Ness's Travelogue (2014-04-10 17:00:04) :
Seriously, I saw a mounted ankylosaur skeleton whose proportions (minus tail) were almost perfect for an Okse: [i]Peloroplites cedrimontanus[/i]. Haven't checked if there's anything on it online, though.
Then I didn't realize my gas was low and had to walk a mile back to the gas station >.> The uphill part was the easier, though...I'll never believe those uphill both ways people again!

Give it time... in a century or two, perhaps, copylefted works will show their real value in providing windows onto history where others do not.
The history books may be written by the victors... but only with the source material they have access to!

Bit of a trial by fire as far as driving a 3 ton truck...and dealing with road grades in one...and not having cruise control xD

[box]Wow...I'd just crossed from the Jicarilla Apache reservation onto Navajo land...I crested a small hill (note that I'm 7000 ft up still) and saw a mountain range...capped with snow. I started crying. I hadn't realized quite how much I've missed seeing mountains...I'm incredibly happy right now :D[/box]
The above was written about 4 hours ago (2100 GMT, if I'm remembering MDT right), couldn't post it until just now.

Justiceburg sounds pretty show-stoppingly follysome. Also, generic remark about Albuquerque and Breaking Bad.

the interior monologue was one of the great new techniques in literature of the early 20th century
perhaps the interior travelogue could be the innovation of this century???

Ness's Travelogue :
Just a gathering of things I've seen and feel worthy of note. If you don't like my choices, don't read them ^__^
First up, I found Eden ( http://www.edentexas.com/ , apparently I can't type pipes properly :/ ). It's a dump. And I only saw animals outside of its boundaries, so I think something's up.
A couple hours later, I drove by the FORT JUSTICE RANCH. I thought this was just one person's folly until I passed through the town of Justiceburg a minute or two later.
A nap and a ...

Copyright question (Little Prince) (2014-04-07 12:03:07) :
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Little_Prince#Extension_of_copyrights_in_France|Long story short: the author died during WW2, so no.] An extra 30 years applies to the original French copyright. (Also, it was in July, so even then, you'd have to wait a few months.)

Copyright question (Little Prince) :
De Saint-Exupéry's [i]Le petit prince[/i] should be out of copyright in Germany this year (author's death + 70 years: 1944 + 70 = 2014). I am currently working on translating the first few chapters of it into my conlang, and the illustrations of course go closely hand-in-hand with the text. Can I legally scan the respective illustrations from the book, or is that potentially Problematic?

[quote Pthagnar]how come they don't fall into a death spiral when they fuck the robot waifus? is it because some physiological component is missing, [like it involves genetic interchange], or is it psychological [and so surely this means some desire is not being met by the waifu??].[/quote]
It's physiological. They're hermaphrodites with a symmetric mating process, resulting in both parents carrying young; this transition is what starts the fast-track death clock.

Meet the Peseneyi (2014-04-05 23:21:05) :
The idea so far is that all nouns will be phenomena—a person is merely a gerund of an existence verb that also constitutes their name. The main attraction will be inventing mappings between verbal features and noun features—e.g. specificity might be equivalent a gnomic aspect, and a dead person might be described as having perfective or perfect aspect, or even past-tense. I think there's a lot of potential for expressing some very unique epistemology through the development of such a mapping....
