as the bible dictates the universe being created by God for man
I think that you're making assumptions about what the Bible actually says.
Earth was made for man.
I'm not a Christian but I know their book. It does not preclude intelligent life elsewhere in the universe, in fact, it might even suggest that there is. John 10:16 mentions "Other sheep" who are "not of this sheep pen(or fold)". Could those other sheep or the other fold refer to non-humans who are not on this planet? It's debatable.
I have always wondered what things were like back in the olden days before they came out with newer, faster modems like my first 2400 baud from MacWarehouse.
And watch entertainment industry lawyers argue in court that shortening the term of subsisting copyrights qualifies as a "taking" that requires "just compensation" pursuant to the Fifth Amendment.
The counter-argument would be that the government isn't "taking" anything by eliminating anything beyond the copyright protections in place at the time of ratification.
I started a fitness regimen almost two years ago because of health issues and oddly enough, not only did I not lose any weight, I gained weight.
I'm stronger than I was at a young man, I'm more muscular than I have ever been and I'm healthier than I have been in years but I learned first hand how exercise alone won't cause any weight loss.
That is precisely how we ended up with Trump as president with Republican majorities in the House, Senate and most state legislatures and Governorships despite Democrats having a lead in voter registration.
Skipping the consensus building phase will cause backlash.
Even now, 20 years late, most American writers and promoters of paleo realize that if they mention cavemen or homonids without caves would have gladly much on ants, grasshoppers, grubs if they were hungry enough, they would loose a fair percent of the readers they are trying to convert. Well, unless you believe paleo people were Kosher.
Locusts (Grasshoppers) are Kosher and Halal. They can be eaten without violation of the, notoriously strict, dietary laws of those two religions.
They almost certainly didn't understand the biochemistry but they knew that people who didn't do it got sick and died earlier than the people who did.
Maybe they explained it as "the will of the gods" or "this is how you prevent the curse of..." but they knew and understood that an unbalanced diet was not good for you.
I think that we all instinctively understand this but this is the first time I have seen it codified in such a way.
I have noticed how some people use what car someone drives or the cost of someone's home as an indicator of their financial status but then there are people who will buy outrageously expensive cars while they live with their parents or people who buy expensive houses but don't have the financial means to buy enough food.

Think positive.

If that was an option why haven't they done it already?
They tried that back in the Late 90s/Early 00s. It doesn't work very well. They need to have them here under the supervision of domestic managers.

This is purely speculative on my part but I would guess it's the latter. Yahoo killed access for 3rd party chat applications some time ago.

The presence of a competing product is a part of what determines something's value.
Ryzen's release will cause the value of Intel's microprocessors to drop.
Corporations should be abolished.
This kind of thinking in uninformed.
How about a law making any profit margin greater than 5% illegal and punishable by prison time?
This has gone from ignorant to ignorant and dangerous.

That's the thing that annoyed me most about Birtherism.
It was an argument about something that didn't make any difference.
It didn't matter where Obama was born. If he was born in Hawaii, Nairobi or on the moon; his mother was a citizen so he was a citizen at birth.
LK
It certainly does mean that he can speak with some authority on whether or not Jewish people were offended by the content.
LK
We did just listen to 8 years of "It's Bush's fault" so a change would be refreshing.
LK
I wish I had mod points, this was funny.
LK
My concern is with someone getting upset at something I post and harassing my employer because of it.
If someone wants to spend money to look into my life on social media, they're going to be disappointed with the mundanity of what they will find.
LK
"Hacker-proof", certainly not.
"Future-proof", probably not but I won't live my life in fear.
LK
I take on a recruitment role a few times a year and I will look for you online.
And you would find me but unless I allow you into my circle, you'd only see the things that I allow strangers to see.

I do my best to keep my personal and professional personas separate.
I share politically incorrect jokes and use profanity on my Facebook page but I would never do anything of the kind on LinkedIn.
I don't even list my employer on my FB profile.

I don't remember distinctly but probably from Slashdot articles.

Last year I got a check for the DRAM Price Fixing settlement. Many years ago, I got a check for the audio CD settlement.
I suspect that I'll get my $80 for this one. It'll probably take a 12-18 months but money is money.
LK
I had not but I took a look at it after seeing your post.
I haven't formed an opinion yet.

Steam roll over them.

Yes, killing people who disagree with you is a good idea. This is why nobody takes the climate cult seriously.
Earlier today, I saw a post accusing Trump supporters of being Nazis and expressing the sentiment that they should all be gassed.

Yes, thank you.

at which time you plug the bung hole
I know there's a priest joke to be made here somewhere...
