Now They Can Hack into Your Brain?

Well, according to this news report ( http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3722558/Hackers-inside-BRAIN-Experts-warn-growing-threat-monitoring-controlling-neural-signals.html ), it’s true: hackers can get inside your head and get at all kinds of stuff that you would rather keep secret, from your PIN number to your sexual temptations.

The catch is, in order for them to hack your brain, you have to help them out by putting on some kind of “wearable,” or a cap with electrodes. You can get one of these–it’s used by video gamers who are too lazy to manipulate a mouse or a joystick–for just $300: “to control games.”

But the real game is on you, kimosabe, and you’re the pawn.

In the meantime, “ye shall be as gods,” just like the Serpent in the Garden promised.

Well… some more than others. It depends on who’s at what end of the electrodes.

Robots Being Designed ‘to Hunt Prey’

In the 1932 movie classic, The Most Dangerous Game, a homicidal madman gets his thrills hunting human beings.

In a little science project underway at the University of Zurich, scientists–heh-heh–are trying to design robots “to hunt prey” ( https://www.engadget.com/2016/07/05/robots-hunt-prey/ ).

Oh, they assure us that this new technology will only be used for thoroughly benign and constructive purposes, while at the same time really souping up our knowledge of robotics. Do you believe that? I don’t.

Imagine a gaggle of super-rich Davos types getting together to see whose robot will be the first to pounce on a Climate Change denier.

What does that say about our times, that this is not at all difficult to imagine?

For the time being, let’s take a little peek back into the history of science fiction: Isaac Asimov’s “Three Laws of Robotics,” which for many years set the standard for robot stories.

One) A robot must not, through any action or inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

Two) A robot must obey any and all commands given to it by a human being, except where such commands would conflict with the First Law.

Three) A robot must do anything necessary for self-preservation, except where such action or inaction would conflict with either or both of the first two Laws.

I don’t think they’re gonna build those laws into the system–do you?

Oh, Boy! Science Finds a Way to Implant False ‘Knowledge’

Science fiction movies often anticipate real life. Remember this one, from 1990? In which scientists have learned how to fill your brain with memories of things that never happened…

A lot of people know a lot of things that just ain’t so. This has always been true. We devote billions of dollars’ worth of public education to teach people things that aren’t true.

But now scientists–I use the term loosely–at Brown University may have found a way to do this quickly and easily, without having you spend years in a classroom or hundreds of hours watching TV news ( http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3674896/Is-real-life-Inception-Scientists-trick-people-seeing-colours-not-really-there.html ).

“The scientists have discovered a way to implant associations in people’s brains without the subjects being aware of it happening,” reports The Daily Mail.

Isn’t it wonderful? To quote from the news report, “The people taking part [in the experiment] thought they were seeing the color red when looking at black and white stripes, and had no idea this was happening.”

What a boon for our permanent ruling class. Imagine lording it over a whole population that “knows” only what you stuff into their defenseless brains.

Hmm… sounds kind of like college, doesn’t it?

How high will God let these people grow before He cuts them down?

When Irresistible Humbug Meets Immovable Crapola

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

One more news story for today, and then I’ve got to go wrap my head in duct tape before it explodes.

The National Science Foundation has spent more than $400,000 for a “scientific paper” by a loony professor at the University of Oregon, in which persons who study melting glaciers are exhorted to take “a feminist political ecology and feminist postcolonial approach” to the scientific study of glacial melt ( http://blurbrain.com/400k-study-global-warming-feminism-glaciers/ ).

What does any of that garbage mean?

It means we, the stupid taxpayers, are out the money.

Go ahead, I dare you–tell me “This is science” and try to defend it.

We’re Doomed! Says Science Big Shot

Scientists are nothing if not resourceful. Where there’s a will, there’s a way!

Unable to find alien life forms anywhere else in the universe, now they reckon they’ll be able to create their own aliens right here on Earth–and that’ll be the ol’ ball game for the human race.

Seth Shostak, the director of that so far fruitless endeavor, SETI (“Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence”) has predicted that “re-engineering our children” through technology will lead to our replacement by a “new species as different from us as dogs are from grey wolves” ( http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3405312/Could-humanity-s-century-Expert-says-engineering-children-lead-creation-new-species.html ). Our new designer babies will be as different from us as dogs from wolves.

Gee, I thought they’d already done that.

The successful creation of Artificial Intelligence, he goes on, will also help make human beings obsolete.

People have some awfully funny ideas about what constitutes some desirable thing to do.

He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh; the LORD shall have them in derision. —Psalms, 2:4

It’s when He stops laughing that you’d better watch out.
