I decided a few weeks ago to take a break from everything.\u00a0 Web-design, remote support, and most anything that really bothered me (Work).<\/p>\n
I supposed it worked because I no longer have all the shit that was on my mind when I decided to forget it all.\u00a0 I am not trying to figure out what direction to go with my many varied tech interests.\u00a0 Where to start and focus my efforts is the greater question.<\/p>\n
For about another week I can think about this as right now I am in the middle of moving.\u00a0 After that I should have the space and the internet I need to get something rolling.<\/p>\n
While complex technology does not bother me or any advanced user a lot of my time is spent reinventing the configuration and customization wheel.\u00a0 It gets really tasking sometimes.\u00a0 Setting things up over and over again.\u00a0 Things should be easier and more modular.\u00a0 Simple commands, etc.<\/p>\n
I can do anything on a system.\u00a0 Its all about the learning curve though.\u00a0 I can think up incredible ideas and do.\u00a0 I just have a lot of them.\u00a0 I need to narrow down this list and put some energy into a project\/idea\/etc.\u00a0 Something big.\u00a0 Something soon.\u00a0 This project has to be for more then just myself.\u00a0 I have done enough of those to hone my own skills.\u00a0 I have done enough of those period.<\/p>\n
So many new ideas and projects are alive on the internet and across the world.\u00a0 So much is happening and sites\/process have sprung up to enable people and organizations to successfully create new things.<\/p>\n
On that same note it is sad that the same forces that are supposed to protect innovation are enabling companies like Apple to corner the market and stem innovation.\u00a0 Instead of companies competing to make the newest and best tech they now have the power to hold back and wait till they make more then enough money off their products.<\/p>\n
To the laymen the toys that they purchase are magic and incredible to people like you and me we know that they are just proprietary limited junk and could be 1000% better.\u00a0 We spend a majority of our lives getting this shit that they build and sell to do what we want.\u00a0 They fight us at every corner and every bridge.<\/p>\n
The only people that will help us is us.\u00a0 This is why social media and communication technologies are so empowering.\u00a0 Facebook is crap.\u00a0 It is made for the laymen user and designed to employ their time and generate profit.\u00a0 It is insecure and built to collect information for advertisement and profiling.<\/p>\n
The ‘cloud’ is crap.\u00a0 Something like:\u00a0 “lets put all our important private data on super computers which can crack our shit encryption”.\u00a0 Bleh.\u00a0 Past the buzzwords and sales ‘engineers’ is the truth.<\/p>\n
The truth is that it is our job to build and design simple technologies that are secure and reliable.\u00a0 Simple to build and customize.\u00a0 Simple to realize and change with adaptable code that can run on anything and do anything.\u00a0 Linux and open source software is the key and those of us that use it know this.<\/p>\n
So many programming languages.\u00a0 So many hacks built into one OS.\u00a0 The most adaptable OS on the planet.\u00a0 What is stopping its propagation on every desktop?\u00a0 The software built for Windows and Mac.\u00a0 Adobe, Office, Etc.\u00a0 Money and patents changing our bright future into a dim pile of non sense.<\/p>\n
It is not that we are lazy, its is not that we are not trying hard.\u00a0 It is the external forces that influence everything we do.\u00a0 When we group together\u00a0 and build our own custom external forces we give ourselves and everyone around us new self guided direction.
