Now you on to some serious fire-power in the form of mass drivers (A mass driver or electromagnetic catapult is a proposed method of non-rocket space launch which would use a linear motor to accelerate and catapult payloads up to high speeds.) No need for explosives of any kind just dense payload and enormous speed produces enormous damage at the other end regardless of the type of material standing in the way. Everything Smashed including machines!
Some beliefs are more offensive than others such as Hogan's Heroes(look it up children if you don't know what it was) was an accurate portrayal of a Nazi concentration camp You have to wonder what possessed someone to put this material in a comedy format??
Why are we still fucking around with this asinine argument??? Get on with your life,believe what you want to believe and leave this tired old argument in peace.
"
Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a man's mind"- Orange Catholic Bible- Dune Series
"The target of the Jihad was a machine-attitude as much as the machines," Leto said. "Humans had set those machines to usurp our sense of beauty, our necessary selfdom out of which we make living judgments. Naturally, the machines were destroyed."[6]-God Emperor of Dune
"Man may not be replaced."-The Butlerian Jihad a.k.a. The Great Revolt
use of technology trains humans to think like machines. The problem is that machines are deterministic; thus, training people to be machines is self-limiting. Herbert seemed to think that to be human is to be essentially 'open-ended', capable of undiscovered, indeterminate evolution, both personally and as a species.- Heidegger's thesis.-
Over to you human race.
Slashdot a product review and best deals site? What next Fruit and Vegetable sales?
Slashdot was once a repository of great tech info doled out by Tech snobs now its so down
market it reads like its being produced in a basement by work experience interns
A sad sad sad day.
PS
I am looking for a good home delivery service............
We developed stealth tech for military use so the enemy would not see our attack until it was too late so what if an advanced civilization took it a step further and developed the ability to cloak their civilization so as to make it more difficult to detect ? It makes sense because not seen it to be safe from possible Predators and prying eyes such as ours. Why attract unnecessary attention no matter how long it takes to get to you.and besides we hardly understand ourselves let alone anything else that might be out there in the big wide Universe.
Star Trek led economic revolution? Wait, aren't these the same people who won't allow genetic modification to prevent genetic based diseases because Ricardo Montablon or Benedict Cumberbatch turned up as some freaky super human(dubious science at best) due to misguided eugenics experiments so they allow people in the future to still suffer these diseases because someone in the past made a boo boo? Thats like saying because Atomic weapons were developed and deployed in WW2 we discard the whole field of nuclear medicine because someone might blow up the world!! What a load of nonsense This way of thinking precludes humanity learning from it's mistakes and learning how to use the technology in a more productive way
I wouldn't worry about Trekonomics until we get our moral compass aligned correctly otherwise while people are worrying about their reputation score others will be begging just to survive due to fixable genetic impairments and cursing the name Montablon and Cumberbatch
Its sad that an industrial accident has a link to the promotion of a Hollywood science fiction film about killer robots from the future.
A tenuous link at best maybe? An unintentional link?,possibly but it just seems to too much of coincidence which is sad to say the
least.
Whats surprising about the Gates inspired "Think Tank: K-12 CS Education Cure For Sagging US Productivity"? The guy was a techno thug in his previous incarnation as head of Microsoft where under his leadership the windows OS was preloaded onto Pcs and shoved down the throats of all and sundry creating a monopoly that raked in millions over a many years aided by complicit regulators who didn't have the guts to stare down the Microsoft behemoth when they had a chance to correct the situation when they finally called Microsoft to account for their monopolistic behavior.and abuse of power.
Then Gates 2.O The second coming of Saint Bill and Melinda the foundation years or Techno thug wants to be loved.
Now using the money gained form his old Microsoft Techno thug bully boy days of taking over companies he wants to be known as saint Bill the good guy helping the world become a better place by feeding our young into his CS Education machine to keep the good times rolling but for who?
Once a techno thug always a techno thug!
Bring back Millennium Carter it was better than the X-Files by Galaxy!
What about this campaign to bring back Millennium being waged through Facebook and lance henriksen asking you over and over to make a movie out of Millennium but no answer from you!! You instead bring back the X-files hey and lets not talk about Harsh Realm, no one else is! X-Files become a convoluted joke but you stated Millennium while still making X-Files then could cope and handed over to Morgan and Wong (your best writers from the X-Files) to produce the second season of Millennium while you went back to the X-Files then came back for the third season of Millennium complaining your show had been hijacked and taken in an unintended direction damaging it viewer wise.. Original X-Files,too long,too drawn so became a pile of uninteresting garbage.
You either expect and demand scientists work to a high standard or you let any old crap be classed as acceptable and then expose people to that standard of work!
Thalidomide anybody?
One of the common misconceptions is that atrocities such as The Holocaust were carried out by crazy/mentally unstable monsters who were biological aberrations that were the exception not the rule. Sadly that just does not pan out in real life as the same Nazi officers who directed the extermination camps went home each night often to families where they became the loving doting father who cared deeply about their wife and children but separate from their day job of gassing and burning Jewish citizens.. Normal looking people with families who committed acts of extreme barbarism in a cold logical manner but obviously not devoid of compassion and love as they raised families while some how reconciling this love for family with aggressive participation in the running of the death camps.
Aggression in itself may not be the enemy but the reason behind the aggression is what we have to understand and deal with as aggressive actions are often not carried out by wide eyed mad men but by clear thinking coldly logical people who believe they are right and attract like minded people to their cause along with the freaks and crazies who become the highly visible examples of the aggression but are often not it's guiding light.
We must understand ourselves before we can understand the stranger in our midst and invite him to the table.
This Amoeba is like a tank,uncomplicated and ugly but it gets the job done and is hard to stop becalms it doesn't have any obvious fatal weaknesses so any powerful concoction designed to blast it's way through this biological Tank will hurt the host as well unless tightly targeted at the Amoeba.so as to avoid collateral damage.
The other possibility(although an ugly one) is that drug companies are not in a hurry to find a cure because this problem occurs in low social economic populations who desperately need their help but can't pay for it so big Pharma drags its feet and decides to find a cure for cellulite instead because its more profitable.
Welcome to the 21st Century a sweet romantic place...........
Wait just one abbreviated minute;
Tutankhamen,DNA, excavate and the Muslim Brotherhood!!!
I smell Disney,Theme Park and Harrison Ford!
Don't say I didn't give you the insider(oops)inside tip!
Wink, Wink,Nudge,Nudge! Say no more.
The Ukraine is going through a difficult time with Putin but, if Putin had taken a leaf out of the diplomatic play book of Josef Stalin then the Ukraine would have been pulverized by the full force of the Soviet military machine and Stalin would have ticked of his to do list as problem solved so things could be worse.
