In the last resort, the conservative position rests on the belief that in any society there are recognizably superior persons whose inherited standards and values and position ought to be protected and who should have a greater influence on public affairs than others.
-- Friedrich Hayek (Why I Am Not a Conservative)
The most likely way for the world to be destroyed, most experts agree, is by accident. That's where we come in; we're computer professionals. We cause accidents.

The elegance, we can fairly say the beauty, of any particular scientific generalization is measured by its simplicity relative to the number of phenomena it can explain.
-- Edward O. Wilson
At the end of reasons comes persuasion.

We enjoy all the achievements of modern civilization ... yet we do not know exactly what to do with ourselves.
-- Vaclav Havel
To lengthen thy life, lessen thy meals.
-- Benjamin Franklin
Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.
-- Octavia E. Butler

Tanto per fare altri danni, mi sono iscritto (*) anche su #pixelfed.art e via via posto dei lavoretti che ho fatto. Non ho ancora capito coma fare a "girare" qui le cose che ho "là", non riesco a trovare il link da copiare e poi cmq qui i link non li prendono.

I was alone on this beach on a dark grey evening. Maybe I have a warped mind, but for a split second, I thought this driftwood was burnt human remains of a person laying back on their elbows on the sand

View from the coastal section of Redwood National and State Parks. Seemingly overnight the driftwood has been washed away. Many stretches of the beach are now covered with rocks, not sand.

Woooh!
100 year old trade barriers finally coming down.
Not just pulling US alcohol off the shelf, replacing it with Canadian!
I'm shipping my family in #BC some #Quebec sour beer while its still exotic.
Personally I'm looking forward to grabbing some #Driftwood from #BC and #Propeller from #NovaScotia.
