General Discussion / Re: Thrive Documentary: Everyone should watch!
« Last post by orey66 on November 23, 2011, 05:53:39 AM »
Zeitgeist Addendum is probably the best documentary I ever watched. Thank you soo much for posting this up. I think I watched a documentary similar to this but it was not as good as Zeitgeist Addendum, especially when they mentioned geothermal power and how there is 13,000 ZJ in the earth alone, with over 2000 ZJ of which are extractable. It definitely provides reliable, and renewable source of electricity...

The Venus Project is very much a possibility, but it can only happen if people come out of their norms and support the resource based economy and diminishing the current corrupt monetary system.


On another note, I am concerned about the education of our young bright minds of today in a resource based economy. If there is no incentive to find work after education then what is the point. I am not defending the monetary system, but if we want the resource based economy to work, we have to think about all the different areas that will affect our lives including work and education.

The only way education can contribute to the resource based economy is to help and preserver the environment and coming up with new technology concepts that is both friendly to the environment and productive. This will all be voluntary of course, as money or trading will not exist.

Incentives and civilization are the main areas that will change and transform the society in to being free from everything, having high quality life, free from debts and not seeing anything with price tags. Although this ideology sounds promising, there will still be scarcity of resources rather than money. Millions of years from today, wouldn't resources run out ?? And if they do run out, Won't we fall back in to the situation we were to begin with....Back to the corrupt world of greed in terms of trading resources in exchange for other resources or depriving resources from others because there is a fear that it will all come to an end??  

I think in all faces of life, we will face scarcity one way or another. However I do respect the idea of renewable energy and how it could provide a healthy environment, but I think this will be fortunate for those who benefit from it at the beginning, for when there is enough resources to go around but unfortunate for those later on in the days when it does run out.

Jacque Fresco also mentioned that the resource based economy will not have military force, navis, prisons or any weapons of mass destruction. If a crime does happen or a conflict does occur, if there are no laws or regulations, how will you deal with individuals who for example murder, molest under age children or even create stories between two countries and cause conflict. What are the implications of this within a resouce based economy if there are no prisons?? How will you defend yourself if someone else has a weapon and you don't ?... I guess this question will be directed to the man himself but its also open for any suggestions.

Glad you benefited from it. Another good documentary is:
Zeitgeist Addendum

Control someone's money, and you control them. Thats the idea. With the right technology, we wont rely on trade or money as much, and they will have less power. That's why I focus so much on energy research.

Who gave them this power? One of my favorite quotes is "all that is necessarily for evil men to triumph is for good men to do nothing."

Absolutely unbelievable!! I actually watched the whole video and it just opened up my eyes to everything and the universe itself.

These central banks won't stop at anything...They control how we live our lives. Its true that when they said "No matter where you go in the world, the money is controlled by the banking system". Now that they have all that money can buy, they want global domination. It really is sickening how these corporations operate. The interest rate dilemma has been going on for as long as I can remember and it is no random incident at all...It all comes down to one purpose....and thats increasing wealth for these so-called "Government Banks" (Which in fact are privately owned) while others go in bankruptcy... Who gave these people this kind of power ? the power to print money and colonise peoples livess.

Suppressing cures is another discussion that really made me sick to my stomach. These Pharmaceutical companies have no morals. Its all about the money to them. I can't believe this is happening to the world.

Yes no problem with that stuff.

Another person who is perceived as too wacky is Alex Jones. He comes across as fanatical and it turns a lot of people the wrong way. To many of the people he needs to reach, he does more damage than good, whether or not his information is accurate.

Yeah, he is a bit 'out there', but the premise of what he's saying is normally sound. Like how we perceive things to be solid (which you touched upon in the primordials).

I prefer his stuff on 9/11, WW3, world government, vaccines, etc.

David is one of many. But I believe he approaches some of what he has to say in the wrong way - in a way that makes people consider him a crackpot. I do believe he takes some things too far, but I wouldnt say some of what he claims is at all impossible.

General Discussion / Stop Internet Censorship - URGENT
« Last post by Steve on November 21, 2011, 12:24:29 PM »
Right now, the US Congress is debating a law that would give them the power to censor the world's Internet -- creating a blacklist that could target YouTube, WikiLeaks and even groups like Avaaz!

Under the new law, the US could force Internet providers to block any website on suspicion of violating copyright or trademark legislation, or even failing to sufficiently police their users' activities. And, because so much of the Internet's hosts and hardware are located in the US, their blacklist would clamp down on the free web for all of us.

The vote could happen any day now, but we can help stop this -- champions in Congress want to preserve free speech and tell us that an international outcry would strengthen their hand. Let’s urgently raise our voices from every corner of the world and build an unprecedented global petition calling on US decision makers to reject the bill and stop Internet censorship. Click below to sign and then forward as widely as possible -- our message will be delivered directly to key members of the US Congress ahead of the crucial vote:

http://www.avaaz.org/en/save_the_internet/?tta

For years, the US government has condemned countries like China and Iran for their clampdown on Internet use. But now, the impact of America's new censorship laws could be far worse - effectively blocking sites to every Internet user across the globe.

Last year, a similar Internet censorship bill was killed before reaching the US Senate floor, but it has now been refashioned and is back on the table. The new draft grants the government and big corporations enormous powers to force ISPs and search engines to prevent access to sites blacklisted because of allegations of online infringement. But the bill goes even further, also targeting service providers for not doing enough to track and enforce infringement rules, or for providing tools to help US Internet users access sites on the blacklist. Any website can be blocked by the order of a federal judge, without even being found guilty of any crime.

US free speech advocates have already raised the alarm, and some key senators are trying to gather enough support to stop this dangerous bill. We have no time to lose. Let's stand with them to ensure American lawmakers preserve the right to a free and open Internet as an essential way for people around the world to exchange ideas, share communication and work collectively to build the world we want. Sign below to stop the US Internet Blacklist:

http://www.avaaz.org/en/save_the_internet/?tta

In the past months, from the Arab Spring to the global Occupy Movement, we've seen first hand how the Internet can galvanize, unify and change the world. Now we can stop this new attack on Internet freedom if we stand together. We've done it before. In Brazil and Italy, Avaaz members have won major victories in the right for a free Internet. Let's galvanize our global web community and crush the most powerful censorship threat that the Internet has ever seen.

With hope,

Luis, Dalia, Diego, Emma, Ricken, Aaron, Antonia, Benjamin and the rest of the Avaaz team

Are you a fan of David Icke, Steve?

I've been following his work for years. Can't wait to watch this.

The following was first posted by Pactole from RF. I don't often recommend watching documentaries but when I do, they are worth it:

Here's a new documentary that came out on 11.11.11
called  THRIVE: What On Earth Will It Take?

You can watch the trailer here: (Official Trailer) THRIVE: What On Earth Will It Take?


The full THRIVE documentary at any of below links:
THRIVE: What On Earth Will It Take?! (Full Documentary) MAKE THIS GO VIRAL
Thrive - The Movie...
Thrive - What On Earth Will It Take - 2011
http://lovedocumentaries.com/best/thrive-what-on-earth-will-it-take-documentary

The Thrive Movement (thrivemovement.com) has produced the most comprehensive and complete video I have found of our world’s entire global situation–both our problems and their solutions. The subject range covered is vast and its presentation is concise, addressing world control mechanisms of energy, finance, education, health, food, media, scarcity, fractal banking, the military industrial complex, alien visitation, the NWO, and their surprisingly direct and simple solutions.

The range of contributors in the following film is broad, including G. Edward Griffin, David Icke, Steven Greer, James Gilliland, Deepak Chopra, Amy Goodman, Vandana Shiva, and many more.

THRIVE is an unconventional documentary that lifts the veil on what’s REALLY going on in our world by following the money upstream — uncovering the global consolidation of power in nearly every aspect of our lives. Weaving together breakthroughs in science, consciousness and activism, THRIVE offers real solutions, empowering us with unprecedented and bold strategies for reclaiming our lives and our future.

Main Roulette Board / Re: New AUTOMATED Roulette Computer
« Last post by Steve on November 15, 2011, 10:48:31 AM »
Overall we are about 50% complete. We tweaked some of the reacquisition algorithms - this is where the wheel is not in the video (if the camera wearer turns away), then the hybrid needs to determine where it is again. A video of this component in action is at:

www.hybridroulettecomputer.com/reacq.wmv

In this video, the left part shows the live video (in this case, just a video file). The top right shows what is being tracked. The bottom right shows the wheel being tracked in real-time.

During the video I click "Restart" to show reacquisition of the wheel. It is 100% reliable now. The end product will be able to track the wheel, ball and green zero even if the camera wearer does cartwheels, literally. The work achieved so far is military grade.

There is a lot more that is done that I wont show publicly. But I'm very happy with progress. Completion may be in roughly a month (although it is difficult to say for sure), but then we'll need to thoroughly test everything and tweak for improvements.
