There was a story a few years back on a guy that decided to bike across the 50 states, know how long it took him with him doing NOTHING but that 9+ hours a day? Nearly 8 YEARS.
Also, I'm pretty sure Google would be required to do this at their own expense.
This is the part that annoys me the most. Why the folks at MAFIAA think they are entitled anyone else's money and time? Why it should be anyone else's obligation to further raise the obscene amount of money they already make?
It would change international relations as oil would no longer be nearly so important except as a lubrication fluid, and even that can be mostly done with renewable resources like corn oil or other vegetable stock sources.
Petroleum isn't used just to produce fuels & lubricants. Plastic, asphalt, fertilizers... many other products are derived from oil. There are ways to manufacture oil, but it needs a large energy input -- if the cold fusion scenario you are talking about came true (unlikely) it would become feasible so your point stands.
You know, GP isn't that far from the truth. Between your stupid War on Drugs, meddling in other countries' internal affairs, installing petty puppet dictators... US of A really is/was a hindrance to the stability of Latin America.

Eventually, Malthus will be right.
Eventually, the universe will reach heat death where all useful energy has been used.
That's not going to happen.
You're wrong
...and then there were no remaining AOL users.
So... September finally ended?
It's one less hurdle for anyone who wants to abuse a nationwise genetic database - such as the insurance companies, eugenists and the police.
Nationwide? I thought this decision applied only to people going under arrest

That's the proverbial snail's pace I guess
First, you have zoning. City fathers decreed that you must work in one zone, buy your groceries in another, and sleep in third.
Maybe those city fathers played too much SimCity in their time?
If you don't own the server, you don't own anything you uploaded there

Care to further elaborate?
Way to miss a joke huh
Of course Gandalf is The One True Lord. Worshipping of Harry Potter and Yoda is a serious, serious sin... repent!!

A competent programmer has (or hasn't) already done this with a quantum computer.

You just summarized my feelings on the subject for the last 12 years, thanks :)
Why complicate everything, when you can just go to a bar & exaggerate on the booze, pick someone, fsck all night then regret it later?! :)
What are the benefits of using GNU/Hurd 2013?
There aren't any.
Then maybe we should start calling it GNU/Turd
I disagree. A few do learn Spanish, but most learn English as a second language.
Nothing screws up good sex like a second (or more) person.

I don't want anyone counting my drinks either.
How will you pay your bill on your way out then? :)
Of course, that would be reasonable, and remove most people over 60 from driving.
And (sorry geezers out there) that would be fucking awesome
My current favorite is 16! Characters
By the time you finished typing it the first time, I bet your beard grew more than ten meters!
The man wasn't convicted yet. It would be unfair (as well as illegal in a few places) to deny him a fair chance at employment.
