"Software Wars" map

Steven Hilton has drawn up a map of "the epic struggle of Free Software against Microsoft". While I don't think that the struggle for Free Software is against Microsoft per se, the map sure is fun to look at.

RIP: Robert Anton Wilson

Robert Anton Wilson, (co-)author of works such as the "Illuminatus" trilogy and "Schrödinger´s Cat", has died yesterday. Here's his last blog post:

 Various medical authorities swarm in and out of here predicting I have
between two days and two months to live. I think they are guessing. I
remain cheerful and unimpressed. I look forward without dogmatic
optimism but without dread. I love you all and I deeply implore you to
keep the lasagna flying.

Please pardon my levity, I don't see how to take death seriously. It seems absurd.

Goodbye, RAW. Thank you for your inspiration. Hail Eris.
