Okay, well, with a cut-down population, you also lose the labor required to produce to support the population. Then labor becomes a short resource. Without a labor reserve, you can't take advantage of technical progress, and so the economy becomes unstable and poverty becomes more wide-spread, rather than the normal model of developing better access to food, clean water, and healthcare as technology improves.
This flies in the face of history. Cut-down populations lead to boom times of reduced poverty and inequality (most notably after the black plague). A terrible way to get a boom time, but that's what happens.
It did a better job showing a calculating dark batman
No, the Dark Knight series showed a calculating dark batman. Batman vs. Superman show's Frank Miller's "Punisher with a cape" Batman. I can accept that it's a different take on the character, but my dad was totally put off the movie by this.
Yes, unfortunately you "true" libertarians have a horde of crypto-corporatocrats hiding behind your flag, who massively outnumber you. I'd suggest picking up a new name. "Libertarian" is probably damaged beyond repair. See also: Progressive/Liberal.
Can't wait to see the FTC introducing rules any day then, to close this loophole, since it's about assigning regulation to the most relevant authority and not selling away every American's privacy. I'll start my waiting clock now. Shouldn't be long right?
I'm pretty sure if you polled voters, even those in red states, they'd mostly be against this.
I wouldn't bet on it. They probably have some conspiracy theory cooked up in their heads to make not-selling your browsing history look like a bad thing. They're mostly against net neutrality, after all, either with the boilerplate "government overreach" argument, or a conspiracy theory about how it's the Fairness Doctrine 2.0.

Meanwhile, coal power plants spew radioactive waste from smokestacks, the ground is pumped full of earthquake-enabling mystery sauce for hydrofracking, and oil refineries guzzle energy to transform fossil fuels from one form to another before they're even used, all while literally causing floods of toxic waste, and nobody on the right bats an eye at those environmental disasters that happen in the process of releasing fossil CO2. They have much bigger problems to worry about - an environmentally unremarkable electronics manufacturing industry that's giving us devices that produce carbon-neutral energy.
I'm not searching for it at work but there is a Chinese company that makes, basically, a medical-grade jack-off machine for sperm sample collection. Basically a fleshlight on a reciprocating mechanism.
It's a standard, procedurally-generated right-wing parroting point that executes in any discussion about $NEW_GREEN_TECH:
"$NEW_GREEN_TECH generates an incredible amount of toxic waste to produce, even more than $OLD_FOSSIL_TECH!"
Veracity is not a factor in the algorithm, the statement is simply generated and echoed. It's interesting how right-wingers suddenly become concerned (if fact-deprived) environmentalists AND income-egalitarians ("The CEO of $NEW_GREEN_TECH company is going to get rich off the backs of the working class!" they scream, as if tax code & labor policy problems are the fault of environmental policy) as soon as fossil energy is threatened.
This is moving control of the issue to the HOA's, and thus the people.
LOL moving the issue from the governments that people can vote for, to HOAs - wholly unaccountable property fiefdoms that you can often only escape by moving to the sticks - is transferring control to "the people?"
And I assume you have something in place to prevent the data on the machine from being encrypted (perhaps steganographically) locally before being sent out? Because otherwise your MITM system will only serve to prevent private information from being accidentally pasted in web forms. It would do nothing against exfiltration by malware or competent intentional leaking.
Most people would agree Climate Change is real. The biggest question is what percent is due to humans and what percent is due to natural cycles. The other big question is how much of the human contribution is from CO2 and how much is from other human causes like deforestation. Current science doesn't have a good answer for these questions.
Bullshit. Here's a good answer for these questions from current science. It's not 100% human caused, but certainly over 90%:
This will be your undoing. If Trump actually achieves what he's promised, you'll be a broke and environmentally and industrially destroyed 3rd-world country before 2020, regardless of whether Trump is still in power by then or not. The giant useless monument to xenophobia standing in the middle of the desert, and ridiculous collection of weapons you couldn't even afford to use will be your Moai. Hopefully, at least other countries would learn from your failure.
The DNC, especially Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, are to blame for making Hillary the D candidate. She's almost as unlikeable as Trump and has almost as many skeletons in the closet. She was astronomically more smart and experienced than Trump, but that has roughly zero value on average to most voters.
Combine with the steeply sloped playing ground of the electoral college and the result shouldn't have been a surprise. For the Democrats to win, they have to bring their A game and hope that the Republicans don't. This time the Democrats brought out a benchwarmer and the Republicans put some gear on a drunken fan and sent him out. That's not enough of an overwhelming advantage.

That's a lot of words to say "Killbots FTW, suck it peasants!"

I'm not an American but if I were, it could have been. Not that having rights for a short time is any excuse for taking them away.
If you think that was a disaster, buckle up...

The mainstream of the Dems and GOP is the same party - the Deep State.
Almost LOL'ed in a quiet office.
Don't fall for the extreme-izing, the other-ing of these guys. They both have a lot of support from mainstream America
Trump's at what, 37% now? The mainstream sure is small...
Most of the waste can indeed be recycled:

This is going to be a boon for HOA directors who will all demand some palm grease from AirBnB to operate in their realms, similar to the situation with broadband in apartment buildings.
Tahoe-LAFS can be configured to distribute data in a RAID-0-like manner such that there is no redundancy.
Sounds like Tahoe-LAFS.
