yeah apple is among the worst, but every adman out there now is either waging psychological warfare or getting his lunch eaten by the competition
you know shit's getting bad when ad firms are hiring more psych majors than comms majors

"Designed in California By Apple" It basically means they never did proper test with newer technologies until the customers tested and they will make a patch.

If groups of artists on YouTube can make hollywood-quality material in their free time, then someone has to be fiddling the books somewhere

in 20 years, all information is going to have to be free. Songs, movies, pictures.. its impractical to think otherwise

We're going to undergo a major paradigm shift as a society when it comes to our perspective on ownership.

that's not going to happen. what's going to happen is they will develop systems to deliver content via telepathy, and Big Content will charge you whenever you remember something they own. All storage media from vinyl to paper to flash memory will become illegal to own, and rom dealers will outnumber drug dealers in prison 10-to-1. This is our reality by 2040 at the latest.

Corporate psychoanalysis is ugly, dark, and creepy. I can't believe people even fall for ad tactics still; I thought they stopped being effective some time in the 90s

The entertainment industry is dying, or at least changing, and they're clinging on for dear life by any means necessary, resorting to the ugliest of practices: subliminal advertising -- getting real fucking gritty on a psychological level

You could say that hollywood forks out millions of dollars to make its movies, and it needs to make that money back, but if you really think about it -- where are those millions of dollars going to?

The sets don't cost money anymore - it's all CGI now, and all the CGI shit is software based and hence information-based and therefore a false scarcity and couldnt possibly cost millions of dollars.
It's keeping the industry employed - that's the only thing that costs millions of dollars. Greedy actors; greedy fuckin everything.

In the future, all movies are going to come from the underground. That's just how it's going to be.
This gimmicky 3D shit isn't going to save Hollywood

And there's no money left in originality. The studios still receive and throw away dozens of original screenplays every day in favor of their "tried and true" models like Spy Kids 6, or Citizen Kane 3D. That's why 9/10 releases are either sequels, remakes, and adaptations. Same with music. It doesn't matter how good your material is, it will never be as appetizing to some faggot record producer as some asshole's dubstep remake of the postrock remix of "Hit Me Baby One More Time"

[blumpkin blownuts]

At least there's still a lot of potential for originality in video games. Not surprisingly, games lose much less profit to piracy than movies and music.

we almost need to ban corporate psychoanalysis outright;
they're using bullshit reasoning (stop the terrorists, yarrr!) to uncover and unearth some of the most sacred and detrimental knowledge concerning the human mind. The human mind is a dynamic system; at the end of the day, the causal science behind our cognition is simple enough that simple technology exists which is capable of enslaving the human mind; they just need to finish putting together the puzzle of cognition and once they do, we're fucked.

And they're well on their way; they're already much farther in their research than I ever anticipated they'd get -- they're currently able to identify what a person is thinking by looking for activity in associated regions - and they can do this from a reasonable distance without the individual being examined having to be hooked up to any sort of apparatus or anything. The only catch at the moment is they need to know what they're looking for. For example, if they're trying to stop a terrorist at an airport or something, they can scan people's brains who are having excessive activity in the region of the brain where the concept of "bomb" is stored.

Its still in the development stage, but they've accomplished that so far. They still haven't cracked the code of cognition though yet; pray they never do.

I think the anecdote, "A broken clock is still right twice a day" applies nicely.

The Boston Marathon bombing proved something to us about the "terrorists"; the only thing stopping them is not whether or not we are prepared for them, but simply whether they are willing.

There isn't any serious threat posed to national security and there never has been. Even on 9/11, a few thousand deaths is almost negligible compared to the amount of deaths happening every day from causes we inflict upon ourselves -- and those deaths on 9/11 are also nothing compared to the millions of deaths in the wars that followed.

It sucks p bad but i just recite the Serentity Prayer and then i'm free

[Plug Drugs]

i rationalize it away by telling myself it isn't happening or isn't as bad as it seems, because if it is as bad as it seems, there's nothing I can do about it

[blumpkin blownuts]

that's kinda what the prayer says
