been reducing my internet browsing in the last weeks...so i am a little curious - is it me or the internet is on the way to become the 'new TV'? people who watch tv instead of browsing the web are less 'able' (or just too old), so obviously the ones who want to develop themselves, to discover new means and methods (or even purposes) will connect to the web...but it seems more regulations appear yearly in order to 'institutionalize' the web, this meaning that, well...institutions, authority...less freedom of speech, less space for inovation and a different way of flow of information ('cuz filters). internet = new TV or just oversaturation of the digital?

I prefer Tea over coffee. It tastes delicious without adding anything to it. Even with a heap of milk and sugar coffee still tastes like crap. What's your hot beverage of choice?

Hey, guys, what do you want from 2017? I wished for myself, luck/fortune. It seems having skills or intelligence is not enough haha...it was never enough, in fact. It's important to want things...somebody who doesn't, dies (at this point I should outline that it's important to want to stay alive, too...but not fear death). So, I want stuff, but I realize without luck, they won't ever come to fruition. Speaking of fruits, why do we call an accomplishment a 'fruit' (fruition)? Is it our monkey heritage? I think so... I'm asking because Trump became president...kidding. I am asking because things are very tense, it's hard to push frontiers and wish for grand t…

Chapter 1 Today, an odd wind blew into Magicduel, one that I had not created. Trouble is brewing... Deep down in the bowls of Magicduel, he sat brooding in his laboratory, plotting his wicked deeds and down right nasty schemes. If he wasn't puttering about with his Alchemy doo-dads, he was experimenting with herbs, spices, and other noxious, toxic, and gooey things. The arched door to his secret hideout was old, as old as the tunnels beneath Marind Dale Park. There were two intricately carved bolts, inset with oblong shapes, that seem to lock the door shut from inside the tunnel. In between the bolts was an inset carving of a circle with swirls that abutted against…

I'm afraid I won't be writing this stuff in the future, for whatever reasons there may be. Life is moving fast for me (and for everyone, I suppose), and I find myself incapable of sustaining my intellectual researches. It's been like that for a while, it's nothing sudden, but it feels like it's the time for sudden movements, without looking back. You know what they say - never look back, that's the way to happiness. But, really, can one do it? I think the 'quo vadis' moments are key to what a human being is, without them we're happy, yes, but not really human. Then, of course, is the discourse of why write it at all. Here. Well, first of all, I can't say much of this…

My dear friends, This post is not related to md, hence the category i post in. It is related just to myself, and is written just to those that, regardless when, could have said they were my friends at some point in time. I am not the 'popular' type of person, and md was my escape to be myself without people knowing all my faces, or that i was actually very very shy..and much more Writing this here, makes much more sense than writing it on facebook or other places..i had no facebook before md btw Life keeps making jokes with me. Its true i cheated death enough times to deserve the worst revenge from it, and i enjoyed it, still do, so i can't complain. Probably t…

Good Evening MD! I thought you guys might be interested in a glimpse of the ancient MD page. You can go to a website: archive.org and search for magicduel.com. There you can see how the page evolved over the years starting from 2007. You can even click through the links. Some of these work from that page such as the link to the old forum: https://web.archive.org/web/20060720180958/http://www.magicduel.com/forum/ You can view some of the topics still. I thought this was a cool glimpse to the past and I hope you enjoy it ^^

If there's interest maybe there'll be "Classy MB team" (classy=legendary (football) players from all of MD's history...), "Classy LR", "Classy Magicduelist_serial_killers" captained by Dst and sub-captained by Eon, "Team questers" (Dst and Nim capt and sub-capt), "Team Grinders" and "Classy team Grinders" etc. But unlikely, we don't have a sport audience here Anyhows - now we go to current Marind Bell football squad! (filled out the starting eleven on a quickie, sorry if I missed anyone) On the goal we have our team captain, No. 1 - Maebius! We'll go straight to me (or my old me), substitute captain, No. 8 - Princ Rhaegar, playing as a not-…

I started reading Orwell's 1984 a couple of days ago and I couldn't go past 5 pages. True, it *was* midnight, so maybe that helped in letting it go, but I realized something the next day. From what I read (and I know the story, the 'message'- wiki), it was a somewhat correct depiction of the general feeling that people in Eastern Europe felt during the communist years, but it was so exaggerated...It was a painful read and, most importantly, boring. I understand the term 'dystopia', I understand that it has exaggerations, but such a society could.not.exist. The mixture of elements simply makes such a 'construction' impossible. More believable is Huxley's Brave N…

I couldn't find a topic like this and a couple movie references have come up in MD lately that most people cheer and rant over while others are clueless about so I thought it'd be fun to have everyone throw out a few movies they think of as MUST see. (mur asked for a big list) The Princess Bride The Fifth Element The Usual Suspects Spotlight, a walk to remember, Pi (old b/w movie, weird but..interesting) - Interstellar (boring in first half , amazing outcome in the last) - The Devils Advocate (lovely opinion in the end) - V for Vendetta (bad movie, amazing idea) - Deja Vu (best action movie involving time travel) - The Cube (must see all 3, end of la…

I have seen several personality quizzes in various places(forum signatures, "Comments on Self" pages, other forum topics, etc.), and I would like to make a list of them. Please post if you find an interesting one(or more). Ok, no responses, so here are some: Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (Lots of questions, not that interesting, accurate) (ISTP) I am also a fan of Pokemon, so: http://www.dragonflycave.com/newpay.aspx (10 questions; interesting, if you're into pokemon; accurate-ish) (Ralts)

Hello all. So last night at the gazebo i had a very interesting conversations with Mrf. This conversation was about "love". So i am making this topic to discuss it further for me and Mrf if he wishes to still talk of it. Tell me and everyone in MD what you think love is. What is love? Is love Lust? Is love an object or person? Is love a lie and does not exist? Post here what you feel love is. Nobody will be judged on how they feel about this so called love

I apparently spend too much time on Pinterest and Tumblr. For no good reason, I felt the need to make bad MD valentines real fast and share them. And then I had the very bad thought that others may also want to make and share MD valentines. So happy pre-Valentine's Day people! Have fun and add if you want

disclaimer: before going wild and into denial mode, keep in mind that all i am asking is for proof that the earth is round, not that it is flat .. if it is ..why not know how you know it is, right? When i was little i had this "mad scientist" old inventor living in the same building, that told me once, that the earth is FLAT..and he was very convinced and convincing about it.... but i was a little kid and over the years i ignored it and forgot it. Today i wanted to find a single proof that the earth is round... sometimes i like to question "the obvious" and know such "basic" things. ...but guess what... instead of finding some solid proof that the earth is …

(electronics) I am trying to build something (takes me up to 4-5 hours to fall asleep, but only if ikeep myself occupied with stuff not work related)/...and for this ..something... i need to map a large frequency range, as large as possible, lets say from x up to 3Ghz, ad translate it into frequency in audible range. I am interested to group together the waves. sample it, idk how its called,,,you tell me. In the end i want to be able to output the result and hear the pulses and whatever noise i get from condensing the high frequencies into lower frequencies. Accuracy is not imporant, and i am aware most of the data will be lost, its natural, you convert from a lot t…
