On the homogenisation of time

Three stages of before during and after, are naturally occurring phenomenon. We live in the entropic one way street that is called the passing of time. Our universe, galaxy, solar system, and planet all rotate through time, so it's normal for humans to have evolved biological underpinnings that are dependent on these three stages. It can be felt in the subconscious urges that we experience eventually as hunger, or desire... The before. The ecstacy of the now, during. And the denouement, the after. Consciously accessed experiences, manifest as future memory, working memory and attention, and short and long-term memory. These distinctions reflect the rising and falling of cycles, their repetitive nature, the foundation of life itself, life as we know it, complete with the cycle of life and death, growth, maturation, renewal. The psychological impacts of these three stages have been studied and exploited to generate compulsive behaviours, consumerist behaviours, by stimulating and pro

Scientific religious philosophical mashup

I always thought of vajrayana as Tibet's highest yoga tantra, a serious and esoteric practice that has a precise and well defined goal. I'm pretty sure that's the lightning path, for liberation in a single lifetime. Trying to squash the theory of evolution, quantum physics, and astronomy into a paradigm of realms, kalachakra, and rebirth just seems to me to be asking for confusion. Maybe it can be a fun exercise, to decode and conceptualise vajrayana in modern scientific terms, but what's the point? Does it help in your practice? Does it develop science? Or is it just for a laugh at the nonsensical conclusions it leads to? Or worse, to create an illusion to which to cling, another obstacle in the path? Again, it's like precisely calculating the foot size of angels, given a pin, and how many are dancing on it's head. I've always thought suffering is related to the mental scramble, the mental acrobatics, people endure trying to come to terms with reality. The

Nougat 7.1.1 (crDroid) on my LG G3

Image
I became a custom ROM fan with my Galaxy S2 and CyanogenMod years ago...and loved it so much that I consulted CM forums when it came time to upgrade to a new phone. I wanted to get a model that was well supported by the CM community, and settled on and LG G3. I had no trouble running CM 12.1 on it for a year or two...granted there were a few non-functioning features (wireless charging, NFC) but that didn't bother me immensely. At some point I started getting an error message...'Unfortunately Photos has stopped working', or something to that effect. This error began after transfering a photo to the phone from a portable HD through USB OTG. That error, and a second bug that caused my camera to hang, and delay about 3 seconds between pressing the photo buttton and actually capturing the image, made me seek out a new ROM. I watched a great vid from Max Lee  at LGG3root.com, found the crDroid distro for my D855, and combined it with Open GAPPS Pico package as suggested. A

Output PC audio to speakers and Bluetooth device

Image
I was searching for a solution to play music in a second room, through a Bluetooth speaker that is connected to my PC...but I wanted to maintain playback through the speaker system directly connected to the PC.  A quick google search brought up a forum that suggested this (donation based) software, VB-Audio VoiceMeter. VB-Audio VoiceMeeter Don't forget to adjust the delay if you need to sync up the two outputs (menu>settings) Don't forget to change windows default audio device to the VB Audio Voicemeter.   Exactly what I was looking for!
