Allon Science Fiction

The next utility patent is dated 1 Oct. 2024. This is really like a kind of melding of Gene Roddenberry with Steve Jobs, where the guy who showed the flip phone (cell phone) in his Sci-Fi TV movies actually owns the patent on that device.

Scientific "What if" writing builds upon the method.

The Professor Noodle Show #407 "I Am Here" After a while busy with my scientific technology work, I've decided to discuss a bit more of it now. I took some segments from Episode 69 back in 2003, and E...

On YouTube a fellow Producer has a vlog he calls "EthanTravels" and in the 19 April 2024 episode, he has a pause to advise people not to send money to the PayPal account that is called "The Official Ethan Travels" or several others like this because people get free money over the internet that way. He said he doesn't even have a PayPal account. That's part of the reason I closed mine, is to try to get some control. The corporations make money anyway, even if they are doing the architecture of their information services in a way that easily facilitates scam artists online.
Another factor is that corporations revise the way they have access to the pages of the subscribed services you are using with them for what is supposed to be "your account" with them. This functions like you own a car and you pay to use a road, and the ones who own the road will periodically stop and open the hood of your car and make adjustments and modifications according to their engineering choices. Supposedly you own that car. But in reality, the programming is done by the corporation paid to provide the service because the architecture of the software is Server based programming that is under the control of the ISP which is the corporation online that you are using for the address and the page that you pay a subscription to "own" as "your account" with this system.
I just learned today when the billing changed, and I called customer service, that the details on how to control my account pages was redesigned completely. I still don't know if I can get corrections on some of the pages of this "account" that is supposed to be called "my account" with them? And yet, it took me continuing to ask a progressive logic ladder in questions to find out they changed the whole system for how to control each separate page. It used to be that there was one "Master" address and everything was controlled in all the other pages allowed, from that one "Master" screen page. But that was before the gigantic multi-domain corporation took over this service provider. Since then, they have done what they feel they need to do. It does get published in massive pages of things that are worded the way the software engineers like to say it. Really, they just do what they think will work best and the consumer will face the consequences.
At any rate, as someone publishing a controversial sci-fi novel during the Reagan Era, from the month it was public domain has caused me extra caution to control my public identity information and record of activity, the reality is software engineers who are empowered by their corporate rank have a lot of capability to impact my life as a member of the Author's Guild and Writer's Guild West. I have very little resource other than to be vigilant to watch for scam emails, web pages, and page activity.
This is a big challenge to individual persons. It isn't really much of an issue for corporations. The financial resource decrease in the fall of 2008 meant I stepped away from the business goals of incorporation I'd been working on for decades. I write such that my sci-fi concept in part grew into my patent for one thing, and the development of progress toward a sci-fi movie for a second. Yet to this day, shadow variations of my sci-fi movie script show up in other permutations, and my own work remains without royalties or financial reward. And yet, scammers solicit as if me unless I stop it?
