eh, I think I could probably get a lot more done and be a lot happier if I didn't have to bother passing, so it would be nice if telling an employer that I'm autistic was as simple as explaining that I'm left handed.
Yes, if you drunk a can of pure LSD, that would probably fuck your world up beyond repair, but that would be because it contains thousands and thousands of doses, and it would cost a fortune. My point in comparing to beer cans is that it would be such an atypical dosage that it's not happening by accident.
A pound of gold. A pound of gold would be 12 troy ounces, which totals to a little bit less than the 16 avoirdupois ounces that would make up a pound of feathers.
One could not practically OD on LSD using any kind of reasonable street dosage. However, it Heroin or alcohol, yes, but there is a huge gap between the effective doses of lethal doses. A lethal dose of LSD would require the equivalent of chugging several hundred beers.
You still need carbs, it's just that your body is capable of turning things other than carbs into carbs. Similarly, we need vitamin D to be fully functional health-wise, and that can come from sunlight or milk. That doesn't mean we don't need Vitamin D.
We've bent over backwards for them already, and they have given us nothing. If this is enough to seriously damage their plans, they are too incompetent to be doing anything in the first place.
It's disingenuous to call a slave a 'worker' because it intentionally leaves out important context. The fact that they were slaves instead of free men is an important thing to understand in a history book.
We've got global monitoring of basically all eletronic communications, and we can't catch jack shit. At this point, I don't care the reason or reasons, they've merely shown that they won't get the job done.
The French were apparently warned by Turkey. Given that governments have been warned about at least 9/11, the Boston bombings, and these Paris attacks. They are NOT obeying the law, and they STILL can't catch anyone that they didn't groom themselves. They are useless.
FBI director James Comey said he was having trouble finding good talent that didn't smoke weed. Also, you're full of shit, as everyone gets high one way or another.
There are plenty of ways to reduce population growth without going authoritarian. For example, educating women, giving them greater equality in regards to career opportunities and social mobility, and access to birth control.
I'd rather we kill the economy than have the economy kill us. However, it's quite likely that green investments could take up a lot of the slack before it starts seriously hurting our lifestyle.
Fewer civilizations means that it takes longer to confirm the existence of other civilizations. Fewer needles in the haystack. Furthermore it's quite likely that many of them are not yet advanced enough to detect other civilizations. We took 3.5 billion years to get radio signals.
1) Edison worship was shoved down our throats for years, so yeah, that's going to happen out of reflex.
2) Edison did a LOT of really fucked up, horrific things, including the things he did to Tesla.
3)/. doesn't care about being an "all-around inventor" in the sense of Edison. It's like a Jobs and Woz comparison, and/. is going to pretty much universally side with Woz because Woz and Tesla were people more like us, and we don't see much value in the ability to be a shrewd businessman. Tesla was a real life mad scientist, and we love that shit.
No, it's stimulating, just much less stimulating than acting. In fact, we know that with mirror neurons, watching someone do something activates the same pathways in the brain as actually doing it. Hence, monkey see, monkey do.
I doubt that they would have such an issue. Keep in mind that most Western countries currently have sub-replacement birth rates, and women have much greater career and education opportunities in Star Trek, as well as far superior birth control.

He made billions, but that's because he started out with a lot of money. His business ventures total to about market averages.

A tenth of the lethal dose is still an insane amount to take. There would be no point in taking anywhere near that much.
Celery already exists, has negative net calories, and tastes better than wood.

Why not eat nutritious food instead?

That doesn't preclude being more more competent than our spies AND ISIS, though.

I think you misspelled Reptilian home planet.

You assume that allowing the NSA/CIA to work is GOOD for national security, when their track record suggests the opposite.
Well, they seem to have been too lenient, seeing as they let such a major attack happen.

It's called a D20. It's been better at making decisions than most CEOs for a while.
