If you believe you are a certain way, you will be treated that way. Change your own perception and you change (your) world.
By focusing on what you dont like, you are living the reality you dont like.
I love all girls in tech by the way. Without them, office would be very boring. Some are pretty, some are cool, some are annoying. Because they are people, and thats what people are.

Sounds like you have been looking very much outside yourself when you should look inside instead. You seem focused on intelligence, IQ, and knowledge. All of those are likely to make you more depressed since you are not meant to be a robot. :)
Hope this helps :)

If it doesnt, then I guess US providers are fine. Otherwise I would pick another country where the government cant simply tell your ISP to give them your data.

If privacy is dead, why do organizations keep secrets from their staff? Why doesnt the public have full insight into everything the government and the military does? Why are there secrets?
How come we cant see the people who watch us on the streets, but they can see us?
Who watches the watchers?

The only problem is that inferno is too difficult at the moment. Patch 1.03 will adjust the monster damage by about 25%. Right now, you cant kill elites with a melee character. In fact, you die to normal mobs very often because of their huge damage output. So people stay on Hell and play that content instead, which is not really intended. Inferno is supposed to be hard but doable, not impossible. Right now only ranged characters with the best gear can play that difficulty level.
Overall, I love the game and will play it for many more weeks or even months. I will never use the real money AH though. :)

The problem is combining that desire with capitalism where someone wants to get rich from your ideas, and with a minimum of costs.
Googles most successful products such as Gmail and the search engine was created as small, experimental products, born from the brains of people who were NOT under strict deadlines and pressure to perform. The brain works much better under those conditions, and so does creativity and thinking outside the box.
Today we see the influence of managers and bosses in the way Google ignores privacy. That was probably never part of the vision the product creators had when they put their products together.

Because despite all human hubris, we are pretty much in the dark ages. When we have learned how to sustain ourselves without raping the planet, then maybe we can at least be called civilized. Although still a very primitive species.
Humans dont like viewing themselves as primitive and limited, but we very much are. We are unaware of the alien species constantly being around us, we think 90% of the DNA is "junk" because we dont understand what it does, we call space "empty" because we dont see whats there, etc.
Its all very much based on hubris and ego. Very very primitive. I often feel like Im watching a society that is completely nuts. Valuing paper more than the planet that is giving us life every second of every day (!).
Ok, rant over... its just mind boggling...

France does major demonstrations all the time, blocking access to streets and buildings... in USA, the police would shoot them and treat them as criminals. Just trying to make the point that people SHOULD create trouble when they are not happy.
France is way more free than America so thats why I brought it up.

You have music pouring out of every speaker on earth. Its kind of hard to ask for money for that. Its like selling sand in Sahara.
I can honestly tell you that if all the record companies would die over night, I wouldnt even care one bit. The artists would find other ways to get together and put out their music, and without getting screwed.

I usually find a way to make things work by going outside the protocols and just fixing the problems. Its not the problem that is hard, its the stupid damn protocols and official ways of doing things that makes it very hard to get something done.
Decisions being made by idiots who have no clue how to allow people to work in a efficient manner, or how much money they lose by people sitting around doing nothing, waiting for some useless step in a useless process.
Seriously, I can feel the rage coming just thinking about it while writing this! What the fuck happened to this industry...

Its a very scary place. I dont even go there as a tourist because they have a legal right to throw anyone in jail without trial if they want to.
That being said, ordinary people are very friendly. But the government and the police are scary as hell. Totally dark forces going on there.

At least 1.
I would go for Netherlands VPN's. They have strong privacy, very fast networks and no gestapo government.
