Scientific Research & Self-Development Activism
Hey guys! =D
Hi,
my name is Jakob, I'm a 21 year old student from Austria. I have known this place of exchange of ideas for a long time. I originally watched Chiren's "Athene" vids, liked them a great deal. Once IPower was founded I just didn't care for joining the movement, damn I was in puberty still!
Now as I'm ageing increasingly feeling the need to exchange thoughts and express my feeling about current occurrences and trends to a greater and more wide-spread audience apart from my friends, I finally decided to join the IPower movement actively.
About me: I'm the kind of person who is always fooling around, looking for fun, never missing an opportunity to crack a good joke. However, if you get to know me better, you - depending on you're mind-set and general opinion on things - might come to realize that I'm concerned a great deal about a lot of things, meaning I want to get involved in discussing, working on and finally improving these issues.
The stuff I care about ranges from social behaviour over concepts such as sustainability or cradle-to-cradle to attitudes, ways of thinking or dealing with problems.
There is a lot more to say about me. Still according to the rethoric principle of Brevitas, I shall end my introduction right here. I guess you guys will get to know me better as I involved with the community.
I'm looking forward to be here ;)
Questions and comments are appreciated any time!
Jakob

Good to see you finally posting, Jakob.
And I'm the same way. Get on chat with us here, and you'll usually see me just joking around and making people laugh - but I also have a more serious side to my personality and I care a lot about social issues, etc. .. which comes out more in my discussion posts. :-)

Timo Kerremans replied to Tim Young's discussion Capitalism and profit"Yes I agree with that, a global change in the state of mind.I think if every single person in the world has an enormous feeling for solidarity, it is possible to create a working system where money would be obsolete. This unfortunatly is an utopian…"
Tim Young replied to Tim Young's discussion Capitalism and profit"I believe an entirely new paradigm is required. A global mindset shift away from the notion of "profit" and towards co-existence within a cooperative framework."
Timo Kerremans replied to Tim Young's discussion Capitalism and profit"What might be a solution for this profit-based society?They say money can solve a lot of problems, but these problems are mostly created by the bad use of money. I think you can't solve problems with the same thing that caused them. "
Tim Young replied to Bart Skraeling's discussion dealing with trolls"Yes that's similar to the usual advice one might see. And most of it is good advice. The only problem I have is with the "ignoring". Good in theory but in practice not always that easy - especially with the more persistent…"

Tim Young replied to Bart Skraeling's discussion dealing with trolls"Yes well, you could speculate forever as to the why. But how will you ever know the real truth - unless you get some actual trolls to fess up. I am guessing honesty is not their strongest suit.
I would also suggest that most of them probably…"

Tim Young replied to Bart Skraeling's discussion dealing with trolls"The moment you let a troll get under your skin and you react with anger or similar - then they are getting exactly what they want.
So anything BUT getting angry or pissed off with them works a lot better.
Sarcasm can work well. Like commenting…"

yesterday it was the eurovision song contest.I went into a newspapers internett site (dagbladet if anyone is interested) and saw they had a forum for discussing the results (the results where coming in at the time). much of the forum was covered with the comments of two people, both trolls, one in norwegian and one in english. they where claiming that norway lost because we sent an immigrant to the finals (the guy was born in Iran but came to norway when he was just over 1 yrs old), and other…See More
