Note
I am a student, living in the capital of Serbia, studying to eventually become an astrophysicist. My all-encompassing goal in life is the advancement of our species as a whole, through the small, as well as the big things, with the help of logic and reason. I am passionate about science and the promotion of science, and I enjoy helping people in my free time. I have been around in the brony community since January 2011, when the first group of bronies split away to create the foundations of the fandom, and I am still involved with that group. Due to the fact that I follow proper logic above all else, I am not very likely to respect irrational decisions and views (or people who make/hold them), which, for example, includes things such as nationalism or any kind of irrational discrimination.

  1. I probably should have attached something to that. http://ur1.ca/ctb7c

  2. I started drawing on the 2nd of February. My first 3 drawings (which I actually posted here) were actually, in my opinion, pretty horrible. But after that, I believe I started improving. And then that seemed to stop. It might be because I started drawing more complicated things (as opposed to just pony faces from the front), but it's slightly disheartening. I uploaded my stuff to DeviantArt yesterday, actually, so here's a link to it: http://todiwan.deviantart.com/ And if you prefer this format, have an imgur album of everything I've done: http://imgur.com/a/0BsQJ#18 It's an ALBUM (many people don't notice), you can look at other pictures by clicking Next/Prev buttons on the right of the pics. All comments and criticisms (perhaps experiences from artists?) are very welcome and greatly appreciated.

  3. I switched from Windows XP to Windows 7 only a year ago. Windows XP was the first operating system that I used myself for an extended period of time, and it took quite a bit of pressure from a friend of mine to get me to finally switch to 7. However, his arguments were too strong, whereas mine were lacking, so I had no choice but to comply. Ever since I first set up the dual boot, and started using Windows 7, merely as a test, to see how I like it, I have not gone back to Windows XP - even once, even when there was a good reason to. The fact that I added 2 more GB of RAM to my existing 2GB, back when I was considering switching, also helped with my decision. However, I do not believe that Windows 8 is good in any way. I certainly hope that it will not become a standard any time soon, and statistics seem to show that it is not being adopted nearly as fast as XP. It is more comparable to Vista, if anything. I cannot wait to see what Microsoft comes up with after Windows 8.

  5. This site seems to be getting faster and faster. When I visited a little while ago, it was much slower compared to how fast it was shortly after its inception, but now it is faster. Apart from the recent drama about the site ownership, has anything interesting or notable happened?

  6. @ceruleanspark @doates Wonderful to see that whoever is running the site is paying attention. If only there was a more informative and less sensationalist article or documentary to present the situation to the masses, as well as an organization that will be more sincere.

  7. @ceruleanspark They are not a charity organization, they merely contribute to charities, though.

  8. @ceruleanspark I would not outright label them a scam. Not all their goals are inherently detrimental. But they are far from genuine.

  9. @yuri Of course it is, but their goals have no proper intellectual basis. If they were to decide what was supposed to happen, it would result in absolute disaster.

  10. @doates Invisible Children themselves are advocating military action against the Ugandan government. This should be enough for any well-informed individual to oppose them.

  11. I cannot believe that this site is jumping on the ridiculous, sensationalist bandwagon based around ignorance. that is "KONY". I suspect that people who give attention to this movement are simply those desperately looking for something to belong to, but who do not wish to put in effort into finding a worthwhile cause. This campaign will not change anything. In fact, it might provoke unrest and instability in the very country that they are trying to protect the interests of. I urge you to inform yourself and to not let yourself be swayed by sensationalism and propaganda. Seek the truth and justice. Do not seek to simply belong to a popular cause. What the Invisible Children movement are advocating would only make the situation worse. Less than one third of the funds that the organization has gathered went to African charities. The majority of it went to lobbying. http://ababaka.com/cms/index.php?option=com_kunena&func=view&catid=12&id=9790&Itemid=45&lang=en

  12. Well, hello there. I wonder if there is anybody around from when I used to frequent this place.

  14. Now that this is out of the way, how is everyone?

  15. Hello there, everyone. I have not logged in for a while. If you would excuse the shameless self-promotion, I would like to inform you that, if anyone here has a particular interest in astronomy, you might be interested in following me on twitter. If I gather sufficient followers, I will start tweeting and retweeting things that I might find interesting. The topic will often be related to astronomy, but not exclusively. I will also tweet things that are related to ponies, Minecraft, politics, and so on. http://twitter.com/todiwan

  16. @pinhooves Hello. I have not been here for a couple of months.

  17. I have no idea what is going on right now.

  18. @thegherkinprincess I... See... Sounds very exciting.

  19. @loak I am fairly sure that we talked in the past, back when RDN was brand new. Either way, good to meet you. Again.

  20. @greydragon412 Quite well. Preparations for the events leading up to Ragnarök itself continue. How are things here?

  21. @thegherkinprincess Hello there. A shame.

    Thursday, 30-Jun-11 21:35:10 UTC from web in context
  22. @loak The supreme Lord of Valhalla and the whole of Asgard, the God of Battle, wisdom and poetry and the Master of the Valiant Dead. Why?

    Thursday, 30-Jun-11 21:23:20 UTC from web in context
  23. Has anything interesting happened in my absence?

    Thursday, 30-Jun-11 21:19:45 UTC from web in context
  24. @thelastgherkin Magic.

  25. @bentokitty The Mask? Excellent movie.

    Sunday, 22-May-11 11:30:29 UTC from web in context
  26. @quetzalcoatl I have not seen the mentioned movie, perhaps luckily. While I have heard good things about it, I am not sure that I would be completely satisfied.

  27. @thelastgherkin It is going quite well. As you may already have heard, the less logical denizens of Midgard have come up with a crazy idea that the end is coming on this day. Unfortunately for those lusting for Ragnarök, the "end" will not happen any time soon. How are things here?

    Saturday, 21-May-11 22:26:23 UTC from web in context
  28. @quetzalcoatl It is good to see a fellow deity, albeit from a different pantheon, in this place.

  29. As expected, the Christian version of Ragnarök has failed to materialize. Hold the Heathen hammer high, brothers and sisters, as you prepare for !Valhalla.

  30. @dezzierose Spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaace...
