    Best windows web browser?

    I'm pretty sure I'm going to check that out. I'm only afraid my software knowledge may not be that advanced to understand the most of your previous post. Would you like to write a "Emac with GNU for dummies" post? Thanks.

    Hey, hello there. I didn't answered earlier for college keeps me really busy now. If you want to enter a physics major you definitely need a very good math basis. Searching across the internet I found Khan Academy (https://www.khanacademy.org/) Especially focus on the trigonometry and precalc...

    where are we going as a society?

    If I were a blind idealism, I'd definitely be some kind of anarchyst... due to my mysanthropy and cinism, however, I'm just a critical capitalist. If I can tell something about society from my own everday experience on a broken (economical, social and politically speaking) country, is that...

    Why is there 2 ways to write lower case "a"?

    My theory so far (and based on my own handwriting and almost everyone with a high science degree) is that we tend to write in the easiest and faster way possible. Having that said, is obviously easier to write the "a" in a more alpha-looking way than with the fancy gliph above. However, I've...

    Why is there 2 ways to write lower case "a"?

    I was wondering this earlier this morning. When I write the "a" is more like the greek alpha, but almost every font has this elegant fancy-looking "a". Why the difference? Does this have to do with a previous european alphabet or something?

    Psychopathy and Sociopathy - derail from [Is an emotional response necessary to illicit empathy?]

    @Hadoblado I just took the test, scored 56 out of 84. Interestingly, scored 21 in both Maquiavelism and Narcicism. Based on a little internet research, psychopats tend to lie, so, people with high scores shouldn't also show particularly low results? And how objective may indeed taking the test...

    Psychopathy and Sociopathy - derail from [Is an emotional response necessary to illicit empathy?]

    Question for you guys: Have you guys noticed than when we inmediately think of both sociopaths and psychopaths we think in bloody murderers and that kind of stuff? I'm more interested on the "closet" psychopath, the one who hasn't developed yet any killing instinct (or at least not strong...

    recluse style living / hermits

    When I moved to my current apartment (about three years ago) I spend the first two years without any internet connection, I barely survived doing the college stuff on a library (in which I spent like 10 hours a week). I know it's off-topic, but there weren't neither TV or radio signals (except...

    recluse style living / hermits

    Thinking of it, at first you'd say "yes", but what about the psychological consequences of extreme isolation? Madness, perhaps? I'd say I'd like to experience that, but also be able to comunicate with others anytime I wish to (of course it wouldn't be that often, but if you aren't able to do...

    Death

    All right, this may be a little off-topic, but maybe the way of how you think of death will also determinate your life. 2 people with different ideas of death may have completely different lives, don't you think? Then... what should be the "best way" to think of death?

    Posting on different languages?

    Funny, cuz that's one of the reasons I like this forum. When I registered I'd have said that my english was pretty formal (still kind of), but I've learned several slangs from here (which in turn I started to use on posting). I personally live the "tho" thing. It's the kind of things you never...

    Posting on different languages?

    That's what I wanted to do with this thread... except of course I didn't knew about the intpc thing. It's about creating concepts, not the "war" is going on (from which I know little of). Translation is pretty good, altough I'd have said "...may be somewhat difficult to learn for those who are...

    Posting on different languages?

    Si consigues el lugar indicado, practicar español es lo más sencillo del mundo. Personalmente me parece un idioma hermoso, lleno de palabras etimológicamente ricas, prosodias particulares que le dan una mayor variedad, una gramática que si bien puede ser un tanto difícil de aprender para los que...

    What to watch after 'The Mentalist'?

    I finished the series about a month ago (just before college), and I loved it. I've already downloaded it and every now and then watch some random episode. Of course I'd be too busy right now (because of college) to do the same with another series (I watched it on 2 weeks, it was insane), but...

    Posting on different languages?

    I've some spanish posts around there, and this made think of one of that crazy ideas we all have. INTPf is a culturally rich place, I mean, just look the "who's online?" section. What about creating a thread section to celebrate and encourage this diversity? Yeah, "Regional" already exists...
