There's not a lot I can do about it

It's just like me wanting to be the CEO of an asteroid mining corporation; although it sounds beyond our technology, it's entirely possible to start now and have it fully developed in several years, I just don't have the means to get started

Have you forgotten that you live in a capitalist society? All you need to do is research the technology, make a few good arguments, and attract investors. It's called a startup.

Do you think Planetary Resources has the money to send up robots to collect asteroid ice? No, dude, they were just able to secure enough funding to incorporate, set up an office/website, and hit the media.

Armadillo Aerospace is just a group of guys who set aside a few hours a week to design and build prototype launch systems.

Copenhagen Suborbitals started the same way. Google, Facebook, etc.

The entire website is like that. The NG crew has developed a robust system to help people collaborate and learn to make Games, but not many people take advantage of it as it was intended.

I think the best thing we can do it try to be some of the few decent reviewers.

Uncheck all the ones with icons when you are clearing each page. Should take less time than making new threads.

Dude

There's well over 4000 posts in here, no exaggeration

So what are you waiting for? Should BrenTheMan code in a new tool for sorting PMs so you can do it in 10 seconds?

Yeah it is.

After looking through a lot of the earlier pages, there are a lot scattered around that I wanna preserve

Find the ones you want to preserve, hover over the grey target next to the check box, and give them icons.

Uncheck all the ones with icons when you are clearing each page. Should take less time than making new threads.

I wanna save any from Provoke/Vnzi (lots of history) and from Rivergrey (A friend of mine on here who died, got hit by a car)

Rivergrey was an alt.

Both people hold a pretty special place in my heart, and deleting our messages almost feels like I'm deleting memories

SO save them somewhere.

Sure, there are other habitable planets, nearly habitable planets, and similar solar systems. There is probably at least one other solar system which almost perfectly resembles ours.

But Kepler is nearly out of commission currently. The focusing wheels have failed. NASA recently published a plan to fix the problem by using solar wind pressure against its solar panels to shift the telescope's focus, but it's not going to be as good as building a replacement telescope or sending up a team to fix the problem wheels.

And even if we did find a planet exactly like ours, or signs of a civilization, the impact of those findings could damage society. Or it might be impossibly distant. Or else.

What if we discover that most planets don't survive the birth of the solar system? What if we discover that all habitability had been eradicated on Earth, and that it just suddenly "appeared" here on a dead planet? What if our research legitimizes religious claims?

Society isn't ready for that. We can barely handle visiting the moon, internet, and GMO crops.

This cause must be timeless, spaceless, immaterial, personal, and incredibly powerful. Much like God.

P.1 Virtual particles can exist without a cause within the Universe

Virtual particles are caused by the rules of probability acting upon energy within the Universe. Their cause is energy. They are probabilistically caused. This is different to them having no cause.

It's significant because it means they don't work within the cause-effect structure of reality. They are created or destroyed independent of local events in a way which can be described only by probability. This may be the result of something else, but it's definitely not the result of a known.

P.2 Anything outside the a Universe is currently untestable

P.3 Rules for the creation of the Universe may be causeless or not definable with Universe dependent rulesets such as cause-and-effect

Your objections assume that you have to test the first premise of my argument. But really it is based not only on scientific reasons, but also on a priori analysis of the nothingness which existed before the begnning of the universe. The nothingness must have become something through causes as this is the most simple thing to assume happened to nothing to create something, and the simplest explanation of a thing X is usually the correct explanation of X.

Actually, my objections start with "this guy is wrong" and go from there.

We don't know that there was 'nothingness' before the Universe. All we know is that the Universe originated from a point of extreme density. However, we have proven that constituent particles can arise from what is testable as "nothingness".

Where is the proof of God?

God is an authorship character and plot device in a book which was written by people who didn't have a fundamental grasp of the world around them, much less Cosmology.

The Bible contains many truths (such as the Earth being round and things being made of atoms) that didn't exist beforehand.

It's not shocking to me that a book which has been updated, adapted, and re-translated over the course of history would contain scientific truths which had green calculated by ancient cultures thousands of years before the current versions hit the shelves.

Big ticket items get marked down from the prices they had been raised to all year, and you're paying just a little. It above the suggested retail price to get an outdated product!

That's $451 million that could be spent on something more important. It's small in the grand scheme of things but it is another multimillion-dollar unnecessary exspense that we could do without.

Just imagine the money we could be saving if we cut out little things like this.

You have to think about the services they provide though. NPR provides an unbiased look at current events on Radio. PBS provides educational programs for every age group. Small groups like the CPB do a lot with the little they have and still have to beg for donations from the public every year to make ends meet.

Why cut something that's less than half a billion dollars when we have groups like Military Expenditure. They spend $300 billion dollars a year and much of it comes down to paying people to stay in shape, get drunk every weekend, buy fast cars, and go to school. Anyone who is in the military will tell you how much intentional waste there is, literally burning millions of dollars of new equipment in bonfires to force purchasers to keep buying shipments.

Oldest riddle in the world.

but there are 2 they could both be from the village of liers

Same answer. If they are both from the village of the liars and always lie, they will always point away from their own village to the village of the truth telling people. Even if there are two of them.

If they are both from the Village of Liars, they could conspire to confuse you or intentionally misdirect you to the Village of Liars by pointing to their Village.

Pull out your cell phone and look it up with Google Maps. Invite them both to come with you. Everyone should live in the Village of Truth Tellers.

What Is Reddit?

I tried to find a video of how 4chan works, but all I found was this.

At 11/28/13 01:02 PM, Chdonga wrote: Reddit is 4chan for people who are too young or emotionally sensitive for 4chan.

Huh? They're not even the same type of site.

4chan as a whole is like the comments section within certain subreddits. It's an imageboard which ranks things based on how many people reply to it. The strong anonymity results in a giant hivemind that refuses change. The producr is a long list of comments you have to scroll through to find anything you enjoy, meaning you see a lot of mindless babble while wasting time.

Reddit is like a compromise between a Search Engine, an Encyclopedia, and a Social Network. It has customizable structure, an infinite number of categories, and people with different levels of maturity don't even need to interact. If you like something with one category, you can read only in that category, or set up a multireddit, or change your subscriptions. If you like one person's posts, you can browse their comments and submissions with a few different sorting methods. You can vote on everything, judge people by karma, judge links by karma, or whatever you want.

Fucking worlds apart. I could understand how someone who only reads shit like AdviceAnimals, Aww, f7u12, and Funny might think 4chan and Reddit are similar.

You aren't paying for the shoes, you're paying to be one of the people to wear the shoes. It's conspicuous consumption.
