Temné zvuky ze sklepa. O českém dungeon synthu s Mhorem a Dunkelbotem
„Musíme zahrát Diablo,“ zahlásili jednohlasně Mhor a Dunkelbot, když jsme ve studiu řešili, jaká skladba by měla otvírat díl Špíny o dungeon synthu. Oba dva zástupce tohoto obskurního žánru, který staví na temných zastřených zvucích evokujících ozvěny starých sklepů, k němu totiž přivedly soundtracky ke starým videohrám. Ve Špíně se nyní zastavili představit své první nahrávky, které nedávno vyšly.

Češi jsou k ekologii skeptičtí, protože slyší Klause a Brabce. Nepotřebujeme ale ani uhlí, ani jádro, říká Moldan
Podle doyena českých ekologů Bedřicha Moldana se domácí ekonomika do budoucna obejde jak bez uhlí, tak bez jaderné energie. Spalování uhlí podle něj zpochybňuje celý boj s klimatickou změnou a jaderná energie − jejímž je celoživotním odpůrcem − je příliš drahá. Budoucnost první...

Návrat Bondyho dystopie
„Smutek. Smutek stékal po městských střechách, smutek plaval ulicemi, smutek zaplňoval podzemní dráhu, ani nejvyšší špičky budov z něho nevyčnívaly, smutek byl pachem tohoto města a držel se v něm jako pod poklopem.“ Tak začíná Bondyho próza Cybercomics z roku 1997. Jako by se vracela …

Vaster than Empires and More Slow
"Vaster than Empires and More Slow" is a science fiction story by American author Ursula K. Le Guin, first published in the collection New Dimensions 1, edited by Robert Silverberg. It is set in the fictional Hainish universe, where Earth is a member of an interstellar "League of Worlds". The anthology was released in United States in 1971, by Doubleday Books. The story follows an exploratory ship sent by the League to investigate a newly discovered planet, named World 4470. The team includes Osden, an "empath" who is able to feel the emotions of those around him; however, he has an abrasive personality that leads to tensions within the team. The ship finds World 4470 to be a world covered in forests, and apparently devoid of animal life. However, the team eventually begins to feel a fear emanating from the planet. The team realizes that the entire vegetation on the planet is part of a singular consciousness, which is reacting in fear at the explorers after spending its whole life in isolation. Like Le Guin's earlier novel The Word for World Is Forest, this story examines the relationship between humans and their natural environment. The story...

Teenage Rebellion as a Failure of Society
Historians have noticed that the concept of teenage rebellion is a modern invention. Young adults often (but not always) have a tendency to be horny and impulsive, but the flagrant and sometimes violent rejection of authority associated with teenagers is a stereotype unique to modern culture. Many adults incorrectly assume this means we have gotten “too soft” and need to bring back spanking, paddles, and other harsher methods of punishment. As any respectable young adult will tell you, that isn't the answer, and in fact highlights the underlying issue of ageism that is creating an aloof, frustrated, and repressed youth.
