If you are talking about the airbags around the lander that only works up to a certain weight. The heavier ones can not be slowed down enough just with the airbags/ parachute because of the thin atmo.

Booze out of thin air you say!!! Bring it on girl!

Gotta admit, had to google this shit too as my last biology class was some 20+ years ago

Yeah i think Tuco wanted some plants to plug directly into the wall socket or something(extremely simplified) and the first thing to accomplish that would be getting rid of Photosynthesis ad replace it with something else. Fungi dont run on pure photosynthesis but require dead organic material...

Yes Photosynthesis is very elegant, efficient and basis for converting sun energy into something usable by almost all living beings on this planet( some Extremophiles excluded) The only reason why any one would want to get away from it is for deep space exploration and settling on planets that...

Would it have to be a one shot from organic compounds to stuff edible by humans? Why not a multi step process converting simple carbohydrates to more and more comlpex ones with end result that can be eaten by deep space explorers? At least until we get the Star trek matter resequencers.

Well the whole photosynthesis could go away and with it chlorophyll. Mushrooms already do that and they are delicious.

There are some bacteria that thrive on electricity and from there it would not be that far of a stretch to genetically engineer some algae.

While plants running on electricity would be cool from a pure scientific point it would be just adding one more inefficiency to the process. sunlight is plentiful and cheap and creating electricity for the plants has energy conversion loses any way you look at it. A plant that somehow utilizes...

If colonization and conquest are such bad things that can never be forgiven or forgotten, where da fuck are my reparation checks from Mongols and Ottomans?

JFC these people can not be serious. Please tell me this is some sort of comedy skit that went wrong...

But but but he got that peace prize!

If its one thing Russians know how to do is their military parades... Except when their high tech tanks break down.

Human controlled? How naive, that's what they want you to think!

So you were not bragging how you are more ethical because you are vegan? As an omnivore i know i don't get full unless i am sure something suffered needlessly before it became my food.

Now that is what i call a hot pink center!

What resources does our planet have that are not abundantly available and much easily exploitable elsewhere in space? The only thing i can think of are complex hydrocarbons as result of life and maybe some alloys we could eventually make that are not available from your neighborhood asteroid...

So they are saying all future space exploring ships will have engines based on integer division rounding errors?

That is the definition of " case closed" if i ever saw one.

How do they even calculate the worth of the website. Do they take adblock into account or are all calculations based on your typical AOL internet user?

Sheeeit! Could make a TV show about it too. We buy an old and decrepit URL, renovate it, rack up some views and then sell it to a "Craig" type for some major cash!

6 figures budget you say? Pull the trigger a_skeleton_03 and then get on setting up another site we can migrate to. With that kind of scratch the new site could be mega awesome.

Well i guess its time to start the Sith religion and then declare a jihad on all of those Jedi wankers and anyone supporting them.

So its gravity, strong nuclear, weak nuclear, electromagnetic and The Force?

And there was no need to throw money at a bad businessman to get this shit back. Sweet!

For this shit to work on an autonomous level all the windows in those cars need to be blacked out for the first few years. Imagine all the screaming and heart attacks from people thinking they will collide with another vehicle. On another note i cant wait for first public AI execution for...

Just imagine all the windowless panel vans filled to the brim with candy picking up your kids from school.

You need to use standard units. How is a fleet of autonomous vehicles compare to a fleet of A) Grandmas B) Rubberneckers trying to check if anyone was decapitate in the crash on other side of highway divider and C) Fleet of Asian (non-Tokyo drift) drivers.

Very ... symmetrical!

What i would like to know is are trains fully autonomous yet or do they still require meatbags behind the levers? I dont recall reading anything about large scale autonomous operations of trains be it cargo or passenger. Wouldn't those be the ideal test-bed for something like this tech?

The whole autonomous cars deal goes out the window as soon as you have to mix it with human drivers on the same roads. I dont care how powerful a computer they slap on that sumabitch because as soon as it gets on the same road as some of the morons i already see driving its going to be toast...

How does it feel to be responsible for 20 % of the legit traffic to that site?

I just checked my email and didnt get it(even checked the spam folder) Spam filters must have cut it before it got to "g"

O Oh noes... we are infantile! Also pardon my language too!

Thats what I did!

Lanx is that you over there scaring the kids on the interwebs?

That is why MMORPG.com is best served with 3 cloves of Garlic and some peroxide gargle.

Browsing MMORPG forums just takes too much patience. Like having a conversation with an obnoxiously cheerful dimwit who you suspect might be a secret space lizard.

I dont get it. Was that supposed to be a jab at Erronius?

I bought FG and 5e core pack a long time ago but it has been just sitting in my steam library. I tried using it once but it just seemed too complicated. I am going to have to check out those links you posted to try and figure it out.
