you just don't understand the way the system works. You need to make it illegal to smuggle stuff in so even more people are sent to jail, thus increasing your free labor centers' profit.
Well there's a few things. No one said that the speed of light is an absolute constant. If matter from the big bang expands at the speed of light in opposite directions, then it's plausible that you can only see what's moving in your approximate direction. Has anyone ever discussed the size of the big bang? What if it started with enough energy to fill a space of a few light years?
what does it have to do with this world? multiverse cannot be science, it's talking about unobservables.
if we entertain the thought of multiverse, we might as well entertain the thought of a God. what's the difference?
Ohh you mean like dark matter, the big bang theory, string theory, the god particle, comet extinction theory, or even evolution? All of them are theories. Theories try to explain something that may or not be observable. They're made because there's a problem of why something happens that isn't very straightforward. A lot of times they're wrong, but that's also part of scientific progress.
lambasting the science tag this is filed under. Just because a physicist claims something doesn't make it scientific. This would mean it's the complete opposite which is disproving unscientific beliefs.
wow. You can't disprove intelligent design, people have faith in it which is not scientific nor something that can be reasoned with. This should not be on slashdot. Some people might think that disproving lunacy is actually news.
could be that since water only exists in permanently dark areas it could of been collected from solar winds over the course of billions of years? What makes you think it was there since creation? Also the fact that deep compressed rock in the earth contains more water than there is in all the oceans, the same process would occur on the moon.
Are you suggesting that companies should gift them home computers instead? O that's right, you want to cut costs by mandating employees buy tools needed to do their own jobs. Sounds like a plan, pay everyone like a consultant accordingly. Woops, there goes your savings.
ohh, so he's getting tutored by all the fraudulent investment bankers and upper management staff from Enron and the like? This kid as a bright future ahead of him then.
So in your definition where does being a smart person come into play with that? A badly run company is where flaws can be pointed out, talked about, discussed and agreed upon but no action is taken and the same mistakes are repeated over and over, costing the money productivity and time. It's when the managers do not listen and do things their own way at the expense of time and money. It's when there is no feedback loop for improvement. It's when management is out of touch with reality, or stupid people who do a bad job are continuously promoted within the company while the person who does all the work receives no acknowledgment for his work or participation.
Heretics don't happen overnight. You're really simplifying things if you think people wake up one day hating what they do and who they work for.
I know, i was thinking, all smart people fall under these 3 categories because the person who came up with it is a complete retard. Can't treat people as individuals so i have to generalize the "smart ones" into stupid bins that don't really fit them or what they do. I guess i've never heard of a smart person who has enough social skills to keep his mouth shut when it's important to and get his work done on time and be aware of his surroundings enough to know when disaster is going to strike and even comes up with plans so he can look like a hero every time? Right, cuz you hire smart retards because that's what you're comfortable with.
This imaginary Mrecury sounds like a great place to live. What happens when, lets say, the rail needs maintenance or is damaged and needs to be repaired? The whole population gets cooked and then new people can move in once the rail is repaired and get free fried chicken? Sounds awesome.
ohh, so democracy is giving people the choice of a douche or a turd sandwich. They both suck, might as well know the dirt on both so they won't be misled.

I think the point was there shouldn't even be a groping option. There's absolutely no need for it.
The inside of a run away reactor and the outside should provide sufficient heat difference to run a sterling engine.
The comments in that link are golden.
No more fiat (or in this case, fiat-esque because it lacks a govement) money. We need physical-backed money.
I don't care if it's gold or doughnuts, just no more fake currency.
How about bottlecaps?
That Google disconnects the MPAA from existence.

hahahahaahhahaahhaha
no.
How about trying to get a job if you were accidentally added to this new database?
How about adding someone you didn't like to the list?
Or you know, why not rely on the immediately family to determine when someone in it needs help?

I heard you can also put antimatter in a magnetic bottle, cuz no one really knows how magnets work.

But what is the average solar day of Mrecury?
Obviously anything named after cury would be hot.

unless of course the LLC was located in the amazon, brazil. Genius idea!
