    Who are you voting against the least?

    Basically. If you take it as a couple of states you have to build roads and sewers and shit like that. If you take it as a territory you have to build army bases. Best thing to do is what we did once before. Just send the army down there, kill anything that resists, and tell the ones that...

    EQ Never

    There were people that didn't think eql was a blatant scam? I was almost tempted to build something in it. But they wanted a weekly sub. That shit was as delusional as mcquaid and only mildly more functional.

    For me it's more the hassle of having to put on pants. When I go out I usually have a fine time. But when I stay home and play with my Emily I have a GREAT time.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Natural selection is a bit of an inverted way to think of it though, it seems to imply a positive where the process is negative. Selection pressure? Adaptive gradients? There may be a better encapsulation for the idea. It seems like the term natural selection was a philosophical bridge that...

    Is it kinda like "The Stranger"? You know, where you jack it with the other hand so it feels like someone else is doing it? Cause I jack with my left but sometimes, if i'm feeling particularly lonesome, I'll use the right instead. Is that what alt-righting is?

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    In a book you can just say this guy is the best ever and roll with it. In a visual medium though you have to show it. It's not some arbitrary rule, it really is how it works. The two best fighters in show got are probably The Hound and Jon Snow. We've actually seen them buckle swash and NOT...

    Good night sweet Prince

    The only funny part is that when they were calling the ambulance, no one had any idea of where they were. Like what the address was. It took them five minutes to find a piece of mail. I wonder how many times they told the dispatcher, "IITS FUCKING PRINCES HOUSE MAN"

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Depends on how far back you're looking, really. When you're talking about the earliest state of the universe, like the first 20 seconds of expansion or whatever... that stuff is faith based. If you're talking about why galaxies don't fly apart at the seams, that's confidence. And that's fine...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Sure. Astrophysics is mostly faith based. Most of the social sciences are largely faith based. And it's not a dig. I do love me some amateur astrophysics, and the arguments are reasonable and derive from simple concepts. But when people start telling you about the event horizon of a black...

    Well, it's not like he's a climatologist!!! Doesn't he have a phd in chemistry or something? I know he's an engineer, I thought he was a chemical engineer. So hes pretty much 10e15 times more likely to read and comprehend the climatology literature. I think the first 4 syllable word...

    There is also the practical concern of what long term 0 gravity environments do to the human body. Astronauts on the ISS already saw some deterioration of bone and muscle mass, which you would expect and which can be alleviated with exercise regimens. But there might be some real concerns...

    like 80% of your blood is in your skin most of the time. Blood can either go shallow or go deep. Really only 2 options. Alcohol opens the capillaries and allows your blood, really forces your blood, to go shallow. This is bad for heat conservation. If you're super white like I am you can see...

    Just some observations/points from the twitch I watched: The combat is actually more complicated than it is in EU or CK, but it's still pretty far behind the curve of what could make it really interesting. It's the 10 years ago standard of "ships have capacity, you fill that capacity with...

    Weird. I was thinking about this 10 minutes ago. GET HYPE. I've watched some twitch videos where the AI Dev plays on camera with some dreadlocked viking dude. I don't think it will have the depth at first -- it doesn't actually look all that terribly complete. I mean, it looks complete...

    He'll I dunno. But the raw materials are there for some alchemy if you mine the atmosphere. You can make water with electricity, and oxygen, and you'll have more carbon than you'd ever know what to do with. I do think mars might make more sense at first, if only because it is terrestrial...

    Orbital, not ground. Which honestly mars seems more attainable at first. You can always dig down and exploit traditional resources. But who knows, with 3d printing, boundless solar energy, and giant carbon dioxide scoops... maybe some orbital heavy industry is possible too.

    Edge of Tomorrow (2014)

    First one was quite good. I don't know that there's anything to add. It'll probably just be the last twenty minutes of the first one extended into ninety. Which will not be as good as the first, but I'm sure it'll be a good action movie.
