The Ass Between Two Chairs Howard Slater
Under the regime of bio-political power we could say that the subject is reduced to a knowable being rather than an unknown and unforeseeable becoming. The possible is reduced to what is probable, empircally ascertainable and exhaustible. Here knowledge [...] reduces life to a state of equilibrium by excluding the non-knowledge of the emotions, the sensuous knowledge of affectivities. These latter, as provocations to forms of thought that resist categorisation as "knowledge" and as such defy the surety of being, are factors that can inform a "labour as subjectivity" and secure its potential to resist a bio-political power that values "knowledge" as that which reinforces being as an object, that delineates it to the point of incarcerating it. [...] Can there be factories of everyday life wherein knowledge is sensualised away from its status as private property to become a component in the production of subjects as "non-definitive affectivities'"? Can these factories produce pre-individuals as the affective classes?

La rivoluzione del Terzo Millennio e i paesi poveri di Chiara Giannatiempo
Alcuni dati dimostrano che la diffusione della tecnologia lungi da essere un processo realmente globale, ha delle caratteristiche piuttosto disomogenee. I Paesi (OCSE) sviluppati dispongono dell'80% di utenti Internet al mondo. Quasi tutta la ITC (Information and Communication Technology) e' prodotta dal 15% della popolazione mondiale, concentrata per la maggior parte nei Paesi industrializzati. Solo la meta' della popolazione mondiale ha luce e telefono necessari per utilizzare queste tecnologie. Stati Uniti e Canada hanno da soli il 57% dei navigatori.

Mac OSX Tutorial Filippo AntonicaÝÝÝ
"Guida alla personalizzazione di Mac OSX", di Filippo Antonica, e' una guida benfatta sull'uso dell'ultimo sistema operativo Apple, fondato su Unix BSD (Berkeley Software Distribution, dunque Unix). Mac OSX unisce la proverbiale facilita' d'uso Mac con la potenza di Unix, e seguiamo volentieri l'invito di molti nostri utenti a pubblicare una guida.
"Mac OSX e' un sistema operativo basato su una versione Unix che Apple ha debitamente modificato, questa si chiama Darwin. Darwin e' il cuore di Mac OSX e lavora sotto l'interfaccia grafica Aqua. [...] Quello che sembra essere uno degli aspetti piu' interessanti di Mac OSX e' sicuramente la grande stabilita' offerta da Darwin [...] unita a un'interfaccia dotata di assoluta semplicita' (in perfetto stile Apple) e grandissima eleganza grazie ad effetti di fluidita' dell'interfaccia stessa che hanno portato poi gli ingegneri di Cupertino a battezzarla col nome di Aqua."
