. circuits (power supplies and amplifiers) in my spare time, making games is not my interest right now. Added: "..You can be good at back end programming and be absolutely terrible at front end (and vice versa)..." Weird, that was never my experience or that of my co-workers. -
Ok,, lets go through the paces again., part 1: ", I talk about IQ (reply to a remark not made by you) is just "normal" under FDR followers, not 120 average. .., you connect this statement (=we are all just normal) somehow with MY spelling errors (as I am not native English speaker) . You are making it personal as it is about me and my English language skills. That it may not be personal to you (as you claim), is not relevant. I notice you do change your emotianal center alot even within a reply. This is strange.
-
Sure, English is a foreign langauge to me and I tend to type fast.., Its funny how you turn this into something personal, I guess you ran out of arguments.?

Javascript programmer needed for Ancap-style game.
jacbot replied to ritherz's topic in General Messages
Sure you can, javascript is not rocket science (rocketry isnt a science to begin with but thats something else)...,building the game however...will take some time, that is for sure. Aslo javascript is a language, building software is more then learning a language.. but like the poster said..in the first post.., he is already a skilled programmer. -
I just thought of something. FDR measures the number of downloaded podcasts (no over 60 million total?) How would such metrics be aqcuired in the future with p2p distribution.?

I scored 7, but 1 question was incredibly gender biased. and a lot of more questions should have been on the list. mm,ok. I defood when I was 18 (mother) and 22(father), I was always a minarchist as the social system is totally fucked up, at 34 I became full ancap, after one remark an ancap politician made at me (the famous tax=armed theft argument). I knew about Stef some time ago as his articles are posted on some libertarian websites and news outlets. I like his peacefull parenting for obvious reasons. although it doesnt explain why Sweden (criminalized spanking in 1979) is rampant socialist, maybe more is needed. I dont believe at all that the average IQ above of this community is 120+, (in remark to a previous post) , a lot of conformation biased and planly ignoring fly in the face facts. Endulging themselves in weird conspiracy theories,.., alterntive cancer cures, ...not healthy and not rational attitudes. but thats ok,.. society at large is not much different. I hope to find a lot of selfactualized people,.., those are always fun to hang around with.
