There’s no place like Chrome

Apparently, Firefox has a bug that makes it even less trustworthy than the Net usually is, so I have installed Chrome and am using it for the duration, with redoing passwords and other fun stuff. The continuing saga of computers becoming the sort of thing I want to use computers to deal with.

Failed libertarian

Unsurprising psychological study of libertarians:

1. Libertarians will value liberty more strongly and consistently than liberals or conservatives, at the expense of other moral concerns.
2. Libertarians will rely upon emotion less – and reason more – than will either liberals or conservatives.
3. Libertarians will be more individualistic and less collectivist compared to both liberals and conservatives.

That explains why I wanted to be a libertarian, though I have long since decided that a lot of problems such as Tragedy of the Commons, Coordination Problem, Externalities, etc., keep it from working.
