I find it ironic that you find the users use of brick is over used, but have no problem with the tech using brick. I'm sure the people of Tell Aswad would find you quaint~
Turns out not properly maintaining you engine can cause you to brick you engine. Same thing, and in high end sports cars, yeah, it can costs 10s of thousands of dollars to fix/replace.
The release in tension will cause it to fly away, but not completely out of the earths gravity well, which means it will return and fall. It won't be that much tension, so it will be back in a few days. However it won't have enough speed for much of a burn up.
So, how to those objects get into an orbit? I meas, you've shot the straight up...then.. what?
And, do you realize how much each launch would cost in power? just hitting a target with a dot at the ranges requires takes power, much less enough energy to actually heat anything., and it needs to stay on for quite some time, as far a lasers go.
While I believe both are possible, I don't think either is practical..at this time, if ever.
No, they HAVE NOT. They have been discussed, but there isn't a solution that doesn't require magic. When the elevator falls, it will be a global catastrophe.
The atmosphere isn't a magic burn up place. At the speeds they will be falling, there won't be any signigicant 'burn up'. Meterao are travelling thousands of miles an hour. It will be STATIONARY*, unlike satellites, space stations, and space shuuttles that revolve around the earth at a high rate of speed.
The strength of the material required to do a space elevator means it's going to have unpredictable results and have a huge negative impact to the rest of the world.
"some would go into Earth orbit" Thus moving willy nilly risking satellites, and even the future of spavce travel...then fall to the earth.
"and a good chunk would be thrown out into interplanetary space.
WHAT? you fail at orbital mechanics.
"countermeasures" Ah, nice.. countermeasures.. such as...? The most common retort is packing it with explosives....but what people like you fail to take into account is that explosives wont reduce the mass. Do you have a different solution?
You need to spend less time at the movies, and more time in a classroom.
But... this probably will not happen. ever. To expensive, to much time , there wont be any 'fast' combat. If we get to the point where we can garner the energy requires for lasers..then are systems will be able to defeat those system. We will have AI, which will build to be optimal solutions and a counter solution, ad the AI will be the same everywhere because there is only 1 optimum solution for every encounter type. Of curse, dynamic changes will happen, but for an AI, the change will be slow and predicted because will will have a lot of time between calculation and real world firing. I mean, milliseconds to maybe 2 seconds.
right now Arial combat will happen in a 100 miles cube. In space, ships will be light minutes away.
The combat on the ground is'r realistic for a space faring races, because we would just drop rocks. very very large rocks.
You proud of yourself for that? hmm? you, think you did something clever, did you? hmm? Is that really how you debate? whe shown to be in a corner, youplay the child molester card do you?
Learn to think, learn to have an intelligent conversation.
citation need. And please don' sight the crappy study with 66 people in it that showed modest adn short term effects. It's only showed medes termporary change AND it was a tine percentage. Morgin od error percenteg.
That said, let me explain how this works:
Lets say flaxseed doss have a large enough effect. A pharmacy company, or chemical company, will find out the exact compound that cause it is. Then either prefect a precise extraction method that ensure a very high probability of the exact same dose, or they will synthesize it. They will determine the optimal dose for age and weight groups. Then they will sell it.
So that the 'natura'l product become part of medicine.
It's not fucking magic.
As for your little comparison between people claiming something is medicine when there really isn't strong evidence and someone selling a box of snacks is fucking stupid. You should be shunned for a week.
Funny, you talk about him clenching his asshole, be clearly you ignorance has made you defensive. Educate yourself, fool.
I would rather the RIAA and MPIAA got completely lock down then industry be allow to run amok.
One means lock down on entertainment, the other means people die.
Plus., you're not really possible to lock down media, so the RIAA will loose anyways.
"(Personally, I refuse to vote for either party, but I know that it's a vain hope that my vote will make any difference.)" Sadly, most third party is much, much worse and deluded.
If you root you iDevice, you void the warranty . Why buy something I have to root, and void my warranty instead of something that does what I want it to?
You sound like some who is trying to make excuse for locking themselves in a cage.
The poster was simply answering a question. He din't come out and say that. It was a response. Civilized peopel have 'conversations' to exchange ideas and concept.
I have no idea why you bring the tasty, tasty Big Mac into this conversation.
It's not, but stupid people have a hard time thinking on the fly so they don't know how to handle the many out of nowhere events that kids seem to surprise on their parent.

You never turn your car off, and then later turn it back on?
What do you think reboot means?

of course it will, it's a battery. The question is, "how LONG to too long"*?
*You can ask my wife... bada bOOM
1000 xp for the first poster who can determine the point of failure they didn't mention.
Yes, it will fall. Stop being stupid.

yeas, because people who will destroy large objects won't do it personally.
Overload the antimatter chamber and take them all with me.
The rest of your life.
commenting that don't show even the most basic understanding of physics, much less orbital mechanics, is astounding.
" more likely, burn up in the atmosphere"

"Big Pharma does NOT repeat NOT want it to be easier to bring new drugs to market"
Please do some research before making your self look so fucking stupid.
" and it would eliminate their competitive advantage over naturopathic medicine"
Ah, so research, science and actually thinking is right out for you, dumbass.
A) Faster the drugs get to market, the more money they make. They have been pushing for faster, and more dangerous, methods for years.
B) naturopathy doesn't work. Feel free to link to a good study.
Good study:
Double Blinded, well controlled, decent sized.

We have, and do. For the vast majority of them, there predictions have been pretty good, overall.

^^^This.
I applaud you, fellow poster. Not only should this post be at 5 informative, you should get a free 5 on your next two posts.
It's not, but stupid people have a hard time thinking on the fly so they don't know how to handle the many out of nowhere events that kids seem to surprise on their parent.
Hint:
For the vast majority of mailer, the person making money is the person who go the companies to buy in.
The great lie of advertising gets more and more exposed.
