What exactly is wrong about practicing survival skills? I think you're assuming that people do this for pleasure, but maybe it's just practice. There are a lot of scenarios that having some time practicing survival skills can be a matter of life and death. But you went ahead and assumed that it's just for fun. Good for you.
Bow hunting is for people who want to practice archery in a practical way. Boo fucking hoo it hurts the animals. It gives out basic survival skills that even in this day and age are important to know. For whatever reason if humanity gets knocked back into the stone age who is going to survive? The hunter who knows how to craft their own bows/arrows and use them or the one who only ethically kills with a gun? Stop imposing your own set of morals and ethics on everyone else. There's reasons why people practice this form of hunting for a hundred thousand years. The human race would of gone extinct if they sat around thinking of a way to survive while also making sure it was painless.
so if i was to believe that reason, that would mean their entire staff was comprised of graphic artists who all focused on creating overly complicated textures. The reality of it is that there are separate teams working on separate things. If they were directed to make the game very details, it's the fault of the managers. However the game failed for many many other reasons. The biggest one being: It was not fun.
On the moon all the materials you can find on earth will be available. Water, minerals, lots of sunlight, microgravity. By burying the habitats you can defend from micro meteor impacts and most radiation. You can manufacture space ships for interplanetary travel once you have manufacturing capacity and then launch them using a space elevator into orbit for extremely low cost. The poles of the moon can serve as a much better research/space telescope area than anywhere in orbit. There's a million and one reasons to put a base on the moon for manufacturing capability. Orbit needs lots of shielding, has no raw materials, is 100% dependent on the earth for resources. It makes 0 sense for manufacturing. For a staging area it makes sense, but the moon can do that and so much more.
They're not going to collect it They won't be sending out signals to the police They won't be sending out data to your insurance companies They won't be collecting data for accident coverage They won't be storing the data and combining it in other databases (ohh you just went to the gym? You just came back from your mistress's place and were tired?) They won't be selling it to your health insurance provider (xx was driving tired for extended periods of time, must have some disease, drop coverage immediately) Sorry, there's too many reasons why not to get it and very little reason to get it.

I thought underground water being stored in molten rock material was already proved during russia's borehole experiment: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K... "To scientists, one of the more fascinating findings to emerge from this well is that no transition from granite to basalt was found at the depth of about 7 km, where the velocity of seismic waves has a discontinuity. Instead the change in the seismic wave velocity is caused by a metamorphic transition in the granite rock. In addition, the rock at that depth had been thoroughly fractured and was saturated with water, which was surprising. This water, unlike surface water, must have come from deep-crust minerals and had been unable to reach the surface because of a layer of impermeable rock.[8]
Another unexpected discovery was the large quantity of hydrogen gas; the mud that flowed out of the hole was described as "boiling" with hydrogen"
Are you going to say they rediscovered this? This was known back in the 80s.
Basic literacy and numeracy is indoctrination now? I think your tinfoil hat's a little tight. The method to teach basic literacy and numeracy (I'd rather use basic math, but whatever) IS in fact indoctrination when you flat out toss past concepts in favor of new ones. Are you trying to say that before core competency came out that everyone else who learned the old methodologies exhibited problems of learning the material? Was there a problem that this new method tries to solve? It's my understanding (not from study, please feel free to correct/quote studies which prove otherwise) that basic math and reading skills was a problem that was tackled and for the most part solved. This new foreign way to teach students how to do basic math, what problem does that solve? Is it in fact easier to to it this way to split the problem into several subset problems and combining them together? Or is this politically driven hand waving at a new solution to a problem that was in fact not a problem at all just to say "something" was tackled and solved?
Because the people are dead and the destruction has been done and is over. The meltdown is ongoing and will affect the region for a lot longer than the tsunami ever could. It also highlights not the threat of nuclear power, but the threat of politics and nuclear power combined make. That plant should have been shutdown for years, a new one should have been built using upgraded technology. But thanks to politics, that wasn't done and they extended the reactor for many more years than it was made to be operational for. The same problem exists here in the US.
smart phones aren't used for status symbols. They're used to help navigate, communicate, find information and provide entertainment. Telling people not to use them in public is removing the whole point of taking a mobile computing device with you. I recommend instead of blaming the victims, you beat the thieves to death as a deterrent.
Last time i checked, water is a renewable resource. Fresh water is a problem, but just focus on desalinization and bringing in fresh water from the oceans. You literally can't run out.
Law and theory certainly do have a distinct meaning. And that is theories are made to be broken and usually have some cases where it fails. Therefore a better theory to explain reality will come up after some time.
Look for industries where you can be a systems analyst instead of a software engineer. Software engineer is working on the same products/problems/frameworks day in and day out. Sure new problems/challenges are fine, but it gets old and boring. There's constant pressure to churn out code, meet unrealistic deadlines and perform up to some management made up performance levels. System analysts take a look at problems and systems and create solutions. Whether the solutions are tools/utilities, products or anything in between in multiple different frameworks/languages. There is practically hundreds of industries which can utilize your knowledge of creating software to good use. Look for anything flexible honestly. Software engineering positions want you to become a robot. Look for things that you don't have to learn something completely new but gives you the opportunity to learn new things and tackle new problems.
You see, with fusion more applications can exist that require high energy consumption. You can't power rockets with solar energy. You can't even power cars with only solar. You need an energy storage device. You won't with fusion. Solar power basically requires batteries. Fusion does not. You realize that panel production and battery production requires a ton of oil to produce and is not clean by any means. Fusion would drive energy prices less than nuclear ever could. You would also find a reason with fusion to go out into space and explore/exploit with finding He3 to power advanced fusion.
It won't prevent anyone from reselling them. Cell phones can be broken down to parts and resold regardless of any kill switch that might be put in. You can't kill switch a led screen.
But they are recorded as soon as they step out of their house. CCTV is everywhere. And guess what, eye have been recording images in people's brains for millions of years. That's never going to change. The idea of people seeing what you're doing and remembering it won't change, what's the problem with people recording it in a device as well? It's their line of sight.
If people cared about privacy, they would object to being recorded by private entities. It's just that they have no choice to accept it, but assault someone for recording them? Easier to pick on a single person than a culture.
So in the future, when both parents object and their 4 year old daughter is separated from them and then intimidated into agreeing to let people search the family's home, does that still sound like a reasonable loophole that only exists to be abused?
The correct way would be if anyone objects, no searches can be done without warrant. In fact, no searches should be done without warrant ever. If there is a strong need, feel free to get your search order approved by a judge.
It's not reasonable to be intimidated into doing anything.
Honestly and foremost: This applies to government making laws/regulations that were discriminatory. This did not apply to individuals making discriminatory decisions.
