https://waypoint.vice.com/en_us/article/7xegk4/thailand-buddhist-monks-video-games
robertogrecoThe danger in playing a game is not the game itself, but the desire it may cause—since in Buddhist thought, desire is the cause of suffering. “If you lose or win, you want to do it again and again. You’re always thinking about the game. If you cling to that mindset, it causes mental suffering or physical suffering.”
This danger of competition and desire are why monks are generally not allowed to play sports. (Though, to be honest, I’ve seen more than a few novices playing covert soccer games.) Sports offer many benefits, both men agree, but if they become too much about winning or lead to bad feelings it can damage attempts to attain enlightenment.
Robert Rath, the author, tries to get the monks to dive deep on the connection between spawning, dying, and respawning in video games and an idea of a cycle of life and rebirth, but for the most part, the monks aren’t buying it. Games are fun, they’re challenging, they’re big distractions from study and meditation — and that’s about it. Not a lot of deeper meaning there.
Which to me, is refreshing, and very Buddhist (as I understand it). Why does everything have to mean anything? Most things are just nonsense. Let them be what they are, and be wary of the power you give them."]]]>games gaming videogames monks buddhism meditation attention 2018 thailand desire enlightenment addiction robertrath study meaning reincarnationhttps://pinboard.in/https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:bb21b1ecea45/Gautam Bhan: A bold plan to house 100 million people | TED Talk | TED.com2017-12-13T06:25:49+00:00

robertogrecoThis is a pernicious way of framing the argument, and we should resist it. The goal of public policy everywhere should be to increase access to the internet—the whole goddam internet, not some corporate-controlled alcove—for as many people as possible. By condoning zero-rating we will condemn to a lifetime of servitude as one of Master Zuckerberg’s sharecroppers. We can, and should, do better than that.
"Already services are starting to move away from the open web and to Facebook. And it’s happening not just in the poor world, but in poor parts of the developed world, where there also exists a sense among some that using an app isn’t the same as using the internet, which requires a web browser like Safari or Internet Explorer. Salix Homes manages government-owned subsidized housing in some the poorest parts of Salford, a deprived area in the north of England. Salix recently decided to accept complaints and rent payments from its tenants on Facebook."]]>facebook internet culture mobile technology 2015 myanmar burma indonesia philippines thailand walledgardens nigeria internet.org web onlinehttps://pinboard.in/https://pinboard.in/u:robertogreco/b:73eb4e1fd0ed/How Different Cultures Understand Time - Business Insider2014-09-25T20:27:41+00:00
