Today I completed a lap running around the park.

It is being under DDoS attack for a while now.
It is always the same idea: the Internet just mirrors people who use it.

I am reading some MS comments about coming Windows 8.
They are openly saying that the focus is on devices that people use for "reading and socializing" instead of "creating and writing", then the focus won't be on doing things but on "people". Now, this reflects another thing I have read "You can lounge on the couch enjoying a beautiful, fluid experience, doing the things you love to do on a tablet: playing games, socializing, browsing the web, reading, touching up photos, watching TV".

Conclusions:
1. traditional personal computers are at their end because they are (too) powerful tools invented to empower people to do basically everything they wanted, from writing a book or post-produce a movie to design a skyscraper or do astrophysics. Please pay attention on the "to do" part.
2. people are too stupid to use personal computers, basically they are teenagers with nothing in their mind other than message friends about rumors and parties, snap pictures of people with sticking out tongues and pay per view whatever entertainment while "lounging". Then smartphones and tablets.
3. Windows 8 aims to be the OS that runs on/across all the non-PC devices, having the "PC mode" only as "fallback mode" for the few asocial users who don't "lounge" with "a beautiful, fluid experience" and insist on doing meaningful things instead of focusing on "people".

All this was already obvious from other clues, for example the fact that Gnome 3 was designed to make it difficult to run multiple applications in the same time, centered on "activities" instead and sized for touch screen on small size displays. So this view of the future does not come from Microsoft, seems to be "common sense" among some groups.

A bomb was placed near the entrance of a school in Brindisi. It exploded right at the time the students were going in this morning and killed a 16 years old girl, Melissa Bassi, severely wounding other seven.

So due to this medical condition I was told by the doctor I had to take meds but being old school I suggested I could try with a diet and come back with new blood test. I then followed this simple diet: eggs, milk and derivatives, pork, beef, abolished. Any processed food, abolished. Pasta, rice, vegetables, fruits, fish, chicken and turkey, permitted. This lowered my total cholesterol count of 84 points in about three months. I came back to the doctor but she wasn't happy with the blood test yet. So I proposed to go back training to reset the body metabolism (I quit any sport more than ten years ago) and meanwhile to take a natural dietary supplement that should help in further lowering some values. So starting from Tuesday 15 May 2012 old Rocky is back running up and down the stairs and punching meat in the refrigerator. Will he succeed? Coming soon on this blog.

And this is the sound track:
