Matter and antimatter∞
Xbasic∞ is a language that runs on both Windows and Linux.
As fast as C and suitable for mathematical calculation, it was the first language used
for learning programming skills for Tmxxine

The Power of Perception
News 25 September 2006
Antimatter discovery could launch new era of physics∞
Quantum Perception∞ "By looking at it you cannot only make it move; you can pull energy out of it," said Schwab.
"We're trying to make a mechanical device be in two places at one time. What's really neat is it looks like we should be able to do it," he said.
This reminds me of two stories one is a concept from Qabbalah in which the lightening that creates the universe,
also travels back from the result to generate the source.
The other is a piece of cloth.
In Tibetan Buddhism the culture offers a scarf as a gift.
I used to beg for such a piece of cloth but was always told to buy it.
I bought several and gave them away. This went on for several months.
The scarves were presented to Lamas and then washed and sold as income for the monastery.
One day there arrived some damaged, torn and clearly very old scarves, that were to be thrown away.
I could have one of these. I choose one of the oldest, to the disgust of the washers.
These had absorbed some of the blessing from many eminent Lamas and I was sensitive enough
to feel this warmth.
What happened to the scarf? Ah that is another story . . .

Theories and more from Dr. Michio Kaku∞
Vlatko Vedral of the University of Leeds believes there must be a connection between entanglement and mass. David Deutsch of the University of Oxford believes that our Universe is part of the multiverse, a domain of parallel universes or branes∞. The "Many Worlds" interpretation of quantum theory is now the most favoured alternative to the standard Copenhagen interpretation with advocates such as Professor Michio Kaku∞
That spooky connection between tiny particles∞ is appearing everywhere, affecting the world that we experience. Set things up correctly, and you can instantaneously affect the physical properties of a particle on the other side of the universe.
Current thinking talks about a black holes drawing in matter and a white hole at the 'end' expanding that matter. It is possible (no confirmation in Physics literature yet), that the 'steady state' theory of cosmic generation may be revived. In its simplest form this would mean 'matter is drawn in from the future to expand in the past'. This would explain dark matter without recourse to branes.
Tmxxinne is concerned with several practical projects to realise its long term aims:
Operating System Linux Tmxxine is for now being actively created
Programming language ASQ is still in the early design stage, we will not bootstrap until we have a clearer specification. The ASQ language development is being given a 30 year development cycle as we await automic computing∞ and other initiatives to fruit.
Hardware The DIDO project is dependent on emerging or yet to emerge technology for example affordable personal fusion using the emerging bubble fusion∞ or similar power sources. Using ultrasound or other methods to transmit data directly into human brains - Sony patent (US 2004/267118) may allow further augmentation to the mouse but is yet to be implemented in the mainstream.
Tmxxine is rooted in the possible and pragmatic real world of verifiable experiment. Scaler wave transmission, generation of high density gravity fields and genuine attempts to further the theory and practice of overcoming time and brane dependent realities is being explored but mostly as a theoretical endeavour rather than technological reality. Proposed techniques the Gott Shell, Van Stockum Cylinder and the Kerr Ring are based on the use of mass to deflect light. We await plausible technology that will generate massive gravity increase, banded by high energy damping or antigravity to ensure protection to the surrounding area. We will not be making use of the Intelligent Falling∞ theory.
Social Change The CPA Chronology Protection Agreement introduces the need for awareness of the change inherent in the ability to shift dimension and time. Many existing societal structures will be completely replaced by the interests of individuals above the controls of imposed and limiting concerns. This is the reason Tmxxine is Open Source and has moved its discussion into the wiki format. It will be interesting how the ideals of the Tmxxine Prime Directive are influenced by commercial, military and government in the future. The need for the Chronology Protection Agency is not required until 2012
Tmxxine Prime Directive
* Each sentient has the inviolate right to live in accordance within its normal cultural evolution and continuum.
* We will not interfere with the development of alternative time and brane continuum's.
* Such interference includes the introduction of superior knowledge or technology to a realm whose environment has not yet developed such capacity.
* We choose not to violate this Prime Directive, unless acting to right an earlier violation or an accidental contamination.
* This directive takes precedence over any and all other considerations, and carries with it the highest moral obligation
* People violating this directive do not exist

Carbon Nanotube Hardware
"And now the biggest rush in string research is to collapse the different theories into one theory, which some people want to call M - Theory, for it would be the 'Mother of all theories'. M also stands for Magic, Mystery or Matrix."
"The company has begun test marketing the polygonal nanotubes, which they call nanocores, for applications in electronics and composite materials. Carbon nanotube tape can be used for such products as field emission displays, next-generation flat-panel displays, fuel cells and semiconductor parts."

Puppy turns Gold
News 14 September 2006
More packages have been added to Puppy Linux yet it is even smaller. Size is 66.6MB. Yep it is the number of the beast. Only a little beast but quite a revelation.
Squashfs now has LZMA compression, allowing more packages into this release, yet the live-CD iso file is smaller. The SLAX guys have paved the way.
Some of the new things
- New support web pages
- T2 build system (available for developers) Most of the packages compiled using the T2 build system. T2 is a set of build scripts for compiling a distro from source.
- ISOMaster
- Sweep replaces mhWaveEdit sound recorder and editor.
- InkLite 2MB small version of Inkscape
- ROX-Filer v1.2.2 - Puppy fork of Rox - puppyROX - now with partial font-antialiasing
- WishCD (substituted for Graveman)
- A stable gnumeric 1.63 spreadsheet
- Abiword 2.45 word processor, now with pdf export
- Built in scanner and digital camera support
- The Smartlink and Lucent soft-modem drivers and support utilities are now in the 'standard' live-CD.
- Upgrade of ndiswrapper wireless support
- Autodetection af SATA
- console 'aplay' and 'madplay' for sound files
Many more PupGet packages that can be installed later, such as NVU, Firefox and Thunderbird.
The "devx" module, file devx_210.sfs, is a simple method of converting Puppy into a complete C/C++ compile environment.
The matching file for compiling C/C++ source packages is
